Review & Swatches: Sleek MakeUP Blushers

It's time to explore some more products from Sleek MakeUP, and this time it's all about their gorgeous blushes! 

Let’s start with packaging! All Sleek blushes come in a matte black mirrored case which is very similar to Nars packaging. The case looks very classy and sturdy however it catches dust very easily. Apart from that, the only problem I have with the packaging is that it is shut very tightly so it’s slightly hard to open especially when you’re in a hurry. 

Now onto the blushes! First I have Pixie Pink which is a bright matte Barbie pink with cool undertones. Although it looks super bright in the pan, it doesn’t come off as bright when applied therefore it gives a fresh and natural flush to cheeks. The texture of the blush is very soft which makes it very easy to blend. It’s the perfect everyday colour – especially for that Spring glow!

Flushed is a plum toned matte colour with red undertones which makes it perfect for darker skin tones. You’re probably already thinking that the colour looks scary but if you apply it with a light hand, it can look very natural as if you’re a bit flushed (as the name states). Then if you like a bolder look, its smooth consistency makes it very buildable so you have control over how much colour you want. This one is a favourite of mine since it’s a very unique colour.

Suede is a light terracotta shade with peach undertones. It’s basically an everyday shade because it looks very natural and  just gives a warmer look to your complexion. Like the previously mentioned blushes, Suede has a silky smooth texture which makes it super blendable and it also has a slightly satin finish despite it being almost matte. Definitely a must have!

Pomegranate is a rich berry shade with microscopic specks of golden shimmer. This is the perfect fall/winter shade.  It’s suitable for all skin tones especially those with medium to dark skin tones would rock this shade. Even with the golden specks of shimmer I mentioned earlier, when applied it does not look too shimmery but it gives a nice radiant sheen to the skin. This blush also blends like a dream and it does not get patchy throughout the day.

Pros of the Sleek Makeup Blush:

-Affordable

-Super pigmented so a little goes a long way

-Soft, silky and easy to blend texture

-No scent

-Longlasting

-Finely milled thus it does not accentuate pores

Cons:

-Packaging is slightly hard to open

-If not applied with a light hand, it might come off too strong.

 These Sleek single blushes are super affordable not to mention they are not tested on animals which is a huge plus! These blushes can be found online here or locally at Melita Health and Beauty (visit their facebook for daily updates and also visit them on April 1st and 2nd for a Sleek MakeUP weekend!)
