And now the products featured...
First mini review: e.l.f. Powder Brush&Complexion Brush
Both of these brushes are so soft. e.l.f. really outdid themselves with making these only $3! They're made out of synthetic hair, which is amazing because of how soft they are. I use the complexion brush for bronzer and the powder brush for my e.l.f. HD powder. They work really well, definitely happy I picked these up.
Second review: e.l.f. Small Angled Brush
To be honest, I haven't really gotten to try it out yet. I WAS hoping it'd be a little thinner, but what can you do? For again only $3 I can't go wrong. I was planning on someday using this for my e.l.f. black Cream Eyeliner. Although not as thin as I would've liked, it is stiff enough.
Third review: Revlon Colorstay 16 Hour Eyeshadow Quad in 520 - Brazen
With a good base, these colors are much more pigmented. You get a midtoned yellow, and that DEFINITELY needs a good base. Same with the lighter bronze-y color. I have used this quad, and I really like it so far; especially good for an everyday eye look.
Fourth review: pixi Eye Bright Kit #2 - medium
Shades from left to right: darker tone concealer, shimmery highlighter, lighter tone concealer, salmon-y pink concealer.
I REALLY love this quad. It's an under-eye concealer quad from the brand pixi. I recently discovered this brand from another beauty guru (emilynoel83; love her!), and so far I'm very impressed. Not a drug-store brand, but still not considered too high end. I would really suggest getting this if you are olive/tanned skinned like me, and have really bad under-eye circles.
Fifth review: Maybelline Color Tattoos
Shades: Too Cool & Tough as Taupe.
I saw a lot of these on youtube and thought I would try out a couple. Too Cool is a shimmery white; gorgeous. Tough as Taupe is, you guessed it, a nice taupe color. FYI, these swatches aren't budging off of my hand no matter how hard I rub! It's amazing. These are GREAT crease-proof bases, but for a person with super oily eyelids like me, it doesn't last through gym even with UDPP underneath (they last through the whole day withOUT gym!) Still would totally recommend these.
Sixth review: e.l.f. Studio Single Eyeshadow - Saddle
(Ignore Color Tattoo swatches to the left)
I saw this at Dollar Tree and had to try it since it was only $1 instead of the usual $3. Very impressed! High pigmentation, silky smooth texture, and a beautiful finish. I will surely be trying out more of these in the future.
Seventh review: e.l.f. Essentials Brightening Eye Color - Teal Dream
These are really nice colors. But the pigmentation on the blue and "mint green" aren't that great. Using UDPP I was able to bring out their true colors. Also, since everyone's computer monitor is different, that "mint green" that I saw on the website wasn't very minty when I swatched it. Nonetheless, I would recommend picking up some of these quads, because for $.25 an eyeshadow, you can't go wrong.
Eight review: e.l.f. Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder - Sunkissed
I loooove it! Has the perfect amount of pigmentation, and has a nice natural "sunkissed" glow effect on the skin. It was hard for me to swatch though, because it does blend nicely into the skin.
Ninth review: e.l.f. 2 in 1 Conditioning Gloss
I also saw this at Dollar Tree and it really does look beautiful doesn't it? It adds a slight tint of gold to the lips with a nice touch of soft glitter. Really nice gloss for the holidays. These used to be made, like I stated in the video, with the color of the gloss in an inner tube, and the clear conditioning gloss in the outer tube. Naturally, that was too difficult for the majority of people to use, so they just turned it into one product. It surprisingly really does keep my lips nice and soft in the cold winter months!
Tenth (and final) review: e.l.f. Wet Gloss Lash & Brow Clear Mascara
