10 Years of Sleek i-Divine Eyeshadow palettes

This year Sleek are celebrating their 10th birthday of of their cult classic i-Divine eyeshadow palettes, with a killer limited edition anniversary version. Featuring the iconic brand colours of pink and black, this bold palette features 12 mineral based shades and with it comes a dreamy lipstick, aptly named Dream Decade too.

Like all i-Divine eyeshadow palettes, Diamond Decade comes encased in a Sleek back palette with a full length mirror running along the top section.  In the bottom section of the palette are 12 black, grey, silver and pink eyeshadows which are either matte or shimmer and none of them have names.  As always with most eyeshadow palettes some of which perform much better than others as my swatches below show.

What I like about this palette is that the difference in shades is quite noticeable, no two are the same and even the lightest of the pinks, which didn't work well as an eyeshadow, works alright as a base colour and the same for the silver shade which didn't work too well for anything other than in the corner of each eye.  The rest of the shades are easy to work with, they blend well and there is a bit of fall out, but not as much as I was expecting.  I just need to be brave enough to move away from my neutral palettes and be comfortable with a pop of colour!

I do love a Sleek lipstick, especially the LIP VIP ones and if you love your bright pinks, then Dream Decade is definitely the one for you.  It swatches incredibly well, is pigmented and is a bright as you might expect.  It has a creamy formula and one that stays put once applied for a good few hours.  The finish is one of semi-matte so it fits nicely in between for those not liking a high shine or those liking a matte.

Whilst this might not be my shade of pink to pull off, I do think it is fabulous and anything this pink deserves a hugh thumbs up, I am just jealous it isn't a shade I can wear. 

The i-Divine palette is priced at £5.99 right here and the Lipstick is £3.99 here - grab them both quick!
