Sleek Rose Gold Blush


S1610016

In Aberdeen, this blusher only became available last week, even thought it's been part of Sleek's range for, ooh, about a year? I've been aching to get my mitts on it FOREVER and I finally snapped up the last 2 on the shelf. I am now religiously checking my local Superdrug for back-ups as I will need this blush in my life, for the rest of my life.

S1610017

It's really not much to look at in the pan; in fact, it looks weirdly grainy and like it will look like you've been slapped, really hard, across the face. But a gentle sweep across the cheek & it transforms, giving a very high-end finish.

S1610018

The complexity of the 2 colours is stunning - the gorgeous tropical pink, mixed with the gentle gold flecks make it an obvious, out-right dupe for NARS Orgasm blush, but at a 5th of the price.

I don't say it often about products, but you need to go buy this. Now. Immediately.

Available in Superdrug stores and online at around £4.50.

    As an American, I've only heard about how beautiful and amazing this blush is, and seen used it in tutorials, but I have never seen it in person as Sleek is not sold here. However,after seeing your photos, which are incredibly clear and beautiful by the way ... I'm off to the Sleek website to place an order! :-) Thanks for a proper look at it Amanda!

    You have picked the gold shimmer so beautifully in your pictures; they are so lovely to look at! This shade would look so awful on me, its perfect for blondes!
