E.L.F Lip Haul


Well I recently had a lovely E.L.F haul and wanted to show the haul in different sections, so first up is all the yummy lip products! yay! 

I decided to get a variety of the lip products as I had not seen many reviews or uses in YT videos, so thought I would have to find out for myself! 

Here are the delightful bunch :)





E.L.F Studio Matte Lip Colour! - Praline

Well, I have to say that I absolutely LOVE this lip pen! It glides on well and even though its matte it doesn't dry out your lips (which is important for me as I have the driest skin on planet earth!) it is actually quite moisturising which I wasn't expecting!. Also what I noticed about this lip colour is that it lasts for ages, it even survived a cheese sandwich which in my book means a great deal when it comes to lasting lip colour!

The other colours they have in this Studio Range are beautiful, ranging from a pale nude to this gorgeous Praline and I will certainly be getting more of these, they are perfect to wear under gloss and the sleek pen style helps it to be easily carried in your purse or handbag.



   you can buy this product direct from the E.L.F website HERE.





E.L.F Mineral Lipstick


This lipstick range beautiful for a many reasons,
1. They are 200% mineral based and full of gorgeousness such as Shea butter, Jojoba and coconut oil! yum!
2. They are really moisturising and as I have said before, my skin gets really dry so needs all the help it can get to retain moisture!
3. The cost is great at £3.50! you can buy direct from the E.L.F website HERE
4. They come in a HUGE range of colours!

Nicely Nude
I adore the colour of this lipstick, its a perfect spring/summer colour, its not too heavy and feels like your wearing a really nourishing lip balm! It is described as having gold in it which is really subtle and gives it a really nice sheen effect.






Cheeful Cherry

Although I love this lipstick for all the many reasons I listed above, sadly this cheerful cherry is a bit too cheerful for me! For me this is too winey in colour which does not suit my skin tone at all and I was hoping for a deeper cherry colour, however, I know this will suit many other people so it will be happily placed in my kit which I am building up for when I become a pro MUA! 












E.L.F Hypershine Lip-gloss's & Luscious Liquid Lipstick


These lipgloss's and liquid lipstick are really thick in consistency and quite tacky (you certainly don't want to get your hair stuck in it!), so I would avoid wearing it on a windy day!.

Although the colour looks quite strong when the gloss is sitting in its tube, when applied it becomes very sheer and only shows a hint of colour! I even struggled to identify between the Ruby slipper liquid lipstick or the Mauve hypershine in the photos that I took - and still wondering if I got the selection right! You will have to let me know what you think!

The price of the hypershine gloss is £1.50, which I think is excellent value for the amount of product that you get!

The price of the luscious liquid lipstick is also at an incredible £1.50! 

You can buy these lip-gloss's directly from the E.L.F website HERE

You can buy the liquid lipstick directly from the E.L.F website HERE


Hypershine Gloss - Bare






Hypershine Gloss - Mauve






Luscious Liquid Lipstick - Ruby Slipper









E.L.F Glossy Gloss

These glossy gloss's are from the E.L.F studio range and cost £3.50 each, the colour pay off of these gloss's are fantastic and can easily be worn on their own when you want a strong colour or over any lipstick. Again, as above theses gloss's do last quite a while before you feel the need to 'top-up' and also I found they didn't leave an uneven looking stain to my lip if I chose not to re-apply.

The applicator looks quite simple but effective, however I have only applied these using my finger as these will be a must have in my make-up kit for using on clients!


You get get your hands on these lovely glossy gloss's directly from the E.L.F website HERE







I hope you found this review helpful! :)
