I was getting ready this morning and searching around for the latest Sleek blush that I bought because I wanted to use it, Can you believe that I wanted a change from Rockateur? I didn't think it was possible either!
Anyway I was digging around my blush drawer for it and I noticed that I own a few more Sleek blushes than I thought. I then thought hey I don't think I've done a post on any of these, turns out the only one I have done a post of was Rose Gold, a very long time ago! So here's swatches of the Sleek blushes that I own, hopefully it will be useful to some of you who are after some of these.
|
Antique |
Antique is the most recent Sleek blush purchase for me. It's a really strange shade, but so beautiful. I'd describe it as being a muddy pink brown shade. When I say muddy it isn't a bad thing here! When applied to the cheeks the pink in the blush comes out more, this shade is so flattering and has become one of my favourite blushes!
|
Coral |
Coral is exactly that, a lovely bright coral shade. I don't find it orange toned at all and on me at least it comes off exactly the same on the cheeks as it does in the pan. I need to be careful with this though because it's so bright it's easy to over do it with this one. I haven't got much wear out of this yet as I bought it at the start of Autumn last year but I'm going to be breaking this out over Spring and Summer - I think it's the perfect shade for the warmer seasons!
|
Pomegranate |
I am so in love with this blush! Perfect for Autumn and Winter, Pomegranate is a lovely berry shade with plenty of shimmer through it. It look scary in the pan but is just so gorgeous on the cheeks! If you're going to buy any Sleek blushes this is one of the ones that I would say is a must to have!
|
Rose Gold |
Rose gold was the first Sleek blush I purchased. I can't say enough good things about this blush, and along with Pomegranate, I think everyone should own this shade above any of the others! It's just the most lovely pink/peach shimmery shade and apparently a NARS Orgasm dupe. Mine is a little old now and I definatley need to buy a new one because I love it so much!
|
Suede |
I bought Suede because I had heard great things about it being great for contour on paler skin. It didn't work for me as its too orange, but with a light hand it's a pretty nice neutral blush. I use this shade the least but it's still lovely none the less.
Hopefully this will be helpful if you're looking to get a few Sleek blushes! They're such great blushes, great shades and they are among the most pigmented of blushes I've ever tried - especially great as they are under a tenner!
What Sleek blushes do you have in your collection? What ones are your favourites?
I own pomegranate but think it looks a little too deep on me. I really want Rose Gold it looks so nice!! xx

I thought that at first too but I barely touch off the blush now and make sure I tap off excess and it's really lovely when you do it that way :) x
DeleteThey are all so beautiful, I think I need to build myself a little collection :o) Xx

Aren't they? I'm eyeing up the new blush by 3's that are out with the new palette now as well - because I really need more blusher when I have a drawer overflowing with it already! haha! x
DeleteI've got the Lace blush by 3 but I really like the look of Antique and Suede. I've just heard Boots have started selling Sleek as well, yessss! x

I can only get Sleek online here so far, but at least I can still get it! I like Suede too, just not as much as the others I own x
DeleteThank you Daniella! x
ReplyDeleteI've heard so many good things about the Sleek line, especially their blushes. I've always wanted to try it out. The Pomegranate shade looks really nice!
ReplyDeleteI use the Stila Perfect Portrait of a Cheek palette for blush at the moment.

Thank you! I think Sleek has such a great variety of blush shades that there's something for everyone and for every season but I think Rose gold seems to be a firm favourite of everybody's! x
DeleteI love love sleek blushes. Its not available in North America so shipping usually costs 10 dollars. Same price as the product lol. Great review.

The shipping price wouldnt be so bad if you were ordering a few things but not for just one blush - it's a shame it's so high x
Deletei am now a major fan of sleek blush!!ive got the rose gold one too but haven't tried it properly yet!ive just bought the pumpkin blush palette to add to my collection and can't wait to try them all out:)i love their pigmentation!they are much better than some high end blushes!:)xx
ReplyDeleteRose gold is beautiful isn't it? I'm sure you'll love it when you try it properly! What do you think of the pumpkin palette? I've always thought it looked pretty scary! x
