My box of joy :) |
When the Studio Conditioning Lip Balms (with spf 15) first came out in th UK, I managed to convince myself that I had lots of lipbalms (I have a bit of a lip balm addiciton) so I didn't need them. However, after seeing several reviews and swatches, I simply had to have them!

My first impression of these is that they are awesome- they smell really nice (I can't place what they smell of though) and they feel really moisturising- plus they are well pigmented, giving a nice sheer colour on the lips.
(Studio) Powder Brush, and (regular line) Foundation brush. |
This Powder Brush is the softest thing I've ever felt (it's even softer than Nibbles!) and after I unpacked my box I spent a good 10 minutes just stroking my face with it (I'm not alone either, several people on the e.l.f. facebook fan page do it too!) I bought the foundation brush mainly for applying face masks- I love using face masks, but I hate using my fingers to apply them- product gets stuck between my fingers and it never gets applied evenly. (I have the house to myself tonight so I'll be using a face mask and testing my brush, watching a film and eating chocolate :)
These are the mini eyelash curlers (from the studio range) which I got beacuse I have really straight (but long) lashes, and sometimes my usual curlers (which I love, and are irreplaceable) can't get to the corner lashes properly.

With flash. The colours aren't so accurate but it shows off the lovely pearl and glitter effects. |
I love e.l.f. polishes, and thanks to Ida Pie's e.l.f. polish swatches (yes I'm blaming you entirely! :p ) I chose some more shades I had to get my hands on (for 75p!) I've not worn any of these polishes yet (I'm still sporting a heavily chipped random colour and crackle combination) but I love the colours :)
Did you get anything with the 50% off offer?

elf studio brushes are the best i have ever used xx
ReplyDeleteThis is the first studio brush I've purchased (I love the regular line ones though) I'm excited to try it out properly :)
ReplyDeleteThe powder brush is fantastic for powders and liquids, have three! I wanted to do a order for the 50% off but they were out of stock on things I wanted :(
ReplyDeleteI'm LOVING mine so far too :) To be honest it's probably a good thing they were out of stock of some things- I bought enough things as it is!
