*Elf Haul/ First Impressions*


About a week ago, I purchased a few things from elf cosmetics and I am excited to share them with you! I really like shopping at elf because their products are so affordable. Some people think that if something is at a cheaper price, it's not a good product. But that is not true at all, elf products are of good quality and lasts long! When I brought these products, it was a free shipping/ no minimum price deal. All together these products costs $10, you can't get any better than that!
 


Brightening Eyeliner Pencil (Plum)
I love wearing eyeliner, it gives my eyes that pop of color I for them to stand out. This is a beautiful plum color, that's pigmented and great for fall! One thing I really love about this eyeliner, is the fact that it comes with a sharpener. This brightening eyeliner is supposed to glide on without tugging. It is also suppose to instantly brighten and define the eye. I definitely recommend this eyeliner, it's so pretty and it is very easy to apply.

 
Lip Exfoliator
A while back I posted a quick and easy recipe for my "DIY exfoliator". It's cheaper and great to make, plus it can be used to exfoliate the whole body and the face! Recently I've been curious to try a lip exfoliator from the store. I was a little skeptical on whether or not it would really work. But I purchased it anyway. This exfoliator is supposed to, gently exfoliate the lips to remove dry chapped skin with a sugary sweet and smoothing sensation. It also treats and smoothes lips for a conditioned and revitalized feel. Infused with Vitamin E, Shea butter, Avocado, Grape, and Jojoba oil to nourish and protect. I must say that this lip exfoliator is good and it actually works. While applying I felt my lips being moisturized at the same time. I like how the ingredients are natural and it's great for your skin.


Precision Liquid Eyeliner
Believe it or not, but I've never tried a liquid eyeliner before. I'm a little embarrassed to say this, but it's true! I found this liquid eyeliner and I knew it was meant to be, so I thought. The precision eyeliner is supposed to be a long lasting formula and pigment rich color, glides on for defined lines. One thing I must say is that it is very pigmented. Since this is my first time wearing a liquid eyeliner, this experience was not the best. I probably applied the eyeliner wrong, so it might not have been the eyeliner itself. When first applying it, I put on my water line. I guess because it's liquid the eyeliner went into my eye. But I am going to try it again and see how I feel.


Lip Primer & Plumper
I am not the type of person who is really into wearing lipstick. I've just always worn clear lip gloss and lip balm. But lately I've been really interested in trying new things. I've been inspired while watching YouTube videos and reading blogs, to expand my beauty collection! So while trying out different lipsticks, I notice that when I take it off my lips are stained. After that experience, I decided to purchase a lip primer. Attached to this primer is a lip plumper on the other end. I will not be using the plumper, because m lips are already full. The elf lip primer and plumper are supposed to achieve long lasting lip color and sexy plumped lips. The primer creates a base for lip color, that is supposed to last all day. The plumper enhances your lips with a seductive sweet cinnamon scent. Again I do not need to use the plumper, so I can't really say whether it works or not. But what I can tell you is that, the primer is definitely worth it. It applies on easy and lip color definitely stands out. My lip color last for hours and I was very impressed!
 
If you try or have tried these products before, let me know!

  1. I've heard good things about that lip exfoliator- I need to try it.
    Have you tried their brushes from the studio line? They're amazing.

Finding My Passion For Blogging Again

  At some point in time, when your heart isn’t into something you should take a break. Blogging is great and I couldn’t see myself without it. However sometimes it can get overwhelming and that’s what happened to me this year. For about eight months I have not blogged and I thought I was a bad person for that. I have realized that it was best to take the long break. In doing so, I have found so many things I love to talk about. I was holding myself back because I put a label on myself, wanting to be known as a beauty blogger. Sure I attached the lifestyle part, but honestly I don’t really know what that means.  During this year I had time to reflect on where I wanted my blog to go and whether I even wanted to write anymore. Honestly the motivation to blog was not there at all and at that time, I really didn’t care if I continued. I did not want to look at my blog or deal with it. For me I was tired of putting in the work and not getting anything in return. Meaning no one was r

E.l.f. Eye Brushes

Although this haul is very small, I just wanted to share with you what I brought. I decided to buy brushes, because I needed them more! The first brushes I were eco-friendly and were really good, but their were more face brushes, then eye brushes. So that wasn't really helpful to me. It was only one eye shadow brush. I rarely shop online, I always go to the store. But I was bored one day and I guess this is what happened! I am really excited to try these brushes! I also brought some things from BH cosmetics, but that's for another post! Eye Shadow Brush The eye shadow brush is supposed to help apply the eye shadow evenly and make it easier. This sounds good, because the brushes I used in the past were tough and hard. It seemed like I had to put a lot of eye shadow on, before it actually showed up on my eyes. Blending Eye Brush This brush is supposed to blend the eye shadows, while softening dramatic edges and lines. This is really good, because before I ha
