SLEEK Carribbean eyeshadow palette in Curacao [review w swatches and LOOKS!!]
HELLO GUYS!!
I have been really into eyeshadows lately..
and I decided to experiment with color
because I felt I'm a bit too boring with my eyeshadows.
So this palette worked brilliantly for me.. because I could experiment with a variety of shades and see what worked for me and what didn't.
Anyway.. I'm going to start with the review and tell you what I think..
PACKAGING
Nice and sleek ..
Black packaging..
Has a mirror inside
and comes with sponge applicators
TEXTURE
Nice and smooth..
not gritty at all and applies silky smooth.
PIGMENTATION
Varies..so I'm going to focus on them individually.
Tequila Sunrise: Very pigmented
Martini: Very pigmented
Blue Hawaiian: lacking pigmentation, sheer
Bloody Mary: on the sheer side, but not as sheer as Blue Hawaiian
Screwdriver: Nicely pigmented could be more pigmented though.
Green Iguana: nicely pigmented
Apres Midori: very pigmented
Blue Lagoon: very pigmented
Blue Lagoon: very pigmented
Purple Haze: nicely pigmented
Green Martini: very pigmented
Singapore Sling: very pigmented
Espresso Martini: on the sheer side could be more pigmented

FALLOUT
Some of the shades are slightly powdery..
so there is some fallout going on..
But nothing a good old fan brush cannot fix.
LASTING POWER
Lasts all day over a primer
The following are looks I managed to pull off with this palette...
