Hello there! Thanks for stopping by. Today's post is about my ELF bronzer. With the odd flashes of sun we are blessed with every now and then, It's nice to have golden godess skin.
I purchased this bronzer a while back from the ELF website for the tiny price of just £1.50, I didn't expect it to be up to much and I intended on popping it in the little make up bag that I use for out and about. Yes, it might sound strange that I have a out and about cheaper bag, BUT, I have lost my make up bag when travelling in the past before. If you tot up how much moneys worth of product is in your kit, you can imagine how much it cost me to replace. £1.50 isn't something you'd cry about if you left it in a taxi, on a bus or airport.
I was pleasantly surprised by this bronzer. It isn't the type of bronzer I usually go for, I love Matte as opposed to anything with a shimmer. I do make the exception with this bronzer, when applied lightly and carefully this bronzer's shimmer is fantastic at contouring cheek bones and adding definition to eye/ brow bones and jaw lines. Its very highlighting. As the name Luminance would suggest, it illuminates the areas where you want definition.
The packaging is very basic, it doesn't look unsightly but it isn't the prettiest of pots. It has a good longevity when used with a good primer. It doesn't crumble easily when transferring to a brush so it doesn't leave you feeling patchy when applied. Its very easy to apply I use my Real Techniques Blush Brush and always get flawless results. If you love shimmer this will be perfect for you, if not, give it ago as a highlighter teamed with your usual bronzer.
For the price tag, its worth a try. Anyone else use this or one of the other shades?
Much Love
Amy

FOTD: Face Of the Day, Natural Nudes
Afternoon everyone, I thought I'd share my FOTD with you all, I don't wear make- up everyday, (yes shock horror: a beauty blogger that doesn't always have a face of slap!!) but when I do, day to day, I like my make-up to look as natural as possible. For me, every day make- up is about enhancing your features, covering imperfections. Occasions make-up is where I'm more adventurous and will go whole hog, bright red lips, smoky eyes, bold brows.
Anyway, these are the products I used:
Tools:
Real Techniques Foundation Brush
Real Tecniques Powder Brush
Real Techniques Stippling Brush
Real Tecniques Buffing Brush
Real Techniques Eyebrow Brush
Boots No7 Concealer Brush
ELF eyes lips face Eyelash and Brow wand
Products:
Benefit That Gal Primer
Mac Lipstick in HUE
Rimmel London Stay Matte pressed powder TRANSLUCENT
Bourjois Cream blush 03
Benefit Boi-ing Concealer in 01
Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclait Radiant touch
Benefit Browzings MEDIUM
Mac mineralize skin finish natural bronzer MEDIUM DARK
Chanel Vitalumiere in NUDE 10
ELF eyes lips face Make Up Mist and set
And finally, this is my completed look, I scraped my hair back to try and give a closer look of the final result. I hope you like it.
Do any of you guys use these products? I'd love to hear from you.
Much love
Amy
