Oooh... another month, another lovely product from Sleek MakeUP. A bit of a change from the usual monthly palette, but fab nontheless... This month we have their Pout Polish.
I was sent the product in the shade "Electro Peach", which in the pot looks exactly like it sounds - really vibrant glossy jelly peach. It comes in four shades - Electro Peach, Pink Cadillac, Chocolate Kiss and Perfect Plum. They are available now at Superdug on special offer - 2 for £6.99. They normally cost £3.91 each, and you get 10g of product.
These are very very similar to MAC tinted lip conditioners, but for a fraction of the price - they appeal for exactly the same reasons - they condition the lips while adding a hint of colour. Perfect for lazy days and "no-makeup makeup". They are also surprisingly well pigmented - when I first opened mine I sloshed it on haphazardly with my fingers expecting it to be very light on colour, but I was so wrong... I ended up looking like a child after a run in with a jam sandwich. Following this, I realised a mirror was handy to have whn applying. This may just be this shade, but normally the quality of Sleek is fairly uniform, so I'm expecting the same from Pink Cadillac, which I plan on picking up...
Here are a couple of piccys to show the effect you can get with the Pout Perfection
Top = nude lips, Bottom pic shows lip with Electro Peach...The product has SPF15, which is great for everday wear, especially in the autumn. They also smell divine - they contain shea butter, almond, jojoba and avocado oils - to me they smell like a mix of almond and coconut - Bonus!
Have any of you tried any other colours? How have you found them? Also, have any of you tried any blushers from the range? I'm interested in any thoughts on those too!

ooohh I've just started playing with my palettes and gel liners, now I have something else that I need. Too bad it takes having someone send it to me in order to get these great products!
I will have to give these a go- I wanted the MAC pink fish lip conditioner but didn't get my hands on it- these look like a good dupe!
I love Sleek- so cheap but amazing quality.

@Nancy power - love the gel liners too - the yellow one is the only thing I've found that works as a base for MAC chrome yellow...
@Daisy - make sure you use that offer at superdrug! xxx
Sounds yummy! I guess I need one lol!
@vampiressdoll - forgot to mention, they taste a bit like vanilla too... so they actually are a bit yummy lol xxx
I really want the pink one!!xx
@Holly - Me to! x
oo if they're on offer at Superdrug I might get all four and then I can use my student discount :D
These look really nice! I'd love to try them, but I've never seen them here.

The offer makes it very tempting to buy the other 2!
Looks really pretty on you ! I have two Superdrugs near me but neither have that Sleek range in it, typical :)
Hey, thank you for following and for your comment! I was actually planning on buying Illamasqua Dystopia collection this week and trying out loads of the looks! It's such a sleek, sexy range I can't wait to get it! So yes I will enter you next competition!
I read you post on it, the make up looks fantastic on you!
And is that you in the title banner? the make up is brilliant!!
Unfortunately there's no stockist where I am. :( Might as well, I'm still doing the No Buy Challenge till Nov! :)
@Suzie Maraschino - It is me but unfortunately I can't take credit - Krystal who works for Illamasqua and helps me judge the contests did it!
I've recently bought the peach and pink of these sleek lip conditioners- i totally agree with you they are a better value version of mac.
I did a review on my blog of them, i love them- if im honest i actually prefer these to mac because the pigmentaion is far better :)
So why have I never heard of Sleek before? I best get myself down to Superdrug sharpish! The pink one looks lovely, I definately need it and I can't believe how well priced they are!
Great blog
