REVIEW: SLEEK STORM PALETTE & REAL TECHNIQUES BRUSH SET, ETC.

18:12:00

Hello my loves,

this week I have a couple of reviews in store for you, concerning the following products:

Sleek i-Divine Palette "Storm"

Sleek Blush "Rose Gold"

Real Techniques Brush Set

Real Techniques Beauty Blender

Manhattan Good to Glow Liquid Highlighter



So let's start with the wonderful Sleek Storm palette.


I know this was hyped like 2 years ago, however I was only able to get my hands on it now (since some genius finally decided to bring Sleek to Germany I am forever thankful!!!). I have to say it was hyped for every reason, this palette is simply amazing. It was hardly 10€ and you get a total of 12 shadows.




What can I say? The price is amazing for the amount of product and the quality you get! I love the colours, especially the greenish and the burgundy-ish shades since I don't have anything similar and I'm sure I'll get a ton of us out of this palette this fall.


Swatches (from left to right): Electric Storm, Storm Cloud, Gathering Storm, Dust Storm, Fire Storm & Perfect Storm



To stay with the brand let's move on to my very first Sleek blush.

This on is in the shade Rose Gold. I have to say it is absolutely beautiful, it was 5€ I believe which is totally worth it I think! It is by far my most favourite blush I own, again especially for fall.


It is a beautiful chimney red with beautiful golden speckles in it. Gives the face a nice warm look.


Plus, I mean can we talk about Sleeks packaging for a bit? I'm in love.


Now let's talk brushes. I picked up this Real Techniques Brush set at TK Maxx (TJ Maxx in some countries) the other day for not even 18€.


It is an amazing basic set containing a bigger buffing brush which I use to apply my powder, a contouring brush, a pointed foundation brush and a detailler brush. It also comes with a cute bag that's super handy for travelling. These are my first high quality brushes and I am super content with the set. I definitely need to splurge on a blush brush and a couple more eyeshadow brushes, but this is a good start.



I know, I know: DIRTY BEAUTY BLENDER ALERT!!!! Sorry guys, but I couldn't wait to try this out..... it's just makeup okay???? So this is the infamous Real Techniques Beauty blender which I picked up for roughly 5€.

I am more than content with it, it is super soft and easy to work with, a lot better than my old beauty blender for sure! Makes the whole process of dabbing foundation and especially concealer in a LOT easier!


Last but not least let's talk about this rather unknown (?) product (so far): the Manhattan Good to Glow Liquid Highlighter.


I thought this might be a good dupe to the L'Oréal True Match Lumi Liquid Highlighters that are a bit more expensive. It comes quite close to the shade 'Ice' if you ask me. It's even comparable to Benefits High Beam, which is - as we all know - a lot pricier.  I'm really happy with this purchase, gives an amazing glow, I usually apply this under my foundation and then bring it back out with a regular powder highlighter. This was around 4€ by the way.

So there you go, I hope you enjoyed my review. Let me know if you've tried any of these products!

Lots of love,

Selina xxx
