ELF Essentials Liquid Eyeshadow

I got these and decided to do a post on them.

They are handy for quick application although I definately recommend a primer.





From Left to Right - Sulty Satin, Misty Mauve, Mocha Madness

I probably wouldn't reorder these as the colours are just ok. I have other very similar ones. But they are good no the less.

Thanks guys

Emergency - Quickest FOTD stat.

Hey guys, So I was on my way to work today when it occurred to me I had on no make up, 
So I parked outside of work and had a rummage in my bag.

This is the look I created with what I found in there, I had no brushes so it was all applied using my fingers.
It took approx 4 minutes.

As you'll see from the picture, I am on the mend, My eyes don't look as bad as they did in the Etsy review.
My hayfever turned into full on flu. With an ear infection to boot.

Here is the picture,


List of products used.

Elf Essential Brightening Eye Quad in Brownstone
Elf Essentials Brightening Eye Quad in Day to Night
Gosh Velvet Liner in Black Ink
Mac Zoom Lash in Black
Eyeko Fat Balm in Raspberry

I think it turned out pretty good, I only wish I had had an angled liner brush so I could have filled in my brows.

What are you emergency Make Up products?

A Review, Elf Studio Cream Eyeliner in Gunmetal.

Hey guys, Just a quick review on this cream eye liner by Elf.
I love anything that is Gunmetal colour. This eyeliner is really creamy and as you can see from the picture is nice but not a very dark eyeliner colour. Great for eyeliner for the daytime. 


I actually prefer this as a dark base instead especially for really shimmery shadows they stay put for ages.
If I ever manage to use the whole tub of this because there is a lot for gel eyeliner, I will repurchase.

Thanks for stopping by!

A Review. Elf Essentials Natural Radiance Blushers

I got these in my most recent Elf order, I've tried them a few times and I have to say I quite like them and they are super cheap.

From Left to Right Shy and Glow.

From Left to Right Shy and Glow.

I always tend to lend more to Glow it just seems to suit my skin tone, I am NW15 from Mac. Very pale Irish skin. They also blend really well. The packaging can be a little fiddley but I don't mind that. 
It is very sleek so you can fit it pretty much anywhere.
 I can definitely see myself getting another one of these when this runs out.
@€1.70/£1.50/$1.00 you can't go wrong.

A Review: Elf Essentials Custom Eye Shadow

Hey ladies,

I got these single eye shadows from Elf and thought I'd review them for you. 
They are in 26mm pans so they will fit into a Mac Eyeshadow palette.
You can get small 4 pan palettes from the website that you can put custom blushes and lip pans into too.
The quality is so good on these, the colour payoff is strong and they are really cheap €1.70/£1.50/$1.00.
I have four, here are the swatches.

Ivory is a really good highlight and inner eye corner colour. 
The only small downside to these is fallout and that Elf don't have more colours in them!!!

My Elf Order

Hey ladies, Look what arrived this morning.

I can't wait to swatch and play with these.

Reviews coming soon.........

A review. E.l.f Cosmetics Contouring Blush and Bronzing Duo

  Just a quick review,

I read online and heard in some YouTube videos that this duo was a good dupe for NARS Orgasm and Laguna.

Now I have never tried either of those but I can say this, I really like this duo. The bronzer is a little dark for me during the day unless you put it on super lightly (I'm Mac nw15) But the blush is perfect for anytime.

It is a really nice peach pink with little gold reflects.

It is a very soft powder not chalky at all. I just wish there were more duos to choose from.

On to the pictures......

The packaging is also quite nice. Sleek even. It is great quality and it was only €4.00/£3.50/$3.00.
It's a steal!!
