E.L.F HD Blush review



E.L.F HD blush £3.75 each

So I had been gazing lustily and some what enviously at all the American beauty bloggers who were raving about the Make up forever blush dupes by E.L.F last year. I was far too lazy to order some from America so I waited for them to come out in the UK. There are 5 different shades in the studio line HD blush range. Usually I would have bought one for a test run but as they had a 3 for 2 offer I treated myself.
At less than £4 each it hardly breaks the bank.
 I went for the darker end of the spectrum as a fail safe.
I also got some as gifts for my birthday yay so now I have doubles.

The Blushes double up as a lip tint and look really great on.
The packaging can be a little fiddly, don't be nervous give it a shake and I would definitely suggest using a very small amount and pumping the product out sllllloooooowly. I found blending with a stippling brush a lot more manageable than my fingers but I do tend to be a bit impatient with cream/ liquid blushes as they are so pigmented. As I said they do appear to be a straight up dupe of the MUFE HD High Definition Blush but I won't go into a detailed comparison as I have only used MUFE a handful of times but with a price range of $26 E.LF seems to be better value for money.

E.L.F has always given me good quality products but I am still incredibly picky with what I get from them. haven't tried their blushers before as I have heard they can be a bit  hit and miss. I have used these for a month or two and I can highly recommend this range of blushes. Especially in these prolonged cold months they really add dewiness to my skin and is incredibly long lasting!.

Check them out.

SS13 statement: Holographic



Zoe by Miista

Hey dolls, I am a big lover of oxfords. I enjoy that androgynous feel.
 I have been eyeing these hologram oxfords by London designer Miista called the "Zoe".
The design reminds me of  a grown up pair of flatform spice girl trainers, I loved wearing as a kid!
 They still have that beautiful, playful iridescent sheen but repackaged into something much more suited to dressing now.
The touch on the futuristic trend and the lavender opalest sheen is perfect for spring/ summer.
All year around really!
They are such a beautiful statement piece for your collection.
