This morning I was so pleased to received my massive parcel of goodies from e.l.f but after opening the packaging and swatching, i'm not so sure.
I kept seeing e.l.f splashed over Youtube and figured maybe I should start wearing makeup properly again, so why not start with a brand everyone loves? That's when I realised pretty much 98% of makeup on their website it only £1.50 - BARGAIN...Right?
So, £32.00 later, lots of pictures and my first impressions...
Nail Polish
First impressions: I think they'll need a couple of coats as they don't look very pigmented.
 |
| L-R: Metal Madness, Nude. |
 |
| L-R: Gum Pink, Blush. |
 |
| Matte Finisher - Clear. |
|
|
 |
| L-R: Metal Madness, Nude, Gum Pink & Blush. |
Concealer, Eyeliner, Primers & Eyeshadows
First impressions: The colours look natural/nude, so hopefully i'll like them once they're on.
 |
| Tone Correcting Concealer in Ivory |
|
 |
| Liquid Eyeshadows in Cream Dream and Sultry Satin. Cream Dream arrived dry and isn't useable :[ |
 |
| Eyelid primers in Pearl, Sheer and Champagne. |
|
 |
| L-R clockwise: Ivory concealer, Champagne primer, Sheer primer, Pearl primer and Sultry Satin eyeshadow. |
|
 |
| Brightening Eye Colour in Ethereal |
 |
| As far as i'm aware, each colour doesn't have a name but you get the general idea. |
 |
| Waterproof Eyeliner Pen in Black |
 |
| Swatch of the eyeliner, not very pigmented. |
Other bits & pieces
These are mostly tools and random bits :]
First impressions: The quality doesn't seem too bad, but i'll have to really try them before I can comment.
 |
| Blending Eye Brush |
 |
| Balm in Vanilla Creme |
 |
| Cuticle Pushers x 2 |
 |
| Nail buffer :] looking forward to using this! |
 |
| Last item, Zit Zapper.. apparently this is good, so bring on the spots! |

Overall thoughts?
For products that are £1.50 each, they're not that bad but I think I was expecting something different. All I can do now is try them out and see how I get on!
Has anyone else used e.l.f before? If you have, what were your experiences like? Please let me know!

I kept hearing so much about them, all positive so thought i'd give them a try. Not the most amazing makeup, I must say but i'll give it a go and see what happens. Judging by the MAC website, clown makeup is very 'on trend' so I may look alright :) Thanks for reading though! I will be doing some reviews xx
ReplyDeletei really nice some products of elf not essential but mineral and studio
