Sleek Makeup i-Divine Snapshots Palette Review

Ok you folks, Sleek Makeup is something I've been meaning to check out for a while and when I saw they were doing free shipping I just had to get my hands dirty. It took about a week to get to me, not bad at all. Today I bring to you the Snapshots palette.

Availability: This appears to have been discontinued.

Would I buy this again? I can't say for sure yet.
Notes: I chose my palettes based on swatches and the swatches for this looked absolutely stunning, You folks.... this palette just screams my name. Are we seeing these colors? The brights?!? This has two colors that my collection has been in desperate need of because... reasons! Overall, I LOVE this so much, the colors in here are an absolute dream, I can't even express how glad I am to own this.
    According to sleekmakeup.com: "Snapshots i-Divine palette will keep a little bit of summer in your life all year round and is inspired by the vivid colours of the Mediterranean and Caribbean, this palette is the absolute must-have for bright- makeup lovers everywhere. Imitate a Mediterranean sunset with seriously sultry shades of burnt orange, or give a whole new meaning to the post-holiday blues using the three shades of azure to make your tan pop  " I agree 100% this palette really is a must-have for anyone who likes bright eye makeup and its tropical inspiration is just so mermaid-appropriate. *squeal*

Summer Breeze is THE perfect matte mint shade. This is something that was lacking in my collection and I'm so glad to own it, it's superb - buttery, smooth.... gah. I love it! 

Martini is a very frosted off-white champagne shade.

Kiwi Flower is a pretty frosted golden green chartreuse shade.

Lotus Flower is a frosted lavender lilac color, I imagine this would look really beautiful on anyone with a tan.

Humming Bird is a like... WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE? Oh magical eyeshadow, I've longed for you... I've dreamed of the moment we'd both hold each other in our arms... I mean WHAT?! This is mermaid magic - a green-based teal with an intense gold pearl. We about that life!

Tequila Sunrise is a FLIPPING AMAZING intense bright frosted orange that is like the eyeshadow version of a Cheeto. I'm excite... I can't wait to use this. 

Sand Walker is a really nice light "blending out"/transition color for my skin-tone, it's a very soft brown. 

Washed Ashore  is the "blending out"/transition color for deeper/warmer skin-tones - it's that perfect orange-y burnt brown shade. 

Sunset is a frosted reddish copper tone.

Green Iguana is a more blue-ish teal color, which normally I'd prefer but the gold in Humming Bird makes it sickening!

Purple Haze is a matte blue-toned purple, so pretty

Magenta Madness is a matte hot pink, I'd say it was more fuchsia (hot pink) versus magenta (purple-y pink). 

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Sleek Makeup i-Divine Vintage Romance Palette Review

Ok you folks, Sleek Makeup is something I've been meaning to check out for a while and when I saw they were doing free shipping I just had to get my hands dirty. It took about a week to get to me, not bad at all. Today I bring to you the Vintage Romance palette. 

Availability: I'm unsure but this appears to have been discontinued. 

Would I buy this again? I can't say for sure yet.
Notes: I chose my palettes based on swatches and the swatches for this looked absolutely stunning, I wasn't even thinking to pick this particular one up but I was like YOLO and looked up swatches for all the palettes. Part of the reason this appealed to me so much is that the colors are absolutely stunning and I don't have very many berries in my collection so I figured... you know... yolo. That said, when the palettes arrived I, for some reason, thought they'd be larger in size... they are, as the name suggests, sleek and I think that makes for better travel. Anyways, let's get to the goodness, shall we?
    According to sleekmakeup.com: "Vintage Romance collection encapsulates an old world floral affair of dreamy and enchanting shades. Inspired by the sheer beauty of romance; fall head over heels for sparkling, pearlescent, intensely pigmented shades and style yourself up in oh so glamorous Vintage Romance" I kind of have to agree with that because the color collection here really does conjure up florals, berries, kind of romantic Victorian-era colors and is very Autumn and sophisticated-looking. I'm just in love with it for this upcoming fall/holiday season. My only beef with this is that there's no highlight color in here but alas...

Pretty in Paris is a mid-tone silver that leans somewhat white-ish, it has a frosted finish to it. 

Meet in Madrid is a gorgeous frosted golden color, probably my favorite of the golds in the palette.

Court in Cannes is a taupe-y gold. This kind of color is always hard for me to describe because it's a rather warm-toned taupe. Alas, feast your eyes upon the beauty.

Lust in LA is a more silvery, cooler-toned taupe.

Romance in Rome is a smoky dark blue, I'd say it's almost a black with a very intense blue frost to it. 

Propose in Prague is our first matte in the palette and it's a very rosy brown shade. I suppose it'd be nice as a "blending out"/transition crease color for the rest of the shadows in the palette.

A Vow in Venice  is a pretty traditional frosted cranberry color, it has a brown-gold background color to it. 

Marry in Monte Carlo is a frosted true berry color, I was so impressed with this when I swatched it because... I find with berries they may look one way (i.e.: berry red) and swatch another (brown) - true of both lip and eye products. I like this one a lot.

Honeymoon in Hollywood is a matte cranberry with silver sparkles. I feel that the sparkle in the shades that have it doesn't really come out in swatches and can very easily be tapped off - I don't mind this as I'm not a fan of random pieces of chunky glitter in my shadow. If I want glitter I'll apply over the top as I wish. 

Bliss in Barcelona is a smoky purple. Again, like, Romance in Rome, I'd say the color is an off-black with an intense purple/violet frost. 

Forever in Florence is a plummy red with that no-show silver sparkle.

Love in London is a matte charcoal - out of all the shades with the silver glitter this is the only one in which it remotely appears; that said, it doesn't play a major role here at all. 

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Eyeshadow Review: Buxom Room Service Eyeshadow Bar Single

Hey folksickles, so today I'll be reviewing the Buxom Eyeshadow Bar Single in Room Service

Availability: These are currently available at buxom.com and ulta.com where they retail at $12 for 1.4g (.05 oz) or $40 for a palette of 6.
Empty palettes retail at $13 for a 6-pan (at which point I suggest just getting 6 shadows because then the palette is free) or $2 for a single-pan.
Would I buy this again? Possibly.

Notes: Once upon a time I had an amazing manager who wouldn't stop until I bought at least one of these eyeshadows. I won't mention any names. Now, yes, buying 6 is cheaper... if you want all 6... I couldn't make up my mind but as a mermaid I obviously needed a mint-green eyeshadow like... obvi, let's not kid ourselves here.
Anywho, this color is described as an iridescent mint - I'd describe the color of this as a semi-translucent seafoam mint green with a green iridescence, it just glows and I think it would be a gorgeous inner corner highlight over a white base. It also makes a pretty face highlight. It's quite pretty but I wish it was more opaque. The texture on this is really smooth and buttery.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
