I can't believe I used to buy Rimmel clear mascara for my brows when ELF's version was around fro $1!! It is just as good or better and is cheap! They better never stop making this
Used with ELF's Tone corrector concealer, and Sheilding Hyrdo-Tint SPF 15, you may notice that areas where you applied the liquid foundation will appear to be quite darker when you apply the pressed powder. I was not that quite happy about the outcome of this product. It only gives you basic light coverage, but not enough to blend in, and tone your skin. My face also looked orange compared to the other areas of my skn that did not have the powder on it. Also, I noticed that in the formula, there are small little white specks of powder. I didnt like this powder at all, and it clearly did nothing for me.
Pros:Nice Matte Finish. Cons:Not enough skin color choices, and cheap powder formula.
Ugh...did this just say Hydro-Tint? Yes, but this is just ELF's form of foundation. There is a serious lack of shades, and undertones, and I am a prime believer that your skin tone should not be catagorized under "Tone 1, Tone 2, Tone 3, or Tone 4". I chose tone 3, and I was less than content with the outcome of this foundation. First off, this is nothing much than a tinted moisturizer, even if I did "layer" my foundation, there was absoulteuy no coverage at all,- and this formula was extremely greasy and smelled of oranges! This so called "Hydro-Tint" would be best for pre-teen girls with extremely dry skin and a dull complection. I will, and wont ever touch this stuff again! No greasy face for me!
Pros:Moisturizes your skin. Cons:Makes your skin look very very very dangerously, and hideously greasy.
The colors in this convienant compact are very vivid. A small mirror is placed behind the applicator, but it serves no purpose becuase the darn thing is too small to see one eye! Applying the eyeshadow was a pain, and a complete waste of time. I had to apply primer + powder foundation to make this eyeshadow stick to my lid. On top of that, I had to coat the eyeshadow about 5 times to get the color that I desired. Not to mention, this eyeshadow came with the cursed "streaky line" appeal. The compacts are enough for just a month's use, also adding the fact that if you drop this compact, the pressed powder will literally crack back up into dust. What a waste! But alas, this is what you get for one buck.
Pros:Nice color Selection. Cons:The eyeshadow formula was very low quality.
One of the better buys from ELF. Unlike this concealer's counterpart above, this concealer works magic on its own. The lightweight formula is light enough to give top-notch cover up over the darkest scars, and acne bumps. Not to mention, after three days of use, I actually felt that my complexion was improving. This small concealer is like jesus in the form of makeup. I recommended this as a best buy for yet all "Tone 1, 2, and 3" colors.
Pros:Great concealer! Light formula, but heavy coverage, and nice sugar orange scent. Cons:Not enough Tone Matches. Could use some more color selections.
Even though there are only three colors of bronzer,- sun kissed, warm tan, and luminance, I use enjoy these powders, and I swear by these that they make a great mineral makeup powder primer! I also find that these healthy glow bronzer are very comparable to Physician's Formular Bronzer Strips. These are an investment!

Pros:Can be used as a great mineral makeup primer, or finish for a youthful, or dewy glow. Cons:
This is a one of ELF's favorite selling products. The blush applied to my cheek very well, and the color pigmentation was absolutely wonderful! Until before I had tried this product, I always thought that the look of blush was too made-up, and fake looking, but each and every color of the blush goes on light enough, but very visible to see to the naked eye! Also, some colors are even suitable to apply all over your face instead of just the cheecks. This is a great buy!

Pros:Great Blushes in all colors. High pigmentation and get finish and feel. Cons:Try not to swirl your brush around too much inside this little compact, the powder can dust up a bit creating some residue on the compact.
This product is only good for an under eye concealer and that's it. I used it on some blemished areas I have on my chin and I swear I had the worst breakout of all time on my chin with 5 cystic pimples. As soon as I stopped using it they went away. I think that this was due to the products high oil content. If you have acne prone skin this stuff is a no-no. I was going to throw it out, but then I decided to use it on my under eyes and it did a fair job (minus the acne). You might have a hard time finding a shade that matches your skin so hope for the best.
Pros:cheap, good under eye concealer Cons:broke my chin out, not much shade selection
This is a great buy. It had moderate coverage, a bit of shimmy and a great scent all for $1.00. I bought two shades and I love them both. It's not to sticky either, great by themselves or with lipstick underneath.
Pros:Great scent, price, not sticky Cons:Applicator isn't the best.
I am not very familiar with liquid liner, so I brought it to practice, at one dollar it's not much of a loss if I didn't like it. This liner is so odd because when it dries it dries almost like a film and then cracks of bit by bit. It's not a good buy at all, but like I said, it's okay to practice if your a first timer.
Terrible product. It does nothing it says and is completely clear and not tinted. It also burns uncomfortably , I've used other plumpers that give you a stinging sensation, but this stuff felt like I was putting nail polish on my lips, it even smells like nail polish.
I bought two shades of this product luxe and Ivy . They are great. The last all day have great pigmenation, and go on very smooth. They do crease after a while, so I'd reccomend a primer, but it's nothing major.
Pros:nice variety of shades, cheap, long lasting Cons:some creasing.
Sick of spending looooads of money on bronzers andblushers just to look into the mirror and look like a clown? thats where ELF comes in! I was having such a hard time finding a product whish actually made me look like i had a healthy colour without spending my life savings! then i found ELF! they have bronzers and blushers for every skin tone and are perfect at making you look like you have colour without looking stupid! there so cap aswell you can afford to experiment with a few different ones! that what i did and i now have the perfect color for me! i dont know what id do without ELF thankyouuuuu!
I am absolutely in love with ELF and all its products! my student life has been made so much easier by this company im so glad they are now based in the UK aswell! All the lip glosses are awesome i especailly like the angel gloss with spf15!! It stays on for ages and looks awesome. I also love the flavoured lip balms especialy vanilla and blackberry they make your lips feel lovely and taste great (even my boyfriend doesnt mind kissing me with it on!!:P) absolutely the best makeup company ever i am converted for life!!!!!!
I cant get over E.L.F! im a student on a major budget but still want to look as good as possible! Iwas struggling with make up usually having to wait till i went home for a few days and borrowing my mums! untill i found this site! The products are very very high quality and stay on all day and all night but do come off easily with makeup remover! the price was outstanding and tops off a really really great product, i have used almost every item in the ELF range and recommend every single one of them! the packaging isnt awesome but it defenatly does the job.. and it goes in the bin anyway!!! i am converted and even after my student saving is over i will continue to use ELF products!

Pros:cheap prices and high quality products Cons:packaging isnt channel but who cares!!
This is a deep blue, almost black colour. It takes a bit of effort to apply as it not very soft. Not very easy to smudge either so not good for a smokey eye!
