ELF Haul

i dont know why i keep getting things from this website, maybe because its dirt cheap. Be careful with your selection or you'll just end up buying crap.
Some things i bought that were good and NOT so good.

I tried out their new line, the studio line, and I got the:
Eyebrow lifter and filler - medium
The eyebrow color is very off and the creaminess its horrible for shading eye brows. The lift part of the pencil is creamy as well, so its hard to use this pencil for brow. And the pencil is very thick so hard to draw a precise line.

Conceal pencil and brush - light
I would say this is a pretty good concealer, creamy the color was right for my skin tone, but i havent tested out the last power on it. I use it under my eye and the convenience of the brush on the other side, which is very soft, make the blending and application for under eye coverage easier.

blush and bronzer compact
This kinda reminded me of the NARS duo, the blush is very nice, the bronzer is a bit powdery and without careful application you can look like u have dirt all over your face! haha that was what happened when i first put it on, but blend it out and it looks like a nice sunkissed look. The compact is fairly big as well, so that was nice.
eyebrow treat and tame - medium
the tame side is a spoolie while the treat side is like a lip brush, im not sure why i got this? I got medium and my goodness, when i put the tame side on my brows, which is the colored side, i looked like a clown =( the color looked horrible!! the treat side is suppose to help brow growth, which i do need in some areas of my brow, i hope that works.
waterproof eyeliner pen - midnight, black, plum
lastly, i got these eyeliner pens, the felt tip is VERY stiff, so it might hurt to apply, its very pointy for precise application, but i havent tested out the waterproof-ness of the eyeliner. not sure what to think of this yet.
