Sleek Face Form Palette - Light // REVIEW




























Hey guys! A few weeks ago I picked up the Sleek Face Form palette in Light from Superdrug. This is basically a bronzer, highlighter and the Rose Gold blush for less than £10 (well 1p less)! Most people will know that this is the supposed the, ever questionable, exact dupe for the Nars Orgasm blush. Personally, from what I have seen, Rose Gold seems to be more coraly than Orgasm, but I guess I can't really tell until I swatch them in front of my own eyes. Anyway, on with the review!

The Face Form palette is available in four shades: Fair, Light, Medium and Dark. Although if you are intending to get the Rose Gold blush included, this is only in the Fair and Light palettes, so be careful of that one! The Medium and Dark palettes come with darker blush, but it does look more like a shinery bronzer.

First off is the Contouring Powder. I am always quite picky with bronzers, they must be completely matte, not look too orange, can't be far too pigmented (as this could easily lead to a very dark line on your cheek bone) and must be well, decent enough to do the job! This one fits the bill exactly and is pigmented enough to create whatever depth of contour you would like. It lasts absolutely hours which I thought was really good!

The Highlighter powder is gorgeous, it isn't very pigmented in my opinion, which I don't find particularly bad. A little bit will create a gentle highlight, although it's easy to create a stronger, more obvious highlight! It isn't one of those highlighters you can see a mile off, but you get a lovely shimmer when the light hits it.

Lastly, the Rose Gold blush! It's a rose pink shade with gold flecks. I don't normally like shimmer blushes, but this one is so pretty because it adds a subtle pink glow, whilst still being alright to wear during the day! It is very pigmented, so you have to be careful to only get a tiny bit on your brush. 

Overall I am extremely happy with my first Sleek palette, the three powders lasted all day without any top ups and they really complimented each other! I will definitely be buying more Sleek palettes in the future, and repurchasing this when I eventually run out! 

Have you ever tried the Sleek Face Form Palette?
