STORM - SLEEK


Another Eye Shadow review and this one is a brand from the UK. This palette contains 12 different colors from neutral to darker colors, with the combination of shimmer and matte eye shadow colors. Lets start with the packaging, the packaging its just a simple one, its a hard case palette. There's nothing bad about the packaging, its sturdy its black and classy. In this palette also comes with the dual sponge applicator. This brand carries on six different eye palettes, and the one i'm reviewing is called the STORM palette. I notice this brand from one of the UK magazine and many people also said that its a good product.


The Storm Palette Colors:

DOWN (DARK)  TOP  (NEUTRAL)

The Claims:

The Storm i-Divine palette comprises of 12 strong and rich shades perfect for accentuating the eyes and creating natural looks. 


The velvet-touch consistency gives full and shimmering coverage to the eye lid for maximum effect. Each shade can be applied alone for a dramatic effect or mixed to create a personalised look. 



Best applied with the applicator enclosed.



We've recently given our i-Divines a makeover! The outer packaging has been updated and the way the eye shadows are pressed are different. They are now pressed flat instead of the original waffle print.


My Opinion About the Product:

When this palette arrived, i cant wait to use it cause i think it will turns out great and i'm right. This eye shadow does what it claimed. The colors are very vivid and pigmented, In this palette you can create the most amazing shimmering eyes ever !! Because it really give you the shimmery effect without making you look ridiculously glittery. Most of the colors in the palette are shimmery just three of them which are matte colors. This palette also provides you the colors to create neutral to dramatic look depends on how you like it. 

Swatches:

Top Colors (Dark) Down Colors (Neutral)
As you can see the swatches on the picture, the colors below are the more neutral, soft colors but shimmery and the colors on top of it are the more divine and vivid colors for more dramatic looks. You can see how pigmented and gorgeous the colors are. (the colors swatches are in the same direction as the colors in the palettes)

How i like to use it this palette on a daily look are, First, I apply the soft gold color (Neutral, 2 from left) all over the lid using an eye shadow brush. Second, I apply the dark shimmery brown color (Dark, 1 from left) on the outer corner to the crease making a 'V' shape with a small dome brush and last but not least i used the matte soft brown color (Neutral, 3 from left) to soften up the colors using the Tapered Blending Brush. The very last thing is highlighting my brow bone just using my ring finger with the lightest color from the palette.

For, night time look i usually go for a more dramatic look and i used the same techniques just different colors selection. This is a Must Try item for those of you who like shimmers, cause it really gives you the real shimmer. 

You cant find this product in any department store in Asian particularly in Indonesia. So, i get this palette via FACEBOOK, the user name is MakeUpBrush. She sells a REAL deal !!
