Some of you asked if I could swatch the colors from this palette so I decided to dedicate today's post to the beautiful Sleek Storm palette..
Here we go!
Top row includes these colors you see above, according to my swatches I'd call them..Warm gold (comparable to Woodwinked), White/champagne with hint of gold, Soft beige/taupe, Gold, Pearly pink, Maroon..All the colors besides beige/taupe are metallic.
Bottom row colors are; reddish brown, teal, forest green, navy, muted taupe/brown, black..last two colors are matte and the rest are metallic.
I think these are the most metallic eye shadows I've ever seen in my life. I usually prefer less metallic and more matte-ish colors so it was a different experience to create looks using these at first. Also I've realized that lighting is pretty important while using these eye shadows, because they are so metallic that you may not be able to see how much you actually applied. At least this is what happened in my case, it may be due to the fact that I'm not used to using them. However, they do last forever on my eyelids and definitely do not crease which is a plus in my book!
Have a great week! <3
Here we go!
Storm is a great palette for pretty much anyone. If you love neutral colors but love to mix it up and do wild looks from time to time, you may want to give this a try! This palette has 12 colors in both matte and metallic finishes. It's mostly metallic though as only 3 of them are matte. These shadows are highly pigmented and are incredibly smooth. They are also easy to work with as they blend very easily.

@ Rainy Days and Lattes, Hi! As far as I know they are not sold in the U.S. but I know they are available for sale on their website (but of course shipping is ridiculously expensive, more than what the palette itself costs!)I got the mine in a swap :)
ReplyDelete@ Curves ahead makeup, I know, unfortunately not! Don't you hate it when a certain product is only sold elsewhere? Then again, we may have stuff they don't have lol
