The latest shiny-new offering from Sleek Makeup is this rather dinky compact pertaining two magically metallic cream eyeshadows. Molten Metal offers us a highly-pigmented cream that can be utilised in many a way. Eyes, lips and cheekbones can be highlighted and given the Midas touch, glowing with gold and shimmering with silver hues.
From left to right:
Pewter and Gold Leaf
The pigmentation is definitely very rich and the consistency of these cream shadows is luxurious and glides on like a dream. I really enjoyed using them to create the below look. I used Pewter all over the lid, gently applied with a standard eyeshadow brush and then I lined by bottom lashes and the inner corners with Gold Leaf.
The wearability is average to good. It did crease a little after a laborious day but for £6.99, I think these shadows are not only a wonderful colour payoff and finish, but a simple way to add some glitz and glam to your eye makeup.

Molten Metal (£6.99) is out today as a permanent addition to Sleek's makeup line.
You can purchase it from Superdrug or Sleek online.

Looks gorgeous on you sweetie, but then again... What wouldn't!
Hopefully my Superdrug will have it in stock and i'll be able to pick one up on my lunch break tomorrow :) x
Finally, a dupe for Illamasqua's liquid metals! Yay! xx

I love it!!! Im a massive gold eye shadow fan :) xo
Oh wow they look beautiful! But very similar to Illamasqua's liquid metals, don't you think? I spy a copy cat - but by the sound of it Sleek has way more staying power than Illamasqua and is a fraction of the price! Bargain! xxx

Ahhh love that! I think I may have to snap this up next time Im in Leeds where my nearest counter is.
When you applied that on the bottom, did you just put a dot then then smudge it slightly? Whenever I do it it goes EVERYWHERE. Thanks love!
