Sleek Cosmetics!

[LisaOrestea]

I was just on their website and I saw that they offer tester palettes of all the creme to powder foundation shades. I think that is an awesome idea! Has anyone tried this foundation before?

I'm doing bridesmaids makeup at a friends wedding, but as Im not a proper MUA I don't have a particularly wide range of foundation shades (I have what suits me haha). This could be a really nice solution to this problem as they seem to do a really broad range of colours. I don't wanna have to get loads of different full sized foundations just for the one day

I just got 2 palettes from Sleek this week. The Chaos and Bad Girl palette. The mirror in the Chaos palette was shattered im waiting for a replacement. The Bad Girl palettle is smokey eyes love!!!
Im glad this is permanant as I would have to get a 2nd if it wasnt

Sleek is by fair my favorite drugstore line, they come in gorgeous colour ranges and they are highly pigmented. I have all the pallets so far and the loose pigments. I love the whole line to be honest and it is so affordable I cannot say no.

I'm hearing that their Scandalous LE blush is a dupe for NARS Exhibit A.

Has anyone seen the new primer palette that's coming out? Anyone planning to buy it?

I spotted it in Superdrug today. It was £6.99

There's a review here http://makeupwonderland.blogspot.com/2011/02/sleek-makeup-idivie-primer-palette.html

 

[LisaOrestea]

I reviewed it on my blog: http://thefacechronicles.blogspot.com/

I do actually quite like it. It performed much better than I expected.

I bought my first palette in "Original" a few weeks back and I LOVE it. It was only 6.49 pounds, and the colors are gorgeous and super pigmented! I'm already considering getting the Storm palette, but I already have my NYX Palettes in Smokey Eyes and Champagne & Caviar. I'm at a dilemma!

I saw the new primer palette in Superdrug, but I'm kind of iffy about them. They're not very pigmented and have a sticky feel to them, and they seem like they would crease. In actuality... they didn't really impress me - they seemed to lip gloss formulas, but eyeshadow colored. Also, I still have half the tube of my UDPP and a new professional size one to go through.

 

[LisaOrestea]

They are rubbish as actual primers. I used them over top of UDPP as coloured bases to help with vibrancy.

I like the look of the Primer palette but I dount I will be buying them. Unless of course I read a fab review

I wasn't sure if I had been able to collect all of them, but I guess I officially have all of the eyeshadow palettes, except for the primer palette which I'm not too keen about. They truly blow every other brand I've tried out of the water in terms of pigment and vibrancy. Next up for my collection will be their blushes. I only have one so far, but I love it. Just wish shipping to the US wasn't so ridiculous.

I just received the primer palette in the mail today! swatched it & its very creamy & pigmented esp for dark colours.got to try how well it holds up on lids soon!

 

[keetuh]

I thought Sleek Cosmetics doesn't even ship to the US? The only way I've been able to get my hands on 2 palettes was from a blog sale.

 

[mae13]

They do ship to North America. =) http://www.sleekmakeup.com/EN/index.aspx http://www.sleekmakeup.com/en/delivery-and-returns.aspx The shipping cost is 13.50$. I dunno, that doesn't sound like a lot to me, but I'm used to Canada Post. In comparison it would be 35$ to ship anything to the UK.

 

[bowbandit]

I havent ever tried these, but I want to quite badly. They aren't available here.

 

[DILLIGAF]

I'm actually looking to get my hands on the new palette. The Paraguaya palette is calling to me. However if I'm going to spend $13.50 on shipping I would want more then just one palette.

i was lucky enough to see all of the upcoming collections and products yesterday.
some new neutrals! theres a whole collection called 'in the nude'. theres an i-divine, pout polish and a blush which is like a deeper nars sex appeal but of the same tone. the i-divine will be perfect for a brown smokey look. not sure of the release date yet.

oh so special i-divine, to be released september 2011. this is BEAUTIFUL. all warm browns and peaches.

sleek's version to touche eclat, luminaire concealer/highlighter. comes in 4 shades and will work well as an undereye concealer imo as it has pigment to it as well as lightening.

the caribbean collection, again with an i-divine, pout polish and blush. the pout polish and blush are orange . set to release over the summer.


the meditereanean collection (sorry i can't spell haha). the pout polish and blushes are NEON pink. the i-divine has got some gorgeous turquoise shades . another summer collection, although i think this comes before caribbean.


they're also releasing their own version of occ lip tars, which come in a tube at least 2x bigger and there is a white for mixing. i was able to try these and they feel and wear just as the lip tars do, and i'm sure will be alot cheaper, released in september i believe. they've also expanded the range to 30 foundation colours and now i match fudge instead of calico. they've also created more lipsticks, expanding the true colour range into two formulas (matte and sheen) and they've also introduced nude and pale shades which i was excited.
i luckily received the meditereanean collection and 4 new lipsticks amongst other things, so will swatch those soon .

Looks like some good things are coming from Sleek. That neutral palette and the Caribbean palette are lovely. All of the blushes look great! Something to look forward to. Thanks for sharing!!
