Got my very first package from eyeslipsface.co.uk in the mail today (it took a week to get it). E.L.F is a cosmetics company with very low prices ($1 a piece). And I was curious of some of their things so when I had the ability to add a free shipping coupon I took the chance to order some stuff.

I got the Eyelash and Brow Wand, Slant Tweezer, Feather Proof Moisturizing Lip Liner in the color Natural Blush and a Plumping Lip Glaze in the color Ruby Kiss.

• The Eyelash and Brow Wand does what it should even though I think it’s in poor quality.
• The Slant Tweezer has a good grip and that’s about it. I think my old one is better!
• The Feather Proof Moisturising Lip Line was really good, even though the color was a bit darker than shown. The lips didn’t get dry (I use it to color all of the lip area, like a lipstick sort of, to get the matte natural look) and I had it on for several hours.
• The Plumping Lip Glaze had the right color. It has two sides, a glossy side with a minty smell that really tingles upon application (and for quite a while afterward – it feels like the lips get bigger but they don’t) and a color side. The color is great (I’m not sure how long it can stay on though) but it has an unpleasant chemical smell, I didn’t like it much. It looked pretty though!

I’m not sure if I’m going to order again, but I think you can get both good and bad products from E.L.F and it’s worth trying out if you want cheap cosmetics. Don’t have too high hopes!

   Både Göteborg och Köpenhamn låter skitbra! Det går ju att åka på rabattkort till båda städerna och jag har ett rabattkort med nästan 3000 kr på, så själva resan dit är ju inga problem alls. Boende borde ju inte heller vara så svårt att hitta, tror jag i alla fall.

   Hade tänkt att försöka kolla in Beyond Retro när jag är i Stockholm, har läst så himla mycket om den affären i olika bloggar så det känns som att jag skulle vilja kolla in vad som finns där =)

   I have some eyeshadows from ELF that I absolutely love. You should consider trying those out. As for tools, I always choose different, more expensive brands. There’s only so much quality you could get for $1 tools.
