I was going to wait until I received all 3 of my ELF orders (yes all 3!!!!) to do a You Tube video. But as soon as my first order came through the door, I just couldn’t wait to share my goodies with you!!
All 3 orders have been made in a week, crazy I know! Last weekend they had a 50% off sale, then later in the week they had no delivery charge and now as I’m typing this they have their very last 50% off sale!! I just couldn’t resist, especially if this would be the last time I could get such fantastic makeup items from 75p each! It would be rude not to, right??!!
So what did I get????.......
Complexion Perfection £3.50
I love this, I use it in two ways. With a big powder brush I swirl all the colours together and use it to set my make up, then with my new Concealer Brush (£3.50), I blend the yellow and pink to create a peachy tone to set my undereye concealer. Both methods really brighten my skin!
Blush and Bronzer Compact £3.50
So really it does exactly what it says on the errr.....box. It’s a blusher and bronzer. The blusher is a soft natural pink with a delicate shimmer and the bronzer is a soft tan, again with a slight shimmer to it. I already own a few bronzers but I’ll be using this for contouring to enhance my cheekbones!
I bought the Flat Top Powder Brush (£3.50) to do the contouring after seeing a tutorial with it. For me its a little too big for contouring, so I have ordered the Blushing, Bronzing, Blending Brush in my latest order!
L-Concealer Brush R-Flat Top Powder Brush
Shimmering Facial Whip in Citrus £1.50
I have this in Pink Lemonade which is a beautiful colour. Citrus is more of a highlighter, it’s a soft bronze shimmer, where I’d used Pink Lemonade as a blusher as it’s deeper in colour!
The only trouble with these is the packaging, if you over twist the lid, the tube splits and the products oozes out!! This happened to my PL so I’m being extra careful with Citrus!Luscious Liquid Lipstick in Raspberry £1.50
L-Raspberry R-Citrus
This looks like a gloss, it feels like a good quality gloss but with the pigmentation of a lipstick. The colour is a really pretty reddy pink, it has a slight glossy texture but not at all sticky. Gorgeous!!
Eyebrow Treat & Tame in Medium £3.50
Mineral Eyeliner in Ash £3.00
This is a gorgeous eyeliner, it’s so soft and glides on beautifully, love the grey colour too, not as harsh as some black liners I have!So that’s my latest ELF box, I have another 2 coming, so I’ll keep you updated the those bits too. Once I have them all I will do a haul on my You Tube Channel.
placing my order as I type, Ive had my eye on those facial whips for a while, will have to try a few now!
ReplyDeleteIf you are ever after more brushes I highly recommend the crease brush from the regular line.
Looking forward to seeing the rest of your hauls!
I love the flat top brush. One of my all time favorites :) Great picks!
