A party favourite: SLEEK Sparkle 2 palette!

Happy New Year everyone, everywhere!!!
Let us hope 2013 will be an awesome year to remember, with lots of happy moments, love and warmth in our hearts :*
Now that there's another 4 or 5 days until we can all start packing our party dresses up the attic, us beauty junkies can still afford a bit of extra glitz&glam to our makeup, am I right? Enter Sleek's Sparkle 2, a limited-edition eyeshadow palette that fits perfectly the holiday season.
This is my first tryout in the much acclaimed Sleek palettes, and I must say I'm amazed.

Apart from the ease of having so many eyeshadows in one place (yes, I'm a neat freak), the seletion of colours is unique and their pigmentation is pretty awesome! I've already made a mental note of an eyeshadow combo that should look stunning on my eyes: navy on the lid, burgundy in the crease, and some black glitter around the top&bottom lashline... Brown-eyed girls, take note!
That being said, not every single shade performs as great as the next one- but I guess that's something to expect in a 12-eyeshadow palette. At the end of the day, there's ALWAYS one or two shades that are left unused in any makeup palette!

So, the theme of the Sleek Sparle 2 palette is, obviously, glitter. My initial fears of too in-your-face drama were quickly dissolved. You see, there are 4 shimmery shades that are perfectly wearable, while the rest eyeshadows apply like mattes, with some gold glitter particles thrown here and there. I quite like that, although if you're fond of real glitter, this palette will most likely dissapoint you.

Onto the swatches:

Here are the four shimmery eyeshadows. Nice and wearable!

As you can see, the rest eyeshadows are mostly matte, with some sparce glitter.

FYI, Sleek's black eyeshadow is reknowned to be one of the most pigmented black shades ever!

And here's the ingredients list...

Overall, this Sleek palette left me satisfied and wanting to try more products of the brand! I have my eye on a couple of eyeshadow palettes, namely Storm and Au Naturel. Couldn't be more thankful that the last one has made it to our greek Sephoras, yay!!!
What's your experience with Sleek eyeshadow palettes? Are you a fan of die-hard glitter on the eyes?
*This Sleek palette is a pr sample. I'm sharing my honest thoughts, as always.*
