Sleek MakeUP i-Divine Sunset Palette

Swatches & Review
I decided to make another order on Sleek two weeks ago when they were having a 20% off deal because they revamped their site & now has lower shipping rates! When I first placed my order back in March, their shipping was a flat $10, but now, it varies by weight. Unlike last time, I actually received all my items, which is definitely good. When I placed my order, I ordered their i-Divine palette in Sunset since I did not own any.
Sleek's Sunset palette consists of a lot of red, coppery, orange shades, which reminds me of the sunset. This palette did not come with names for the shades so I just swatched them according to the top row and bottom row.
The top row has more vibrant shades than the bottom row. I love the orange so much! It is super bright and sticks out the most from the rest of them. All, but the black was pigmented. These were swatched without primer, so the black may show up more if I used primer under it?
The bottom row is more on the neutral side than bold, but they are still amazing! I also swatched these without a primer.

Overall, I am impressed with this palette. For $10 USD, the eyeshadows are really smooth and buttery. From swatching them, only the black color was rough compared to the other shades. Some of these have fall out since they are so smooth, but tapping your brush will help with the fall out. The only thing I wish there were are more matte shades. The only matte shade in the palette is black, while the rest are shimmery-metallic. Other than that, I definitely want to try more of their palettes. What palettes do you recommend? Have you tried Sleek i-Divines?

    1. Cranberry/pinks. :) It's a true black. I wonder why it looks more purple on your computer, it looks grey-ish black to me (maybe because I didn't have primer under it). lol
