Sleek Sparkle palette swatches & EOTDs

Aww, gorgeous... I had to get this LE palette from Sleek makeup! I bought some palettes from London (my swatches here) but this time I tested their webshop. Delivery time was ok, 2.5 weeks to Finland. I've heard they had a lot of problems with the -50% day... I'm in fact glad I didn't notice that :P Hope you got your orders already!

Sparkle palette is sparkly, surprise. LOL. The colors are SO soft & pigmented, the not sparkly ones (Gold ribbon & Tinsel) seem to be excellent, satiny eyeshadows. I haven't tested Noir yet but it feels like matte, not satiny. All the sparkly colors have quite a lot of glitter in them, so if you don't like glitter, don't buy this palette. When there is glitter, there is also fall out... So add some powder (like silk powder) under you eyes. I like the sparkly ones and those are not difficult to use (at least if you are used to glittery colors).

Minun oli pakko tilata tämä Limited Edition Sparkle-paletti Sleek Makeupilta! Ostin tosiaan muutamia Lontoosta (swatchini löytyvät täältä) mutta tällä kertaa testasin tilaamista suoraan verkkokaupastaan. Toimitus oli ihan kohtuullinen, noin 2,5 viikkoa. Sleekillä oli vähän aikaa sitten -50% päivä ja silloin tilatuista suurin osa taitaa olla vielä "matkalla"... Oikeastaan ihan hyvä, etten huomannut tuota päivää, oli kuulemma katastofaalinen :P

Sparkle paletti on nimensä mukaisesti kimalteleva :) Värit ovat pehmoiset ja erittäin pigmenttiset. Mukana on myös muutama satiini-koostumus (Gold ribbon & Tinsel), ne ovatkin ihanat. Noir taas vaikuttaa enemmän mattaiselta, sitä en tosin ole testannut vielä meikissä. Muissa sävyissä on paljon glitteriä mukana, joten jos sellaiset eivät miellytä, ei kannata tietenkään tätä hankkia. Ja aina kun mukana on glitteriä, sitä tippuu myös poskille... Suosittelenkin suojaamaan silmänaluset esim. silkkipuuterilla. En kuitenkaan koe näitä mitenkään erikoisen hankaliksi käyttää (kuten esim Urban Decayn glitterpommit), tottumista toki alkuun vaativat.





Terrible EOTD but I'll publish it anyway, just to show the colors. I used Tinsel (lid), Starlight (crease) & Festive (middle of the lid, lower lashline).





And a look with gold & green (Mistletoe), these were hard to blend together. I loved both colors but other combo would be better!






The green was so pretty, so I tested it with BFTE Lucky Me too:






Hope you liked the pictures, the palette is lovely :D

  4. This palette didn't tempt me at all at first (meh) but seeing the second look you did (perfect color association, it looks exactly like your eyes) changed my mind. In fact, it's a great palette!

    I only own one Sleek palette (Graphite), the pigmentation is great and the colors really vibrant. But damn. All those fall outs... :P

  6. Hmm, you call that terrible EOTD? Puh-lease! Your EOTDs are always beautiful, so I really don't know what you're saying there.

    The colours in this palette are awesome! Pigmentation is certainly excellent. Anyway, I hope you'll have a fantastic and happy New Year, Nea! :)

  8. I love to see your painted eyes, and I'm still awaiting for the neon swatches :P by the way, the colour "Cranberry" is amazing! Will it be one EOTD soon? I really beg you to make EOTD with the neons in Sleek Acid palette and Cranberry from this one, please! I'm so anxious to see those in your eyes!

  10. Silhouette: Yes, the colors are lovely <3

    Akuma Kanji: Neon looks are coming, but I think later this spring... I don't feel like using them now :/ The cool winter light & neons might be too much for me. LOL. But I'll try to do looks more quickly :)

Silk Naturals mini-review, lip gloss swatches & EOTD with Charmed

I've been a customer of Silk Naturals nearly two years and the cs has always been excellent. The owner of the company is Karen and she always nice & helpful. My favorites from this company are lip glosses! Silk Naturals has both sheer and more opaque ones, my favorites are very natural ones like: Olen ollut Silk Naturals in asiakas jo lähes 2 vuotta ja asiakaspalvelu firmassa pelaa erittäin hyvin. Firman omistaa Karen, jonka mies on muuten suomalainen ;) Karen on aina vastaillut nopeasti kyselyihini. Omat suosikkini firmalta ovat huulikiillot. Näitä löytyy sekä läpikuultavia että peittävämpiä, suosikkini ovat luonnolliset sävyt kuten: 1. Foreplay (shimmery golden pink) 2. Berry Crush (golden berry, MAC Viva glam V clone) 3. Divine. Oh, my favorite and I couldn't find it from SN website :-O Eek! 4. Darling (peachie pink) These glosses are in slim tubes, I'll try lip gloss wands asap ;) I also liked solid frangrances a lot (Raspberry gingerale & Sexy Vanilla) but may...

shopping in Germany: Alverde & Alterra

Ok, I was in Germany like... in April ;) Well, I bought a lot of Alverde products from DM, the quality is excellent and the prices are VERY affordable! Just a few words about the products and a question. I LOVE Alverde shampoos & conditioners. Most of these products haven't been eco certiified before but I noticed that the Avocado series is now Natrue certified :-O Unfortunately it's not as good as it used to be... Not terrible but not great either, definitely not the product I expected it to be. Yes I know, it's certified now ;) Do you know if Alverde is planning to reformulate all of the shampoos and conditioners? If so, my suitcase will be much lighter in the future. Alverde body butter is THE BEST :D I also like the body lotions. Cranberry hand cream smells SO good... This time I tested some Alterra products from Rossmann too, I must say that I also like these a lot! I tested shampoos, hair conditioner, body lotion, hand cream etc. Just the eye makeup remov...

Mineralissima mineral makeup review

I got some products from Minerallisima for review purpose and for a giveaway :D I have so much mineral makeup that I REALLY can't buy anything anymore so it was great to test a new brand! Mineralissima's website is pleasant to browse and everything seemed very professional. Prices are affordable and so is the shipping. You can also get customer service in Finnish in this company :D And in many other lanquages as well. LOL Tästä postauksesta olisi tullut erittäin sekava kahdella kielellä, joten tällä kertaa vain englanniksi. Hyvä uutinen on se, että Mineralissiman sivut ovat myös suomeksi (ja ei todellakaan google translatella käännetyt ;D). Myös asiakaspalvelua saa Suomeksi! Sivut ovat mukavat selailla ja tuotteet myös todella laadukkaan oloiset. Voin suositella ja tilaan myöhemmin täältä lisääkin testattavaa/ täysikokoisia tuotteita :) Mineralissima foundation 1.2 gives medium (to heavy) coverage on my skin. The color is light (peachy) neutral. I love this foundation...
