Sequins and Sea Breezes: eyes.lips.face

Happy Humpday lovelies! I recently got another group of elf products in the mail that I'm excited to share with you! I've been wanting to try out the elf skin care line for awhile now so when these showed up at my door I was super excited to test them out. I've continued to be impressed with the elf products and for the price you really don't have an excuse not to try it!


The e.l.f Flawless Eyeshadow is perfect for traveling or every day. The step by step "guide" helps you achieve a flawless look or you can use the shadows individually on their own. I love that the black doesn't have any shimmer in it which makes it before for lining your eyes if you don't have eye liner available.


The e.l.f Daily Hydration Moisturizer is an Allure 2015 Best of Beauty Award Winner and after using it, I see why. This is a very lightweight, lightly scented moisturizer that leaves my skin feeling smooth and soft. I love that it doesn't feel heavy on my skin and dries relatively quickly. I only use it at night as I prefer a moisturizer with an SPF during the day. The Facial Massager is an "eh" in my opinion. I didn't hate it, I didn't love it. I definitely didn't notice any huge changes in my skin after using it so I probably wouldn't purchase on my own.


The Cream Blush Palette is something I've never tried before. I usually stick to powder blush but I like that the cream blush is easily build-able and blend-able. You don't even need a brush to apply this blush, you can easily swipe it on with your finger tips to create a flushed glow. 


Last is the e.l.f. Satin Lipstick in Touch of Berry. I've been incredibly impressed with the e.l.f lipsticks so I had high hopes for this one but sadly I didn't love the color. The berry is a pretty shade but lately I've been more drawn to nudes so I think I would have preferred the nude color. This is a much lighter weight formula than the other lipsticks I've tried from e.l.f so it feels a bit more like a chapstick than a lipstick. I might give the nude color a try and see how I like it though!

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

  6. That facial massager looks like a fun tool to help apply your moisturizer, so I'm sad to hear it was "meh". But how gorgeous is that cream blush palette, and that lip color will look fantastic on you even if it's not a nude shade <3

  11. I love when eye shadows tell you how you should apply the colors! I'm so illiterate sometimes when it comes to applying makeup, that I need the help! That sucks that you didn't really care for the color of the lipstick!

  16. I was at Target on Monday and briefly checked out some of the Elf makeup. I say briefly because I was with my husband haha. I'm all about the step-by-step guide with eyeshadows! :-) Those eyeshadows and the blushes are pretty. Sorry about the lipstick though. I prefer when darker colors like that are more pigmented instead of being like a chapstick. If you try a nude shade, I want to hear your thoughts on it. Thanks for sharing and I hope that you have a great day!! :-)
