E.L.F Studio Line Concealer

Hey Guys so I hope you don't mind my recent posts but I thought it would be useful if I provide swatches of all the e.L.F products I owe.

In this post I'm going to be talking about the E.L.F studio line concealer, this product is available from eyeslipsface.co.uk at £3.75

This concealer comes in four shades: Ivory, Beige, Honey and Tan.

Left to Right
Tan, Honey and Beige

Left to Right
Tan, Honey and Beige

Top To Bottom
Beige,
Honey,
Tan

First Impressions
These aren't the best concealers available but they will do the job, however, at £3.75 there are better alternatives, for example collection 2000 have an amazing concealer which costs £4.19 (from boots.co.uk). Even their £1.99 concealer stick is better than this e.l.f concealer.

Hope you enjoyed this post

E.L.F Studio Line Complexion Perfection (With Swatches)

Hey so this post is going to be about the complexion perfection by e.l.f (£3.75 from their studio line)


"Complexion Perfection
Create a balanced and radiant complexion that is beautiful and healthy. The lightweight formula evens out the skin tone and absorbs excess oil. The sheer formula brightens, mattes and neutralizes the skin.

Directions
Blend the powder over the entire face to brighten and even out the skin tone as well as neutralize any redness." 
Taken from eyeslipsface.co.uk


As you can see in the picture I have three of these.

Left to Right: Yellow, Blue, Green and Pink

When applying the product I use the complexion brush by E.L.F from their studio line.

How do you feel about this product?
When i initally used this product I was not blown away because when you swirl your brush into the product it just turns into a white chalky mess! but I soon began to get the hang of this product! you have to use this product sparingly!. I apply this product after my primer and It preps my face before my foundation by balancing out my uneven skin.

Hope you enjoyed this post

E.L.F Studio Single Eyeshadows (With Swatches)

Hey Guys,

So I have a lot of e.l.f products and I have decided that it may be helpful for others if i swatch them. The other reason for putting swatches on my blog is that I have a quite a lot of e.l.f hauls on my YouTube channel and sometimes I don't/ didn't have time to swatch the product during the video.


There are 15 Colours within this range...

Sea Blue (Taken with Flash)

Totally Teal (Taken with Flash)

Sand Dollar (Taken with Flash)

Mystic Moss (Taken with Flash)
(Note that this eyeshadow has a slight green tinge to it but the flash on my camera hasn't showed this)

Butter Cream (Taken with Flash)

Sunset (Taken with Flash)

Pebble (Taken with Flash)

Purple Passion (Taken with Flash)

Saddle (Taken with Flash)

Oatmeal (Taken with Flash)

Charcoal (Taken with Flash)

(Please note that this colour is a little darker brown then the picture shows due to the flash)

E.L.F.'s Matte Lip Colour (With Swatches)

In this post I will be swatching E.L.F's matte lip colour. These are £3.75 each. These are brilliant and last all day, and although they are matte I do not find them drying at all.


There are six shades available and I hope that in the future they will widen their colour selection. In the bottom (the coloured part) there is a sharpener hidden within.

1 Coral
2 Nearly Nude
3 Natural
4 Tea Rose
5 Praline
6 Rich Red

Hope you enjoyed this post. If anyone would like to the colour on the lips then just comment down below :)

E.L.F.'s Luscious Liquid Lipsticks (With Swatches)

In this post I will be showing you swatches of the E.L.F.'s Luscious Liquid Lipsticks. In total there are 12 shades, however, at the time I was placing my orders they only had 9 in stock.

All of the liquid lipsticks have been twisted up, but when you receive these at first they look like they have quite alot of product in them but once you have twisted them up (which takes about 20-30 twists) this is the end result (See Above Picture), the only lipstick that i have used in the above picture is the lightest pink one. However, for £1.50 you can't complain. I'm going to be buying some more soon as a back up.


Sorry for the bad picture. 
1 Carmen Candy
2 Maple Sugar
3 Bark
4 Brownie Points
5 Perfect Pink
6 Raspberry
7 Pink Lemonade
8 Cherry Tart
9 Ruby Slipper

Hope this post was helpful

E.L.F Studio Line Lip Stains

So in this post it's just to show you the swatches of the lip stains by E.L.F

There is only one lip stain that I don't like and that's the colour first date because of the smell, it literally smells like paint

There are 8 shades in total and these retail at £3.75 each (Definitely worth the money!)

The Lip Stain isn't particularly a stain but more like a matte lipstick (Once dried).
You can use the gloss but I don't tend to as I'm not a big fan of lip-glosses anyway. 



   1 Heartbreaker
2 Lucky Lady
3 Mysterious
4 Bombshell
5 Birthday Suit
6 First Date
7 Fashionista
8 Red Carpet


If you would like to see the lip stains on my lips instead of my arm then comment down below :)

Hello Kitty / Barbie 3D Phone Case for iphone 4S

So this Post is a little different to what i usually vlog/ blog about, but I just had to show you all!!

I recently got a iphone 4s and dumped my beloved blackberry due to the fact I wanted to be able to blog on the go... but anyway for anyone who knows me personally knows I love phone cases. 


So I Purchased a few on eBay (Which I may also blog about..) and I found a hello kitty/ Barbie phone case and put in a bid for £12.99 (with the p&p being £3.75)....soon after it was being dropped through my letter box...


I was pleasantly surprised to see the parcel in barbie paper (I felt like a little girl at christmas lol) 

Once I ripped of the barbie wrapping paper I was presented with a white box which was thick and sturdy.

Once I was inside the box I was presented with this gorgeous tissue paper!

The item was in a few layers of this tissue paper and then wrapped in this pink bubble wrap.

and here it is!!!! I absolutely love this phone case!! This case doesn't feel cheap at all, its such good quality and everything is stuck down so well!!

Will definitely be using the eBayer again as the item was dispatched very quickly and was received nicely packaged!

Disclaimer: This product was brought with my own money.
