Sleek True Colour Lipstick in "Amped"
Quick Thoughts
- Blue based fuchsia with intense pigmentation
- The colour applies true to the shade in the bullet, regardless of your lips' natural pigmentation
- Matte formula which makes it very long lasting on the lips
- Can be drying so a lip balm is essential (in the photo below you can see how it's made my lips look quite dry as I didn't wear a balm beforehand)
- If worn without a lip balm it can accentuate dry flaky bits AND also stain your lips
- It's meant to be a dupe for MAC Candy Yum Yum, but I don't own CYY so I can't compare
In Australia it's available at Crush Cosmetics for AUD $9.95 or US $6.49 from the Sleek website which has international delivery.
Have you tried any of the Sleek True Colour lipsticks?

Hi hun, I'm doing fine! We have our good days and bad days (mainly nights!) but on the whole I love motherhood and my son is just adorable. Oh and I'd taken these pics just before I gave birth... right now I look v.tired (those sleepless nights again!), but I should get back to normal soon I hope.

DeleteIt looks really beautiful, I love the bright shade :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, I love my bright shades :)
DeleteGorgeous shade of fuchsia, Lilit! Bold and pretty, really goes with your turquoise necklace. I think its name is perfect for the shade.
ReplyDeleteI agree, perfect name for such an amped up colour!
DeleteThe pigmentation of that lipstick's amazing, so no wonder you love it! The colour's a wow one too! BTW I'm free to go lipstick shopping again so you just keep on tempting me Lilit :) xo

ReplyDeleteHahaha, thanks Michelle! It was only 2 years ago I started wearing brights and now I love them! xx
DeleteI've never tried anything sleek but now I want to! This lipstick is lovely!
ReplyDeleteTheir eyeshadows were the only thing I'd tried before, but this lippy has me craving more from the range for sure! xx
DeleteI love the Sleek eye palettes but I've not {yet!} tried any of the lippies. Naughty Lilit, you know you're my enabler! Looks fabulous on you Xx

ReplyDeleteGorgeous lipstick! I really like fuchsia! You look so beautiful with that lipstick! I found some very useful makeup tips website www.asian-makeup.org and www.makeup-styles.org
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately fuchsia doesn't suit me which is a pity as it would be a great Summer colour. I guess I can just admire it on the lucky ones who can wear it ha ha. Very belated congratulations to you both on the birth of gorgeous gorgeous Luca Alexander. :)
ReplyDeleteYou always wear bright lipsticks so beautifully! This looks gorgeous on you, but it's not like I was expecting it not to.
ReplyDeleteGreat! Love it.=D

Thanks for this great review. Now I've just decided to purchase this lipstick knowing that it can be a great lip balm to hide chapped lips or lip bleeding. I'll try to look on Amazon if it is available.
