Sleek iDivine Palette Review Part One

This weekend I got my first Sleek iDivine palette in the mail. iDivine is a U.K. mineral-based eye shadow line, so you can use them wet and the eye shadow won't seal over like regular eye shadows.

 I ordered Storm #578 on Ebay:




The colors are very pigmented and you get 12 eye shadows for around $15.00  I paid $14.60 from seller gift-ideas-store (link: http://stores.ebay.com/giftideascosmeticperfumestore )

There are nine shimmer shadows, light golds and peaches as well as silver, slate and dark blue (some swatches):



 and three matte, a light brown, a dark brown, and a black  (swatches):



I have another palette on the way but I won't be getting it until May 10th at the earliest.

P.S.: I use this for cleaning off my hands when I swatch, Wet n Wild Eye Makeup Remover:


I would never waste my good eye makeup remover on swatching, so I just use this.  It's very cheap and gets the job done.

Physician's Formula Matte Collection Eye Shadow

I have two quads so far: Classic Nudes and Canyon Classics.

Classic Nudes:




Canyon Classics:




The texture of these eye shadows are very smooth and buttery (which is what you want with mineral mattes).  There is a lot of fallout when you apply (puffs of product cloud out around you if you're too rough applying it) so your best bet is to use a primer on your eyes and pat the color on, then blend.  The stay power on both is pretty impressive: I rubbed the swatches I had on my hands pretty well and it took a minute for them to fade away almost completely.  I haven't tried them on with a primer, so I'm assuming they'll last at least 8 hours with one.
