Sleek is probably my favourite drugstore brand, hands down. Their consistent quality and pigmentation blow me away. These face contour kits did not disappoint. I bought mine last year, as they were all over youtube and I was hooked. The packaging is incredibly sleek (haha) and compact. Inside is a mirror that covers the entire top half of the compact, along with a matte bronzer and a highlight (theres about 2:1 Bronzer:Highlight) The packaging can be nightmarish at first because you kind of have to break it in, and for awhile it can be incredibly difficult to open. Its a plus side when you have it in your bag because it won't mess anywhere, but if you're in a rush in the morning it quickly becomes incredibly frustrating. My kit is in the shade medium and its honestly a lifesaver. A little does go a long long way so I like to tap my brush off on my hand before going onto my face. My colour changes so much between summer and winter, and this kit can be adjusted for both, but I'd say if you're in doubt definitely go for the lighter one first, as its pretty dark as well. The highlighter in this kit is absolutely gorgeous. Its almost a white gold highlighter with a lot of warmth. Not incredibly finely milled, but theres no chunks of glitter anywhere. This is not long wearing on its own so I would recommend either placing it over a cream product or not expecting longetivity. The bronzer, however, you will definitely see on makeup pads at the end of the day when you go to clean your face.

Tips: I can't stress enough the importance of a light hand. Always go in lighter and build up, and if you feel you've gone too far you can always go over it with your foundation brush to soften.
This is a great kit for all! It is so perfect for traveling due to its size and there is a fair amount of product. Ive had mine for a while not and im no where near hitting pan. All three shades are so pigmented and are just lovely, they give a great glow to the face (blush and highlighter) and the bronzer side is great for the sun kissed look and for contouring out the hollows of your cheek bones for a more 3D well defined look. I use this product every time i need a defined contoured and highlighted look and i find it works great for me. Definitely recommend this product to all my friends, its a life saver.
Tips: use and angled brush for the blush and contoured sections and a small tapered brush for lightly dusting the product to your cheek bones and other areas of the face that the light would naturally hit.
Prior to using this, I hadn't used any Sleek products - depsite having heard nothing but positive things about them. The gorgeous Ellie on here very naughtily gifted this to me and I was super, super excited to give this a go and see if Sleek lived up to the things I had heard.
It sure did. I have the shade in 'light', which is perfect for my skin tone. The bronzer is a beautiful matte brown with a slight warm undertone (but it doesn't pull orange at all). It is buttery and very, very easy to blend. This would be absolutely ideal for beginners or those who are nervous about using a bronzer. I love using this to give the impression that I have cheekbones.
The highlighter is also super pigmented and buttery. Like the bronzer, it is super easy to blend and is very flattering on the skin. It gives a beautiful luminous glow and it looks really natural as it has no shimmer or glitter in it.
The size of the compact makes it ideal to travel with or to carry in your handbag. I love this and am definitely keen on trying out some more of Sleek's products. If you're looking for a great contour kit then I highly, highly recommend this.
I have recently just become totally obsessed with sleek cosmetics , and have bought a few things , the contour kit being one of them , in the shades medium and light. These are great and perfect for traveling and the perfect little compact for anybody. I was really happy with the pigmentation and how well it applied and lasted. The bronzer is a lovely matte color , and works wanders in defining the hollows of the cheeks and sculpting out the face. Then theres the highlighter , i especially love the highlighter in the medium kit , it is lovely and buttery with a slight hint of a gold glow to it, its not glittery or over sparkly but perfect for an all over glow. Everyone needs to try these , perfect for everyone!
Tips: I use the contour kit bronzer in light and the highlighter from the medium kit as i love the subtle golden glow it gives x
This is the first contour kit I have ever used, and after reading reviews on this I really wanted to try it out. The case is smaller than I expected it to be, but you only need a small amount and this can fit nicely into your bag. Perfect for when you're going away :) I have this contour kit in the shade medium as I have olive skin. The pressed powder is great for contouring, and blends out easily. I like that this is matte, it looks like it has a bit of shimmer in it but this does not show up on your face. The shade is perfect and adds a nice warm glow to the skin without being too dark on your skin. The highlighter shade is my favourite!! It is a lovely champagne coloured shade, with a lot of shimmer. You only need a small amount, if you don't like shimmer then this may not be for you. I love how well this highlighter blends into the skin, making it look radiant. For a night out, you can build up the intensity of the highlighter and create a glowing look that is very popular at the moment. I have a few other highlighters, but I love that this highlighter isn't powdery at all. It's very creamy and glides on to the skin smoothly. As I am new to contouring, I like that this kit comes with a little instruction pamphlet. This shows you what areas to contour to get a certain effect, and explains how to use the contour kit. I feel like a bronzed goddess whenever I use this, it gives off a beautiful glow and is great quality for the price. I would reccomend this contour kit to anyone wanting to experiment with contouring, or even for those who love to contour and are looking for a new product to try.
Tips: If you feel like you have applied too much contour powder, blend blend blend!! This product is very forgiving and so easy to blend out :)
I brought this online after seeing the reviews.
The first time I used it, I got my brush, loaded it up like I do with my powder or blush, slapped it on. Good god! That's not what to do!! I had dirty streaks on my face!
Now I've read the instructions, practiced and love it. It has a dark and light powder on the pallet. The instructions suggest you use the dark to shade, then highlight with the light above.
I'm the first to admit I need practice and time to perfect it properly. I love how it blends out so easily. I also love how I can make my round chubby face look a bit slimmer.
The packaging matches the sleek eye pallets. Looks great. It isn't the easiest to open, I like that though as it won't pop open and break out
Tips: Use a teeny bit first and build it up.
I have been using this contouring kit for over a year and I absolutely love it. Before hand I was using a bronzer to contour my face and found since I was so pale I ended up looking orangey :( This kit is fantastic though, not too dark on my pale skin but enough to accentuate my cheekbones etc perfectly. I love the the illuminating powder it comes with. I like to dust it above my cheekbones for a subtle radiant glow !
Tips: buy it you will love it!!! :D
i got this baby off ebay for an awesome price as id seen all the recommending comments on this item, the highlighter is just amazing! looks so gorgeous in the light and in photos! i got it in dark because i have olive skin, and the contour colour is perfect, i do find with some of my foundations it goes a little blotchy towards the end of the day but nothing that makes me not want to repurchase :)
This is my favourite item in my kit. By far the best bronzer I have ever tryed, as its quite matte and gives off hardly any shine, PERFECT for contouring. I have it in the shade light and find it suits my skin tone (light-medium) perfectly. Staying power is awesome, and the pigmentation is high so a little go's a very long way. I got this new on facebook for $12 and would happily go buy this again.
Tips: Perfect for contouring
I have had a really bad run with trying to find a bronzer that suited my pale white complexion. i decided to buy this product of makeup.co.nz as it didnt look like it would be an orange bronzer. Firstly, the packaging is very thin which I quite like as it be easy to travel with and store. I like that it is a very simple black case with the brand logo'd on the top. It is also super easy to open and shut. I got this kit in the shade light as I am new to bronzing and contouring my face. I find that this shade is perfect for my skin tone and is a very buildable and blendable powder. I also light the highlighting powder as it gives the right amount of shimmer to my cheeks. I would happily buy this bronzer again as it is my go to bronzing product now.
Tips: If you add to much bronzing powder to your face, use whatever brush or sponge you applied your foundation with to blend out product.
