Review & Swatches - ELF Matte Lip Color

Hello Lovelies,
So today I am doing the review and swatches for the ELF matte lipsticks. I know it’s been a while for those who requested it. The lipsticks are sold for $3 each but you can always use coupon code to save few bucks $$...

According to the company:
“This convenient jumbo sized lip pencil creates exact color application with twist up ease so you never have to sharpen. The pigment rich color glides on effortlessly and easily to provide long lasting matte color. The enriched Vitamin A, C & E formula moisturizes and hydrates lips for beautiful healthy looking lips.”
My thoughts:
I love the packaging. Almost like a marker or jumbo pencil for lips. Easy to apply and very precise. Color payoff is great, very opaque. I got them for $1.50 each, definitely a great bargain!!!$_$ I feel that using lip balm underneath would give a flawless application. Natural lipstick was a bit drying for me so I had to apply lip gloss over it. Others were ok!

Left to right: Praline, Natural, Coral and Tea Rose

     Now on to individual lip stick swatches...
Warm, Rich Red-Brown Shade




Nice Nude shade to add to your collection :)



Looks a bit drying

So, I applied ELF hypershine lipgloss in Honey over it...Looks Pretty :)


 Love this Coral shade :) (the bottom pink cap is very deceiving)




Looks very Similar to Natural lipstick
Tea Rose
Looks more Mauve-y

Here, looks more lilac-pink

Whether I would buy it: Definitely yes!! I love them and would recommend it. ELF added two new shades, so thinking of trying them as well..

Disclaimer: I have not given these products by anyone or the company mentioned, I bought these with my own money. I am not being paid to do this review; this is my personal and honest opinion.

XOXO

Ohhhh Great review. I want to try this out now. I love e.l.f. products but it can be a hit or miss kind of thing.

If you ever do a review on the Mineral Blemish Kit and Zip Zapper, definitely let me know. Also the studio cream blush.
