E.L.F Haul: Cream Eyeshadows, Matte Lip Colour, Flawless Finish Foundation


Hello guys! Long time no see. I'm sorry but I've just been really busy, but today I wanted to do a post on some E.l.f products I ordered a month ago. I've been trying them, so I guess I can do a little review later on:

Eyelid Primer Collection 4€
Studio Cream Eyeshadows in Candlelight (light champagne) and in Dawn (light taupe) 4€
Shine Eraser Set (blotting sheets) 4€
Studio Flawless Foundation in Porcelain 7.50€

So far I really love the cream eyeshadows, they last a long time without a primer underneath and I have pretty oily lids. The foundation is a bit thick and cakey looking, but I'll do a in depth review about it soon.

Love

E.l.f: Studio Conditioning Lip Balm Spf 15 in Nice & Natural

Hello guys! Almost two weeks ago I made an order on E.l.f (I posted the haul this morning but I was late) and I've been trying everything I got. I wanted to talk about their new lip balms, I have three of them (Mellow Melon, Peaceful Pink and Nice & Natural) and so far I really like these balms.
Nice & Natural is a nude pinky color, it has a good pigmentation and it moisturizes your lips pretty well. You can use it alone or layer it over a dry lipstick (like the ones from the E.l.f 1 dollar line). The only downside is that you have to stick your finger in it to apply it or you need a portable lip brush.

Price: 4€ in Eu.
Rate: 3.5/5

Best Lips Pairing: E.l.f Lipstick in Classy - E.l.f Mineral Lipgloss in Pageant Princess


Hello guys! Today I want to start a new series of posts regarding best products pairing. Lately I've been loving this lip combination: E.l.f Lipstick in Classy with E.l.f Mineral Lipgloss in Pageant Princess on top.I love E.l.f , it is inexpensive brand, available in all countries through their websites.
The new 1 dollar lipstick are awesome, especially this one in the color Classy, which is a medium pink with an opaque finish. It is a bit drying if don't apply a lipgloss on top, so I paired it with another E.l.f products, the mineral lipgloss in Pageant Princess, which is a light pink with gold shimmer. It's not too sheer and I really like it because it isn't sticky at all.

Here's a photo of my lips wearing these two products together:


I hope you liked it!

Mac Cosmetics Undercurrent Eyeliner Dupe by E.L.F Cosmetics



Hello guys! Today I was going through my makeup stash and I found two eyeliner that looked exactly the same. Last Christmas Mac came out with this really popular eyeliner, which was sold out pretty fast called Undercurrent. It's a really pretty teal green with microglitters in it; it goes on smoothly and it's long lasting.
I found a pretty similar eyeliner dupe for it, and it's from E.L.F Cosmetics called Twinkle Teal. The amazing thing is that it costs $1 in the US and the Mac one costs $14.50!

The only difference I could find between the two is that the E.l.f one smudges easily, but if you put a primer underneath, you won't have a problem.

I hope that was helpful.

Love.

E.l.f Shimmer Eyeliner Pencil: Twinkle Teal - Swatches & Review



Hello guys! So a while ago I ordered some products from E.l.f and I tried everything. Today I wanted to review the shimmer eyeliner pencil in the color Twinkle Teal for you. It is a bright teal color with micro sparkles in it, it is creamy and soft, so it's good on your upper lashline. It lasted quite a bit, of course it's not like a Mac or a Urban Decay liner, but for the price (1 $ in the US and 1.70€ in Eu) it is a superb eyeliner. It is pretty pigmented as you can see in the photos, where I didn't have a primer underneath, only the twinkle teal and mascara.

E.L.F Haul: New Bamboo Brushes, Makeup Mist & Set, Lipstick and Shimmer Eyeliner


Hello guys! Today I received my package from E.l.f UK after 15 days! I was so mad, they changed the delievery service from Royal Mail to Fedex and the new service sucks, I even had the European Sign For (the expensive shipment). I hope that doesn't happen again because I love elf products, but I hate waiting.

I bought almost all the new Bamboo Brushes and at first sight I'm really pleased with them, of course I have to wash them and use them before I can give you an honest review (I purchased everything myself). They are soft and well made, the handles are pretty steady, so we'll see how they work out. I bought also the new Makeup setting spray from their studio line, a Shimmer Eyeliner Pencil in Twinkle Teal, one of their new dollar lipstick line in Gipsy and last a nail polish called Metal Madness.

Soon I will review everything for you guys.

Fall/Winter 2010 Nail Polishes: E.l.f gold nail polish in Blush

Gold nail polishes are very in this fall/winter 2010. I bought this E.L.F Nail polish in Blush last year I think, but I didn't really used it until yesterday. I fell in love with it, it's a beautiful gold color with a bit of pink, almost a ROSE GOLD color.
It took me two coats to have the color you see in the picture, but I like opaque coverage. I adore E.l.f Nail polishes, they're cheap and they last more than my Mac ones.

Price: 1.50£ in UK, 1.70€ in EU, 1$ in US.

Fall/Winter 2010 Nail Polishes: E.l.f Mod Mauve

Mauve is definitely a trendy color this fall/winter 2010. I bought this nail polish this summer, but I used it only recently and I really love it. It's a perfect color that goes with every outfit (black, brown, bright colors). It is a brownish/mauve color, neutral but still fun. I adore E.l.f nail polishes, they're cheap and they last quite a while.

What do you think about it? What's your favorite fall winter nail polish?

E.l.f Studio Blush in Pink Passion - Review & Swatches

Hello guys! Today I want to talk about a blush I really like: E.l.f Studio Blush in Pink Passion.

I have almost all the studio blushes from elf and this particular one is in my top favourites. It's a bright bright pink, extremely pigmented. If you're fair skin like me, you should use a light hand with it or it'll be too bright. It

goes on smoothly and it blends amazingly. It lasts a long time too.

Above you can see the effect it gives to my cheek, I like it.
I pair it with pink eyelooks or neutral ones.

Rate: 5/5

Price: 3$ in US 4€ in Europe.

E.L.F Cream Eyeliner in Midnight - Review and Swatches

Hello people! I tried the new cream eyeliner from E.l.f cosmetics in the shade Midnight. It is a navy blue, a very pretty color. So far I like it, but it isn't the best cream eyeliner I own.

It takes layering to get an intense effect and it applies better over an eyeshadow rather than on the bare skin.
For the price (US: 3$ Eu: 4 € Uk: 3.50£) is a good product but isn't in my e.l.f favourites.


I hope this post was helpful.
See you soon

Review - E.l.f Studio Line Mineral Infused Mascara

Hello everyone!!! So...I tried the E.l.f Studio Line new things and I'm going to review them for you guys. Today I want to talk about the Mineral Infused Mascara.
This Mascara really impressed me. It's cheap and great, it lasts all day and it gives you a natural looking lashes and a reasonable amount of lenght and volume. It has a silicone brush that is clumps free.

The only downside is that the formula is a little wet and tends to smudge when you apply the mascara, like it happened to me in these photos, but If you're careful you should have no problem:


In these photos I have no makeup on and I haven't curl my lashes.

Here's the link where you can buy it: Europe and USA

I hope that was helpful...

See you soon

My Top 10 Must-Have Products from E.l.f Cosmetics

Hello everyone, today I wanted to tell you how much I love this very cheap brand called E.L.F.
For those makeup addicted like me, this is certainly a brand worth checking out...
I ordered from E.L.F website plenty of time and I have more than one product of any product on their website, so I know what I'm talking about.
Among the great thing about this brand, there is the worldwide shipping...How amazing is that?
I live in Europe so I order on E.l.f Uk website, but if you are in America, you can order HERE.

These are my top 10 must have things from E.l.f:

1- E.l.f Mineral Booster: this product is amazing...I think this is my favourite among the products. It is a sheer powder and it absors oil on your skin and gives you a photo finishing touch, like the website says. My skin feel smoother everytime I use this to set my makeup. I use it with Elf studio line Kabuki Brush.


2- E.l.f Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder in Luminance: this product is always sold out for a reason...It is AMAZING! The Luminance powder is the perfect face T-zone highlighter and can also be used for browbone highlighter.

3- E.l.f Mineral Eyeshadow in Natural: this is my favourite one, and I have almost all of their shades. Natural is a skintone color, it is very shimmery and looks almost gold under certain lights. I usually apply it wet, but it looks good anyway.


4- E.l.f Mineral Lipstick in Runway Pink: this is one of their new shades. It is a perfect nude pink lipstick that goes well with any makeup look, especially with smokey eyes. I love the formula of this lipstick, I have five of them. They feel soft and moisturizing on the lips.


5- E.l.f Eyelid Primer: this is a primer that suprised me...really? It is so cheap I thought it was rubbish, but it is awesome. I put this on my eyelid before applying my eyeshadow, and my makeup lasts all day! O_O I have already a back up of this! I have the high brands primers, like Urban Decay Primer potion and Mac Paint Pot, but I'm not kidding, this does almost the same job. So If you are looking for a cheap but good primer this is perfect for you.

6- E.l.f Mineral Eye liner pen in BLACK: I use this everyday. It is black enough, precise, creamy and It is good on your upper lashes and on the waterline. Love it.


7- E.l.f Studio Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder: this palette has a coral glittery blush and a matte bronzer. I use this everyday too. The matte bronzer is an amazing contour for your cheeks and the blush is really pretty too. It appears to be glittery but on your cheeks they do not show, which is good cause we don't want glitter all over our face.



8- E.l.f Studio Lip Balm SPF 15: This is a wonderful lip balm. It is highly moisturizing and If you put this under your lipstick, it has a lip gloss effect! O_O It also protects you from the sun, cause it has SPF 15. It has a minty flavour.

9- E.l.f Studio Eyelash Curler: It is great! It curls your lashes wonderfully and it is easy to use.

10- E.l.f Eyeshow Compacts: This is a quad that you can customize with eyeshadow, blush and lip colors. I have all the eyeshadows and three compacts to store them. My favourite colors are: Sage (a wonderful gold/green), Mocha (a bronze color), Moondust (taupe color) and Ivory (a white shimmery highlighter shade).


I hope that was helpful. These are my top 10 item from E.l.f, but I like almost every product.


THIS IS MY HONEST OPINION, I'M NOT PAID FOR THIS AND I BOUGHT ALL MY MAKEUP.

Lea Michele: 20th Century Fox Golden Globe Celebration - Make up Look

I love Glee and I adore Lea Michele. I tried her look and It looks amazing on me and I think will look amazing on everyone.

This is the look:


This is my rendition of the look:


I used a grey shimmer eyeshadow from Elf Eyeshadow Duo in Black Licorice on my lid and white eyeshadow on the inner corner. In the crease I used a brown/pink matte eyeshadow and under my eyebrow a nude matte eyeshadow. On my lid I put my mineral eyeliner pencil by elf and on the lower lashes a brown one with a little bit of light brown eyeshadow on top. Then I used my mascara.
Use your foundation, a coral blush on the cheeks, a pink pale lipstick and you're good to go :D
Hope you like it...Live a comment and subscribe.
