Sometimes Superdrug and Boots too. Ironic I know, as MAC is no where in comparison to the other brands mentioned but for some reason there is a trust factor established with ELF now, after ordering from them several times.
Here's what I got.
Nothing exciting I know. I told you I got my basics from here!
Coming to its infamous Power Brush. It's a flat top, densely packed brush which according to ELF, one should use for powder and I am sure you can but the entire world uses it for foundation. I adore it too and its officially the love of my life. I own three of these!
For £3.50 each you may get a slightly different version each time but it does not bother me really.
Another item by ELF that I swear by is its Mineral Eye Primer. To my delight, they have changed its packaging and made the shape resemble UDPP. For £1.50, I really did not expect sleeker packaging but bring it on ELF!
I have used both UDPP as well as Two Faced Shadow Insurance but have always come back to this. If you haven't got this yet, where have you been hiding all this time?
Their Tone Correcting Concealers are something I own in a couple of shades too. They are all pretty neutral/salmon based shades, give a fresh, light coverage and are light reflective hence great for touch ups. Cheap as chips and equally delicious!
If you're somewhere around MAC NC30/35, then Apricot Beige and Honey should be just right.
I also got their All Over Cover Sticks in two shades to conceal discoloration around the mouth area, blemishes and all that but surprisingly it works pretty well around the eyes too. I think I'll feature them in a separate post after I've used them for a bit.
Share your ELF must-haves with me chicas! Any thing in particular you'd want me to review from them?
The studio powder brush is amazing! I love it for applying liquid foundation, and even blush sometimes. It is sooooo soft. Nice haul, Hun!
same here I love the primer from elf and nyx too ... Try nyx hd primer it has a very gud staying power..
been using my elf powder brush, it works really well with my mineral powders :D oh please share your reviews on those items that you bought particularly the all over cover sticks and mineral eye primer~ thanks in advance :D xo
E.L.F is always spot on with their products in my opinion, they are great quality for the cheap price!
@Locke - Will do soon :)
I love ELF!
There cover sticks are amazing and the nail varnishes are fab for everyday colour changes!! xx
I too love the flat top brush! I own two of these and planning to stock up on more hehe xoxo
I love the large complexion brush- perfect for a light dusting of bronzer all over. Also, the etting spray which is rubbish for setting but takes away the powdery look I can get sometimes. It's also great to refresh the skin on a hot day. And the cool bronzer which I use for contouring.
@Demonicsmurfette - Thanks, will check out :)
I love the contouring blush and bronzer and makeup remover cloths!
I made my first ELF order yesterday - they are having a fantastic everything-half-price offer at the moment!xx
Nice haul gurl. I'm dying to get my hands on the powder brush.
♥xx♥
