Excellent, thanks very much for that They actually have the store I visited listed on Sleek's website as a stockist, but the list must just be out of date. Oh well. Victoria is pretty handy for the occasions when I do go into London, so I'll definitely have a look. I'm also dying to go to the Westfield and check out Inglot too (I've been out of work for the last 2 months, I just got a job a few days ago so now I'm reactivating my lemmings list... ). I'm sensing a trip to London coming soon-ish!

That's excellent news, I was the exact same way when I became fully qualified at work ..

Oooh which store in Westfields sells Inglot? I really want to try some of their stuff out and I am going to Westfields soon

I found this if it's of any help

SLEEK Divine Shadow Collection

SLEEK Cosmetics: i-Divine Eye Shadow Pallette

They have the three staples there and it's just a quid more than it is in Superdrug.

It's an actual Inglot store. It's on the ground level close to Boots. The store was way bigger than I imagined it would be - even bigger than my local MAC. I actually just went to Westfield today, and ended up getting two small Inglot Freedom palettes - one with 4 eyeshadows & a brow powder, and another with 2 lip colours and a concealer. The prices are outrageously low when you compare with MAC too. Will do a review on my sadly neglected blog sometime. AND the Westfield Superdrug had Sleek, so I got my Storm palette!! Yesss.... it's really lovely, now I have something decent to take on holiday with me when I don't want to risk taking one of my precious MAC palettes. The colours are beautiful, I'm going to pick up a couple more next time I go to use as gifts. Thanks so much for the links though!! I also got a Sleek gel eyeliner in Espresso, but when I opened it up, it looked kind of dried out (as in, had shrunken away from the sides of the jar). Has anyone else had this problem?? It's kind of solid, but still seems to be usable.

Hey, it must seem like I'm stalking you . I have a Bobbi Brown gel liner and that was kinda "cracked" away on the side and it works perfectly well. The reason I didn't buy the Sleek gel liner was because all the samples were dried out so I couldn't really see how the colour worked. I'd suggest returning it and buying another

Haha, cool I have a stalker

Yes, this happened to one of my MAC fluidlines too after about a year.. It sort of shrivelled and cracked! Which is why I thought the Sleek one must be faulty... unless it's meant to be solid? Hmm.. I won't be going back to the store anytime soon, so I think I'll just try and "rehydrate" it with some Fix+.

My Bobbi Brown gel liner came with a crack on the side but it works just as well as my black BB one which came with no cracks in it. I think it's meant to be solid as my BB ones were solid but still soft enough to mould onto the brush.

I tested out the Electric Sleek palette and it's lovely . Sold a few to my friends who couldn't find them so have more money for that Stila warehouse sale

[Soleil185]

I am so annoyed that theses aren't avail in the US!

[SafarE]

i have the acid palette and the other shimmer one and they are amaazing i think i got the shimmer one on offer aaaages ago it was like 2 for £6 ....acid one can be abit chalky but they are still amazing

[darklocke]

Is Acid still available anywhere? If so, would someone be a doll and CP it for me (to Norway)?

[LisaOrestea]

I have one of these palettes from the christmas before last
Its actually amazing! Considering the price!

I really want the neon coloured one but most stores have sold out of it, I do keep checking in at superdrug though

[Scots Lass]

The Acid palette sold out completely in Scotland thanks to the powers of Youtube. It seems like it's the most sought after one of the Sleek range.

[doomkitteh]

I know the Superdrugs in Russell Square and Edgware Road both have Sleek, and they're pretty central. I only have the original palette but I like it well enough. I wanted to get storm but I already have a range of smokey-eye eyeshadows. I can't find the acid palette in the Brixton Superdrug, I'll check out the Russell Square one.

I have one of the Sleek blushes. It's a nice colour but I find it very hard to blend. That said I don't have any good brushes. Not quite sure what to do with it.

My nephew wrecked my pallettes before i was ever able to use them. The new safari one looks good though. May buy.

[jayleelah]

yes it was sold out also in London two weeks ago.
I was so sad when she told me they didn't have one in stock for me.
So I just bought the Safari palette and another one (can't recall it's name)

Also, I don't know why I hesitated, there was this wonderful bright fushia pigment I wanted and oh well, I didn't buy it. Now that I'm back in Belgium, I regret it!

I went to Superdrug on the day that the Acid palettes were released, I regret not picking up more but they only had about 15 on the whole display.

I can't wait to pick up the newest one, I want to test their lipsticks but they never have them in the colour I want in store.

[xBubblegum]

I saw them in Superdrug today but had no money on me. Will go back sometime this week and have a look, I think I'll be buying a lipgloss, it smells well good!

[LeeleeBell]

I have the original and the Jewels palette and I love them both soooo much. Have had them about a month and I just want to use them every day lol....I especially love the Jewels palette.

I live in the US and bought them through Shadesbeauty.com....2 palettes plus shipping came to about $23 USD.

[Pink_Puddleduck]

I juts went and bought the limited edition Curious pallet as a quick way to restock my make up bag (mine got stolen ) looks amazing , but i am at work and haven't had time to play as yet. In my local superdrug they only had the original and the smokey one storm maybe? can anyone give me a list of all their pallets? There is the most devine blue-y brown in my one

[TISH1124]

The ones I have are

Chaos
Storm
Safari
Acid
Original
Jewels
Curious

Not sure if there are any others

[Pink_Puddleduck]

Thanks i like the look of the safari one, i may track that one down next

[SeaHen]

I'm mad at myself for not getting the safari pallette, but they said that when they have the website up( which has been under construction for 2 years may i add) that they will stock all pallettes released.

[jenizzle]

Have many of used the BeautyUK palettes? How do they compare? They look very much like the ebay palettes, but wanted to know if the Sleek ones are the same, quality-wise!

ETA: I got three palettes today in Superdrug in Belfast! I had to ask for them as they don't put them on display anymore by the looks of it!

[Pink_Puddleduck]

I haven't used the beauty UK pallets, i always look at them so if anyone has any knowledge of them i'd be interested!

I recently bought one of sleek's lipsticks in rose petal, its a beautiful dusky pink with almost a gold tone to it, can be applied ot be almost nude, i'd highly recommend it, i may have to post a swatch, for £3.29 it is such a good buy!

What other sleek products have people tried lately?

[doomkitteh]

I bought a lipstick in Blaze about two days ago, haven't worn it yet. It's a shimmery brown and I didn't have a colour like that.
