I don't get the reputation this has?
I always research a product before I buy it, read reviews and look at swatches online; I researched this palette before purchasing. The packaging is very nice for even a product of a $30 value, I would say it is true to the brand's name and is very sleek and feels durable. The palette comes in a cardboard box and mine was just thrown into a bubble mailer, so I had a broken eyeshadow in each of the two palettes I received. I believe mailing in a box with airbag filler or peanuts would prevent this.The eyeshadows have a buttery texture that is much better than most drugstores level eyeshadows, but despite the texture I do not find these to be better than less costly pigmented shadows such as NYX, and a far cry from calling them just as good as high end shadows. I find the darker colors especially to appear more muddy than vibrantโthe vibrant product photo is, in my opinion, a far cry from the actual shadows. The green, gray, blue and coppery shades all appear to be the same value or brightness, like they are the same color and just tinted slightly differently. That is to say, if I swatch the blue, green, and gray colors next to each other on my hand, there's not much distinction, and upon swiping my finger over the swatches on my hand most of the color disappears and all that is left is a muddy tint. So you aren't getting a lot of variation in this palette other than the two matte browns which I actually really like. The black is a decently opaque and dark black, but not superbly inky or black.For the price point I think this is a decent palette, the two matte browns are great, but as a whole the blues and greens are forgettable and lackluster, and even with a good solid primer from Nars or Urban Decay, they faded quickly.

A Great Palette with Great Pigmintation
This palette was recommended to me by a friend in London. They sell Sleek in their drug stores in the UK and I had been wanting to try something for a while. I LOVE neutrals, so this was ideal. I had been wanting some greys as well for my collection. The packaging rivals MAC or any other high end make-up brand. Nice big mirror, so it is ideal for on-the-go touch ups. When travelling, this is a good palette because it has some light colors and some dark. It can be used for day and night looks. The black color is great for eye-liner alternative or to set liquid eye-liner. The brush is a typical sponge tip, but I just replaced it with a travel sized MAC brush from a set my husband bought me for my birthday. The pigmentation is amazing and long-lasting. Some are shimmer, some are matte. A really great buy!

Sleek storm palette
I love this palette. I was fortunate enough to buy it for around $11 and that is great buy because sleek is a uk brand so basically I didn't really have to pay shipping. But back to the palette... every shade is pigmented with no fall out. I love how many eye looks you can make with this with browns, gold, champagne, a shimmery pink. If you like neutral palettes with a few wearable colors of gunmetal, green, dark blue thrown in I would get this! the only con is the matte brown broke a little while shipping but that is a shipping concern where they should have packed it with bubble wrap better and not at all about the palette itself. Oh and it can be a little hard to open the first couple times. It doesn't really open easily.

Love this palette, not the packaging...(???)
I'm sad I can't get Sleek products in the US but found it on amazon...amazing palette for its price with really nice pigmented colors, great nudes that can compete with the nude palette IMO (buying more expensive makeup doesn't mean you apply it any better!)It came nicely, seemingly unopened, in its little Sleek brand box but when I opened it, not sure what happened, there was a screw in the hinge completely missing. So now it only has one screw on the right hinge and doesn't close properly and moves around when I try to use the mirror. :( So that's that...guess I can't take it traveling.

If you haven't researched this palette- go do so!
If you research this palette you will see how awesome it is. The color payoff is great, and I imagine that if you use a primer it'd be even better. Most of the colors in this palette are shimmery rather than matte. They last a long time, I bought this as a gift for a friend and she can't stop raving about it. I even have the urge to buy another one, just for me.As far as packaging and shipping goes- that was also well. The palette comes inside it's own box wrapped around in bubble wrap and that is put inside an envelope. Even though it is coming from UK I believe the time it took to get to me in FL was rather quick. Sleek just seems like a great cheap makeup brand.

Ahhhhhhhhhh
I Adore Thiss. The quality is amazing, it's neutral but you could still make a smokey eye with the gem tones in the palette, and it's affordable!!!! This is better quality than some of the palettes that I bought at sephora and had to return. The only con that I found is that they didn't include a matte cream shade for highlight. If I were to take this to travel with I'd have to bring along a single eyeshadow. But it is still a very lovely palette, I highly recommend it. I'll be posting a review on my youtube channel soon :)

Great Palette!
The color pigmentation is fantastic, along the lines of MAC and Urban Decay. This is the only palette that I need along with Naked2 to recreate every look possible. I am tempted to purchase the Sleek iDivine OhSoSpecial palette from this brand as well. It has the coral and pink colors that look amazing in the summer season. With shipping, this palette isn't as much of a 'steal' as they brag about in Europe. However, I still find the price reasonable for the quality that you get over drugstore brands.

Pleasantly AMAZED!
This was my very first Sleek palette and I am totally in love with it! The quality and pigmentation is A+!!! I was eyeing out this Storm one in particular for a few weeks before forking out on it and I do not regret it. The palette has 3 matte and 9 shimmery colors and they are so much more beautiful in person than in the picture TRUST ME! I have green eyes and every single color in this palette looked absolutely stunning on me. I am going to buy a few more palettes of Sleek in other shades and throw away all other eye shadows

Perfect! Great Colour range! Quality product!
I bought this eye shadow palette for my daughter (who is 23) as a gift. The palette has a great range of colours, some soft and others a little brighter or a little darker giving plenty of choice for whatever make up look you are going for a strong evening make up or a softer day time look. I should also add the colour range throughout the Sleek palettes are all go with each other. So colours from another palette will go with the colours of this one too. Gorgeous product. Great quality product. Would definitely purchase again. Have bought from Boots before but have found a wider range of palettes on Amazon. So it will be Amazon from now on!
