E.L.F Haul.

As soon as I saw an e-mail from E.L.F stating their 60% off entire site sale for there university I was sold!

Lucky everything I wanted was in stock and I was also curious about some new products and I am not disappointing :)


This is an over all view of the items <3

I didn't included two lipsticks in this picture because one broke :(

Now lets start with blushes first since as you know I am a blush whore :X lol


 
Top: e.l.f studio Blush in Giddy Gold
       e.l.f Cream Blush in Heartbreaker
       e.l.f Cream Blush in Tease

Bottom: e.l.f Mineral Blush in Peachy
            e.l.f Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder in Sun Kissed

Swatches: Same order as above


Giddy Gold- This is one of e.l.f's new Studio Line Blush and I usually am not a fan of their studio line Blushes but this blush is so pretty!! I'm so happy I took the chance and purchased it

Heartbreaker- This blush is not a cream consistency but rather a mousse. It is such a pretty coral-pink color. It is completely matte and perfect for the summer.


Tease- I was hoping this color was more of a peach but the color is more of a muted rosy color. This blushes are really smooth and easy to blend so I cant complain that much huh? lol


Peachy- Again peachy is not even a peach color! It is more of a brown-pink. I was reading reviews on the site saying this is great for dark skin tones and its so peach...SIKE!! I have this blush in Coral now that's a peach tone color lol


Sun Kissed- This bronzer does have shimmer and it has gold traces in it. I mostly bought this with the intention to wear it as a blush since I am really tan now to give me a Sun Kissed glow. I cant wait to wear it <3

 

 Bottom:  e.l.f Eye Widerer in Pearl White
              e.l.f Waterproof Eyeliner Pen in Black
              e.l.f Radiance Enhancer in Golden
              e.l.f Radiance Enchancer in Sunrise

Top:       e.l.f Eyeshadow Quad in Butternut
             e.l.f Waterproof Lengthening & Volumizing Mascara

Swatches: Listed the same as above (Bottom to Top)

Pearl White- This eyeliner is white with a sliver reflect but I did apply to my water line and it showed up rather nicely. Not entirely sure about the lasting power.

Black Liner- When I swatched this on my arm and then washed it of it did take a couple of scrubs to take off. This item is going to live in my makeup bag :)

Golden- This comes with a pencil applicator so you have to turn the bottom and the product comes out. I would suggest putting it on your ring finger and then apply to where ever you want to highlight. This is a gold color with gold reflect.

Sunrise- This is a rosy color with sliver reflect. This blend it out nicely. Again I'm not sure of the lasting power, but they are pretty :)

Butternut- As you can see from the swatches the two lighter colors aren't pigmented but the darker ones are. They have a smooth consistency and this is another item that's going to live in my makeup bag :)

Waterproof Lengthening & Volumizing Mascara- This is my second tube and for $3 I love it! It really works for me and really does lengthen and provide volume for my lashes. 


Left to Right: Essential Lipsticks in
                    Flirtatious
                    Captivating

Swatches: Same order as above

Flirtatious- is a matte pretty mauve-pink. This colors are sheer, but can be buildable.

Captivating- I was the most excited for this color because its a wearable orange color. Of course it breaks on the way here :( I did manage to wear it and its so pretty! It did not dry out my lips either.


What makeup items have broken on their way to you? :(
