Sleek i-Divine Palettes

After learning of this brand called Sleek some years ago, I have been trying to get my hands on their wonderful well pigmented, vivid colored and cheap eye palettes. Thanks to Luxola, I am able to enjoy products from Sleek without having to go through all the hassle of shipping it from UK. I first started out my collection with the Au Naturel palette, after which I went on to buy the Oh So Special from some blog sale. Just within a year, my Sleek eye palette collection grew and so I would like to share some swatches and thoughts of the palettes.

My Collection:
From left to right: 1.Snapshots, 2.PPQ Shangri-la Collection Respect, 3.Storm, 4.Au Naturel, 5.Oh So Special

Top row: 1.Storm, PPQ Shangri-la Collection Respect, 3.Oh So Special
Bottom row: 1.Snapshots, 2.Au Naturel

Oh So Special i-Divine Palette

1. Bow, 2.Organsa, 3.Ribbon, 4.Gift Basket, 5.Glitz, 6.Celebrate, 7.Pamper, 8.Gateau, 9.The Mail, 10.Boxed, 11.Wrapped Up, 12.Noir
Oh So Special is one of my most reached for palette. The pinks in the palette are so pretty, can be played with a light hand for a girly touch or with a heavier hand mixed with browns to give a romantic look.

Au Naturel i-Divine Palette

From top to bottom: 1.Noir, 2.Regal, 3.Mineral Earth, 4.Bark, 5.Moss, 6.Conker, 7.Taupe
Another palette which has colors so natural and wearable for everyday work look. It's the palette I go for when I am in a rush and just need a dash of color on my eyes for some definition. I have only swatched the bottom row of the palette as the top row just wouldn't show up.

From left to right: 1. Gladys White, 2.James Brown, 3.Shalamar, 4.Count Basi Beige, 5.Aretha Orange, 6.Otis Red, 7.Roberta Black, 8.Vandellas, 9.Cameo Cream, 10.Motown Mink, 11.O'Jays, 12.New Jack Pink
The orange and pinks in this palette are simply to die for. Colors are bold, definitely not for the weak-hearted.

Snapshots i-Divine Palette
Sleek Snapshots i-Divine Palette

From left to right: 1.Summer Breeze, 2.Martini, 3.Kiwi Flower, 4.Lotus Flower, 5.Humming Bird, 6.Tequila Sunrise, 7. Sand Walker, 8.Washed Ashore, 9. Sunset, 10.Green Iguana, 11.Purple Haze, 12.Magenta Madness
A palette with eye-popping colors. I love the good mix of mattes and shimmery eye shadow colors.

Storm i-Divine Palette
Sleek Storm i-Divine Palette

From left to right: 1.Champagne, 2.Muted Silver, 3.Light Brown, 4.Biege Gold, 5.Pink Sheen, 6.Cranberry, 7.Bronze, 8.Gun Metal, 9.Forest Green, 10.Deep Blue, 11.Dark Brown, 12.Matte Black
I just love the metallic look of this palette. It's the palette I would go to for a stronger and edgy look. The colors in the bottom row helps to do smokey look really easily.

In general, the palettes from Sleek are really well made and really worth getting. Pigmentation of the eye shadows are really good, only the natural matte eye shadows are harder to pick up. The color selection and combination of each palette are nicely done, especially at such a cheap price (~SGD$20). Only complain that I have of the palettes is the recurring black eye shadow that appeared in four out of five palettes. Why would I need so many black eye shadows for, especially when I could have gotten another special color?

For those who lives in Singapore and is interested to get the Sleek palettes, here are some online sites that I have found to carry them:
• Luxola
• Shopping-district
• Under-twenty20

*Disclaimer: Do note that I have no links with these online stores, and the products reviewed above have been purchased personally.

The Little Black Beauty Box - Shiseido

Previously I bought a few boxes of Vanity Trove, but as I find the samples in Vanity Trove getting more and more uninteresting, I decided to look for other beauty boxes instead. After doing some research, I found the recently launched "The Little Black Beauty Box" (LBBB). A joint venture by mediacorp styleXstyle and Robinsons, each month, the LBBB delivers to your doorstep a box containing a variety of beauty products in a dedicated theme, all for just S$19.90 (free shipping in Singapore). Online reviews on the past boxes showed the boxes with reasonable sized samples from quite reputable brands, all for a lower price than Vanity Trove. So I decided to try out the August box which happens to be themed "Shiseido" a brand which I am a fan of. LBBB has a nice customer service which calls you up one week before delivery to confirm delivery timing, and finally after a long long wait (I order in early July), it finally arrived! Ribbon wrapped, the LBBB looks lik...
