I have always been very curious to try Sleek Makeup, but since this brand is not sold in the States and the shipping price was outrageous I never got around to it. I recently saw that the shipping caused as taken a dramatic decrease and I jumped on the chance.
These products are priced fairly cheap. In the UK, this would be considered a drugstore brand, but since it's not accessible in the US, I would consider it more of a luxury. I did not go crazy, because as we all probably know I do not need much more makeup, but can a woman ever have enough blush?! Don't answer that!
These blushes cost $5.99 each, and together the shipping was $2.76, for that price they were definitely worth a try.
I don't think I'm the only, but who really knows, when I'm trying something new I always go for pinks, I feel like you really can't go wrong. Luckily for me, in this case, I wasn't wrong. This color is beautiful. In the package, it looks as if it's a bright Barbie doll pink, definitely a little intimidating. This color is beautiful on the skin, it gives you a great flush and it's definitely buildable. I recommend using a light hand for the daytime, but you can get a little crazier at night for a more bold look.
Another issue with ordering products online that you've never tried or seen, is being able to judge colors. In some situations, I really judge off the products names (I know this isn't really a good idea, but in this situation, it really worked out for me). Rose Gold, what girl can really turn down that? This color is great, I would describe it as a dark coral peach?!?! If that makes any sense! This particular shade is quite shimmering, but I would say that it's a wearable shimmer. The shimmer does transfer, which in a lot of products, I don't prefer, but this blush does work. Just like Pixie Pink, Rose Gold can be built up, but it does give you a wonderful wearable peach color if applied lightly.
Overall, I would definitely purchase from Sleek again (I already have my shopping cart picked out, just have to fill out more information). The first time ordering I was very nervous, and that's why I don't have very many items to show you. I can say, it was a pleasure to order from this company. The products shipped quickly, customer service was great, and the products were in perfect condition when received. I would say it took maybe a week and half to arrive, which I was very surprised by. Also, for a product that might be considered lower end, this packaging is fabulous. It's thick and sleek (see what I did there), and very sturdy.
So, if you're considering giving it a shot, I would say go for it! At least for blushes, that's all I can speak for at the moment!
Thanks for checking everything out!
