so today im going to show you what i bought from elf. elf stands for eyes, lips, face and is a brand that is only available online, as far as im aware, i may be wrong. But it is a great brand. I have heard loads of great things about them and the make-up is quite cheap from elf, so considering i sometimes think that the quality wouldn't be great.
But it is! last weekend they also had a 50% offer on, they have these quite regularly, or some sort of money off event. I always miss them, and because they normally hold them at the end of the month i always run out of money to try them. but this time i had money and i really wanted to try some of their products ago, so i bought some, and im happy i did.
It was really quick delivery, even though i picked standard delivery i got it in less than a week.
so i bought the maximum coverage concealer in shade porcelain, wouldn't say its maximum coverage but it does a good good, and a little goes a long way.
HD cream foundation in porcelain, great texture and very easy to apply, does stay on all day aswell, woop, i didn't use the sponge it came with because i dont like them, i used a foundation brush.
HD under eye setting powder in sheer, never tried one of these before, and i like the fact it came with a small brush to apply it with. so far so good
HD blush in superstar, its very very bright, and very pink, i had to use abit of powder over the top to dull it down abit, but it is a really pretty colour
elf bronzer is cool bronzer, i chose this colour because i like the description of the colour on their website, im glad i did, it matches my pale skin perfectly and i can lighten or darken the colour by putting in more or less of the white, its a beautiful product.
brush cleaner, i haven't tried yet but im hoping it will be easier to spot clean my brushes with it.
blending brush, the bristles are abit hard but i wasn't expecting anything like a mac/sigma brush but it does a good job.
eyeshadow in saddle (i think) really nice colour as a contour shade, i did put it all over my lids aswell and it works well as both.
lipstick in flirtatious, it looks a really bright pink when u you look at it, and it is hard to twist the lipstick up but when you put it on the lips its more of like a balmy consistency and a really light pink, its lovely, such a great everyday colour.
have you ever bought anything from elf? would you?

yeah i really do like it :]
DeleteI missed the 50% off :( but I did get a 30% off deal, I've ordered the concealer too, bit disappointed that it's not as maximum as it states, but I guess for the price you cant really complain. I've had a dispatch emails so hopefully it comes by Saturday! I'm liking the sound of the brush cleanser, I had one a wee while a go and it was a god send.

DeleteI've been meaning to buy ELF products for years (literally). They are animal friendly and always getting great reviews so I really need to try them out. Perhaps that blusher when I run out of my current one. Anyway, I've nominated you for The Versatile Blogger Award.
