More makeup organizing!

English: A while a go I bought a couple of two tier jars on a sale at H&M, perfect for keeping mineral samples in. I find it hard to use foundation samples that are in a bag so why not get them their own jar?  They are a bit big for the purpose but it was the only size they had on sale. On the last picture I took the smashed blush from E.L.F and put it in the jar instead of throwing it away. ^^

Swedish: För ett tag sen fyndade jag små burkar på H&M för halva priset. Perfekta för att förvara mineral prover i. Tycker det är jobbigt med foundation prover i påsar eftersom det hamnar precis överallt då. Burkarna är visserligen en aning för stora för prover men det var ju rea! På sista bilden har jag hällt över den krossade blushen från E.L.F i en av burkarna istället för att slänga allt.  ^^

Smashed

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

Look what I discovered when I got my latest order from E.L.F yesterday. The Natural Radiance Blusher (Shy) is totally smashed and powdered. THE HORROR! The other blusher I bought was just fine! Now I’m sad :|

Some stuff from Elf!

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

I recently bought some stuff from ELF (Eyes lips face) and this is what I got:

• Mineral Lipstick – Nicely Nude
  I was a bit disappointed since I thought the color would be more “nude” like the image on their website, but it was too pink/red for my taste.
• All Over Cover Stick – Fair
  Even though the color matched my skin quite good, I can’t use it since my skin is too dry for it. What a shame. I was surprised that it smelled “sugar orange”, I didn’t notice that on the website.
• Blending Eye Brush
  This brush is really good! Not too soft and not too hard. Perfect to work with!

(Take a look at other ELF products I’ve bought!)

First package from E.L.F

Friday, June 5th, 2009

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!
