Superdrug Haul - Sleek Make-up

I popped into Superdrug before work on saturday... and it was 3 for 2 on all make-up, so i obviously had to buy a few things...


I've been looking at trying some sleek makeup for a while now as i've noticed it gets alot of good reviews from Bloggers and Youtubers, and i've been trying to build my makeup artist kit up with good quality products... so hopefully i can save myself some money if this drugstore brand is up to scratch :)

I was immediately drawn to the Pout Paints... and i'm guessing that they are a dupe for the OCC Lip Tars? All the colours are GORGEOUS! It was so hard to just choose three.


The colours i ended up getting were (from left to right) Milkshake, Pinkini and Mauve Over, they have quite a thick lipgloss like consistancy, but the formula is so pigmented and opaque its unreal... and you only need the tiniest amount! So for £4.99 each these will last quite a while...
The other swatch (far right) is the Pout Polish, its pretty much like a vaseline type texture with a hint of colour, which is nice for during the day, the colour i chose was Monte Carlo, a purple/ pink colour and it was £4.29.



I also picked up this eyeshadow palette in 'Acid', i already have the 'Storm' palette which i think is really good for the price (£6.79) so i thought i'd try another... i dont have many bright shadows in my makeup kit so i figured this would come in useful!


I'm quite impressed, the colours are all really pigmented, except for the white, which barely shows up at all.... but for the price you can afford too get a few naff/ dissapointing colours! However, they are a tad powdery, but this doesnt affect the colour payoff at all, so it doesn't really bother me.

Because i'd bought 5 Sleek products i needed to get something else for free... so i just picked up the Barry M white foundation which can also go in my makeup kit...

Overall i am really impressed with Sleek Makeup! And i will definatley be picking up a few more palettes... and maybe even a few more Pout Paints!
