Sleek Makeup’s Paraguaya i-Divine Palette

Another gift from Sirvinya, this palette full of oranges and corals and pinks is part of Sleek’s Avoir la Pêche collection. Shade-wise, it’s more limited…but orange eyeshadows look surprisingly good on me. The more vibrant they are, the better the contrast with my blue eyes!

The colors that I initially liked best, when just looking at the colors in the palette, were Parfait, Bellini, Peach Gold, and Persimmon.

The leftmost four eyeshadows, in the palette: Parfait, Blush, Redstone, Bellini The middle four eyeshadows, in the palette: Cameo, Persian Orange, Tangelo, Persimmon The rightmost four eyeshadows, in the palette: Peach Gold, Sandstone, Stone, Bittersweet Four eyeshadows, swatched dry over primer: Parfait, Blush, Redstone, Bellini Four eyeshadows, swatched dry over primer: Cameo, Persian Orange, Tangelo, Persimmon Four eyeshadows, swatched dry over primer: Peach Gold, Sandstone, Stone, Bittersweet

The colors in this palette were:

  • Parfait — pink-tan shimmer
  • Blush — bright soft ballet pink matte
  • Cameo — pink-coral matte
  • Persian Orange — pink-orange pearl
  • Peach Gold — pink-orange gold shimmer
  • Sandstone — neutral peach matte
  • Bellini — peachy-gold shimmer
  • Redstone — golden orange matte
  • Persimmon — pumpkin-orange matte
  • Tangelo — tangerine matte
  • Bittersweet — medium-light brown matte
  • Stone — medium-dark brown matte

As it turned out, Bellini looks very pretty but didn't apply all that well. There was a hint of gold shimmer, but I had to apply the color more heavily to get it to show up. I can use it as a soft browbone shimmer, though. Parfait, Persian Orange, and Peach Gold are all fantastic colors! Persimmon had a hint of pink shimmer, and a cool tone to the color. I like Bittersweet a little more than I thought I might, though it's not always easy to get that shade to show up. It's not as reticent as Bellini, but a single "coat" was fairly soft.

CYA disclosure-type notice: I did not buy this item myself. It was a gift from a friend.
