Sleek Circus Palette

I love being able to get all excited about a new makeup release guilt free. Even though they have put the prices up (I’m sure it used to be £4something, this was £5.99 at Superdrug) it’s still a bargain. The Sleek iDivine palettes have acquired cult status. This is the 6th limited edition palette, there are 5 permanent ones. Initially I wasn’t interested in them however over the last few months I have developed and obsession and now own every palette ever released... If anyone would like a post/ video going through them all then let me know in the comments!


Anyway back to the circus. Like the Bohemian palette from earlier this year Sleek have deviated from their normal black packaging and gone for something a little bit different. The cardboard box it comes in is adorable and the bright red case certainly stands out! Inside are 12 mineral based eyeshadows in some rather funky bright colours.

They are mainly mattes, something that Sleek normally manage to do rather well actually. Only the dark purple on the top row and the line green and navy on the bottom are shimmery. As is usually the case the shimmery colours all softer and more pigmented but the mattes are, on the whole, still pretty easy to work with. Stand out colours for me include the amazing lime green and that awesome orange. The black is also super pigmented.


The only colours that really let the side down are the matte white and the matte lilac. They just don’t have the payoff that the other colours do. Still for £5.99 for 12 colours I shan’t complain!

It isn’t my favourite Sleek palette if I’m honest. I like it a lot though and think it’s a fab way to add some more mad colours to your collection for an itty bitty price. If you fancy getting one I’d act fast though! These ltd edition palettes don’t hang around for long... xx
