Review/Haul: Sleek Makeup

Posted on January 2, 2012 | Leave a comment

I posted a video today of my Sleek Makeup Haul, and I said I would do some swatches, So here they are!!

First Up is the iDivine, Storm Palette.

I really like this palette. It is great for everyday…Below are swatches (Applied over UDPP {Original Formula}). If you have fair skin, the first 5 colors in the palette may not show up too well.

Next is the Contour Face Kit, which I completely forgot to swatch…LOL

But this is my absolute favorite out of everything that I purchase. It is very pigmented works very well. If you a beginner at highlighting and contouring, this is a great kit to start out with.

Lastly is the Berry Collection!! Which I LOVE as well!!

This was a great collection,I love redish kind of colors and makeup, especially when it comes to blush. This blush reminds me of MAC’s Razin, but costs have the price. I don’t believe these colors are in the permanent Collection.

From Left to Right:  True Colour lipstick in Cranberry,  Kohl Pencil in Mossberry, Fenberry blush.

I definitely LOVE my ENTIRE purchase…I will definitely be ordering from  Sleek Makeup again really soon.

**Disclaimer: I was not contacted by said company to review this product. Everything was purchased with my own money. I am not affiliated with this company and not paid to make this review. These are my honest thought and opinions.
