Elf Cosmetics Mini Haul

 
I'm not a makeup expert and I don't wear a lot of makeup. If I do it's only for my eyes and my lips. I'm a simple kind of girl, plus it's too much work for me. So I commend all of you who use primer, foundation and contour! I give you  girls and guys props for that. In the past I talked about how much I love elf cosmetics, second to BH Cosmetics though! They are both affordable plus their good quality! So here's a small haul of the things I brought from elf. These purchases were a couple of weeks apart. Both of these purchases also included free shipping with no minimum. I jumped on this opportunity quick.  
 
Shadow Lock Eyelid Primer
There's only two eye primers I like and that's the elf eyelid primer and NYX eyeshadow base. Would you count this base as an eye primer? Anyway, I ran out of this eyelid primer so I brought two. It only costs $2 each so if I ran out I can move on to the next one. The color comes in sheer, but it won't affect how your eyeshadow looks. When I first tried this I worried about this. But it does not make a difference at all. 
 
Long Wear Lip Liner Pencil (Bitter)
Fall is here and I love dark purples and reds. So I cannot wait to try this lip liner in the color bitter. It looks burgundy but I will have to swatch and actually see it. This lip pencil glides on to prep the lips for color. The pro vitamin complex included helps gently lock in rich, natural looking lip color. I'm really excited to try this out.
 
Lip & Cheek Duo Stick (Rose) Matte and Shimmer
Until recently when reading a few blogs, I didn't know anything about a lip & cheek duo stick. I love how one side provides a shimmer look and the other a matte look. It gives you the option of what you want to wear that day. So I can't wait to try this! 
 
I hope you enjoyed reading and if you have any new items I should check out, let me know!

  1. I love the idea of the Primer, I've never used this brand before but think I will invest in the primer now I need a new one http://everydayadventure365.blogspot.co.uk/

  2. I've heard of the Elf brand but never tried any of the products, but I always hear good things about the brand. I love the sound of the matte and shimmer duo, sounds great for day to night looks :)

Being a blogger is not easy at all, whether it's a hobby or a job. Every blogger works so hard to put out quality work. But sometimes it can be a struggle. While in a blogging rut I came across a lot of posts that have helped me gain confidence. These posts also helped me realize my creativity; all I needed to do was use my noggin! But before you click on the links below, I'm going to explain what these links mean to me. I don't want to bore you but I'm hoping these will help you too.   Everytime I get into a blogging rut I always look at my blog design. Thinking that the design I have is always the problem, I go and I spend money to change it. In reality the major problem was myself. Now don't get me wrong, designs I've had were beautiful it just wasn't for me. During my long "break" or breakdown I did a lot of searching. I'm pretty sure you all heard of Etsy, am I right? This is where I found two shops that have helped me tremendous...

My Top 5 Current Beauty Favorites!

  I'm not one who has a lot of favorite products, but when I do it's worth sharing. Call me boring, but I'm someone who follows all the trends. Half of the time I don't even buy products that are "most known" or "popular". At the moment I have a handful of products I'm really loving. I'm a picky person when it comes to a lot of things, but these products are great to use. If you are on a budget these products are very affordable and they definitely don't disappoint!   Swissco Detangle Brush I love this detangler brush, it works great on my hair. Although I found this at Marshalls you can find online as well. Both prices are $6! That's very affordable in my opinion, compared to brushes that cost double. You can use this on wet and dry hair. I've tried both and it works very good. When it's time to twist or braid my hair I will use this brush. Most importantly I will use this brush before washing my hair and during th...

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 h...
