Hey guys
So today I thought I'd show you one of my favourite drugstore eyeshadow palettes!
So this is the Sleek oh so special palette it is about €10 in my boots but if your unfortunate enough to not have a sleek in your superdrug or boots you can get it off the sleek website or eBay.
This palette has 12 eyeshadows with a mix of mattes and shimmers ,the palette has a wide range of lights pink to beige to dark plums is so perfect for everyday natural looks as well as dark smokey eyes for a party which is great because you get two types of looks for the price of one!
The black 'sleek'- no pun intended ,packiging is great for traveling since it's so compacked it can fit nicely in my makeup bag! It also comes with a massive mirror which is brilliant for makeup on the go since I'm always running late and doing my makeup in a car or a bus!
Bow,organza,ribbon,gift basket,glitz and celebrate
My favourite shades from the top row are organza and gift basket because I love light pinks and beiges like this! Bow and ribbon are a bit chalky and powdery but I still use bow as a inner eye highlight , ribbon is a nice pop of coral in this palette , I say it would be lovely in the summer with a tan ! For the other two glitz and celebrate are extremely pigmented and very daring for me but I say someone with a much darker skin tone than me could totally rock these shade.

Pamper,gateau,the mail,wrapped up,boxed and noir
My favourite shades from the bottom row have to be gateau which is a beautiful frosty pink with golden shimmer and when you apply it to your lid it almost looks holographic or rose gold! Which I'm a massive fan of. I also like boxed since it is a great crease colour since it is a cool matte shade it's really buildable but sometimes I find that it falls off my brush ,
while I blending the crease and it ends up on my cheeks.
I don't really dip into the mail much just because it doesn't really show up on your lid as much as I'd hoped along with noir - don't get me wrong IT SHOWS UP even a bit too much , I find black quite useless colour for me because I'm too nervous to use a black but for others they could really make this work or they just have a light hand.
Over all I find this palette really amazing for a beginner to makeup since it's not to wild or expensive and it has a wide range of quite natural girly colours. I think that the matte shades colour payoff isn't as good as the shimmers as you could probably tell by the swatches. I find that glitz is very similar to the urban decay naked palette gunmail also bow is very like virgin from the same palette!
Hope you guys enjoyed this blog post and let me know what sleek palettes you have because I really want to try some more! Follow me on my Twitter and this blog your reading right now!
