Sleek True Colour Lipstick in Baby Doll


  Sleek is an amazing British brand that Canadians only have access to online :( Their products are amazing so I definately think they're worth taking a chance on.  I own quite a few Sleek True Colour Lipsticks and so does my sister so I'm on a mission to review each one we one as they're really quite good considering their price.  Sleek lipsticks come in two finishes "Matte" and "Sheen" and today I'll be reviewing the shade "Baby Doll" which is has a sheen finish.

  Baby Doll is a pale milky pink with a glossy finish.  Unlike most pale pinks I've tried before Baby Doll has a touch of brightness to the colour which makes it much more wearable for a fair girl like myself.  The sheen finish of Baby Doll makes an otherwise scary colour much more wearable as your natural lip colour still shows through the lipstick.

  This lipstick is very comfortable to wear but dispite is soft texture it can easily show any dry skin on your lips.  I tend to wear a lip balm underneath my Sleek Sheen lipsticks and it makes them apply much more smoothly.  I get only a couple of hours wear out of Baby Doll but to me that's expected out of a sheer and glossy lipstick.

Availability: Sleek Makeup, $6.49USD (Shipping to N. America is $2.77 per order)

    1. Ah that sucks :( Their stands in Superdrug that I did see were so picked over it seems online is the best way to go.

  2. I love Sleek but have yet to try their lipsticks, I suppose I should! I think 'baby doll' is a very appropriate name!

    1. You must! They're very nice and they have lots of MAC dupes.

  3. I still haven't picked up any Sleek products but I think I would like this one. I much prefer the idea of the sheen lipsticks so I will check them out next time I am in Superdrug. It looks so pretty! xx

  7. Beautiful pink, yet another color that looks amazing on you! :-) I have a feeling this would look dry on me. Thanks for letting me know about the other (lilac) color you were wearing. I decided not to try maybelline color whispers b/c everyone said these lippies were too sheer. Btw I nominated you for the versatile blogger award!

    1. Thank you! That particular Color Whisper is actually very pigmented! I have pigmented lips and it showed up very well. Thanks for the nomination :)

    1. Thanks Pang :) I think it is a bit easier to wear than most light pinks though since it's sheer.
