The innovative creators at Sleek Cosmetics know that makeup
should be versatile enough to suit your lifestyle and chic enough to match your
wardrobe so they recently released 2 fabulous new palettes! This collection
features trendy shades that effortlessly transition from a day at the office to
a night on the town, but you can’t have trendy new shadows without pouty
pigments! The flattering new Lip Veils instantly boost your entire look and the
vibrant hues keep you fashionable all season long.
The daytime palette fitting named - A New Day consists of 12
shades including nudes, gold, silver, brown, cream, peach, champagne and taupe. Six of the shadows are shimmers and 6 are matte for the perfect balance of
texture and basic hues to enhance the lids, add definition and highlight.
These chic shadows are simple yet pretty and suitable for
all complexions. I love that there are so many great transition shades which
expertly blend colors together for beautiful fluidity. The texture is velvety smooth and slightly creamy with a soft finish but you can layer over
primer to make them pop! Although quite sheer, the shimmers provide a multidimensional finish and adding a dab around the tear ducts can make eyes appear wide and bright. Since
the shadows are subtle they look fantastic with a wash of bright lipstick.
As the sun sets and you break out your little black dress
and sexy heels, a bit more glamour might be in order. The second Palette (All
Night Long) is inspired by popular cocktails and includes neutral hues mixed
with eye-catching gold, shimmery bronze, radiant silver and a beautiful copper
that I can’t wait to experiment with. The dark brown is perfect for deep crease contouring and the silky
shimmers go perfectly with a sharp winged liner and bright red lips.
The pigmentation of the deeper shades is better than the sheer silvery tones but they can all be enhanced by layering. If you are on the hunt for an affordable palette with a
great mix of very wearable, universally flattering neutrals and shimmers, these are a great option. They
retail for just $11.99 ea.
To balance soft shadows, the sassy new Lip Veils are super
vibrant! There are 6 brand new shades inspired by red carpet premieres, high
fashion and celebrity photo shoots so you can pucker up and unleash your inner
diva.
The luxuriously creamy, long-lasting formula glides on smoothly
to deliver a dose of high intensity, vibrant pigmentation that applies
full-coverage, lush and a little mousse-like. The velvety finish is semi-matte with a touch of shine and
very solid color. Each lipstick is infused with nourishing shea butter and
coconut oil to moisturize lips and prevent dryness plus the scent is light and pleasant.
Like most of the packaging, the tubes are very simple but I wish the names were printed on the bottom instead of on a
sticker at the side. With the exception of Private Booth the rest of the colors
are very bright which definitely evokes the essence of spring!
