Review: Sleek Storm Palette

Good morning my darlings :)

I've had this since the Sleek 50% sale so I thought it was high time I reviewed it!

Product


Sleek say: The Storm i-Divine palette comprises of 12 strong and rich shades perfect for accentuating the eyes and creating natural looks. 

I say: I think Sleek have made a gem of a palette here. It's perfect for creating neutral looks - it's pretty much become my go to palette for when I want something simple and easy. It's also easy to do a smoked out look thanks to the darker shadea. There are 9 shimmery and metallic shades and 4 good mattes in this palette. I love the black, it's the best black shadow I've ever used! As with the rest of the Sleek palettes, the packaging is brilliant - a nice sturdy palette, and a fabulous full sized mirror which is perfect for travelling.

Application



Sleek say: The velvet-touch consistency gives full and shimmering coverage to the eye lid for maximum effect. Each shade can be applied alone for a dramatic effect or mixed to create a personalised look. Best applied with the applicator enclosed.

I say: I really can't fault Sleek on the quality of their palettes. Their shadows are always highly pigmented and glide on super easy. I also find them really easy to blend, and they're not at all chalky. One thing I will say is this - Sleek, will you ever learn? Foam applicators are pants. Please replace them with an eye shadow brush :) Other than that I really cannot fault the Storm palette. I think it's a must have in anyone's collection.

Price: £6.49
Available from: Sleek & Superdrug

    I love this, it's been pretty much my go-to palette all month. Mines not nearly as lovely and new looking as yours though! xx

    LOVE this palette. The browns are great for eyebrows - the darkest brown in mine is now empty because I used it for eyebrows every day!

    Some of the shades in this look pretty similar to some of the UD Naked shades. Would maybe be worth getting this for travelling with though- in case of breakages!- and the mirror on these is a decent, usable size!
