Swatches - Sleek Limited Edition 'Sparkle' i-Divine Palette!


Due to being poorly, going to a festive party and then falling over on the ice (and landing on my head), these swatches have ended up going up a lot later than I had intended. Also, in the swatches, please excuse any cuts and scratches that you notice, they are some of my injuries from the aforementioned fall.

Sleek MakeUP’s Sparkle i-Divine palette has been a fantastic purchase for me already, I had been anticipating its release ever since I first saw Sleek mention it on their Facebook page and I’m not disappointed. I must admit that I had my reservations about the red and yellow in the palette from the first ‘palette pictures’ that were released, but actually these are a lot better than I had imagined they would be; especially since the yellow is actually more gold, and the ‘red’ is a lot more wearable than first thought, and can be blended with the blues to create even more sparkly purple hues.

My favourite colours from this palette are Galactic, Twinkle, Illusion, Festive, Mistletoe and Glitz & Glamour; but really they’re all rather lovely colours and will all get used lots over the party season!

As ever, the quality of the shadows is great and lasts really well on the eye – basically everything I have come to expect from Sleek palettes, and yes there is a bit of fall down from the shadow on application but this is easily solved by taking appropriate measures to avoid your foundation base being ruined.


These will not be available for long, as they’re limited edition so if you want one then I suggest you go buy one as soon as you can – especially since they’re still only £5.99 (such a bargain in my opinion)!
