E.L.F Cosmetics

The Studio Contour brush is my least favorite brush.
My aunt owns it and if you pull all the hairs to one side there is a huge gap.
Your better off buying 3 contour brushes.

Or you could try the pointy sponge tip brushes,but I doubt they would last longer than 5 applications.

I was going to try the studio line before I found that video. I like the $1 contour brush so much I bought 15 of them.

Thanks again, you're all so helpful!
I have read the same thing about the half - full ferule on the Contour brush.... I think I will stick to a 222 or 224 in this case.

I am only interested in the Studio line because I want the overall look of my brush collection to be the same, black handle...




So far my brush wishlist goes like this:

Studio Powder Brush
Studio Complexion Brush
Studio Eyeshadow C Brush
Studio Small Precision Brush OR Small Smudge Brush


Not sure if I should give the Angled Foundation Brush a try.



Also, if anyone happens to own both of these, it would be great if you could share your opinion:
How does the Elf Studio Angled Liner compare to the Coastal Scents Taklon Angled Liner? I would rather buy from ELF because I don't feel 100 % fine with supporting Coastal Scents...

FYI last weekend at my local ROSS 'dress for less' store, they had a ton of ELF 'kits'--i didnt pay much attention but i think they were liek 5 dollars it came with a couple brushes and i think it was like a minerals set, with a brush case and maybe 6-7 'pots' of stuff. they had various different 'sets'.

The complexion brush is awesome as well as the powder brush,they get as much use as my MAC brushes!
The angled foundation brush my Aunt also owns and it works great with all foundations,so much better than the $1 foundation brush!

I don't own the Coastal Scents or Studio angled liner brush so I can't help you with that.

Does anyone have the Studio Small Angled brush? I was wondering how it compares in size to the MAC #208. I've been hunting around for a synthetic version of the 208 but all the angled brushes I've found are quite wide, which is not so great for my small eyes.

Thanks!!

It's either i suck at putting eyelashes or they're really hard to put on. The glue that comes with the lashes is not very effective. I had to use the glue i got from Walgreens (Lash duo).

Anyways, I like some ELF products and hate some.. hehe.

I love:
-All over cover stick ( really great concealer esp if under the eyes)
-Shimmering Facial Whip in toasted (great highlighter/ eyeshadow cream)
-e/s brush ( I LOVE LOVE this brush)

I hate
-Bronzer (it broke me out)
-Face brush (not soft

.. harsh on skin)

I love their Studio Powder brush, it applies my MAC MSF Natural and blush/bronzer really well, absolutely love it!

Would love to try out their other brushes too.. maybe lipgloss or false eyelashes as well.

 

[raspberries]

I got elf products as free extras and throw ins in makeupalley until now, but I am really starting to love these products! I really like their Shimmering Facial Whips, you can use them on your cheeks to give you that dewy healthy glow. It says you can use them on your lips too, but I never tried... I'm having mixed feelings about using it on my lips. I also like their Liquid eyeliner! the tip is very firm and precise.

I am amazed at how much I love my first order from E.L.F's studio line.

I ordered, Flat topped brush, C Brush, contour brush, complexion perfection, blush and bronzer palette, concealer pencil.

There isn't a single thing that I dislike. My favourites are the flat topped brush (it is SO versatile!) the complexion perfection palette and the concealer pencil (probably my favourite concealer product I have used so far!

Seriously, I urge anyone who hasn't tried this stuff yet to just GO FOR IT!

It is so cheap too

 

[fa.iza88]

i realllly want to know about that brush belt is it worth it???cuz its soo much cheaper than the Mac or the Sigma one

 

[MkupTart]

I recently bought an E.L.F Blending Brush ($1), it has the same shape as MAC's #217 brush (which I recently lost and have been mourning). While it isn't as soft as the #217 it does a pretty great job of blending.

Right now I don't have the $$$ to spend on MAC. I saw the brush while at my local $.99 store and thought "Its a $1"

I am going back to pick up more just as back ups. My eyes are kind of small and this brush fits perfectly and is stiff enough that I don't over blend. I really love it and highly recommend for those that want a dupe of the #217 and are on a tight budget.
