Hey all,

Just wondering If any of you have tried any ELF products? http://www.eyeslipsface.co.uk/

Thier Studio Line is getting rave reviews all over the Web and the prices are fantastic.

Would be good to know peoples expereinces with it before I fork out loads of my hard earned moolah on it!

Thanks

Linguo

Been wondering about this myself, prices seem great!

Oooh bit of mixed reviews there!


Im thinking of ordering
Mineral blush in Coral- Its meant to be like Nars Orgasm.
Mineral Foundation in Fair- I've never tried mineral foundation before and heared this is as good as the top brands
Studio High definition powder- Its mean to be just as good as MUFE powder.
Mineral Lipstick in Nicely Nude
Studio Complexion

If anyone has tried these please do let me know!

Hi I've a good few bits from ELF and overall find them great. I have the HD powder and it's a really nice really really fine powder which set makeup really nicely without caking. The only thing I would say is use a light hand and apply sparingly because it's so light your brush will pick up loads! I have a mineral lipstick in the bright coral colour and it's really bright and vibrant. It's rich and long lasting (slightly drying but a bit of balm will fix that). I've yet to get a nude shade, but I'd imagine the forulations are all the same more or less.

I haven't tried any of their mineral line but I have the Studio blush in peachy keen... it's great for daytime but find it a bit subtle for evening as they are not super pigmented (although the colour is buildable).

Hope this has been of some help!

Hey,

I've also tried ELF and I found them cheap and brilliant! I got a nude lipgloss which I love and a tone correcting concealer, and I got a lovely clear lipgloss free.

I found it all great but unfortunately because they only accept credit cards I can't get anymore. I can't find my 3v card!

I have them as a friend on facebook and they do promotions every so often with codes for 10% off and stuff...Very nice! They also put up youtube clips of makeup application with their stuff and I have to say it's gorgeous!

Beaut.ie are relatively big fans of this brand - see here for recent post on Studi Blush.

I haven't tried it yet, but all these good reviews are making me interested.

I'm gona order some today and Il tell you how I get on when I get them!

the studio bronzer is really good - the golden one (lightest shade) gives just a nice glow for pale skin.

Ive tried the liquid lipsticks from the cheap line and these are grand - a little bit of a chemically smell but nice enough.

The clear mascara is fine - not sure why they bother having two sides to it though! I saw a blogger said it didnt "hold" her brows but I find it fine.

I like the pen eyeliners as well.

The little four pan pallettes are deadly as they hold mac so brilliant for travel if you have depotted your eyeshadows.

I bought the cheapy primer recently but I havent actually tried this as Im using a mac paint pot.

So I finally recieved my order yesterday. I waited for a discount and got 20% of my total purhcase. Delivery took about a week.

I've only had the prodcuts a day so I can't give a full review but here's my first impressions.

The packaging is excellent. All the compacts I got looked really sleek and professional looking

Mineral Lipstick in Nicely Nude- This looks pink on the website but is red in reality. Its okay, nothing to go mad over. Its makes my lips a shade darker than their usual colour. Bit dissapointed as I wanted something pinker.
Texture and packaging is good though

Studio Kabuki Brush- Love this product. The bristles are lovely and soft, and applied my bronzer perfectly.

Mineral Foundation in Fair- Too dark for my skin and is just like a powder really. Maybe Im putting it on wrong but I thought mineral foundation was meant to be more of a foundation finish than a powdery finish?
Also the pot is very small and this makes it difficult to get an even amount onto the brush.

Mineral Blush in Coral: I'm a blush junkie and usually like my cheeks to be really pink. This is a very natural colour and its given me a very natural,healthy glow today. I'm impressed

High Definition powder and complexion perfection: Haven't used these yet,but both look very imressive.

Eye primer and liner sealer- I used this on my eyelids this morning and my eyeshadow is still on, so thats a good sign Il probably use the primer by itself to, as it has the exact same effect as Benefit's Lemon Aid. Very good!

False Lashes in Natural - They look great and at €1.70 for a set of falsies I can see these being a staple in my makeupbag.

All this makeup in total cost me around €25,which is excellent value for what are top quality products.

I absolutly adore ELF.

The only thing is I don't like their nail varnishes. They require 3 coats for any colour =/
