Well I picked the Sleek Cosmetics Graphite palette up when I went to get Janice’s Storm palette for the Halloween competition.
I do really like this palette and it’s under £5 so a bargain. As much as everyone goes on about these shadows and as much as I personally like the colours and price, the aren’t as good pigmentation or quality as higher end in my opinion, if you swatch this next to a Shu Uermura you will see there is just no contest although they are still a lot better than other lower end shadows. Sometimes when I read about people going on and on and on about these palettes I wonder why as they are good but their reviews seem a little missleading. I.e. if you are reading this in a country where they don’t sell Sleek, it is not the be all and end all to try and get it (in my opinion) you will be able to dupe the colours.
Edited to add – this is just the opinion of me. You do not have to agree! I am not saying don’t buy this (erm I bought it myself!), I am just saying – make your own mind up xxx
That out of the way this is definitely my favourite palette over Jewels, Storm and Original. I used the 2 lightest shadows for work and they are nice everyday on the eyelid but are probably just there as highlight for a smoky eye look.
Here are the pics, I took one up on way and one upside down to see if it showed the colours better
And these are the swatches of the top row starting from the shimmery white
And these are the swatches of the bottom row
As you can see I ran out of arm so had to move to a second row lol!
Are you planning on getting it? I figured at £4.87 it was a good deal!
