e.l.f Regular line Duo eyeshadow cream Review


Duo Eye Shadow Cream


Express yourse.l.f. with the easy to blend, crease resistant, creamy duo eye shadow colors. Each gorgeous shade can be worn alone or together for a dramatic effect. The soft-blending formula can also be layered under powder eye shadow to set the color in and keep it lasting vibrant all day. by e.l.f 




I purchased these from eyelipsface.co.uk to have a look click here.  They are retailing at £1.50/$1/€1.70 each and there are 9 available shades.  I hear nothing but good reviews about these so of course i HAD to try them out for myself :) :).  Even tho i am hugely sceptic when it comes to cream eyeshadows as they are none to crease after an hour of wear or they are just too messy to apply or if you suffer really oily eyelids it seems hard to keep the cream eyeshadow staying put but i went against my doubts and went ahead an purchased them........


From the top left i got shades " Butter Pecan, Coffee & Cream, Sugar cookie, Berry Mix & Mocha Swirl" 
I also realised i missed one while taking the photos forgive me but here it is:
"Eggplant"
I got 3 addition shades in "Blueberry,  Black Licorice & Olive"


Butter Pecan:  These duos come in a lighter and darker shade the lighter shade is a peachy shade and the brown is a coppery brown they look darker in the pot but apply lighter in shade  they both have a goldy undertone , i love these shades 


Coffee & Cream:  I love the name on this its perfect for the eye-shadow,  the lighter shade is a perfect highlighter but i dont see myself wearing this during the day as there is a large amount of glitter in it but perfect for a night out  plus its very light i had to do a couple of swatches of this just to get it up for a photo,  the darker shade is a nice brown color.. Good for a smokey eye base for a dark color.


Sugar Cookie:  The light shade is a pale gold perfect for a base for gold glitter and eyeshadow, the darker shade is a pale pink fab shade goes will with a pinky brown look or on its own.


Berry Mix:  The lighter shade is a sheer lilac great for a base i wouldnt wear it on its own,  the darker shade is dark purple but sometimes looks plum in the sunlight..... even tho i love purples i wouldnt have this on on the top of my list......


Mocha Swirl:  The lighter shade on this  is fab its a pinkish-lilac i love this shade but does have alot of shimmer when it wears off a bit :) :) the darker shade is a browny shade and makes a good crease colour with normal eye-shadow.  both of these together doesnt work at all .........


Eggplant: The lighter shade is a grayish, dark green and the darker shade is a metallic purple.  Both with gold undertones.  This is one of the most pigmented duo....i love these shades :) :) this one i would recommend 


Blueberry:    has a light blue but appears to be more silver in photos and a dark navy blue/indigo with silver sparkles.  I actually like these as normally blues are not for me as i have hazel eyes but these shades i can work with they are very highly pigmented lovely on the eye together :) 


Black Licorice:  I love this one i use this with my e.l.f Brightening eye color quad in "Drama"  these really work well together.....Smokey eye eat your heart out what more do you need anyway......The Darker tone is a black shade with silver sparkle going through it it also has a wee bit of a blue tone in it.....the lighter side is a grey/silver i found it very sparkly but wearable :) 


Olive:  When i first got this i looked at the two shades and thought hmmmmmm i dunno bout this one........but believe me if you have hazel eyes this really makes your eyes pop....i mean now i have big hazel eyes and with this on and a little black liner wowzer :) :) ok the brown shade looks a bit on the icky side on the swatches but with its gold sparkle it looks well on the eye the green is more of a lime green it too has golden undertone to it in my opinion i like it but it wont be for everyone :) 
 " Butter Pecan, Coffee & Cream, Sugar cookie, Berry Mix & Mocha Swirl"  in natural light 
 " Butter Pecan, Coffee & Cream, Sugar cookie, Berry Mix & Mocha Swirl"  in sunlight 

"Eggplant" in natural light 
"Eggplant" in sunlight

"Blueberry, Black Licorice & olive swatches in Daylight 

"Blueberry, Black Licorice & Olive swatches in Sunlight 


My overall opinion:  These babies are a really good collection to have....They can make a really good look even using one shade from one duo and a 2nd shade from another duo.....You can get a smokey eye or just a normal everyday look......i apply these with my finger as some of the need a little heat to soften them if you have them stored in a cool place but if you have them stored in a warm place be cautious they can go very soft and you could get way too much on your finger......they are super creamy and a little goes a long way i wouldnt advise to use a whole lot as they will crease if your overload.....i mainly use these as a base for my eyeshadow and they are excellent for intensifying your normal eyeshadows......
I do find if you wear these on their own they will crease so i would advise to use a good primer and you will find they will last a good 6-8 hours depending on how oily your lids are......I have purchased higher brand cream shadows before and e.l.f has topped some of them.  


so for the price they are why dont you try one see what you think :) :)


ok chics thats me done hope this was helpful and please leave a comment let me knoe if you have any and what you think of them 


until next time 
take care 
lots of Irish kisses

e.l.f Matte Lip Color review

This convenient jumbo sized lip pencil creates exact color application with twist up ease so you never have to sharpen. The pigment rich color glides on effortlessly and easily to provide long lasting matte color. The enriched Vitamin A, C & E formula moisturizes and hydrates lips for beautiful healthy looking lips. by e.l.f 


As seen on Seventeen magazine these unfortunately are only available on the US site but are said to be coming to the UK site soon :) 
on the US site they cost $3 so hopefully when they reach the UK site that means they should cost £3.50/€4 


There are 4 available shades in these & i have 3/4 my 4th one i own is the one up for grabs in my competition :) :) so i cant review it as i have not tried it :) i will hopefully conclude my collection soon by getting the last remaining one :) 


e.l.f Matte Lip Color in "Natural, Praline & Coral" 
The Fact that im officially an e.l.f-a-holic when i seen these i just had to get them and where theres a will theres a way in my eyes :) ;).  Curiosity just got the better of me honestly i have a problem BUT ITS A GOOD PROBLEM PEOPLE IF I DIDNT GET THEM THEN I JUST COULDNT TELL YOU ABOUT THEM COULD I HAHA 
anyway back to the review :).

As i said before there are 4 available shades and i have 3 of thoses shades which are: 

+

Praline:   This is kind of a pinky beige nude at first it looked more burgundy its depending how much or how little you put on your lips and how dark or light your own natural lip colour is.  This is perfect for people who are light/medium skin tone.....this is a great shade to wear out in the town.....its highly pigmented i love it.

Coral:  This one is a coral nude can give an orangey pay off again depending on your own natural lip colour ,  this one would be my least favourite i dont think the shade suit me but of course everyone is different still lovely i will use it but maybe lightly with some gloss over it :)


Natural:  This shade is a creamy pinky nude......this is my favourite i love this with a clear or slightly pink gloss over it and for some reason it makes my lips look fuller Angelina Jolie eat your heart out baby :) 


As you can see they come in a lip liner form only alot thicker than a lip liner when you twist them you get a goo amount of product,  what i would like to see is these in a lipstick form.   Your getting 1.8 grams in these half the size of a lipstick but for the price im not complaining :) they are fun and original :)  plus while i was playing around with them i found a hidden item :) which was exciting as i didnt realise they had this and here it is:


A hidden sharpener on the top now how cool is that 
So whats my over all opinion on these.... Well i love them because they are affordable.  Highly highly pigmented a little goes along way.  So So easy to apply super creamy and is not one bit hard on your lips.   Like i cant get over how soft these are on my lips.  The colour doesn't dry out your lips even tho they are matte but if you are a gloss person a little gloss over it is no harm and looks really well over them.   Its enriched with vitamin A, C & E so its nice to know they are good for your lips ....There is no scent whatsoever :) i love that....  
So i bet your wondering what the cons are well i dont really have any any but if i had to pick out some maybe the fact there is only 4 shades available thats about it girls. :) 

"Praline"

"Coral"

"Natural"


So thats it ladies thats my review on these fab Matte Lip Colors from e.l.f.  in all they will be worth buying when they come to the UK site but they are available on the US site so anyone who is able to buy them i recommend them with a shadow of doubt.... i hope you enjoyed my review and as i said before i have 3/4 shades the missing shade is "Tea Rose" which i gave up for my Big Giveaway a while back is said to be a big hit too im hoping to order this now as they are on sale on eyelipsface.co.uk for only £1 just for a limited time so get ordering now girls. 


can i also add i bought these out of my own pocket and as i always say this is my own opinion but i hope it has shed so light into the product and maybe when they are available for you to buy you will be more educated in what your buying.


until next time

lots of Irish kisses your way

e.l.f Conditioning Lip Balm Review



With the e.l.f. Conditioning Lip Balm, lips get treated to a sheer splash of color that’s super smooth, velvety soft and non-sticky. Not only are these sheer, natural shades beautiful, they’re also beneficial, with natural ingredients that condition dry, chapped lips including Vitamins A & E. SPF 15 to protect delicate lips against harmful sun damage. By e.l.f 

There are 6 different shades of these balms( i have 5) they are retailing at £3.95/$3.50 each and you can purchase them off 


"Blissful Berry, Bombshell Brown, Peaceful Pink, Mellow Melon and Nice & Natural "
Blissful Berry;  This is a warm rosy berry shade.  The shade is sheer but gives a great colour payoff,  I find it quite pigmented but controllable meaning if your want it darker just keep layering it......I find it compliments my lips really well. 

Bombshell Brown:  This shade is a brownish nude with micro shimmer even though its not noticeable on the lips.....this is one of my favourites..... I love the way it brightens up my lips leaving them noticeable moisturised

Peaceful Pink:  This is a baby pink shade not as sheer as the first two,  this one is very pigmented and wouldn't really be one of my favourites but I still like it...... 

Mellow Melon:  This shade looks coral peachy in the pot but I find it looks more pink on my lips , its semi sheer still looks lovely on the lips and is another one of my favourites :) 

Nice & Nude:  This one is top on my list :) by far the nicest shade in my opinion........This balm is glossy and is a light nude...but doesn't make your lips love like corpse lips......this is so natural and yet so fulfilling to apply to my lips I find myself reaching for this one the most its hard to find a nude lippie that will compliment your lips but not any more :) :) thanks to e.l.f 

"Blissful Berry, Bombshell Brown, Peaceful Pink, Mellow Melon and Nice & Natural "

Your get 7.5 g from each pot with is unbelievably big for the price you are paying.......when I seen these I could not wait to get my hands on them....I bought 1 first just to see if I liked them and ass you can see i was sold the minute i tried it.......the pot fills the palm of my hand and is handy in the handbag "Well you wont be afraid you will lose it :)" one of these alone will last you like forever :) I'm a lip balm/gloss gal so I will definitely have no chance of leaving one of these aside for too long......one thing I like is my lips feeling moisturised and i have to say these babies do their job right and not only that they give your lips a wake up call!!!!!!

The balms smell to me like coconut so if you don't mind that your flying :) :)  but be warned you will definitely need a compact mirror with you when applying these as they are well pigmented and you don't want to go round looking like a 2 year old applied the balm on you lol :)  I have found that these will last from about 2- 4 hours depending on drinking eating etc.  these glosses are not one bit sticky and you can apply lightly or heavy whatever way you decided they are still going to give a good colour payoff....

 

As i said above i have 5/6 I'm missing the last one on the list with is "Romantic rouge" in which I did have but it has mysteriously disappeared hhhmmmmmm I wonder where :) :) any ways I will purchase it again and post up swatches of it soon........so do I think you should purchase one or more of these HELL YE you would spend alot more money on a lip balm stick and only get 1/4 of what you are getting in these plus these conditioning lip balms has SPF15 in them now what more would you be looking for :) 

So that's it ladies hope you enjoyed my review if you did spread the word :) :) 
I'm hoping my reviews and pictures help you in your decisions on either you would like to try  or not 

until next time 
lots of Irish kisses 
Love Nina xoxoxoxox

e.l.f Mineral Gloss Review

The soft and silky formula glides onto lips to create a luscious shine without feeling sticky or tacky. The sheer tint of color is the perfect hue to give you a beautiful and natural glossy look. Infused with key vitamins A & E to protect and moisturize your lips. All our mineral makeup is 100% mineral based with no parabens, no preservatives and no chemical dyes. by e.l.f


e.l.f  Mineral Lip Gloss in "Trendsetter, Pagent Princess, Bare & Au Natural" 
I got these on e.l.f site click here  for £3.00 each......the ingredients include

Mineral Oil, Coconut (Cocos Nucifera) Oil, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Mica, Silica, Tocopherol Acetate(VE), Retinol(VA), Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499), Manganese Violet (CI 77742), Mica (CI 77019). 
Mineral Oil moisturizes and conditions the skin. Coconut Oil is a natural antioxidant and promotes younger looking skin. Castor Oil helps maintain healthy and soft skin.Silica helps to improve skins elasticity and slow down the aging process.Tocopheryl Acetate is a powerful vitamin E antioxidant, possessing the ability to increase the moisturization as well as help protect skin against ultraviolet damage.Retinol
 is a Vitamin A derivative that helps to reverse signs of aging.


Starting from the left "Trendsetter, Pagent princess, Bare & Au Natural" 
Trendsetter:  This would be one of my favourite shades..... is a nude-brown shade with a slight shimmer.   Trendsetter is a very versatile colour--you can wear it daily and for going out, as well. It looks just as good worn alone as over a lipstick.  its not highly pigmented when applied on the lips but does give your lips a nice pick me up :) 

Pagent Princess:   its is a very light, baby pink with blue undertones......Its really pretty on the lips this shade would suit those with fair skin types with cool undertones.  I love it tho :) this too has shimmer in it but not over powering 

Bare:  This shade looks darker in the tube than when applied its a very sheer nude shade......it give you the MLBB look to be honest :) this one has no shimmer which is perfect for everyday wear 

Au Natural:  This shade is a light beige colour with kind of goldy undertone...... I like this shade its shimmery and brightens up your lips also........i was expecting it to be more natural hense the name but its wearable :)

The mineral glosses swatched on my lips click on image for a closer look

 It's a clear tube with a matte black cap with a doe foot applicator which i love in a lipgloss as it leaves applying the gloss much easier. You get 6,5 grams of product.   In 2 of these glosses you have to dip the applicator a few times before you get enough to do your lips.....these glosses put me in remind of the super shine lip glosses from e.l.f texture wise , they are not overly thick but thick enough to last 2 to 3 hours on your lips....Also there is no scent or flavour off them which is good for people who hate sweet or cosmetic scented glosses........they leave your lips feeling moisturised and wear away perfectly not like some glosses you find you have cakey whitish lumpy lines after about an hour of wear (i hate that).

To be honest im happy with the 4 i have and it wouldnt be on my wishlist to get the rest straight away  Dont get me wrong i love these glosses and i thing they are great for the value and the fact that they are beneficial for your lips but for all of you out there the dont like sweet stickyish glosses ......e.l.f mineral glosses are the perfect gloss for you :)  

Thanks for dropping by to read my review i hope this was helpful to you all let me know what you think.  can i just add these glosses were bought out of my own pocket (As usual) and im simply giving you my own opinion after all everyone is different, But my aim is to try and shed a light on products show and write as much as possible about them so that you then can make your own mind up on either you like or dont like what you see, it saves time and money on your side :) :) 

anyways untils next time girls
lots of Irish kisses your way 
cay soon 
nina :)

e.l.f Eyeliner & Shadow stick review

Achieve color intensity for your eyes with twist-up ease (no sharpening required)! Glide on the dark soft gel “liner” to create dramatic definition to the eyes. The light-reflecting pigments help line the eye subtly but intensely for a fuller more enhanced effect. Use the smooth glide “shadow” stick for soft highlighting color on the eyes to complement the liner for a polished and finished look. by e.l.f


Available at 
http://www.eyeslipsface.co.uk/product~prodID~117.htm
http://www.eyeslipsface.com/studio/eyes/eyeliner/eyeliner_and_shadow_stick
In Shades "Purple/Plum, "Basic/Brown", "Green/Moss", "Pearl/Glow", "Blue/Midnight" & "Smoke/Black

Eyeliner and Eye Shadow in one Sounds like a great idea doesn’t it? I had mixed feelings about this one 2 in 1 product.  After all Cream shadows especially affordable ones crease nearly after an hour but I bought these shadow sticks off the uk site @ £1 each as there was 50% off so i got all 6 colours.  They normally retail @ £3.50/$3(UK site)/(US site) each.  Even tho i was sceptic i still couldnt help been excited about getting them to try them out and "play with them" .  Ok each of them have a shadow stick on one end and a gel liner stick on the other.  The liner is supposed to compliment the shadow so lets see if they do :) 


Starting from the top:  Smoke/black,  Blue/midnight, Glow/pearl,  Green/moss,  Basic/brown & Purple/plum
Smoke/Black:  Ok this is definately the one i wanted to get straight away as everyone goes for the dark smokey eye and i though great this would be perfect....also i remember one of the girls out of pixiwoo use this for a look on her video tutorials .......Smoke is a smooth ashy gray colour with silver shimmer Black is a very dark black liner.  They are both very creamy and very easy to apply but i wouldnt depend on just the cream shadow for the dark smokey eye if you are aiming for that id have a dark shadow ready to go over the Smoke shadow its great as a base but not as a dependant on giving you that darkness your looking for but if your were not going for the DARK DARK look this is great on its own........


Blue/Midnight:  This is a fab shadow stick...... i mean wow the pigmentation from both sides is brilliant you could really wear this on its own and you would have a fab look on you the Blue(shadow) side gives off a metallic finish which is incredible and it has tints of silvery shimmer in it the same goes for midnight(liner) side it too has silver shimmer to it i love this shade :) 


Glow/Pearl:  Ok to start off with both shadow and liner there isnt much difference between the shades..but...The Pearl eyeshadow colour has tiny specks of shimmer and the Glow eyeliner is a nice icy white nicely pigmented, but when blended if you blend too much it can blend away to just a sheen, so I would probably just used this as a highlighter as its perfect for that.I used this product as a lower lid liner-to brighten and whiten and widen my eyes.  


Green/Moss:  This one is probably my least favourite....i was actually a little disappointed as it looks better swatched on my hand than it does on my hands....the Green (shadow) is lighter than expected when applied on and the Moss(liner) is darker they both have gold shimmer in it....to me they dont go well together...i prefer the liner in this because its alot more pigmented than the shadow but thats just my opinion 


Basic/Brown:  The basic is really more gold. Great for a highlight above the liner on the lid or in the crease. Gives a festive gold sparkle.  I have worn it as a base and it works well...... The Brown is a super shade i love it this shadow stick gives the perfect neutral look but with a hint of gold sparkle....this is definitely  worth buying 


Purple Plum:   This one in particular i was looking forward to getting as purple shades are my favourite..... the Purple(shadow) is more of a taupe-brown-purple its really pretty on the eyes......The Plum is definately a deep purple i love it all i can say i love it :) :) :) :)

 Smoke/black,  Blue/midnight, Glow/pearl,  Green/moss,  Basic/brown & Purple/plum  taken with Flash ***Please click on the picture for a closer look*** 
My Overall Opinion

  • I think for the value of these babies you are getting alot more.....They are extremely handy to bring travelling with you.  The colours are great and very versatile!  Product was easy to blend apart from Green/moss and basic/brown  i found them harsh on my lid.   No sharpening needed as the stick is twistable! :) 
  •  I love the liners of every 1 of them they are super pigmented and really creamy and soooooo easy to apply (i tell you girls if you are only learning to apply your liner for different looks on the upper lash e.g Cat eye or flick etc.) using these liners is great to get it right and so easy to use as the tip is slim.  But dont use these on your water line they do not last and you end us with gloop(nicest way i could put it) in corners of your eyes.  They are good under the lash line 
  • The shadows on these are creamy but i always always use a good primer first if i didnt they would crease on my lid within an hour but with a primer they last all day apart from the green/moss......
  • They are a brilliant buy and one good tip i have for you is.......before using these shadow sticks put it in your pocket for about ten mins before using them and you will be amazed  they apply even more creamier than if they were cold go on try it :) :)  
  • As for "The liners complimenting the shadows" all all but 2 is true to that statement the Green/Moss & Glow/pearl the liners do not compliment the shadows on these but you can always work with that simply use a shadow to go over them and then use the the liners to compliment them.... 


Ok my fabulous girlies thats me finished gabbing i could go on and on but i think you all get the idea hahaha thats just typical of us Irish lassies we would talk for Ireland if we had the chance.....I hope you found my review interesting and helpful and hopefully your too will experiment with these if you do let me know what you think :) :) 


Until next time take care 
& keep an eye out for more e.l.f products

p.s can i just state i have purchased these products out of my own money(i got the statements  in the door recently to prove it (dont you just love banks reminding you constantly of how much you have spent they really like spoiling the buzz,  not with me tho i alway get the good deals hehehehehehehehhehehehehehe) anyhuuuuuuuu i am simply doing this for fun and the love of make-up, bargains etc. and also the love of researching and expanding my knowledge ....so these reviews are 100% my own opinion and i just tell it how it is.... :0)

e.l.f Super Glossy Lip shine SPF15 review **UPDATED**

This Super Glossy SPF 15 formula fights environmental damage while leaving your lips with a healthy glossy glow. The delicious flavor and sweet scent will leave you licking your lips in delight! The perfect on the go tube that is mess proof for anywhere and anytime!
'Angel' # 2801 is our only shade that doesn't contain SPF15 but is packed with gorgeous glittery bits instead. by e.l.f

Available at : 

*** UPDATE*** I have purchase two new shades of these fabulous Glosses that have come into the US Site and not available on the UK site yet  scroll down to view them and what i think  :) :) 
There are 10 available shades @ £1.50/$1 each 
The remaining 4 shades my news additions :) "Angel, Malt shake, Watermelon & Honey do"   

****NEW editions to the US site "Pink Pop & Party Peach"

What you Get
The Super Glossy Lip Shine comes packaged in a squeezy tube with a plastic, slant-tip applicator which I love.  It is slightly small but the tube is full to the top which is good and at £1.50 you cant complain and not only that because of the size of them they are quite handy in you handbag..... Glossy Lip Shine color range is on the smallish side but they do offer sheers, more opaque shades, cremes, shimmers, and frosts.  The best thing about this gloss is it has sun protection in it which is super (hence the name)..  


The Shades :) 
Iced Latte:   Is definately a deceiving shade.. when i first got this i thought "wow thats darker than i thought" but actually when applied and blended out on your lips its a fantastic shade a perfect brown nude with some gold shimmer thats not OTT.....

Mauve Luxe:  i would call this shade a cherryish with a tint of brown and some goldy shimmer going through it.  It gives a reddish pay off on your lips but a wearable red it looks so pretty in the sunlight your lips would definately get noticed.....

Candlelight:  is a shimmery champagne, a peachy nude....i love this shade so much its light but yet noticable it really brightens up your lips and looks great if you were wearing smoky eye look :) :) 

Goddess:   This will be definately in my handbag all the time :)  Goddess is a peachy/nude shade with a pink shimmer. Very neutral. This is one of my favs.  This will suit everyone and is a perfect shade for the summer :) 

Juiced Berry:  This gloss is different from the rest its a transparant red/orange gloss.  It does put a little tint on your lips but best thing about it is it makes my lips look a little more plump.....

Pink Kiss:  The colour is a light soft pink with a beautiful frosty sheen to it...... I really like this colour but its not much different to Candlelight.....only difference is it doesnt have that peachy shine in it.......this is super perfect for all skin tones to be honest as again it just gives your lips the perfect MLBB (My lips but better) colour........love it 
Angel:  Is a clear gloss with shimmer in it....now this one got me really excited(i know i need to get out more but we are talking good glosses here people) when i swatched it on my hand it had purpley/blue glitter fleks and very eye catching in sunlight......its not too much on you lips and gives your fav lippie a bit of an umph i love it :) Oh and As Stated By e.l.f This is the only gloss that doesnt have SPF in it but i still love it :)


Malt Shake:    When i was picking this at first i thought the shade wasnt too exciting but of course i gave it the benefit of the doubt (you cant judge a book by its cover right?)......a neutral brownish pink with no shimmer whatsoever.......on the lips it looks amazing the perfect MLBB (my lips but better) colour....... adds a boost of warm shine to my lips...


Honey Do:   A cute translucent pinkish coral......This is a perfect everyday gloss....it compliments my lips so much i love it it has some shimmer to it so it will waken those fab lips of yours.  This is definitely suitable for all skin tones 


Watermelon:   I love this shade.......its cherry-red shade perfect for summery look with a bit of shimmer.....The shade does remind me of a watermelon and its more sheer than i expected :)   i highly recommend this one :) :) 

**New Pink Pop:  This is a fantastic Baby pink shade with gold shimmer not only does it look great on the lips but also somehow makes your lips look plumper.....It also look incredible when the sunshine hits your lips :)


**New Party Peach:  For people who love the peachy look on your lips this is perfect, this is pure peachy in colour with gold shimmer now i have to admit its not very pigmented as or noticeable on the lips like pink pop but over your favourite peachy lippie this gloss make your lips stand out :)

***New Editions from the US e.l.f***
My Overall Opinion 

ok applying these Glosses are great so easy and if your in a hurry and dont have a mirror its great you wont make a mess because of the slanted tip.....if your a sweet person like me you will love the delicious sweet scent pay off on these i love it mmmmmmmmm its not an over powering scent.....these glosses are thick which mean you know they are going to last for a while on your lips.  They are only a little sticky but nothing you cant handle at least you know the gloss is still on your lip RIGHT!!! :) these glosses are adorable and i love them in FACT i have now got all the shades available hehehehehehehehe a girl can never have enough glosses :) :)  so is it worth buying these glosses????? YES again you will have the most kissable lips with them (just look at mine hahahahahahaha) Try them out see what you think let me know :)

ok my lovely cailins(girls in irish) thats my opinion on these glosses and again can i mention i bought these out of my own pocket and this review is my utmost honest opinion and that is the reason for my blog so i can tell you whats good and whats not so that you dont waste good money on items that end up been disappointing
