Elf Eyeshadow Palette Review


Recently, I bought a few things from ELF Cosmetics after hearing great things about them. What attracted me to their brand was the price, their products are ridiculously cheap; and being the (kind of) make-up snob that I am, I wouldn't have attempted to go near them unless there were a good few recommendations.

Their brushes, especially, are fantastic value for money; and love their lip balm; but doubt I will ever buy their lipsticks again as their completely different colours to the swatches. I hadn't delved into their eyeshadows until I saw a video saying what great value they were for money and great quality.



What I Think:

So I decided to buy the 32 eyeshadow collection for a mere £9/10euro..For such a low price, the packaging is great; sleek and decorated for the Christmas season. Once I had swatched a few colours, I realised how brilliant it was; most of them are well pigmented and great colours. There's also a great selection with browns, greys and creams for us neutral addicts; and vivid colours for those who love to be bright. It's perfect for people just starting to use make-up and those already slightly obsessed!

Not only that, but the palette is thin and small enough to be brought on holidays, and I never thought I'd say it, but you wouldn't need to bring other shadows with you. It also has a mirror for on-the-go applications. With 32 beautiful shades in nice packaging, you can't really go wrong!

A few of the shades I'm loving in no particular order. Go, buy it!
