My Must Have
These are a must have for me, I am constantly having to do my make-up in my car on my way to school. These are great because they don't take up much room in my make-up bag, have 4 shadows so I can make more than one look with each quad and have great pigmentation. Only negatives are a little fall out which happens with most eyeshadows, and you can't really fit that big of a brush in the eyeshadow pans, but the brush I use works fine.
Amazing Multi-Purpose Product
I have this in Lilac Petal & spotlight. It comes in a small tube but a little goes a long way and its only $1. This is one of my favorite ELF products. I use this as a cheek color, lipstick & eye primer. This works great on me for a lipstick, the lilac petal one looks like a pinkish nude on my lips and it doesn't look dry on my lips. This works great as a shimmery cream blush. But I love to use this mostly as an eye primer, I sometimes like this more then the ELF eyelid primer, which is saying a lot because I like the eyelid primer a lot! it smells good too which is always a plus.
Not That Good
I am on a very tight budget and took my chances on getting this instead of the Coastal Scents 88 palette figuring I would save $10, but I wish I would have just spent the extra money. I was so excited when I got this, and about a month into owning this I realized I never really use it because a lot of the colors are pretty much the same or just not that pigmented when applied on the eye, but look pigmented when swatched. The lighter colors are great, I use the highlight colors all the time, and I use the brighter colors a lot too. But the "darker" colors just greatly lack color pay off, even when used wet. This palette is good for a beginner but not really for more experienced make-up lovers.
Great Bargain
This is a great bargain at just $1, worth having more than one. This brush can be used for more than just packing color on the lid, I use it for adding highlight, putting color on the lower lash line, blending harsh lines that don't blend well with a regular blending brush, and even for putting color in the crease. I use this a lot when I have to do my make-up in the car, I just bring this one brush and it works great for my whole eye make-up, except eyeliner of course.
Try It Out!
This is my favorite liquid eyeliner so far. I only bought this in black because I wanted to make sure it was good before I got more colors. I know a lot of people say that they didn't like it because they got a dried out one, but mine wasn't dried out at all. This eyeliner is so great, i have a very shaky hand so using liquid eyeliner is so hard for me, but this very thin tip makes it very easy for me to apply. The black is the perfect black, its not like a dark grey like some others I have tried are, this is veryy black. i wouldn't call it waterproof tho, more like water resistant. But I think everyone should at least try this eyeliner, its only $1 and you might end up saving money by replacing an expensive one like I did.
Great Staying Power!
I bought this primer a few months ago because my Mary Kay one just wasn't doing it for me, and I am so glad I bought this one, there is no need for me to look for a better one. It's such a great value at only $1, you might think it won't be good because its so cheap but you would be wrong. When I use this my eyeshadow lasts until I take it off and looks the same all through the day. It has a sticky consistency, but not too sticky that you can't blend, unlike the Mary Kay one that felt like I was just putting on lotion and only lasted a few hours. I would say that it does in fact make the color of eyeshadows more vibrant and does great at making cream shadows not crease, if used right that is.
