Tease ;)

So I recently got a mini elf haul, I ordered a few things alog with my mom and sister. I ordered my first ELF Studio cream blush in Tease. Let me just say, ELF impresses me more and more daily. There has yet to be a product from them that I have hated (and I own quite alot of elf). I wanted to wear the blush before I did a review on it. So yesterday I decided I would try it out. I used my stipple brush first as I have heard that being a good way to apply it. I only did a light coat with the brush when I decided I wanted to apply with my fingers for more of a controlled application. I couldn't decided if I should set it with a powder blush or a translucent powder so I ended up using both. I will probably be sticking to using the Elf studio translucent powder as I dont like the idea of covering it with another color.

 Also the only downfall to me is the size. As u can see in the picture compared to the cream eye shadow its HUGE. I wouldn't carry in around in my purse or anything as its too bulky.  But you do get alot of product.








Its not like cream at all, its more towards a mousse feel and ends with a smooth powder finish. I was wearing for about 11 hours before I washed my face and I could still see the color on my cheeks. Tease is a very nice light rose/pink natural color, I would imagine looking nice on almost anyone. I couldn't choose between Heart Breaker or Tease, but I did some research and decided Heart Breaker was a bit brighter pink and wanted to go for something a bit different. After trying one of these blushes tho, I will definitely be purchasing Heart Breaker on my next haul :)


















Do any of you use cream blush regularly? Let me know if you have tried any that are a must have!

Oil and shine no more! ELF translucent powder

Another wonderful product from my favorite brand ELF.... The Studio Translucent Matifying powder.


Elf claims "Achieve even flawless skin that’s smoother, redefined and shine free. This translucent powder works on a wide variety of skin tones to help set your makeup in so it lasts longer. The silky lightweight formula also miraculously mattes skin to diminish oil and shine for a beautiful and healthy look! "

Living in Florida its very humid, which means 24/7 oily face. This products helps me so much. Mid afternoon I put some on my forehead and my nose and the shine was totally gone, and stayed that way until night time. It makes my face feel baby soft and is completely translucent on my skin. (My skin color is Medium beige, I use Sephora mattifying foundation powder in D25)

It comes with a good size sponge on one side (I usually don't use brushes/sponges that come with products but this one works really good with the product) , and has the product on the other half. It also has a full sized mirror which is very handy. If any of you have tired this product let me know what you think! xoxo

My go-to product

This is my very first blog! yay! So to start of im going to do a review of a product from one of my favorite make up lines..... ELF!


  Studio Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder. Elf says "Create a healthy and natural glow all year long. The Blush highlights the cheeks to add a flush of color, while the Bronzer accents and contours cheekbones for beautiful definition."

The packaging is lovely, sleek black with a huge mirror inside. The colors are amazing, the blush is a nice pink with a little bit of shimmer. I think this color would look good on anyone. The bronzer is a rich brown with a small amount of shimmer. I've noticed alot of people saying the bronzer is to dark and looks dirty, but it does exactly what its made for (contouring) and once you blend it in it gives you great definition. This is  my go-to daily product. I keep one in my purse and one in my make up box at home. For $3 this is a steal. Do you have one product at the moment that you just cant live without? Let me know :)
