Sleek Oh So Special Palette Swatches!

Welcome back to the Sleek Swatch-a-thon! :)

Today's swatches are of the Sleek Oh So Special palette. I really love this palette, it has lots of pretty neutral shades which up until recently wasn't seen that often in Sleeks palettes, but since they have released another  named the Au Natural palette. I have yet to own that one but definitely have my eyes on it :P

The packaging is pretty and stylish, one of those types of packaging that are pretty to display on your vanity which is cool :D


Below you can get an overall idea of the shades you get:



All Swatches were done over a base of NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk.
And here are the swatch photos of the first row Without Flash:

And With Flash :)

Bow is a lovely cream coloured highlight shade, that leans to more of a warmer tone and is a matte finish.
Organza is a pink based pale copper shade with a lovely peachy sheen to it.
Ribbon is a pretty peach toned coral and is matte.
Gift Basket is a medium warm toned bronze shade with golden shimmer.
Glitz a really pretty medium silver with lots of pink and green shimmer, giving it a really pretty finish when applied.
Celebrate is a dark warm toned brown with a gorgeous pink shimmer/sheen to it.

Onto Row 2, Without Flash:

And With Flash:

Pamper is pale pastel peach matte shade.
Gateau is a stunning pale rose gold shade with a pretty golden sheen.
The Mail is a light camel shade, and is a matte finish.
Boxed is a cool toned medium brown matte shade.
Wrapped Up makes me think of a matte version of Celebrate, and is a medium brown shade with slight purple undertones to it.
Noir is Sleeks staple black matte shadow, and is featured quite a lot in their palettes.

I love how Sleek are one of those brands that you rarely have to worry about a shade of theirs  disappointing pigmentation wise. And the shadows themselves always have a lovely buttery texture to them. Loving the fact there are more matte shades than shimmer in this palette, I really like the formulation of their matte shadows!
This palette can still be found on Sleeks website 
So, if you can I recommend getting it there rather than EBay as sellers tend to mark the prices up way higher than the official website sells them for.

More Swatches Coming Tomorrow Lovelies!
