READERS REVIEW: Sleek True Color Sheen Lipstick in Coral Reef

There are times when I pick something up, which catches my eye and then when I bring it home with me and try it out, I realize that it may not really suit me :( Does this happen to you as well? Well this happens with me mostly when I shop for something online! >:-0 So anyways, whenever I ask my guy if it suited me, he would gimme a corny reply like "Babe everything looks good on you"... Hmmmphhh... Honestly? I like to be flattered but dude I sometimes need an honest reply so! Don't we all? ;) Haha..

So anyways, just today while trying out Sleek True Color Lippy in Coral Reef, I realized that I wasn't sure if it suited me or not! And it suddenly struck me that I could start a section called "Readers Review", where you guys would give me your true opinions about a particular product. In other words, you guys will review the product for me through the comments section!!! What say? Are you guys in?

So today, as the first feature for Reader's Review, I present to you ladies and gentlemen Sleek True Color Sheen Lipstick in Coral Reef.

REVIEW, SWATCHES & LOTD: Sleek iDivine "Bad Girl" Palette

This is one review, which has been long due... You guys obviously know I got myself a Sleek Haul in the end of November "last year" :P and a review of this palette has been pending since then ;) I did review the Sleek iDivine "Original" Palette earlier and well for this one I got plain lazy pre-occupied!

So anyways, I picked up this palette mainly for two reasons... One for its obvious Smoky Eye inducing shades and the other cause of it's name "Bad Girl". Whoa! I am not one but I wouldn't mind turning into one for a couple of nights days :P You know what am saying? But really puns apart, this palette sure is the love of my life right now as I cannot even fathom the number of smoky eye looks I can do with this! It's just so perfect! :D

Ooohsss And Aaaahhhs!!!
1. The smooth velvety texture is just heavenly.
2. Truly the most pigmented shadows I have ever come across
3. They are very comfortably priced.
4. Odorless
5. Do not cause any reactions or allergies
6. Comes with a very good quality rubbery sponge applicator.
7. Has a rectangular mirror in the palette.
8. The palette is extremely Sleek (namesake) and very comfortable to carry around.
9. Almost NIL fallout.
10. The palette looks ultra pretty especially because of the font of the word "Sleek" on the palette :) 

Ouches!!!
1. Creases on me after about 5-6 hours
2. Non availability in India


Price
It costs about $10.00 on the sleek makeup website


Repurchase?
Oh yes definitely! I might even buy some backups and keep :P


Would I Recommend?
If you are a smoky eye girl or if your guy is a smoky eye loving guy, then this palette should be yours in the next 24 hours! It's a must!!! :D

REVIEW, SWATCHES & LOTD: Sleek iDivine Eye Shadow Palette in "Original"


A latest addition to my makeup stash is the loot I ordered from Sleek Makeup and well I am loving it :) Yes I am starting with the series of Sleek reviews from this post on and I promise to make you jealous fall in love with Sleek if you are not already! :P

So anyways, I am starting with reviewing the Sleek iDivine Palette in "Original". The review and swatches for "Bad Girl" will follow next. I chose "Original" over others is because of the variety of colors this palette offers. It has blues, greens, peaches, a purple, a black and a highlighter shade. The shadows are extremely well pigmented and have a "wet" effect to them. Not that they are the best quality shadows I have used, but for the price of $10.00, they are utterly awesome!
The shadows have a very soft and smooth texture and the pigmentation is the best that I have seen. The colors in this palette are bold and are mostly of Satin, Velvety finish. Except for the Black which is a matte shade, all others have a shimmer in them. And NO! the shimmery effect of the shadows isn't subtle. They flaunt it as if they are truly proud of their shimmer ;)

I would love to purchase ALL the palettes Sleek has to offer! Love love love their shadows :)
Would I Recommend?
Are you kidding? Yes I recommend Sleek eye shadow palettes with all my heart. They are the best in this price range and well much better than many others that are more expensive than these. Ladies, please go and buy them. I even sold off one brand new sealed Original palette for 0 profit cause I wanted to share it with Indian beauty bloggers :)
