E.L.F Studio cream eyeliners review

Never used a cream eyeliner prior to using E.L.F's cream liners so wasn't sure what to expect, all I know is that I personally find it easier to apply than liquid or pencil eyeliner( I still use both once in a while!).

 There's not much left of the black one as I've been using it a lot and had it the longest than the other two.

Black cream eyeliner after 4 hours

Black, Purple and Coffee

Why I bought this?
   I want to try a cream eyeliner and at £3.50 each I thought it's definitely worth a try. Initially bought the black one a few months ago and then the two other shades. 


Texture and Packaging
   Comes in a small square pot which is quite lightweight so handy to put in your make up kit if needed and it also comes along with a small eyeliner brush which I've been using. This brush is basically a mini version of their studio small angled brush which I also own. The brush is ok but tends to get quite stiff and absorbs too much of the liner which gets stuck which means I have to wipe it on a tissue quite often to get the right amount. It's creamy and is easy to apply (once I get to steady my hand as I get shaky when applying liner boo!). 


Overall
   I love this product, it's affordable and versatile. Been using it for work and it's still on after 8 hours - might not be as good as when I applied it in the morning but it's still got long lasting coverage.

Creme Cup and Patissiere MAC lipsticks

I only own two MAC lipsticks and I absolutely love them! 

Creme Cup - Cremesheen finish (light blue pink)

Patissiere    - Lustre finish          (Sheer creamy neutral pink)

 

Creme Cup, excuse my chapped lips :-)

Patissiere on natural light.

 Why I bought this?


    I LOOVE lipsticks so much and PINK is probably my favourite(all shades of pink that is) so I thought I would try the MAC lipsticks as it's one of their most popular products.

Smell and Texture

    Love the smell of these lipsticks it's got a slight sweet scent to it. Both are very creamy and goes on really well. Personally I find that Patissiere doesn't feel as heavy on the lips as Creme Sheen does since I only own two MAC lipsticks I am not sure if this has got to do with the difference in finish.

Overall
   I find that I use Patissiere more for everyday daytime looks(work etc) but I also adore Creme Sheen and would recommend it to anyone after a nice pink creamy lipstick. I wouldn't say the staying power is superb but I only have to retouch the lipstick after 3-4 hours which isn't too bad for me. So far I am loving these two lipsticks and will definitely try other shades from MAC in the future.
