Sleek eyeshadow palettes-are they worth it?

Review: Sleek eyeshadow palettes


I was really excited to get my Sleek palette, in the Shangri-La collection supreme , but I have to say I'm am a little disappointed!While the colours look beautiful in the palette, the lighter shades are less impressive when I swatched them.



Never the less, I endured in an attempt to create a bold yellow look, with 
Grand Master Flash 
as a base colour and 
Delfonic and Shangrila's lemon to compliment Bronx black. 

 However, on applying the colour I had little pay off and had to apply the product several times, still with little result! The colour would fade pretty soon after application. The colour I will give credit to is Bronx Black, which has create colour pay off, and is silky smooth. 


The other colours were a bit of let down too. I was really excited for the beautiful Blue suede and La Belle Blue (the two on the far left), but found they settled into my creases, were streaky and again had little colour reward (P.S this was with a primer). However I do have to give credit to some of the darker shades, which had much more promising colour rewards.


Overall, whilst I did enjoy some of the darker shades of this palette I was really let down by the brighter colours, which had looked sunning at first glance. However,  I still find myself really wanting to like Sleek, because the colours that did pull through were beautiful.  Because of this I would say if you really want a palette, I would recommend one that focuses on darker shades.






Thanks for reading!
