You look great here, Sarah. You always do, but something is extra pretty here.

[purplerain]

I used the mini luminous putty primer as a subtle highlighter, good to get use of it! And I feel like that the power grip primer does actually make a difference in terms of lasting power.

[gigik]

The matte light blue shadow stick is really pretty! I love a matte inner corner highlight & it's perfect for that and stays until I take it off. The first one I tried was from the mint collection & it just doesn't show up very good on me, but makes a decent base for shimmers. I have the brown too, & definitely my most worn too. I wanna try the halo glow, but I still have plenty of the CT mini, so I'm not in any hurry.
Always enjoy hearing your thoughts.
Happy Sunday, Sarah and anyone reading this.

I just bought the pore filling primer yesterday so I am glad you like it!

A personal love of mine is the clear brow/mascara. It's $3 and I use both sides in my brows. To me they are the same as the $22 clear gel from ABH.

I love the face duo! I have spiced apple. The blush is a great toasty warm for my fair skin and the highlighter is deep, so its the perfect 1 and done shadow. A whole face for $3! Love it

[fannisland]

Your hair looks so amazing recently! Can you share your routine please? 😮❤

[thebeauty_minimalist]

You look so gorgeous today 💜 I love elf skincare too!

Those bite-size blushes are perfect for trying out new blush shades. For a few dollars you can see if a shade you would normally not buy, would suit your skintone. Even if you find out the shade doesn't work for you, it's still useful to know that.
I didn't like the bite size eyeshadow at all. Maybe my expectations were too high because of all the hype. Everybody kept saying they were as good as a high end eyeshadow, and like you, I don't agree. Decluttered mine quite fast.

I use the elf small stipple brush for all my cream/liquid blushers, bronzers, and highlighters. It fits perfectly in the little pots that the elf putty blushers and bronzers come in.

[juliapasch]

Thank you very much for your review! It‘s always very helpful. My favourite Mascara from Elf? The Lash it loud🤷‍♀️😂. I got it in a sample size and loved it so much that I am going to buy the full size.

[Yvette.T]

I really want to try a couple of the hydrating lip core glosses 💋

[Samtara]

The camo Concealer and the lip glosses are definitely my favourites from this brand

[jillianlumpkin]

I have the Glossy Lip Stain in the shade Power Mauve and the lip stain actually lasted so long on my lips that I could not remove it off my lips even with a makeup remover wipe.

[gasparinha]

I liked the Ride or Die balm in Tough Cookie, but the tube needs to be warm or it's too thick. I bought mine in the winter, and it just wouldn't come out! It was fine in the summer, though. (I do like a thick, non-sticky balm.) I'm going to try it in grapefruit next, for a more-sheer option.

[CurliesCuriosites]

I don't wear a ton of highlight I wish the bite size cheek products were a bronzer and blush. Also would love your opinion on the bite size brow

[morgantiedemann]

I have the glossy lip stain in basic beige and berry queen, and they are amazing in those shades, and the stain really does last!

[tovahbauer]

The elf lip plumping gloss in Mocha Twist, is a shade that I immediately replace when I use it up.

[tammiemartinez]

One thing people need to keep in mind when looking at those bite size palettes is the colors themselves. I have 4 but can only use 2 because the other 2 don't show up on my skin tone. I have the one you're wearing and Rosewater. Those are the 2 that don't show up. I didn't have any issues with Rosewater crumbling, etc it's just that the shades are too light. My favorite is Truffles. I use it all the time as a stand alone or to mix with other palettes. As for the brow lift. My first use was horrifying, lol. I followed their instructions but now I know not to. Now I dip a clean finger in the pot, rub the product together with another finger, apply then use the spoolie. They look really good but like you said. Your hairs will drop. If I use the lift with the brow wow somehow my hairs don't budge. I don't mind adding an extra product because I already have it. But I did just grab a tube of the Got2Be gel last month. I'm gonna test that out. I have a lot of brow hairs so I just need something that'll keep them tamed and in place. If you do give that brow lift another go just make sure to clean your brows with a little bit of micellar water on a q tip. My eye brows hairs are black and I didn't experience the white flakes. Yes it's an extra step to do but it does make a difference. Great video. You showed a lot of products I didn't even know they had. Thanks... 👍

[kathleendudek]

I SO agree with you on the putty primers and the $6.00 foundation! Great info on the concealers! I won't bother trying them.

[maetodecember]

I have the Jalapeño and Açai You from the Bite Size collection and I really love them as travel-friendly colorful shadows! The Jalapeño is the superior one in terms of quality but the Açai You has such beautiful colors that I'm willing to put the extra work in for.
