The first thing you'll notice about these bunch of swatches is the unusual colour palette. Sleek does consiously seem to cater to darker-skinned women, and even the models they use tend to be darker-skinned, which is pretty cool in a sea full of brands all using blonde-haired-blue-eyed models. So while I have to admit that these shades aren't necessarily my cup of tea, I think Sleek has done a pretty good job of bringing more colour options to the table for all of us.
Anyway, here are the swatches:
L-R: Blaze 827, Cherry 828, Fuschia 833, Mulberry 837, Vixen 843
Blaze 827 is a brown shade that, as mentioned before, is really unusual.
Cherry 828 is my favourite of the lot, a cool-toned deep plummy red.
Fuschia 833 is probably the most "typical" colour option they offer, and is a bright bubblegum pink.
Mulberry 837 is probably one of those colours that really sells well during Halloween, LOL. It's not black, but it looks almost-black, and it's a deep blackened purple-red.
Vixen 843 is a bright red that is mostly neutral but leans a little to the warm side. This is a good option for anyone looking for a bright red lipstick on the cheap.
The thing I like about these is that pigmentation isn't skimpy - even the lighter pink colour, Fuschia, is pretty opaque once you layer it a little. The finish of the lipsticks was also nice - no big bits of glitter or anything like that. Most of these had a slightly glossy cream finish, which I quite like.
