REVIEW: Sleek i-Divine eyeshadow Palette - Storm

Hello lovelies :)

Recently an online store had quite a big sale of some Sleek make up products, so ofcourse I got myself a few goodies. The first thing I tried out is the Storm I-Divine palette, because I am all about their eyeshadow palettes :) I am pleased to report that this palette more than satisfyes my expectations. 

The shades come in a sturdy black matte plastic packaging, with sleek written on the lid. There is a big mirror inside and 12 shades, each 1g/0.03 oz. I really love this packaging, because it is so simplistic and sturdy, aldough depoting the eyeshadows is a real pain. I have a big dream of having all the sleek eyeshadows in one big Z palette, but the risk of breaking the shadow is just to big, because the packaging is soo sturdy.

As stated before, there are 12 eyeshadows total in this palette, ranging from light to dark with a nice mix of neutrals and colours. I really appreciate that they made the two brown shades matt, since I feel like matte browns are much mor versitille than shimmery colours. All of the shades are buttery, with the exception of  Electric Storm, which has some big chunks of glitter in it. I did experience some minor fallout with darker shades, but all in all the shades are really pigmented and they blend really nicely without any patchyness. The only eyeshadow I had to pack a bit heavier on the lid, to show up nicely, was Snow Storm, which is a light shimmery highlight colour. These eyeshadows wore nicely for around 10 hours before they started creasing and there was no fading. 

  

Sand Storm: Cool gold

Snow Storm: Shimmery champagne colour

Calm Before Storm: lighter neutral matte brown. Swatches really porly, but goes opaque on the lid or in the crease

   

Thunder Storm: warm gold

Perfect Storm: Light pink with gold shimmer

Firestorm: cool reddish copper shade with shimmer

  

Dust Storm: Dark Bronzy brown with gold shimmer

Gathering Storm: darger greyish blue with a bit of glitter

Storm Cloud: Dark green with small silver glitter

   

Electric Storm: Dark blue with bigger chunks of glitter. Tapping the product of the brush before applying it is essential with this one. 

Eye Of The Storm: Cool toned medium brown. Swatches really porly, but appears pigmented on the lid and in the crease

Blackout: A deep ritch buttery matte black

You can see some of the looks I created using this palette here.

As with all of the Sleek palettes soo far I must say that I am really pleased with the overall quality of these eyeshadows. You can get it on the Sleek official site for 10,49 € and on licila.si for 12,95€.

Did you try this or any other Sleek i-Divine palette? Which one is your favourite?

Thank you for reading :D

Have a nice day :D

Sleek Face Form Review - Light

Hi lovelies,

i'm writhing this, while the most annoying fly is attacking me.

Today i have a product review for you. I've had the Sleek Contour Kit on my wishlist for few years, but never got it. A year or two ago, Sleek relleased Face Form paletts, it's basicly a Contour Kit, but it also contains a blush, wich is super convinient for traveling.

So about a month ago i got this palette as a suprise with my order from Ličila.si and i was so excited when i saw that it's even in the right shade for me.

Price is 15,95€

It comes in a tipical Sleek packaging, the size is the same as Blush by 3 palettes. It contains 20g of products. The packaging is really great for traveling or just for carrying it in your makeup bag. There is also a big mirror inside.

 CONTOUR POWDER: It's matte powder, it's really soft to the touch, super pigmented and it blends super easy, but not overblend. I apply in the holows of my cheeks, on the sides of my forehead and sides of my nose. I am using a angled blush brush for that.

HIGHLIGHTER: I can't really discribe the color, it's not pink, not gold...it's like a neutural? Not sparkly, glittery but it gives you a lovely natural sheen. I apply it donw my nose, on top of my cheek bones, in the center of my forhead, cupids bow and sometimes under my brows. I am using a BH Cosmetics Higlighter brush for that.

BLUSH: It's super soft and pigmented, just like every other Sleek blush. I tought it's the same shade as Rose Gold, but it's not, it is gold-er than Rose Gold and more coraly. Just to compare, in Blush by 3 palette in Lace there is a shade called Guipure, wich looks like Rose Gold also, but when you swatch it is pinkier and not as intense.
So i usually apply this blush on top of other blushes, but sometimes i use it alone. I am applying it with Art Deco Stippling brush.

I am really happy with this palette. It last on my skin whole day, but the primer and setting spray also help. I would really recomend this to everyone who wants to have everything for contouring in one palette. It's perfect for beginers and also someone who is not new to makeup.

Have you tried anything like this yet? What do you think about this palette?

Have a lovely day!

*This product was sent to me, my oppinion is completly honest!

Catrice products leaving the shelves in July 2015

Hello lovelies :)

We recently got a mail that showed us all the goodies that are leaving the Catrice shelves this year. As you might know, Catrice (and Essence) do this kind of stuff, where they say goodbye to some of their current products and introduce some new one. Let's take a look at what is leaving the shelves this year.

Are you sad to see some products go? I know I am, I really liked the Pure Shines... I am quite sad that they will be gone.

Thank you for reading :D

Have a nice day :)
