Haul ELF (Eyes Lips Face) & swatches

Hello beautiful people,

I order few articles on ELF website and I would like to share it with you.
There is some new stuff that I wanted to try.

Contour palette

Currently, make-up is all about contouring and highlighting, so I also want to test it on myself. I’m curious to find out, if I’ll be able to do it properly and if it can look great on me.
I wanted to do it right, so I bought a contour brush and a fan brush to help me in my “contour and highlight quest”.

I also add in my basket the contour palette (8,00€) to sculpt and highlight my face where needed.
The palette contains 4 gorgeous shades: an highlighter, a brightener, an orangey-brownish color that I’ll probably use as a blush and a bronzer. They are really smooth and some of them feel creamy.

Even if those shadows are pigmented, I would recommend them only for light to medium skin tone, but definitively not for darker skin as this palette is only available in light color.

Baked highlighter

I also wanted to try the baked highlighter in shade moonlight pearls (5,00€), just in case, I do not like the one from the contour palette.
This highlighter is supposed to be a dupe from Mary-Lou Manizer by The Balm, but sadly I can not confirm as it’s always out of stock in my Di shop.

This shade is more subtle than the one from the contour palette but really beautiful.

Lock on liner and brow cream

The lock on liner and brow cream (6,00€) is also a newcomer.
I’m used to use powder for years to do my brows, I think that the powder gives a more natural look.
But I’m excited to try something different: a pomade/cream.

Can it look natural even if it’s cream? I will try.

I’m also curious as ELF mentioned that it’s long-lasting and can also be used as eye-shadow and eyeliner.
I’m wondering, as this product is a brow cream if this product will not be too heavy and sticky for the eyelid…

Following my swatches (light brown and medium brown), I could already notice that the cream doesn’t transfer and seems long-lasting indeed.

And for once, brunette will be happy, there is absolutely no red undertone.
