Beauty Product Reviews
Love love love love love! I love ELF's studio line brushes. The quality of the brushes is outstanding especially because they're super inexpensive ($3 +tax). I use this to set my foundation with a translucent powder and I also use this if I use mineral powder foundation. Its ability to blend is exceptional!

When I first bought this product, I absolutely loved it. I thought it was a great investment. For about six months, it did exactly what it was supposed to do: bring out the colors of eyeshadows, increase the time the eyeshadow stays on, no creasing, etc. However, after about six months of using it, I came home after about 2 hours of wearing makeup, and my eyeshadow had creased on BOTH eyes. I thought it was just that one day, so I kept using it. Unfortunately, it continued to crease.
I absolutely LOVE love love this product. My lips are very sensitive to certain lip balms (specifically the stick kind). I usually have to use carmex because of the liquid texture. So, I was a little skeptical about trying this to begin with, but I took a chance and I'm glad I did. My lips do not react to this product whatsoever, in fact, my lips stay moisturized all day. This product is extremely pigmented as well, however the colors in the online selection are not true to the color in real life. That's the only down fall to having most ELF products online only. None the less, I would definitely be repurchasing this product as soon as I run out, which would take a while because it comes with a lot and you don't have to use a lot for application (and I have pretty big lips!).
The main reasons that I bought it was for the price and I really needed a new foundation because I had gotten lighter and my old foundation was too dark. I usually don't buy drugstore products without watching or reading reviews because my skin is so sensitive, but I was desperate! I LOVE it! (: It's my current favorite foundation to date, and I seem to bring myself to buy any other kind. It does everything that it says on the packaging, and it smells really good too! I have red blotches on my cheeks, and I don't have to use concealer when I use this foundation. The coverage is between medium to full coverage. There is a wide variety of colors! I picked my correct shade (230) on the first try. I keep this product in my kit for proms/weddings/etc.
I would definitely repurchase.
