1st ELF HAUL

Hiii guys <3
So I am going to put up reviews of my e.l.f. haul for you guys, followed by a video after Christmas (sorry very busy!)... First of all, if you all don't know, e.l.f. (which stands for eyes lips face) is an AMAZING company. I first found out about them through youtube (ahanhbarbie34 SHOUTOUT!) Basically the goods behind them is that they are veryyy inexpensive. They have three main lines which include their regular professional line, mineral line, and studio line. The regular line is the cheapest.. everything is only $1!!! The other two lines are a bit more expensive (mostly all $3) but even that is crazy cheap. I was definitely really skeptical about the actual product though as I usually spend money on my makeup to make sure I have great quality. However, after trying my first shipment I was hooked! You may have to pick and choose which products are good for you but there is a great slection to pick from! These are the products I ordered:

Professional Line
1. Shimmering Facial Whip in "Spotlight" $1 Great for cheekbone highlight and smells great!
2. Plumping Lip Gloss in "Oasis" $1 Haven't noticed much plumping but the color is beautiful and is definitely worth the money! Pretty pink with orange shimmer.
3. Duo Eyeshadow in "Black Licorice" $1 Great grey/black combo. Works really well for smokey eyes. May need to pack it on the get color out of the grey but again.. for sure worth it for the price!
4. Clarifying Pressed Powder in "Ivory" $1 Works very well to help set makeup. Also very good size to throw in your purse and use for touch-ups during the day! Really reduces shine in the T-zone.

Mineral Line
5. Mineral Eyeshadow in "Angelic" $3 Very shimmery and perfect for browbone highlight.

Studio Line
6. 2 in 1 Conditionning Gloss in "Supermodel" $3 Great color, and very conditioning. Not very sticky and lasts long!
7. Minty Lip Gloss in "Nashville" $3 Amazing for creating a nude lip! It doesn't come out too drastic, and has a hint of pink. Also, the minty ness is great and makes you feel fresh!
8. Lip primer and plumper in "Clear/Natural" $3 Haven't noticed much plumping, but the primer definitey works! I use it daily under and lip product!
9. Single Eyeshadow in "Amethyst" $3 Very pretty dark purple color. It is a little more "brown" than appears on the website. Great for creating your "outer V"
10. Complexion Perfection $3 Love it! Hides redness, and dark under eye circles! Plus a very cute compact!
11. Contouring Blush and Bronzing powder $3 The perfect combo! Both the blush and the bronzer and very pretty and again.. adorable compact!
12. Under Eye Concealer and Highlighter in "Glow/Fair" $3 The under eye concealer works quite well.. but what I really love is the highlight! So cute.. use it and the shimmering facial whip daily!

So there you go guys.. just a quick overview of what is to come! Just to let you know that I will also be ordering a ton of stuff next week!! Stay tuned I will be putting up the list of what I am getting soon....

First Blog!!

Hey guys!

So I am writing my first blog ever.. hereee goes:

I am a really avid makeup/hair guru watcher haha! I am very intrigued with new looks, fashion etc. So I decided to just take the plunge and create my own youtube channel/blog! Basically what it is going to be is a little less of the "how-to" videos and more of product reviews and such. I will be doing hauls to try and keep you guys up to date with what is out there. I hope to help you makeup/fashion fans out with finding the latest products and what can work for you! Like I said, as I am not a "makeup artist" I will probably be doing less tutorials than you are used to however I will definitely do how-tos if you guys ask for them! To start out I am going to show you guys a couple hauls and some products and then if you guys like I will show you the methods behind them!! Stayyy tuned......

COMING UP:
1. Elf Haul
2. Lancome Haul
3. HOLIDAY HAUL (all my makeup I received over christmas which is cominnn up!/will be random assortment)

Thanks guys!
