ELF Liquid Lipstick Swatches and Review!


 
Hey Guys!
 
 
So the other day I got an exciting delivery, which was my ELF Liquid lipstick collection!
Personally I love ELF's products as i already have the contour kit which has become a staple in my makeup collection, and at such a good price I thought I would do a quick test of their Liquid lipstick collection!
 
The collection consists of 7 different shades ranging from nudes to darker, more berry colours. ELF describes the product as intensive hydrating, with a long lasting colour.
 
Here are the lipsticks!
 
 
 
 
 
 
As you can see the colour range isn't that different, with most of them being more neutral shades, so this collection would be perfect for someone who prefers a more neutral look on their lips.


 
So Baby Lips didn't really impress me, I felt that the shade was very watered down, but the gloss finish that it creates looks incredible, and the case is the same for all of the colours.


 
Pink Lemonade was one of my favourites as it had the perfect balance between a neutral shade and a pink, I think that this would look amazing with a good lip liner around it, perfect for any skin tone as well!




 
Cherry Tart was probably my number one shade of them all, I was pleasantly surprised by the pigment in it compared to the price, so this is one that I will be wearing more often than the others.




 
Ruby Slipper was a shade that you are either gonna love or hate. The extra gloss finish with this colour looks amazing but can also look very wet. But still a lovely shade for all you girls who love a good pink!




Raspberry was also one that I loved again, due to the pigment. My only complaint about this shade is that it is not very long wearing as I was constantly re-applying whilst wearing it.
 
 
Strawberry was in my mind the worst one of them all, it wasn't very long wearing at all and I didn't find it very wearable, perhaps it would look good with a neutral looking face for a school look or something but for a night out this would be a no-no.





 
Nude Pink didn't sit well on my lips, on my full face it didn't look quite right and I think this is due to the fact that I have a warm toned face with brown hair, so this maybe would look much better on lighter skin tones wit blonde hair.
 

 
As you can see from this picture, you do not get lots of product in the lipstick. This is probably down to the fact that it is so cheap and that they believe that you do not need lots of product for it to look good.
 
Overall I would say that what you pay is what you get with these lipsticks, some shades you'll love, some shades you'll hate, and I really hope that ELF bring out more colours in the range like some more reds and berry tones.
 
That's all for today!
