Thanks Renee! I love Sleek eyeshadows, their pigmentation is always excellent!

Whoa, those are some madly pigmented colors! I think you have an eye color that can pretty much handle all those colors, you’re lucky

Thanks Vonvon. This shade looked more red in real life but still it’s hard to find a color like that. It’s one of Barry M Dazzle Dusts, which are available in a huge selections of colors, and I had to go all the way to London to get it! I couldn’t find anything similar in Italy.
I know what you mean about pink. My skin is very very pale but still, it’s hard to find a pink shade that shows

It’s not easy for me to find a red/pink color like you did….I have many eyeshadows in different shades of pink but somehow the pinks either ended up to light on my lids or a totally different shade of pink altogether. I really like this EOTD.

But somehow it isn’t so me to put on such bright colors on my lids by myself. Need to get someone to do it for me I guess.

Thanks Celeste. I love the colors too, but only 4 or 5 five are matte, the rest has a shimmery finish. But the shimmers aren’t too obvious and my crappy camera didn’t capture them. The colors are really more beautiful in real life.

shame one colour is broken though

Connie: I love colorful and bright looks Now that I have such a beautiful and bold palette I can create even more

Danielle: really? Cos they are so pigmented and bold I wouldn’t really use them as highlighters

Dao: some of the colors remind me of Ben Nye palettes too Some of them are matte but some are pearlescent with a shimmer finish. Thank you! But I have to say that when I wear such bold looks I can get funny looks from some people. Not that I care, I love them

Dee: thanks! At the moment Sleek makeup can only be found on a very few online shops. I know Sleek is working to create a new website where they will also sell their products. Hopefully you’ll be able to get some then cos they are really good!

Hanna: thank you sweety! Honestly, those shades are challenging for me too. After playing with it for a few days, I think some of the colors are wearable, at least if you’re comfortable with wearing bright shades, but some are so bold and neon I haven’t figured out how to pull them off yet. I will post a look I did with it soon

Halifax: thanks for sharing, I follow Sleek makeup on twitter but I missed that message. I can’t wait for their store to open! And I hope they will sell LE items too, it would be a real shame if they don’t

Jen: thank you! I’m really glad I managed to get that palette, the colors are gorgeous!

Nikki: thanks hun, I’m glad you like it! I’m gonna have lots of fun creating bold looks with the new palette, I’m hoping to post some looks I do with it soon

Nicola: thank you! It looks more pink to me too, I think it was the bad lightening cos it definitely looked red in real life. Still, I think it looks quite nice but I don’t think I’ll be taking pix so late at night anymore.
