First Impression #6 — E.L.F. Jumbo Lip Gloss Sticks

First Impression #6 --- ELF Jumbo Lip Gloss Sticks

E.L.F. is another brand that’s jumped on the lip crayon bandwagon and I can say that I am impressed. E.L.F.  offers 8 shades of their Essential Jumbo Lip Gloss Stick. I snagged two colors, ‘Movie Star’ and ‘Pink Umbrellas’ from my local Target at $2 each. I really love the amount of product that you get with each stick.

The colors are very nice and pretty much match up to that of what the packaging indicates. My favorite of the two is definitely ‘Movie Star,’ but ‘Pink Umbrellas’ does remind me of the Revlon Colorburst Lipstick, ‘Peach.’

IMG_0524-1I love the consistency and they’re more moisturizing then I thought they would be. I do semi-moisturize my lips prior to application. Other colors I would love to try out are: ‘Flirty & Girly,’ ‘Sangria Starters,’ and ‘Summer Nights,’ at $2 a stick it’s not that bad and for the amount of product you’re getting $2 is a steal. One thing I love about E.L.F. lip products is that they’re inexpensive, nice quality, great color option, and the amount of product that you get is WORTHWHILE! Very impressed and would recommend.

My Makeup Collection!

I store my makeup in the top drawer of my dresser in these two containers. The first one that is a 6 compartment holds my eyeshadows and the 3 compartment one holds all of my face products. I purchased both containers from Target for under $15. Let’s break down what each compartment holds starting with the 3 compartment.

Although I do not put on makeup every day I do LIVE by my Mac Studio Fix. My Mary Kay & Maybelline foundations were bought & gifted to test out. I’m still playing around with the Mary Kay ones, but the Maybelline one is not my personal fav. I also have a few blushes that I use every now and then and I wear mascara (along with lipstick) if not anything else. Moving on to the 6 compartment.

I’ve become a semi-eyeshadow hoarder with 99.9% of them being from either ELF or the drugstore. The only high end palette I have is Naked Basics. I’m still holding off on purchasing a $52 Naked Palette. If I were to splurge on one it would definitely be Naked 2. Keep scrolling for full details on my eyeshadows.

So there you have it. That’s my collection in a nutshell. If you had trouble reading what each product was just click & it’ll be enlarged. If you want any reviews on quality / lasting power of any of the products leave me a comment below. PLUS I’ll be doing a separate posts on products I regret buying. Why still in my collection if I regret? I try to justify & find other ways to use them. Hope you enjoyed! One last thing, what’s in your collection? Whether it’s big or small like mine, let me know.
