The fun part of summers is the trendy
sculpted look. Every year I would just stare at the posters feeling an itch to
try it out, and this year I finally could. Honestly speaking, no one needs to
contour & highlight everyday, but its something you can do for a day
out or some special event. Today I’m going to review a
Contour-Highlight-Bronzer trio from Sleek Makeup.
Price: Rs.1005 / $14.99
Qty: 20g/0.68oz
Availability: Luxola | Sleek Makeup Website
Company Claims:
Face
Form is the sister product of the Face Contour Kit. Available in 4 shades - Fair, Light, Medium & Dark.
With
multi-tasking elements such as contour powder, highlighter and/or blusher or
bronzer, Face Form is the ultimate face definition kit in one neat compact
designed to suit all skintones. Please note: Face Form in Fair and Light come
with contour powder, highlighter and blush. Face Form in Medium and Dark come
available with contour powder, highlighter and a bronzer.
Ingredients:
My Experience:
Packaging:
The trio is housed in a black plastic case
which is very chic and convenient to store & carry. The only problem is
that if you own multiple of these or the Sleek Blush by 3 trios, you’ll have to
search through the bottom of each case to get the right one. However, this is a
problem with even luxury brands like Nars, so, its okay!
Shades: The shade Medium (374) has a
contour, highlight & a bronzer.
The
Contour shade (left) is a neutral brown on my skintone. It looks light in the pictures but its 3 shades darker than my skintone. I do wish
it was cool toned though (it might be on lighter skintones), cool toned browns
are great for sculpting and creating shadows. Nevertheless, the shade is really
great for contouring; it works perfectly with my skintone and gives me a
naturally chiseled look. If needed, you can layer it more to create a strong obviously
defined look, but that’s not my thing.
The
Highlight shade (middle) is a champagne color. The
best part about this highlight is its pearly finish. It does show 1-2 glitter bits
on the cheek but its not made up of chunky glitter. It gives a beautiful glow
to the skin. I personally hate glittery products for the face and I was quite
nervous about this being too chunky but its just perfect.

The
Bronzer shade (right) is a warm coppery color with gold shimmer. Just like the highlighter, it has a lovely pearly finish which
leaves just 1-2 glitter bits on my cheek but overall gives a beautiful sun
kissed glow to my cheeks. As you can see from the swatch, its quite orange so I
refrain from any place other than cheeks. My absolute
favorite way to use this bronzer is under
a matte pink blush; this color + Maybelline Fresh Coral = Glowy pink-coral which makes my cheeks look like their glowing from
within! It looks lovely on its own too, and I like to use it as an eye shadow
as well.
All the shades are intensely pigmented.
Texture:
The contour & highlight shade are
creamy smooth while the bronzer is relatively not creamy, but very smooth. All three
blend into the skin so effortlessly, it truly makes this palette a pleasure to
use.
Wear time:
This is the part that’s little
disappointing, the Sleek Face Form doesn't last for more than 3-4 hours on my currently normal-combination
skin, or even on my sister who has dry skin. I've used it over a primer but it
doesn't help prolong the wear time of this either.
Overall Verdict: 4/5
I really like the Sleek Makeup Face Form palette, its great
quality and there’s nothing I have to complain about except for the wear time. I
didn't think I’d have much use for the bronzer but its my current favorite
blush color. Sleek Makeup caters to a wide range of skin tones so even deeper skinned beauties can enjoy the sculpted look. Recommended!

But, I prefer slightly warm colors for contouring. Too much of cool tones or taupes, make me look very muddy.
My recent post Dove Indulgent Nourishment Body Lotion with Shea Butter gave me the luxurious feeling and a beautiful moment which nothing else could give.
