Sleek Storm Palette

Hello! Long time no see!

I recently made a quick trip into superdrug and decided to pick up a sleek storm palette after my first failed attempt (almost the entire palette was shattered when I got it home)

These are quite popular across the UK community yet none of my friends appeared to have heard of or tried the brand. I can say the palette was a pleasant surprise - retailing at £6.49 for 12 shadows. The colours in this palette are a range of neutrals perfect for both a daytime neutral eye and a nighttime smoky eye! I would say this palette would be perfect for those days where you have to go from work/uni/school to a nighttime engagement and need a few shadows to ease the makeup transition!

The shadows themselves are soft with a velvety feel but my only complaint would be that in being so soft they have a tendency to fly around the palette making it hard to keep it tidy. A primer would definitely be necessary with these shadows as they are so soft that they will almost certainly crease. I wore a neutral eye with urban decay primer potion as a base and it lasted all day.

All in all, a nice purchase which will most certainly be well loved within my collection!

Have any of you tried the Sleek products?

  1. I've just moved to the UK, so Sleek is something completely new to me.
    BUT-I have tried the Sleek Pout Pots and they are AMAZING!
    You can wear them sheer or they are actually remarkably buildable considering its technically a balm.
    Electro Peach & Scandal are my faves!
