In my
last weeks post, I finally received my products from e.l.f. that
Super Mom got me for my birthday. Since then, I have gotten a few requests to do a review on the products I got. So here you go...
At the end of my review for each item,
I will give a rating out of five ♥s.
One being the lowest - Five being the highest.
1. I love how the face primer makes my foundation look, but if I sweat (which is most likely with the heat we're having here), it makes my face look a little shiny. When putting it on, only squirt out about a 'pea size' amount, and that will cover your whole face fairly well. Anymore and it will make your face feel too oily.
Rating: ♥♥♥♥
2. The pressed powder is great. It covers my face well and does a wonderful job covering up my face when I need a quick touch up.
Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
3. I unfortunately haven't had a chance to try the false lashes yet, but I would assume they are like any basic lash kit.
Rating: unavailable
4. The concealer stick is pretty descent. I keep it in my purse and use it whenever I have a blemish that needs some covering up. Just apply over area and rub in a little, and done!
Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
5. Like I said in my post last week, I swear by this stuff. I have been using it for years. When regular concealer doesn't do the job, the all over stick covers it up! You can use a brush, but I prefer to just use my finger. I love it!
Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
6. I've never used bronzing powder before, but I thought I'd give it a try, and I love it. It makes my cheek bones really stand out, which I like. But be care not to put too much on your brush because even a little does a lot.
Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
7. Their lipgloss is ok. When first opening it, you have to twist the bottom a bunch of times before the gloss actually comes out. But be careful when twisting, because if you twist one too many times it comes out real fast. I personally don't like how the applicator part is like a brush; I prefer the stick kind or the squeeze kind. And the gloss itself is kind of sticky.

8. Not much to say about toe separators. They pretty much do what they say they do - separate your toes!
Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
9. I've only ever used liquid eyeliner once before in my life, so I don't have much to go off, but it's ok. The actually applicator is like a plastic point, not a brush, so when trying to apply in a sweeping motion, it doesn't work very well. It does the job, but not as well as I'd like.
Rating: ♥♥♥
10. I
like LOVE the eye widener
A LOT! I just love how it makes my eyes look. I used to occasionally put black eyeliner all over my eyes, but using the black on my upper lid and then white on the bottom, gives me a more classier/prettier look.
Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
11. The eye smudger sponge works pretty good, I just wish the sponge was a little more squishier.
Rating: ♥♥♥
12. I didn't find the blending brush necessary. Just a regular eye shadow brush does the job.
Rating: ♥♥
13. I never knew what the fan brush was for, until I was looking through all the brushes, and discovered it was for wiping your face after applying eye shadow. I always used to wipe it with my fingers and the eye shadow that fell down would just get all smudged under my eyes, but now, I can wistfully wipe it away! Yay!
Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
14. The bronzing brush is pretty much the same as a blush brush, but it's nice to have two different ones so the colors don't mix.
Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
15. I love that I got 100 eye shadow colors for only $10, but some of the colors aren't as dark as they look once you apply it on your eye. So I have to go over it a few times to get the actual color.
