The palette is made of the same material as all the other i-Divine palettes but the actual casing is white rather than black. Personally I think white fits in with the Bohemian theme more than black but it does get dirtier quicker. When I closed the palette after swatching I had some eyeshadow on my fingers and it immediately made a mark on the outside, although luckily it came off easily when wiped with a tissue.
Instead of the usual plastic outer packaging this palette comes with a decorated cardboard packaging, which I much prefer as the design on there is so pretty, especially on the back!
Of the 12 colours there are 3 shimmery ones (1st and 2nd ones from the left on the top row and the 2nd one from the left on the bottom row) and all the others are matte.
The actual eyeshadows are smooth, easy to apply and blendable. Like all the other Sleek makeup palettes the eyeshadows are nicely pigmented and I found that the shimmery ones were creamier and more pigmented than the matte ones.
The beige colour from the bottom row is also almost the same colour as my arm so it didn't show up much on the photo however I've swatched it on my finger so you can see the colour better.
This Bohemian palette is limited edition and will be available from Superdrug on the 17th March, priced at £4.99. I was sent this palette from the PR company for review purposes.
What do you think of the colours? Will you be purchasing this palette?
I dont like the white packaging at all, but I still will most probably pick this up. At £4.99 its hardly a huge cost.

Not a fan and I have enough Sleek palettes now.
ReplyDeleteJo- I think you're in the majority, a lot of people have said they prefer the black. Hope you like it x
ReplyDeleteVexinthecity- Fair enough, they've released a fair few now. I still regret not getting graphite! x
hmmmmmm i find Sleek e/s really crumbly, and if you get a tiny bit of fallout on your cheek it doesnt come off and you have to do your makeup again =0/
ReplyDeleteim with Vex... not a fan x
I prefer the black but it's still cute! xx
ReplyDeleteCute packaging but the colours are bit out there for me. x

Nooberella- I know what you mean about fallout, I hate it when eyeshadows get onto your cheeks! I found the matte ones less creamy and crumbly than the shimmery ones, although I prefer the shimmer x
ReplyDeleteIndia- Glad you like it x
Random London Girl- Yeah they're not as easy to wear as the storm one x
Sarah- Glad you like the colours x
Computergirl- Lol pretty impressive that it made it onto ebay so early! x
I might be the first person to say I actually like the white packagingT The colours inside look lovely and I have the Sleek Acid pallet already, so I know what the pigmentations are like.

Ooh lucky you getting this. I don't know whether I'll get it, I have most of them but I got rid of Curious I think it was because they were matt and I just couldnt use them as much as I did the others. I will have to have a look :) xx
