Sleek has always been one of my go to brands, its affordable with a touch of luxury. Plus I love the elegant black packaging. When I came across the Sleek Make-up party gift set I just had to get my hands on it. I got my box for Rs.5,700 from an online makeup store on face book called Star Makeup. I just had to get it since the box is worth a lot more than this.
It was available for pre order and I must add that I am super happy with the service and pricing of this page. I've seen prices for it go up to 11,000 on some pages.

The gift set contains:

* I-Divine Storm Palette (Rs.1500-2000)
*Blush by 3- Pink Lemonade (Rs.1700-2000)

*Brow Kit – Dark (Rs.1300-1500)

So if you total it the original cost of the box would have been somewhere near Rs.11,000-13,400 depending on what prices the pages offer.
-My Experience-
*I- Divine Storm Palette
Ok so the first thing in the box I got my hands on was the eye shadow palate This is a very beautiful mix of mattes and shimmers. The pigmentation of some colors is not awesome but for the price it’s a good deal. This is a great palate for travelling and it comes with a really large good quality mirror. The only down set for me in this was the applicator which was a sponge tip.
*Precious Metals Highlighting Palette
This is a very gorgeous highlighter quad it includes 3 cream and one powder highlighter. The packaging is a gorgeous dull gold; It comes with a mirror and small brush. The mirror I love but the brush for me is unusable, it isn't worth keeping its very rough and doesn't work well with applying any of the highlighters.
The cream highlighters are very smooth and pigmented but I’m not much of a fan of cream products, especially because my base is usually powder. However if you do apply cream highlighter you will love them they are quite thick and creamy even when applied over my powder foundation they don’t tend to disturb it much. I love using the cream formulas for highlighting my eyes it looks lovey. The one I love out of the 4 is the powder highlighter it blends inn with my makeup and gives a very natural finish. If the quad had 2 creams and 2 powders that would work much better if you ask me.
*Blush by 3- Pink Lemonade
This trio contains 3 really lovely colored blushes, 2 powders and 1 cream in the middle. They are perfect for light skin tones since the shades are pretty light but they are very pigmented even for darker skin.
The cream blush is highly pigmented and when applying you don’t need much of the product.
The favorite out of the 3 for me is the peach powder blush which looks lovely on my skin tone.
*Eye & Cheek – See You At Midnight
This is the go to palate when you want something small and compact to take along with you. It comes with 4 eye shadows and 2 blushes. I find the palate very dark for me and won’t be using it much. I love the blushes in it though. In fact I think I love all the blushes that sleek has to offer. But then again the brushes that come with it are totally useless.

*Brow Kit- Dark:
Iv always been on the lookout for a decent brow kit, but most of the stores had it out of stock. It has one wax formula and one cream and comes with tiny brushes and tweezers. I love the formula and pigmentation.
The brushes in this case are very good and I would use these with the cream and powder duo when travelling.

*Full Fat Lash Mascara. I am not a big fan of mascaras, but I must say Im in love with it. The shape of the mascara wand is unique to any mascara that I own. The ball point allows you to apply the mascara easily, focusing at the tip.
Gloss me – Hawaii Honey
Now this was the thing I was most unsure about. But the lipgloss I actually very sheer with a touch of soft shimmer. It feels great after application, and gives a very subtle watery effect. Its personally my favorite gloss up till now.
