If you remember a little while ago, I posted a major haul (You can read about it here) and the Sleek MakeUP Blush by 3 in Pumpkin was one of the goodies I picked up! I had a few people request that I do a review on it, and so I decided to show you all my thoughts on it!
As always with Sleek, the packaging is simple and travel friendly. I love the black look, it makes the product feel a lot more expensive than it is!
The back of the palette itself gives you all the information you need, including the cute names for the colours!
Lantern, Squash, P Pie
The colours on this particular palette are rather bright, and a little bit intimidating for most. I wasn't exactly sure how these would go on my pale skin, but nevertheless I was determined to find out!
Swatched!
Lantern, Squash, P Pie
Swatched - Lantern
My favourite of the trio was definitely Lantern. Lantern is a really lovely coral colour, with a very slight amount of shimmer. I find this one is most suited to my skin and hair colour, and gives a more subtle look.
The other two colours are equally as lovely, with Squash being a little more sheer than the other two, as it is a matte blush. P Pie is the most intimidating, an extremely bright orange blush! I gave it a go and found that it ended up looking a little more like a bronzer, which was perfect for contouring, but still lovely as a blush.
The only issue I have with Sleek blushes is that they tend to be almost too pigmented! Too much product and you will look like a clown, so just be sparing! Depending on your skin tone and your all around general look, these colours are definitely wearable, and aren't as extreme as they seem to be!
I have had a lot of fun wearing P Pie the last few days (I'll be sure to include it in a FOTD sometime soon!) and I really like the look! All in all, I'd definitely buy this again and I'm interested in trying out some of the other colours they have available! I already have "Lace" which is the most neutral of all the Blush by 3's.
Have you tried the Sleek MakeUP Blush by 3 yet? If so, what did you think?
I really like Sleek's packaging too and Lantern is my favourite as well :D I'm obsessed with coral these days :) x

What gorgeous blush shades. I wish we had SLEEK cosmetics here in Australia.
ReplyDeleteSame, I wish it was as readily available as it is in the UK, but at least we can order and have it shipped here, some of their beautiful goodies can't even be shipped to the US! :(
