Sleek Hella Good Eyes for Holiday 2017
One of my favorite new drugstore brands at Ulta has to be Sleek. I've long coveted products from this British brand, and one of my local Ultas was an early adopter. I've slacked on reviewing the products I have from the brand, but keep in mind I've got a huge queue- and permanent products slot in where they can. This time of year, it's all holiday sets!
I spotted the Sleek Hella Good Eyes Set at my local Ulta and snapped it up. For $20, you get two of the 12-pan eyeshadow palettes.
They're packaged really well and look really cute. These are two full-sized palettes, and I think they're both in the permanent line.
The two palettes are 1152 Gleaming in Gold and 141 Vintage Romance.
Here's a shot of both palettes together- sadly after I'd already played with them.
Let's dive on in.
As an aside, this is what all Sleek palettes look like on top:
Palette Gleaming in Gold is different in that it's all shimmers.
These look really pretty in person, but honestly I can't work with just an all-shimmer palette very much these days. Gold is tricky though- and I'm always looking for more.
This palette has twelve different interpretations of gold, one of my favorite shades on my eyes.
Here's what the top row looks like:
And the bottom row:
I haven't had the time to play with it this much, but I wanted to share the contents of this gift set in case you saw it at Walgreens or Ulta and wanted to grab it for yourself or someone else. I'm planning to dive into Sleek as a brand in 2018.
The other palette is Vintage Romance.
This has a mix of mattes and shimmers, and leans more cool-toned. There are pops of pinks but it's predominantly a cool palette- which really draws me to it.
I feel like I own this somewhere in my messy beauty room. I originally purchased two Sleek palettes and feel like I have this on account of that matte transition share in the upper right.
Let's dive in.
Row 1 is lighter:
And the bottom, deeper row:
I feel like Vintage Romance will produce more varied looks than the Gold palette, but I'm glad to have both. This won't be the last that you see them on this space.
Given that you are getting the palettes at a discount, I found this set to be a good value.
