The latest offering from Sleek is a new palette called the Bohemian palette... apparently this was inspired by "antique trinkets, vintage finds and Sienna Miller". Now, when I read the bit about Sienna Miller, I almost turned "agin" this palette on principle - I find the woman so pippin annoying... Luckily, this palette is good enough for me to forgive the Sienna reference...
Sleek have changed up the packaging on this on, with a cardboard cover, and a white palette - Personally, I love the cardboard cover, it is a lot easier to open, and looks a lot more attractive than the usual plastic carton they come in. I love the artwork too...
Here they are in more detail;
These are the four shadows on the left side - a mossy green, copper, cranberry red, and a flesh coloured matte shade.
The middle four shadows are all matte, as are the four on the far right of the palette;
The other matte palette available from Sleek (the Chaos palette) was previously the one palette I was disappointed with, as the matte shadows seemed to have poor colour payoff and were difficult to blend - Sleek have really improved the quality of the matte shades in this, and I found this palette really easy to work with.
The shades included in the palette lend themselves to a variety of different looks from neutral to smoky to bright... rather than swatch all the shades, I got a bit carried away and tried to recreate the look illustrated on the box...
Here is my (admittedly quite crap) attempt - I had fun trying!
I used loads of the colours in the palette, and I thing they are really well pigmented - the palette is well worth it at £4.99 for 12 shadows.
Sleeks website is also back up and running too - they ship internationally...
