elf makeup

swatches
Hi ladies....

In the last few weeks I made a purchase from ELF when they had their free P&P offer on....I got a few things which I will review at a later date...Today I am going to review the e.l.f Eye Transformer...

e.l.f Eye Transformer

All of the colors are shimmers and the colors l-r are...

Light green shimmer
Peach shimmer
Pink shimmer
Blue purplish (that's a word now!!! lol..) shimmer....

First of I would like to say that I love both the standard and studio line that elf offers and have purchased many things in the past. I haven't really tried the mineral range as I don't tend to buy a lot of mineral products. You can get so much for your money with elf and I love to try loads of different things out..who doesn't!!lol...

The black packaging of this palette looks stylish and the plastic window at the top of the compact allows you to see what colors are in the compact...don't you just hate keep picking compacts up and opening them only to find its not the color you wanted...ahhhhhh...so top marks to e.l.f on this design. The mirror inside the compact is a decent size and you can easily see both of your eyes at the same time, so therefore you would be able to do your eye makeup no problem at all.

I tend to use this compact in two ways.....

Number 1.... During the day if I want a really light make up look I use any one of these colors as an normal eyeshadow and they gives your eyes that wide awake look...which we all need from time to time...hahaah...and also I use the same color just under my brow bone

Number 2.....Lets say I have used a navy blue eyeliner along the top & bottom of my lashes, then I would go over that line withe blue/purplish shimmer..it completely changes the color of the eyeliner and makes it brighter...again making your eyes sparkly...

Number 3....I haven't tried this yet....but any of the colors would be good as highlighters on top of the cheeks or (my favourite trick) pressed on to your lipstick on the bottom lip in the center or on your cupids brow...

So as you can see this compact has loads of uses and there is plenty of product for you to have a play around...Thanks e.l.f I love this compact...

Have any of you ladies got this compact??    Do you love it as much as I do???

  1. Thank you for this post. I'm a bit reluctant to buy this product because it is the type of product that I would just buy, use it at first and then just forget about it. But that's just me. I adore elf though.

  3. Awesome review! I havent tried this palette yet cos I find with ELF I tend to buy LOADS of goodies in one go and then I'll go for ages without buying anything. I think I'm definitely due a little treat so this palette will be on the list :)
