Sleek Blush in Rose Gold

I have mentioned before that I live in a small city and the shopping is limited. One brand that isn't available is Sleek. Obviously I could purchase online but it's never the same and I like to see things and swatch them before I part with my cash! My sister lives in Glasgow and has access to great shopping! She kindly bought me the contour kit for my birthday and the original eyeshadow palette for Christmas. I love both and so have been keen to try more Sleek.

In my recent Glasgow haul I decided to pick up a Sleek blush. This shade is absolutely raved about in the blogger world and so I quickly added it to my basket.

Sleek Blush in Rose Gold £4.49

Unlike the contour kit and eyeshadow palette, this doesn't come in a box. This isn't a big deal as I don't tend to hang onto these boxes anyway. The casing is in the same style as they other products and is firm and sturdy feeling.

Inside the case the blush has it's own mirror. I don't usually use these but it's handy for travelling or taking in your handbag for touch ups.

I applied this product with my Real Techniques blush brush and it went on really well. It's very pigmented and easy to blend into to the skin. This blush is an absolutely gorgeous colour. As the name would suggest it is a rosy coloured pink with gold shimmer through it. The top swatch shows the product as applied onto my skin and the second shows the colour when hit by the light! I can really see why so many bloggers rave about this! The colour lasted all day on my cheeks and had only slightly faded when I washed it off at bed time.

I am definitely keen to try more Sleek blushes after using this one. They are great quality at a great price! What shades would you recommend to me next?
