Sleek Makeup I Divine Oh So Special Eye Palette Review, Photos, Swatches

Hello girls,
Hope you are having a great time.
Today I am here with another review of an eye shadow palette.

OK let's get started. Sleek makeup i divine oh so special eye palette is such a beauty. I really loved it when I saw its shades and swatches. So after a long wait when I found it available at an online page,  just grabbed it( although at a much higher price).

Now let me start with packaging. It comes in a cardboard box with floral prints on it. The palette inside is classy black in color.
When you open the palette, you see 12 shade pans in the rows of 2. A dual ended applicator and a full sized mirror is great.

Also there is a thin transparent plastic film covering the whole shades with the shade name written on it. It is a good thing to keep the pans safe from fall out but in my opinion the shade names must be written on the palette in front of every shade. Now in this case you have to keep that film to remember the shade names and also for reference purpose. Also if you have more than one sleek palettes, you can mix them up by mistake.

So that was a little concern of mine but that just does not affect the beauty and quality of the palette. The shades are truly awesome.
The pigmentation is too good. A very soft silky texture and easily blendable. I really like highly pigmented shadows. Love it when it gives true color in just one swipe.
There are 7 matte and five shimmer shades in it. I'll tell you one by one about them.

Bow........ Off white/ cream matte

Organza....... Pink shimmer

Ribbon.......... Coral pink matte

Gift basket ........ Medium bronze

Celebrate..........Dark purple

Pamper............ Light pink

Gateau.............. Pink with silver tones

The mail........... Camel tone

Boxed............ Dark brown matte

Wrapped up............ Dark taupe matte

Noir............ Black matte.

You can see in above pictures that the shades are highly pigmented even I didn't use any primer for those swatches.

So girls. In my opinion its s fabulous palette that contains so beautiful shades to create so many looks for both day and night time.
Oh I just forgot to tell you that lasting power of these shades is also awesome. They last on my eye lids for more than 7 hours without primer.
I bought it from a Facebook page last year for PKR 1900 which is quite high I know. The palette is available at much low price on different other on line pages. But the time I ordered it, it was out of stock mostly. So girls here is a lesson for you as well that if you are just dying to get some makeup and not getting anywhere, show some patience otherwise you will get the item very expensive.
Any ways, I really love this palette.
You can buy it online. Do some research and compare prices before decision, a little price difference is negligible but not a huge one.

Girls, do give me your feedback about my today's post.

Till next post, take care and stay happy.

My Favorite Makeup Brands

Hey lovelies,

Hope you all are having a great time and gathering the blessings of Ramzan.

Today I am talking about some of my favorite make up brands. These are mostly high end brands , some of them I own and some are in my wish list.

First of all comes foundation. Estee Lauder double wear foundation and Chanel Vita Lumiere aqua skin perfecting makeup are at the top of my wish list. I have heard and read some very good reviews about them specially Estee Lauder double wear foundation.
Another one that I want to get is Nars sheer glow foundation.

In  MAC Cosmetics  I love their lippies and foundations too. Right now I own one MAC foundation and some lippies but still want more. I am always looking for my favorite shades in MAC on different online pages to get my hands on them.

 Urban Decay cosmetics  are also very well known. Their naked eye palettes are the most talked about in the blogosphere. Their naked smokey palette is in my wish list. Let's see when I can get it in my stash.

Loreal Paris is one of the top brands. I like their foundations. In the past I have been using loreal true match, and  that was very good. Recently I have got Loreal Lumi magique foundation and I am trying this beauty these days.

Sleek makeup is also one of my favorite brands in eye shadow palettes and blushes. They are super pigmented and last almost the whole day. And I really love them because of this reason. I am planning to get more Sleek eye palettes.

I am obsessed with highlighters these days. Mary Lou is my all time favorite. But I also want to get some colorpop highlighters like butterfly beach, lunch money, spoon etc. I also fancy Bobbi Brown shimmer bricks. They are love.

The 1992 bowl, bat and trophies on the Golden Carpet Reception of the event was an elegant move by the cricketer, the warmth to share his achievements with his loved ones.
