Review: ELF Essential Liquid Eyeliners

If you watch my YouTube videos, you have probably deduced that I am an ELF fanatic! I absolutely cannot deny myself makeup at those prices, especially when the quality is 99% of the time acceptable! I have 4 of these eyeliners, and instead of reviewing individual colors for this product, I decided to review them as a whole since they all perform similarly.



The colors I have are: Coffee, Plum, Black, & Copper.



The one thing that I will just go ahead and get out of the way here that drives me nuts on ELF's website is that their color swatches are no where near the true color that you get. For example, Plum is shown to be a light purply-pink on the website whereas in person, it's a very dark, deep, well, plum color. Copper is also not near as opaque as they make it seem. It's basically a clear liquid eyeliner with gold glitter. Anyways. Onto the review!

Review: Hard Candy Meteor Eyes Baked Eyeshadow in "277 Lunar Eclipse"

The only Hard Candy products I have really dabbled in are their baked face products (blushes and a highlighting bronzer). I was not disappointed with those products at all, so I decided to pick up a baked eyeshadow to see how I liked it compared to the other products that I have tried by this brand.

Lunar Eclipse is the only shade I have tried, so I have nothing to compare it to. This review will be based solely off of this shade and this product alone.

Review: Revlon Illuminance Creme Shadow in Khaki Suede

Revlon, as a whole, has never done me wrong. I have not been completely unsatisfied with any products I've purchased. Granted, I've mostly just purchased lip products and an eyeshadow quad, but you get my drift.

Quick Tip #1

Tired of your concealer creasing on you throughout the day?

Never fear! There's a trick! Follow these simple steps and you'll bet set (no pun intended...)


  1. Put a little bit of eyelid primer under your eyes. 
  2. Tap it in with your ring finger like you would normally with your concealer. 
  3. Let it dry. 
  4. Apply concealer until things are the way you like them. 
  5. Add a setting powder. 
And that's it! The trick is an eyelid primer! I have tried this out several times since getting my Benefit Erase Paste (that sucker creases like CRAZY), and this has fixed the problem! Try it out, and let me know your results. :)
