Sleek Vintage Romance palette

Hiya!

As soon as I saw swatches of Sleek's latest palette I did a loud squee.


If you've been reading a while, you might know I'm a major Sleek fan. On the whole I find their palettes to be excellent value, with a good choice and variety of shades, and usually the pigment is excellent.


It comes in the usual sleek packaging. Sleek....sleek....see what I did there? Yeah, I'll shut up now.




It's a quite 'samey' palette at first glance. It is and it isn't - there are a few taupe shades in the top row, which have enough variation between them to make them worthy inclusions, but the two berry pinks is one too many in my opinion as there's not much difference between them. Overall it's a good palette and I look forward to taking these shades for a spin, as I don't have many berry shades in my possession.


TOP ROW - PRETTY IN PARIS, MEET IN MADRID, COURT IN CANNES, LUST IN LA, ROMANCE IN ROME, PROPOSE IN PRAGUE.

BOTTOM ROW - A VOW IN VENICE, MARRY IN MONTE CARLO, HONEYMOON IN HOLLYWOOD, BLISS IN BARCELONA, FOREVER IN FLORENCE, LOVE IN LONDON.

(N.B. I don't know why I do this. I HATE describing colours. These are just my humble, colour-uneducated take.)

PRETTY IN PARIS - a very shiny silver which I'll use as a highlight in my inner corners to avoid the 'tin foil eyelids' look
MEET IN MADRID - a pretty golden brown
COURT IN CANNES - taupe
LUST IN LA - slightly darker taupe
ROMANCE IN ROME - blackened blue with fine silver glitter - slightly gritty/poorly pigmented
PROPOSE IN PRAGUE - matte reddish brown

A VOW IN VENICE - berry pink
MARRY IN MONTE CARLO - berry-ish dusky pink
HONEYMOON IN HOLLYWOOD - metallic berry with silver glitter
BLISS IN BARCELONA - blueish purple
FOREVER IN FLORENCE - blackened purple with silver glitter
LOVE IN LONDON - not too intense black with silver glitter

I'll have a couple of looks up with this palette in the next few days.

Have you tried anything by Sleek? I know they can be a little hard to get hold of out of the UK.

Thanks for reading!
