A beauty blog this time
Now I've talked about this company before and recommended it
http://www.eyeslipsface.co.uk/ so I've been road testing a few more products by them. As I used to be a college lecturer in Holistic Therapies and Beauty Therapy, you don't need to spend a lot of money on products, much of the money is spent on fancy packaging, some of the budget brands work better than high end products and ELF is one of those. The packaging although fairly basic, doesn't look cheap but what makes this company special is their products are as good and effective as the high end ones. They also have a huge range of products and are continually adding to their range. I certainly would recommend their products to students and professionals for their clients.
Today's products are
This is great and very finely milled and a fraction of the cost of some, and I have to say better than high end brands.
High Definition Powder
The high definition loose powder creates a "soft focus" effect to the skin. Masks fine lines and imperfections for a radiant complexion. The incredibly soft and invisible powder is great for on-screen and everyday wear.
I love this too and again a fantastic price and works beautifully.
Foundation
Our weightless mineral foundation will help get you on your way to healthier illuminating skin. All our powders blend naturally into the skin, and are so light that they work with your skin colour to create a perfect colour match. All of our foundations contain sun protection factor (spf) 15 and are 100% mineral based with no parabens, no preservatives and no chemical dyes.
Another great little product, I've tried the brown one (coffee) and comes with a great little brush for fool proof application
Cream Eyeliner
Creates smooth lines that are defined and precise. Smudge-proof, budge-proof and water-resistant coverage for all day wear to combat against, sweat, tears and rain!
Now I like this and it works well around my eyes, I don't have 'crow's feet' but I do have a few fine lines under my eyes as my skin is not as firm in this area as it used to be after all I'm 55. I do like the MAC one better for frown lines and that's only because this one by ELF is more suited to dry skin and my skin is still oily and is probably why my skin as stood up to the ravages of time. Now if ELF was to do one for us oily skin customers I would be first in the que! However it's a good product none the less.
Wrinkle Refiner
Instantly smooth, soften and virtually fill in laugh lines, crow’s feet and wrinkles for a flawless finish. Key ingredients draw in moisture to smooth and plump delicate skin for a rejuvenated and youthful look. The rich blend of Wheat Protein, Horse Chestnut, Caffeine, Edelweiss, Chamomile, Shea, Mango and Vitamins A & E retexturise skin and can help prevent future damage and premature ageing.
Now all of these products are inexpensive, so you can easily afford these and more and ELF is available in quite a few countries now by clicking the flag of the appropriate country at the top of their home page.
