Mini Elf Haul.


Hello dolls!
I've recently been reading lots of blog posts about Elf cosmetics, and decided to order a few bits. These were the first products I've actually tried from Elf, so I had high hopes from the things I bought.


So I ordered 5 products-
All over cover stick in ivory
Blush in tickled pink
Eyebrow kit in light
Daily brush cleaner
Flawless concealer brush

These all came on Friday so it's gave me chance to use them all so I can do a little review on each product.


All over cover stick in ivory
I got this product as I was wanting to try a new concealer rather than my Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. At only £1.50, it was an absolute bargain! You don't get much of the concealer itself, but given the price I wasn't expecting much. It's a really nice, creamy concealer, and I use it just for under my eyes with a normal concealer brush, and it works wonders. It works better with your average concealer brush, rather than one like the flawless concealer brush.



Blush in tickled pink
I've seen plenty of bloggers rave about the Elf blushers, so I thought I'd get one to try. As soon as I seen this gorgeous pink colour, I knew it was the one I had to get. It looks really natural when applied, which I love, and isn't too much. It's not as pigmented as I thought it would be, but it's still a gorgeous blush. I definitely recommend them and will be ordering more. At £3.75, how can I resist!



Eyebrow kit in light
This was the product I was most excited about. It was something else I'd seen being raved about in the beauty blogging world, and I knew I had to give it a try. I've never applied my eyebrows in this context (using gel and powder), but I love how precise I can apply my eyebrow colour using the gel, and they set for the majority of the day, which I was pleased about. Overall an incredible product.



Daily brush cleaner
I got this product because, like a lot of people, I can tend to get lazy and not be bothered to clean my make up brushes. But I'm now in the routine of cleaning my brushes every week, so I just got this to ensure my brushes stay relatively clean in-between washes. It works really well, and gets the majority of product out of my brushes. I'll definitely be repurchasing this when mine runs out!


Flawless concealer brush
I know this is a concealer brush, but I don't use it as a concealer brush. Since I've been using my Fit Me foundation, I've noticed it doesn't give me as much coverage as I'd have hoped, but my Rimmel 25 hours foundation it really good for hiding a bad complexion. So I use this brush with my Rimmel foundation to just blend it onto my cheeks, for more cover. It's a really dense brush and works excellently, which is encouraging me to get some more Elf brushes now I know how good quality this one is.

And that's all for my Elf haul! Let me know what you guys think, and if you have any other Elf products to recommend!
