I’ve tried a few of these True Colour lipsticks from Sleek over the past few months in matte and sheen finishes, and overall, have really liked both the formula and the shades.

Today’s shade is a very neutral, nude shade; slightly paler than I would usually wear but with a warm undertone. It’s not quite caramel, but I found myself really liking the  slightly rose tone to it.

It gives the lips a medium coverage, and although it has a sheen finish, it has a relatively thick texture which makes it feel very creamy and smooth on. It has a rich feel about it which I liked, and because of that, the lasting power was pretty good too.

My lips are incredibly dry this week, and I found that this really helped to keep them moisturised throughout the day. While I wouldn’t say that it was completely hydrating, it definitely helped to keep them soft and prevented them from drying out.

As budget lipsticks go, the formula in this is definitely one of the better ones I’ve tried over the past year. It doesn’t have the same luxuriousness that some higher end brands have, but it’s a great budget alternative.

Have you tried any Sleek lipsticks? Make sure you send me on your favourites if you have!
