I really appreciate all of the feedback that I got from my last makeup post. I am diving into wearing more makeup and your encouraging words and tips are so helpful and appreciated. If you haven’t check out that post, there’s A LOT of valuable information in the comments section, so please do.
ELF Cosmetics is a cruelty-free, vegan company (excluding a few brushes) and have hundreds of affordable items. To be completely honest most of my makeup are ELF products. I got no shame in that. I’m new to the makeup game. I’ve been wearing foundation, mascara and eyeliner for more than 10 years but lipstick? liquid eyeliner? eyeshadow? I’m starting to get the hang of it but I’m still learning.
I bought some of their Moisturizing Lipstick at Target and it worked so well on me! I ordered more. I’ve been enjoying Rosy-Go-Round and Red Carpet. I also got the Mineral Lipstick in Ripe Rose to have a more autumn looking lipstick. (I’m wearing it in this photo.) It looks a lot more pigmented in the online listing. I wish it was darker, but I do like it.
For a few years I’ve been using mineral foundation but after watching so many YouTubers use liquid foundation, I wanted to try it out again. I don’t know why I thought to choose the color “Buff” but it was way too dark. I went back to Target and bought “Porcelain.” I think “Buff” might work in the summer. We’ll see.
The eye shadow palette was a freebie because I order a certain amount. I’m really excited to have all of these colors to play with! Now I just have to figure out how to mix and match. I also don’t wear many colors so it will get me out of my comfort zone.
So this is my ELF haul! What do you think? Do you have any favorite ELF products?
I’d love to hear about it!
