OMG ELF moment; new products

Just when i thought i have all the products from ELF, they keep coming out with new stuff. WHY!! WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME PLACE ANOTHER ORDER? Its going to be like my 15th order.

These palettes remind me of the Make Up forever camouflage concealer palettes, don't they? I wonder if these concealers are any different from their All over cover sticks eh?

OMG moment

OGMOGMOGMOMOGOGMOG I just saw my daily ELF newsletter and am SOOO EXCITED!! ELF Studio tinted moisturizer! When this comes out, I'm totally going to buy every shade >=D. I am in need of a good foundation/ tinted moisturizer.

Yes I know, I'm a big dork.

ELF studio complexion perfection

Yes...the complexion perfection. This has been quite hyped up on Youtube too. I bought this a while back and I had to say my first impression wasn't very good.
ELF Company Claim: "Create a balanced and radiant complexion that is beautiful and healthy. The lightweight formula evens out the skin tone and absorbs excess oil. The sheer formula brightens, mattes and neutralizes the skin. The colors are meant to be blended together as the Blue neutralizes orange, the Green neutralizes red, the Pink neutralizes grey and the Yellow brightens and neutralizes red. "

-balanced complexion? Hmm... well see

-lightweight? so so

-absorbs excess oil? Yes

-brightens, mattes, neutralizes: Yes

Just like elf's claim, you can use these separately or swirl them together. On the color wheel, green is the opposite of red, which means it counter acts redness. But i don't think there is ever orange on my skin...unless you spray tan too much xD. I use the yellow and pink together to counter act purple/ under eye circles.

One of the bad thing is that the powder makes my face a little too white, so unlike the Make Up forever HD powder, it doesn't leave a translucent finish. But don't worry, it doesn't look yellow/green/blue/pink after applied.

The powder itself is nice and silky; pressed quite well too. As for balancing redness, I have quite a bit of redness around my cheeks and my nose. After I used this powder, it didn't balance the redness. I was quite disappointed but it did work for small pimples. So I guess, it does counter act redness, but not the skin deep kind XD...if that made any sense.

Cool Bronzer- The ideal selection of matte colors to achieve a natural looking tan. Ideal for winter or year-round."

Cool Bronzer

The lid of the bronzer & the name

Just like the other bronzers and the blush/bronzer, the packaging is similar to NARS but without the rubberized feel. Each product are only $3, but when studio coupons come around then it would only be $1.50. Basically how these bronzers work is there are four different colors, and you can either use it seperately or swirl it together. The colors and finishes of the cool bronzer is matte. The product itself is somewhat chalky but to a minimum. Beacause this is very pigmented, you really have to use a light hand (i'm not kidding). The first time i used it, I took too much and it look like dirty on my face. So you should use a skunk brush just in case.

White- use as a highlight for cheekbones and...well highlights

Brown- Bronzer? xD

Dusty rose color- a really nice rose color; can be used as a blushSwatches in flash.

In natural light.

Warm Bronzer

Unlike the cool bronzer, the warm bronzer can be used with a light or heavy hand and it wouldn't matter as much. It gives you a nice "healthy glow" and can be used as a blush or bronzer. Just like the other one, this can be a little, tiny bit dusty so dab and don't swirl too hard.

Unlike the cool bronzer, the warm bronzer has a shimmer/ frosty finish. This one consists of a golden color, peach/pink color, bronze color and a light yellowish golden color. When i swatched each of the colors,immediately I noticed its less of a bronzer when you use just one and better to use as eyeshadows.
