Sleek Snapshots palette

Hey dolls,

The purchase of this palette was one of the biggest fails ever lol. Scroll past the lovely pics and swatches to find out why...






 Snapshots
£8



 Top Row L-R:
Summer Breeze, Martini, Kiwi Flower, Lotus Flower, Humming Bird, Tequila Sunrise

Bottom Row L-R:
Sand Walker, Washed Ashore, Sunset, Green Iguana, Purple Haze, Magenta Madness

OK So I'm angry. Not because there is anything wrong with the palette but because I spent £8 on 12 eyeshadows I already own. Each of these shadows are re-releases of eyeshadows from 2 limited edition palettes. I was not aware that sleek were re-releasing a palette of limited edition shades, it never said that on the website. But its only as I was swatching the palette and looking at the names, I kept having a sense of déjà vu. So I looked over some of my older sleek posts to come to the shocking conclusion that I owned ALL of these eyedahdows. FAIL!

My local Tesco now has a Sleek counter...YAY! Which is where I discovered that the Sleek palettes had gone up in price, only by a mere £1.51 but I paid more for something I already own, UGH!

This palette works out great for people who missed out on the Caribbean and Mediterranean collections. You can see below which shadows were from which LE palette accompanied by a link to take you to the post on said palettes.

Monaco palette:
Summer Breeze
Kiwi Flower - also known as 'Kiwi Zest' 
Lotus Flower
Humming Bird
Sand Walker
Washed Ashore
Sunset
Magenta Madness

Curacao palette:
Martini
Tequila Sunrise
Green Iguana
Purple Haze

The only difereence between the palettes is that they no longer have the old crosshatch pattern and one of the shadows had a name change.

In conclusion the Snapshots palette is a good palette, the colours and quality live up to sleeks usual standards and is great for those who never got to try the previously mentioned LE palettes.

And always rememeber to make sure you check your make up inventory before you go out to buy more products lol.
