I seriously cannot contain my excitement! I'm supposed to post my review on Caudalie Paris Vinoperfect Night Correcting Cream tonight but I decided to post it tomorrow instead because of this one. That's how excited I am. Anyway, a surprise came in the mail today though I was expecting to receive it tomorrow - and it's my Sleek Divine Mineral Based Eyeshadow Palette in Bad Girl! I was choosing between the Original Palette and this one but I figured that the former has more neutral shades that I am not into so it then became an easy decision for me. So without further adieu, I present to you Bad Girl.
It is indeed sleek. The packaging is very minimalist - a black matte non-rubberized compact.
I literally gasped when I opened the palette as the 12 colours are just as gorgeous as I expected them to be. I also like how the protective film has all the shades written on it.
First Row (L-R): Innocence, Gullible, Blade, Gun Metal, Underground, Noir Second Row (L-R): Intoxicated, Envy, Obnoxious, Abyss, Twilight, Rebel |
Swatches with base
I played with the palette right away, before my mom even took the palette and tried it on herself. XD
I used the following shades: Innocence (to highlight inner corners and brow bones); Gullible (as base applied all over the lids); Abyss (outer half, crease); and Envy (to line upper lash lines) |
I like this palette and I'm planning to try out other palettes too. Maybe I'd try Original next since I am satisfied with this one. They are pigmented, non-chalky and not powdery either, creamy, and blends easily. I also have my eyes set on the lippies and a couple of blushes. I hope Digital Traincase stocks up on her Sleek palettes so a lot of us can finally try these much-raved palettes. Expect to see more EOTDs since I now have more colours to play with.
How about you? Have you tried Sleek palettes? What are your favorites?
Happy Tuesday, super awesome peeps! :P
Cheers,
BI!!! Haha I have been on a no buy for more than 3 months now girl!!! And its payday this Thursday =))
ReplyDeleteLooks like I'll be trying out these sleek palettes!
Thanks for the review and swatches!
@K I have't been buying much lately as well, was on a no-buy mode for more than a month until recently. Well, think of getting Sleek palettes as gifts or as a reward for being a good girl for 3 months. :P
ReplyDeleteI was actually eyeing on them on Digital Traincase but I was thinking twice and thrice... until everybody got it!!! Hahahaha... So there, will wait till the next stocks come up. They sure are really pretty! :D
ReplyDeletexoxo,
LoveSkinBest
@Maria I have hooded lids and the crease is barely visible. Trial and error + watching tutorials + patience lang. I'm sure you can rock those palettes. :)
ReplyDeleteIn case wala pa din, we're here and we're willing to be adoptive mommies. Haha! Do a blog sale! :P
Yay for this Pammy! Innocence, Gullible, Envy and Abyss look great on you! Coz of this post, i suddenly remembered my sleek original palette... :D
ReplyDelete@Myrted Haha! I knew I had to decide in like a minute or less so I just typed in MINE! without a lot of thinking. Haha! No regrets though. I hope she stocks up soon. :)
ReplyDelete@herroyalbleakness Yey! Play with them na, Argie and do EOTDs too! :P

I've been wanting the Sleek Oh So Divine Palette for a while now. I've tried the curacao palette from Shopcoholic (khymm) and damn their eyeshadows are just awesome! You look lovely with the blue shadows. :)
ReplyDeletewow! i love the shades of your new palette.. I don't have my Coastal Scents palette with me na (I gave it to my best friend) so I'm looking for another versatile palette. Thanks for the review! I'll check this out :)
ReplyDeletethat's a really gorgeous palette!
ReplyDeletei haven't try any sleek palettes but in sure that once my eyeshadow lemming goes back, that is the first one i'll be buying then the UD ones..
XD
I still can't decide which Sleek palette is my favorite, they are all so gorgeous! Great look, I love me a deep dark smokey eye (:
ReplyDeleteI love this palette!!!! ONE and only tong palette ko which I got from a contest! Sana super readily available na siya locally..as in easy to reach sana! :)

ReplyDelete@Maya Sophia You gotta try at least one palette! They're seriously pigmented. Rebel is a lovely shade. :)
ReplyDelete@Hollie Thank you. It was in love at first swatch for me. I really do hope Sleek becomes readily available here. :)
ReplyDelete@Crystal Gale Gora! This palette is really nice and so are the others, based on swatches and reviews. ;)
ReplyDelete@~tHiAmErE~ Haha! You'll like this! I seriously can't bring myself to spend that much on UD palettes though. They're just darn too pricey! Kuripot much? :D
ReplyDelete@G A B Y If you love deep, dark, smokey eyes, I think you'll like this! I tried doing a dark smokey eyes last night and it looked okay. :D

ReplyDeleteWaah, I've really been lemming for Sleek stuff lately but didn't see them on Digital Traincase. How much is it? :) Pretty eotd Pammy, I really like the gorgeous deep shade you used. :)
ReplyDeletewow love the palette and your eotd!! pretty^^
ReplyDeleteAng ganda ng palette sarap ternohan ng nude and red lipstick... love your eyes pammy.
ReplyDelete@Ida Haha! Limited stocks lang when she had it so we had to be fast then. The palettes were all taken in just a few minutes or hours. :P It's only Php 550 as compared to those being sold on eBay.ph for 1k!
ReplyDelete@Diane Thank you. I saw you "mine!" Sleek lippies. :P
ReplyDelete@Sweethestia So true! Takot pa ako to try red lips with the colors but I'll try that nga. Haha! Thank you, dear. :)
ReplyDeleteI love this icy blue look on you~ Thank you for the Sleek swatches~
ReplyDeleteI'm not a big eyeshadow user but I always love looking at the colors.
ReplyDeleteI really like the look of Sleek palettes.
Nice eotd and swatches! I love the purply shades. =))
@Jackie I like how it is packaged - sleek indeed. :) I have yet to try the purples but they look nice! :)
ReplyDeleteOh I want to get my hands on a Sleek palette, just no luck so far :) these looks gorgeous but it's so shimmery :D I guess I don't know how to work around it but it looks really nice one you~

@a!k0I agree, most are shimmery except for 3 or 4 shades, perhaps. But I honestly prefer shimmer shadows over matte ones as I think mattes can add years? Or maybe it's just me again. :P
ReplyDeletewe are a kindred spirit in loving dark e/s - apir sis! i've been hearing so much nga on a lot of Sleek palettes but usually i get attracted with smaller ones - nadala na ko sa 88 palette. T_T
ReplyDelete@MereMakeupManiac I would have to agree on us loving dark e/s. Haha! I was never attracted on those palettes because I knew something will be up given the inexpensive price tag and the number of shadows in one palette. But do give these palettes a try, they're nice and I think sooo much better than the 88 and such. :)
