Don't you just love ELF? I got these a while ago but i have never actually blogged about them because I find some of the products cant be really hit or miss.
I love the packaging as you can see i thought they looked a lot like the NARS Blush's where as the NARS Blushes have a matte case these don't.
The Product-
The ELF Studio Blush comes with 4.7g of product which is great because the NARS Blushes contain only 4.5g I find that sometimes the ELF Blush's can be a bit chalky but that doesnt make them a bad product they still apply great, the biggest thing about these that surprised me was the intense pigmentation of most shades. With one swipe you get so much colour so a light hand is needed because of the pigment.
Individual Shades
Pink Passion is a gorgeous barbie pink which is highly pigmented as well as a little chalky so a light hand is needed so you don't go all clown cheeks
This is maybe my favourite shade from ELF. It is quite comparable to NARS Angelika
Peachy Keen is a gorgeous golden colour which would look great as a highlight because it is not glittery more a sheen to it rather than glitter, the touch of this is soft and silky and applies well.
Peachy Keen is comparable to Nars Luster
Blushing Rose isnt my favourite shade because it is so deep, really warm almost red with a lot of glitter it would be good for deeper skin tones
Blushing Rose is comparable to MAC Love Rush
Berry Merry is light pink/warm colour with small flecks of glitter ((Bad Picture sorry)) It does look quite golden when swatched which i think is quite cute. This applies like the other colours soft and silky without being overly glittery
Berry Merry is comparable to NARS Sin
The last time for these blushes is okay, i wouldn't say it was amazing but if you use a cream blush or a cream product then these you will get a more lasting effect as it has something to hold onto and if you do loose the blush you still have a colour underneath
Over all I like these blush's, they are pigmented and affordable what's not to love!
ELF is available at eyeslipsface.co.uk or eyeslipsface.com and can also be found in some stores in the US

Pink passion looks so pigmented! I've tried some ELF products before and I wasn't overwhelmed (but then I suppose they're so cheap I can't really complain!), I'm definitely going to consider trying them out again after seeing this post :) x

Had no idea there were so many dupes by ELF! Its kind of hard to tell what the shades are like on the website because the pictures almost never match the actual colour. This is why these kind of blog posts are so helpful haha x
ReplyDeleteYeah exactly and you dont realise how good they are even though they are like 90% cheaper
ReplyDeleteAww thanks! yeah i try to do live swatches as well so you can actually see <3
ReplyDeleteELF is surprisingly fantastic! I found that one of their palettes is a dupe for UD Naked! I have not tried their blush but I've seen a lot of blogger praise!
ReplyDeleteP.S. thanks for sending me your link during #bbloggers! Just wanted to stop in and say hey!
