Loose Powders -E.L.F. - Mineral Booster
kinta80s 12/13/2012 4:39:00 PM
I've had this in sheer (large). Used to purchase studio high definition powder in corrective yellow and translucent (which is smaller in quantity and in the end more expensive). This does exactly the same job to me, it sets my oily face to a matte silky finish for around 4h with l'oreal BB prior to application. Would continue to repurchase!

I've had this in corrective yellow and translucent. Sets my oily face to a matte silky finish for around 4h with l'oreal BB prior to application. Would definitely repurchase, ONLY IF elf.co.uk ran out of the sheer mineral booster large (which is cheaper and bigger quantity), and has similar effect on my face.

Mascara -E.L.F. - Studio Line Waterproof Lengthening & Volumizing Mascara
kinta80s 12/12/2012 8:06:00 AM
This beats all the high-euro mascaras that I've ever tried so far <3 It's not clumpy, separates lashes very well, I find it more lengthening than volumizing which I prefer (my dark eyelashes already have volume and length in it) the price is student-friendly. And it performs as good as the mineral infused mascara. Love the fact that it's waterproof. Repurchase? BIG YES <3

Eyeliner -E.L.F. - Cream Eyeliner - All Colors
kinta80s 12/12/2012 8:04:00 AM
I've had this cream eyeliner for more than a year now. Glad to say that it beats MAC's blacktrack in performance :) The only sad thing is that it dries up rather quickly due to the packaging. But it's no problem since I can always microwave it up for 30s and drop 5 drops of eyedrops (too much usage of the vocabulary). Swirl it around, and stir with a cut-end of a cotton bud. Pack up the formula by pushing them again with the puffy end of the bud, and at the same time it'll suck away the moisture. I have it in black, purple, olive, navy and golden. The last 4 I got for free for promotions :) Would definitely repurchase the black one if it ends... probably in 1,5 years though ;)

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Naked Palette
kinta80s 12/12/2012 7:58:00 AM
Everyone's been raving about this product. And I can find tons of youtube videos on swatches or tutorial about this. I was just very excited about this product and decided to spend big bucks on this. I had to wait for a week while beatybay.com is shipping the product to me (urban decay or sephora aren't available in Finland *total sad face). I just received this a week ago and just can't understand what the rave is all about. I have tons of bare minerals loose eyeshadows, and elf studio cream eyeshadows (in bronzed, candlelight and natural glow) and none of my friends or family can tell the difference which product I'm using now. For the high price with no difference at all, this wasn't worth the spending. Now I just can't wait to do my daily makeup with MUA's heaven and earth palette that I just ordered yesterday while MUA's website was having a 40% off (costs me only £2,4) instead of spending literally 1€ for each time I do my make up with urban decay naked palette :D I admit that it's a lot better pigmented than coastal scents 88 warm palette. So for the high price, NO i wouldn't repurchase :) I would use and bring this palette with me only when I'm travelling or sleeping over with friends. Sad to say, but some of them look down on elf and lower dollar products. So I really have to bring this palette and MAC products with :P

Concealers -Garnier - Anti-Dark-Circle Eye Roller
kinta80s 12/12/2012 7:48:00 AM
The consistency is perfect and it glides on evenly on my skin. Still needs to swipe it with fingers instead of concealer brush afterwards but I have no problems with it :) Due to my super lack of sleep, I added up to my hideous under-eye concealing routine a tad bit of highly pigmented bright orange eyeshadow, top it off with this concealer. Love the result. Stays on throughout the day <3

Treatments -Clarins - Beauty Flash Balm
kinta80s 12/12/2012 7:45:00 AM
I would definitely repurchase this product as long as I'm alive. First time I used it was 5 months ago. My makeup artist recommended it for my super oily slick skin. I ended up applying it to the T-zone everyday til now. Packed on fast with l'oreal nude magique bb cream. Finally found my combo for combatting oily face <3

Lipstick -E.L.F. - Studio Matte Lip Color
kinta80s 11/30/2012 8:39:00 PM
I have this one in praline. I still believe that this is the best lipliner out there that fits my skin tone and lipstick collection. But I accidentally dropped it once from a chin-height, the structure of the product is apparently very fragile. It starts screwing and unscrewing the outer plastic part instead of budging the product. And when i tried fixing the problem by taking out the bottom and pushing the product out, it went far too out and I couldn't push it back in. So lesson learnt, I'll buy tons more of these colors but treating them like queens :)

BB Cream -L'Oreal - Nude Magique BB Cream
kinta80s 11/30/2012 9:58:00 AM
Would definitely repurchase. I use clarins flash balm below this. Mattifies my super oily skin, leaving it smooth-textured and evenly translucent-tinting without making it look cakey. Better than Misha BB, garnier BB, maybelline and any mousse foundation that I've ever tried. I don't mind paying 17€ for this outstanding quality

Lip Treatments -E.L.F. - Studio Lip Exfoliator
kinta80s 11/30/2012 9:54:00 AM
I have this bad habit of peeling my lips, this one eventually stops it, and my lips nowadays has stopped cracking. Awesome purchase. This can tackle even the lipfinity products to stay on even longer :)

Lip Treatments -Burt's Bees - Beeswax Lip Balm
kinta80s 11/9/2012 2:43:00 PM
Great lipbalm that lasts for hours, but when used constantly it starts taking out the natural moisture away from your lips and I just hate the flaking effect. Make sure u exfoliate the lips constantly. Not sure if I wanna repurchase or not. It's not that cheap afterall.

Lack of pigmentation. Shows as a light pale shimmer on my face and didn't even create any subtle pink. Throwing this away for good

Eyeliner -E.L.F. - Waterproof Eyeliner Pen
kinta80s 3/6/2012 1:11:00 PM
i have given this product a second try but still not worth it. its always been dry and the tip is too sharp. it hurts during application. both ones are tossed away after one-time trials. would definitely never waste anymore euros on this product

Eyeliner -E.L.F. - Liquid Eyeliner - Black
kinta80s 3/6/2012 1:07:00 PM
this product is a definite no-no for my oily skin. it wouldnt even last for half an hour and it doesnt even dry off quick enough. a permanent marker wouldve done a better job than this one. and if it rains or snows or humid outside, then this will just drain on the face like a scary ghost makeup
