I popped into Superdrug in Westfield this afternoon to pick up a Sleek Face Contour Kit and guess what I saw?!
Oh yes! They put it out early! It's not on Sleek's website yet. I got the second last one and the poor girl at the till was sighing with everything she scanned through for me saying 'I want to get one of these!' The packaging is bright but I love it, what else could a 'circus' one be?!

The colours are extremely bright, but more workable that the Acid iDivine. The midnight blue colour (on the far right in the photo below) is my favourite, and all the others are as pigmented as we've come to expect from Sleek. The only disappointment is the white shade - not pigmented at all as you can see from the swatch (or not as the case may be!) between the purple and dark blue swatches below. There's also a good balance between matte and shimmery shadows.

I'm looking forward to creating some bright summer looks with this palette!
Will you be picking up Circus?
ARGH! I AM SO JEALOUS OF YOU!
ReplyDeleteI've been so desperate to get my hands on this, you have no idea! Well done on managing to get it :P I personally love the bright shades in Acid so creating looks with this one should be easy :p
Yes there were a crowd of girls around the Sleek stand when I walked up so I knew something was up! I think the merchandiser just goofed up as the official date is 7th July, but it's worth having a look in a Superdrug near you! The Westfield Superdrug also messed up the Bohemian release - I literally went there everyday looking for it following the release, and finally gave up thinking I'd missed the boat. I just happened to go past the Sleek stand a few weeks later and a bunch of them were out! Anyway, it's all good, got the palettes I wanted. Although I had to pay stupid money on eBay to get my hands on Graphite!
ReplyDelete:O OMG WTF! I bet its not there tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThere was one left but it was slightly grubby, and the till girl may have nabbed it! I'm sure they'll put out more on 7th!
