Review: Sleek Oh So Special Palette



 I have owned 2 other Sleek palettes in the past and loved them so much that I actually finished both.  I had mentioned to my sister that I wanted another one so when she went to the UK this summer she picked this one out for me.  The Oh So Special palette is even better than The Storm and Original palettes that I had previously used and loved.  My sister even went and ordered this palette after I raved about it.

All colours swatched without eyeshadow primer.
  The colours in this palette are perfect and every single one is useful in creating a variety of both neutral and dramatic looks.  My absolute favourite is Celebrate which is a super dark purple and looks amazing on it's own and blended out to create a perfect smokey eye.  I used Boxed and Wrapped Up almost daily as crease colours and they go with pretty much any lid colour.

What is extra special about this palette is that a lot of the colours have other uses:
*Ribbon, Pamper, & Gateau work as blushes
*The Mail & Boxed work as eyebrow colours
*Noir is SO pigmented that it can be used as an eyeliner

  Sleek palettes are housed in sturdy, black plastic packaging and come with a large mirror inside.  The packaging and the versatility of these shades make it the perfect palette to travel with.  I honestly even reach for this more than my much unloved (and overpriced) Urban Decay Naked Palette.

Price: $9.99 + $2.77 Shipping

    1. Exactly! That's why I'm addicted. I'd much rather buy one of these palettes than 1 single MAC eyeshadow.

    1. I can't believe how cheap these are. Even if they were triple the price they'd be a good value.
