My ELF Purchases!

ELF is a brand which I have heard loads of reviews about and that they're products are great value for money. After buying the ELF Studio Powder brush (post here) and loving it, I thought I would purchase a few more items. 

ELF Studio Eyebrow Kit - I had been wanting to get an eyebrow kit for so long, and had so many on my list to try. I decided to get this one first as I had heard great reviews and its a fab price, only £3.75.

I am so pleased with this little kit, it does exactly what I want so perfectly and easily. I can define my brows without them looking fake and it allows my brows to look natural, as you can see the hairs through the product. In the kit there is a wax, powder and a teeny tiny-brush.

There are many different ways to use the product - here are 3:

• You can apply the wax first and then add the powder on top.
• You can apply the powder and then add the wax second.
• You can mix the wax and powder together and then apply both at the same time.

I tend to do a mixture of the 3 depending on what I feel like, but if i'm in a rush I usually just mix the two products and whack it on! I am currently using the Real Techniques angled brow brush to apply the product to my brows, but I want to get a thinner angled brush to have more control, so my brows look more precise.

ELF Studio Makeup Mist & Set - I decided to get this product as a test to see if I would like setting sprays.

ELF say: "Keep your makeup in place all day with a radiance boosting invisible hold. Spray on after makeup application to set makeup in place or during the day for a quick touch-up to refresh."

I really like this product, I feel it sets my makeup really well and it always freshens me up when I spray it throughout the day. However I am not sure if I agree that it keeps my makeup in place all day. I feel that it does set and prolong the wear of my makeup but not for a noticeable amount of time. I will continue to use this product as I like that it sets my makeup and gives me a dewy look.



ELF Blush in the shade Peachy Keen - I love this blush so much. I was just browsing through all the products on the ELF website and as soon as I saw this colour it was straight in my basket.

I really like peach shades for blusher and just knew I had to try this out. Peachy Keen is a gorgeous peachy orange shade. I find that a lot of peach colours tend to be more pink based, whereas this is definitely more orange toned.

 The formula of this blush is really lovely, it's soft and slightly powdery. I use the Real Techniques Blush Brush to apply this product and I find that you can easily lightly dust it on but also really build it up for a more intense look.

I am really loving ELF products and can't wait to get some more. Also I just found out ELF are opening a store in Cardiff - eeek exciting! I am so looking forward to visiting it :)
