    Opinions on Sleek makeup
    Just wondering if any of you have tried Sleek makeup products, and how you found them. I'm tempted to buy one of the eyeshadow palettes as I heard the shadows are easy to put on and wear well. I usually only wear Urban Decay eyeshadows, so if anyone has a view on how they compare to them I'd be grateful. Thanks :]

    I've used their powder and the acid palette for eyeshadows (: I must say i was quite apprehensive but the end result is brilliant it certainly lives up to its name sleek. though you have to know it doesnt always go with all skin type as it worked well for me but ended up giving my friend rashes so good luck with yours! (: xoxo

    i have a few of their palettes, i really like them. they're obviously not urban decay quality but for the price i think they're really good. really good selection of colours and they last ages!

    soso pigmented and a great colour selection for the night time
    you'll need a good primer as they don't last long however

    Their eyeshadow palettes are fairly decent quality, great pigmentation and reasonable staying power. My friend also recommends their contour kits, according to her the powder is smooth and blendable and doesn't slide off her face throughout the day.

    I really like the pallettes of eye shadow. I think sleek in general is really good for a low price. Also check out the pout polishes!

    Sleek is just ok. The quality of the eyeshadows is not as good as Urban Decay. I regret buying a Sleek palette. Will stick with Urban Decay, Lancome, Dior etc

    Sleek is great for the price, especially the eyeshadow palettes, I'm a big fan

    If you don't want to be spending a fortune on higher end makeup I definitely recommend Sleek.

    I love Sleek blushes, they are so pigmented and I find myself reaching for them over my higher end ones. My favourite is rosegold, it's a pretty good dupe of Nars orgasm

    I agree with the comments about the blush - particularly Rose Gold and Flushed, they look great on when you build them up. A lot of people think that Rose Gold is a dupe for Orgasm by Nars.

    I recently found an unused contour kit from Sleek in my room that I must've purchased ages ago. Haven't really used it yet but when I do I'll let you know.

    I have the Storm eyeshadow palette and I love it, I think it has a good range of colours which are pretty pigmented and they come at a good price too. I probably will buy some other palettes by Sleek in the future.

    I have yet to try the blushers but I have also heard Rose Gold is a good blush - I've seen some beauty gurus on Youtube comment about how good it is, so might buy that too!

    No one has mentioned the lip products! I know you want eyeshadows, but if anyone is ever looking for a great lipstick then Sleek is great for that. The colours are varied and they also so 'Pout Paint' which is a highly pigmented lip gloss that you only need a tiny but of and will last you forever
