Elf Luscious Liquid Lipstick in Pink Lemonade

Hello Lovelies,

Today I wanted to tell you about something I bought recently and have been really enjoying using and that is Elf's Luscious Liquid Lipstick in Pink Lemonade. I posted about what I ordered here and until this order I hadn’t tried anything from Elf, but so far I have been really impressed and have already placed my second order! I just wish I had taken advantage of their recent 50% off offer!


When I bought this I wasn’t really sure what it would be like and although it is described as a liquid lipstick I think it is more like a lip gloss than a lipstick. It is quite sheer, but this one gives your lips a lovely pink colour and it has gold shimmer in it too, which I really like. Although this is more like a lip gloss than a lipstick it is not sticky like some lip glosses can be and feels quite moisturising. It also has a slight minty scent which I really like. I have used this on its own and over a lipstick and really can’t fault it and my friend tried it when we went out last weekend and she also really liked it.

To use this you twist the bottom of the tube and the liquid lipstick comes out of the sponge applicator at the top. I really like this sort of applicator and it is really to apply. Elf say this has ‘Intensive hydrating agents along with natural pigments leave lips with Long-lasting colour and moisture’ and I would agree with this.

This was only £1.50 which I think is a bargain and if you buy it when Elf has an offer on you can get yourself even more of a bargain. I liked this so much that when Elf had an offer last weekend of 30% off and free postage when you spent over £25 I bought another one in this colour and three other colours and I can’t wait to try them. The only downside I can think to this is that this only contains 1.5g and so won’t last very long, but for the price I don’t mind.

Have you tried these?

Thanks for reading :)

A little Elf Haul

Hello Lovelies, 

I have been wanting to try Elf's Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder in the shade St Lucia for a while, so when I saw on Twitter last week that Elf had an offer of free postage I decided to order it and after having a quick browse on their website I ended up ordering a few other bits too. 


I am so pleased I decided to order the Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder, the blush and bronzer are both gorgeous colours and the blush looks quite shimmery (the photo doesn't really show how shimmery it looks), and I love shimmery blushes. I also really like the packaging and I think it makes it look more expensive than it is and it is great that it comes with a mirror in the lid. It was only £3.75, which I think is a really good price for a duo like this and I can't wait to try it.  


I also got three of their eye makeup brushes, they were only £1.50 each so I thought I would give them a try. I got an Eyeshadow Brush, a Defining Eye Brush and an Eye Crease Brush. I haven't used them yet, so not sure what they are like but I thought for the price they were worth a try and they feel quite soft.  


They had some nail polishes that I think were on offer, because they were called 'Last Chance Nail Polish' and they were only £1, so I got a couple of these too. I got Rosy Raisin which is a gorgeous dark pink and Cranberry which is a dark shimmery red, which will be perfect for this time of year. I haven't tried these yet, but the brushes look quite big and they look like the sort of brushes that are nice to use.


Lastly I got a Luscious Liquid Lipstick in Pink Lemonade. This was only £1.50 and is a lovely pink colour with a bit of gold shimmer in it. I'm not sure whether this will be like a lipstick or more like a lipgloss, but I'm looking forward to trying it. 


Have you tried any of these products? Do you like them?
