I'm a Bad Girl - Sleek Divine Mineral Based Eyeshadow Palette in Bad Girl Swatches

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,

  2. @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

  4. @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. :)

  13. 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. :)

  28. @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!

  35. @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

  36. we 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
  37. @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. :)
