one of my favorite affordable makeup brands is Sleek Makeup, a UK-based drugstore brand. not only are their prices super affordable, but they cater to women of all skintones. i mean...how many drugstore brands offer customers a range of 30 foundation shades? most high-end brands don't cater to that wide a range.
in keeping with this commitment, Sleek blushes offers a wide color selection that truly has something for everyone.
a few years ago, Sleek launched their website, making their products available to everyone outside of the UK. over time i've collected all of the blushes in the permanent line and few limited edition shades as well.
these blushes come in compact, black packaging that includes a mirror. the blushes themselves have a soft texture, are extremely pigmented (a little goes a long way), great staying power (i easily get 8-10 hours wear), and blend easily.
they are also a great value...at $5.99 you get 8 grams of product!
