Sleek palettes swatches pt.1

Hi everyone!
It's been a while since I've written a post here, in the meantime I was browsing my makeup collection and I realized I have quite a lot of palettes by Sleek.
I think almost everyone by now knows Sleek makeup, for those who don't it's an English drugstore makeup brand, which it has become more and more famous mainly because of the excellent (and super affordable) palettes this brand makes.

For those wandering: yes, you can easily shop online on their website http://www.sleekmakeup.com/

In these posts (this is the first part of 2 in total) I'll show you the swatches of all the palettes that I own, indicating the type of shadow and describing the color. However I won't do a detailed review of each palette here (stay tuned if you want to know my opinion on each one :)!). In the upcoming weeks I'm planning to do at least one makeup tutorial for each palette that I'm going to show you, so if you're interested keep checking ;).

Part 1/2: permanent line
Today I'll be swatching the "permanent line" palettes, as I call them, because they're always available on the website.

M = Matte, fully opaque color, no shimmer whatsoever
Sat = Satin, shimmery color with no distinct sparkle in it
