Another ELF order

So my second ELF order arrived yesterday, a bit late because of Christmas.  This time I got the Mineral Lipstick, Liquid Lipstick, Powder (again), Studio Stipple Brush and the ordinary Eye Brush.



I got the Mineral Lipstick in Rich Raspberry and the Liquid Lipstick in Raspberry which is a new shade I think.  The Pressed Powder is Ivory.

I'll do some reviews on these products soon as I've tried all of them out already :)

Review: Benefit Lipsticks

So I have two Benefit lipsticks to review today.  These are two of my favourites: Benefit Full Finish Lipstick in 'La La Land' and Benefit Silky Finish Lipstick in 'Nice Knickers'.

From left: Silky Finish Lipstick in 'Nice Knickers' and Full Finish Lipstick in 'La La Land'.

The Silky Finish lipsticks have good colour and quite sheer coverage.  They don't last very long though, and would be suitable for people who don't usually wear lipstick but want to wear bright colours instead of lipgloss.

The Full Finish lipsticks are much thicker.  The formulation is quite creamy and is really nice to wear.  This lipstick has good pigmentation and lasts ages.  'La La Land' is quite a dark pink/brown colour and I found that, worn with a creamy lip balm, it came out a cute nude pink colour which is nice for daytime.

Overall I really like these.  I also love the packaging, as usual with Benefit i's really cute and retro.
