I was bought this palette for Christmas and it was my first foray into Sleek eyeshadows. I had heard a number of things about them good or bad and I was really excited to try this.
This palette contains 12 shadows in total with 9 shimmers and 3 mattes and I have to say the shimmers are amazing. They are very highly pigmented, easy to blend and do not fall out at all. The combination here means a number of different looks can be created and I adore that beautiful green on the bottom row.
There is one place where this palettes falls down: The Mattes. These are a little chalky and do fall out a tiny bit, I certainly feel there are better high street Mattes out there. They blend fairly well but I just can not forgive the chalkiness.
There is a large mirror in the palette that makes it perfect for touching up and great for travelling - I have already used it for one night away.
These can be bought from Boots and Superdrug and they only cost £7.99, which I feel is a massive bargain. If you just leave the mattes out you still have 9 great shimmer shades and I would gladly buy another Sleek Palette.
Wow, looks like a great deal. The colors are so pretty and they look pretty pigmented as well.
