Review: Sleek I-Divine Oh So Special Palette





Product Info from SLEEK Makeup:

It’s the ultimate i-Divine that every woman should have in her possession, with 12 flattering on-trend shades to suit all skin tones no matter what the occasion, the Oh So Special palette will always deliver the perfect results.



Take your look from day time chic with matte browns and creamy beiges, through to sultry evening glamour with shimmering grays and smokey plums. A make-up bag staple and a must-have i-Divine you can rely on, so no matter where you are or what you’re doing you’ll look Oh So Special!





RETAIL PRICE: $12.60 on Sleek website.



WEIGHT: 12 x 1.1 grams





PROS:

* eyeshadow is mineral based

* palette is sleek and easy fits in your makeup bag.

* a mixture of 5 shimmery & 7 matte shades.

* good color-pay off even without primer (similar to the Carribean Palette)

* minimal fall-outs due to its creamy, buttery texture.

* amazing staying power

* minimal creasing on the inner corners of my eye

* all shades are non-chalky IMO.





CONS:

* not available locally.





TIPS:

* Use a fluffy eyeshadow brush with a bit of loose powder to remove eyeshadow fall-outs.

* The NOIR shade can also be used as eyeliner, just wet your eyeliner brush and apply the shade on your upper lashline. You can also use this to set your black pencil or gel eyeliner.







I RECOMMEND THIS TO:

Ladies who love neutral shades that can used everyday for school, office and gimmicks.





OVERALL:

You know I'm a sucker for neutral shades! This palette is a must have for me!



Fyi, SLEEK Makeup will be releasing their NUDE COLLECTION this fall, I'm already excited! Their I-Divine Au Naturel Palette looks promising.

Review: Sleek Curacao I-Divine Eyeshadow Palette from Carribean Collection

Inspired by dynamic colours reminiscent of the Carribean, Sleek MakeUp has launched a Limited Edition Carribean Collection that combines 2 key Sring/Summer 2011 trends: 1970's beauty and bold brights to catapult you into that holiday feeling.



I will be reviewing first the Curacao I-Divine Eyeshadow Palette.







Product Info from SLEEK MAKEUP:

Jet off into paradise with the Curacao I-Divine 12 pc. Eyeshadow palette, a mix of bold corals, ocean blue hues, and tangerine brights. Sleek MakeUp's high colour pigmentation helps recreate the stand-out orange eyes rocked by Hollywood hottie Scarlett Johanssen and Pop Queen Fergie this Spring. Bright eyes are back; wear vivid sweep of coral or lucid yellow as seen at the Derek Lam and Peter Som fashion shows in 2011.





RETAIL PRICE: $10.50 on Sleek website.



WEIGHT: 12 x 1.1 grams





PROS:

* eyeshadow is mineral based, so lesser chance of allergies.

* palette is sleek and easy fits in your makeup bag.

* a mixture of 6 matte & 6 shimmery shades.

* really pigmented ; good color-pay off even without primer.

* minimal fall-outs due to its creamy, buttery texture.

* unscented

* amazing staying power; color did not fade throughout the day.

* darker shades can be used as eyeliner.

* minimal creasing on the inner corners of my eye (after 6 hours - not bad at all!)

Note: I have slightly oily lids.





CONS:

* not available locally.

* some shades are chalky (blue lagoon & screwdriver)





TIPS:

* Due to its creamy powder formula, I've noticed that it's best when you use a natural hair eyeshadow brush for easier application and to minimize fall-outs, if you don't own one you can also use your fingertips or the applicator provided.

* If your eyelids are not that oily like mine you can get away without using an eye primer, but if you have oily lids I highly recommend using one.





I RECOMMEND THIS TO:

Anyone who's a fan of bright colored eye makeup!





OVERALL:

The shades are really vibrant and pretty, but they are to bright for my liking... I prefer the Sleek Oh So Special palette for everyday use (will post swatches soon). Don't worry this palette won't go to waste, we are planning a photoshoot this month and I'm definitely using this!
