Has anyone tried them? They're FAB! They're by far the best drugstore eyeshadows i've tried. So highly pigmented, they're beautiful!
I only found them a couple of weeks ago, they're £2.99 in the UK for a pigment pot. It's got a beautiful mac-like texture too!
I honestly cannot recommend them enough. Especially the "iDivine" pallette.

I got mine from a Superdrug in Birmingham, I mentioned to the lady I'd never seen them before and she said they're only in a few of the Superdrug stores, she says they only get them in if there is a high urban population in the area.

She did tell me though that they sell them in a lot of the black hair care shops, because the range is meant for darker skin. So if you want some try there!

I'll post swatches if anyone wants to see? I'm thrilled to bits with them. I bought like 15 in one go

I don't know if they sell them in the US :/ i just looked on the site and they sell them in France, Western Africa and South Africa thoughhh.

I can't recommend these enough, really.
What does everyone else think?

Yay a birmingham girl like me!

Ive seen the brand in Superdrug, I saw the gorgeous colors and bought the palette, but I find the shadows hard to blend and gave it to my sister who likes wearing bright colors more than I do lol. But yes the colors are super pigmented and the prices are more than great for what you get! I want to try the pigments next

Sleek have really upped their game recently I remember it was such a crappy brand when I was back in school years ago.

You can also find it in most Afro Caribbean hair shops too (in London anyway).

The colours are great & I hope they expand the line with more selections soon when I use them over my UDPP the colour are so vibrant even better than Barry M shadows imo.

A good budget alternative to MAC.

Hmm maybe it's cuz I was using the sponge e/s brush (I was not so addicted to makeup back then)! Will have to buy again and try it with my brushes

k.a.t · 02-09-2008, 09:02 AM #7 (**permalink**)

I use the spongebrush..lol i like spongebrushes

I've got the pallete, I haven't really used it but I like the pigments they are very pigmented but I agree they should expand the colour range. They've really come a long way.

I absolutely love the eyeshadow palettes from Sleek!

I just made a little review/recommendation video about them:

YouTube - Product recommendation: Sleek makeup and false lashes

I don't think Sleek makeup is sold in the US unfortunately.

Maybe someone can do a CP for you if you are interested?

Sleek is good for the pigments, but a lot of their stuff is hit and miss.
I just bought the pallet( for no reason) and i actually prefer the collection 2000 pigment thingys.
They have come a long way, i remember my big sister would never buy any of their stuff. I have a cute blush from them too.
I wouldn't go for their mascaras or foundations.

What I think is that y'all are breaking my heart.
I want a palette! lol

It looks sooooo pretty!

shyste · 02-27-2009, 03:19 PM #15 (**permalink**)

I just got all 4 Sleek I-divine palettes...I love the pigmentation..wearing some today...I also got an ink pot & a compact eyeshadow case..wow...wasn't aware this was considered bad makeup (back in the day) in the UK

If anyone is interested I ordered mine from ShadesBeauty.com....

MsCocoa · 02-27-2009, 07:28 PM #16 (**permalink**)

The ink pots nice I only have black but I would definately go for the other colours; yea before Sleek hit superdrug it was AWFUL, it's obviously doing well if people in the US are picking up on it,

vocaltest · 02-27-2009, 07:44 PM #17 (**permalink**)

actually Ateyaaa on YT was promoting them..I guess a girl over (UK) there is selling them on her site at least that is who I ordered mine from..I guess she owns the ShadeBeauty website...and they were cheaper than I thought

I def have to say the pigmentation of the shadows are awesome esp for a WOC..jmo...haven't used the ink pot only got Dominatrix..

I just caved in and got the Divine palette and it's amazing. So shimmery!

I love their creme to powder foundation as well, they have a wide range of shades for darker skin tones.

I love sleek products. I've done a review of them on my blog if you'd like to take a look and I've got swatches up of the LE Jewels palette there too. Gonna do the other swatches later today. Most of the colours are highly pigmented however I've found that there are a few duds in there like the orange in the Jewel palette. Looks gorgeous...but just come out a some glittery mess.

I'm gonna be trying out their gel liners soon too. Any tried their single eyeshadows....GORGEOUS. Ever so pigmented as well....I think I'll do another review too. Anyone else got the singles? Oh and their blush for us chocolate girls is gorgeous! I have 2 and they go on so well!!!!

me love Sleek

How did I miss this??? (Also, how did I not realise there is a superdrug about 5 mins from my house?? hmmm...). Definitely hopping along to superdrug at the very next opportunity to check out the Storm palette and gel liners.

MissResha · 06-20-2009, 06:43 PM #22 (**permalink**)

i bought a palette from ebay a while back. and it shipped from the UK in a week. which is insane (in a good way)

RedRibbon · 06-20-2009, 06:52 PM #23 (**permalink**)

I've just done a review on my blog for one of the palettes, I'm super impressed with the colour payoff from these and the ease with which they blend..so glad I bought as many as I did

and the dreaded sponge applicator you get with it holds up pretty good!

anita22 · 06-21-2009, 12:52 PM #24 (**permalink**)

ok DANG my local superdrug doesn't have sleek... might have to investigate ordering online instead. I really want the Storm palette!

Hi Anita, I heard that they are only stocked in urban areas. However, I have seen them in the Superdrugs in Old Street, Victoria and Uxbridge. The Superdrug in Victoria is the best stocked one I've ever seen. I checked Superdrug online as was going to buy mine from there but they didn't have all the palettes.
