July 2021 Haul #4 E.L.F. Cosmetics Haul

Hey doll hey!!! How’s your day/night going? Great I hope.

I received my ELF purchase in the mail today so I thought I would haul it.

So on to the haul ….

*As always… All products listed I purchased myself, all links provided are purely for convenience purposes to help you find the product quickly and are in no way affiliate links. The swatches are done on clean bare skin with no primer and are done in 1 swipe, pictures to the left/top are taking without flash and the right/bottom with flash*

I ordered so much that I had to take 2 product shots to get them all in 😂

1. ELF Putty & Cream Blush Brush ($4 each on the ELF website) is billed as a tapered blush brush that applies putty and cream formulas.

I already own 1 of these brushes but thought I could use a few more in my kit.

2. Jelly Pop Juicy Gloss ($5 for 0.37 fl oz / 11 mL of product on their website) is billed as a non-sticky lip gloss infused with hydrating Hyaluronic Acid and natural oils to give your pout a sheer wash of high-shine color. I chose the Watermelon scent.

I gave this gloss to my niece. It has a fake watermelon scent that I just couldn’t get passed so I passed it on to her since she liked the scent.

3. Jelly Pop Luscious Lip Mask ($6 for 0.15 oz / 4.4 g of product on their website) is billed as a leave-on jelly lip mask infused with watermelon extract, hyaluronic acid, and vegan collagen to hydrate and soften lips. It’s watermelon scented and better scented than the gloss formula.

First Impressions: I tried the mask out and it was very hydrating and long lasting. Once it wore off my lips felt baby smooth.

4. Lip Exfoliator ($4 for 0.11 oz / 3.3 g of product on their website) is billed as a moisturizing lip scrub that gently removes dry, dead skin, revealing lips that look and feel smoother. It comes in 4 flavors and I chose Mint Maniac and Sweet Cherry.

First Impressions: The mint smells like toothpaste but the cherry one smells like candy. I ran out of lip scrub so I thought I’d try this one out.

5. Big Mood Mascara ($7 for 0.36 oz / 10 g of product on their website) is billed as a volumizing and lifting mascara with a uniquely shaped brush head to give you big, bold lashes that command attention.

First Impressions: The brush looks like it will give great volume but I’m not ready for a new mascara just yet.

6. Face and Body Gems ($3 for 81 gems each style on their website) is billed as face, body and nail gems to elevate your look! Perfect for costumes, cosplay or festivals.

First Impressions: They look cute and were inexpensive so I thought why not.

7. Ride or Die Lip Balm ($5 for 0.42 oz / 12 g on their website) is billed as an  intensely hydrating tinted lip balm with sheer wash of color. Comes in 7 scents and I chose Mighty Mint.

First Impressions: This is a medium thickness balm. It smells like gum and isn’t the most hydrating but it’s not drying either.

8. Dewy Coconut Setting Mist ($10 for 2.7 fl oz / 80 mL of product on their website) is billed as a setting spray that gives skin a dewy glow, infused with skin-loving ingredients Coconut, Green Tea, and Cucumber, known to hydrate and condition the skin. It claims to give you a healthy-looking, dewy glow and holds your makeup in place for a long-lasting finish.

I haven’t opened this one yet as I still have setting spray for the month.

9. Hydrating Coconut Mist ($8 but on sale for $6 for 2.7 fl oz / 80 mL of product on their website) is billed as a lightweight, hydrating facial mist that refreshes, soothes, and balances skin (pre-and-post makeup application).

I’ve yet to test this one out. I will test this one once I’ve finished my coconut water spray.

10. Mint Melt Cooling Face Primer ($8 for 1.01 fl oz / 30 mL of product on their website) is billed as a unique gel texture primer that keeps makeup in place while hydrating your skin with a cooling effect and claims to have a unique gel texture grips makeup to ensure it stays put.

First Impressions: This is a cooling primer, doesn’t really smell like mint but it really is cooling. It also is tacky just like the Jelly Pop primer.

11. Electric Mood x Pitizion De La Soul Cream Face Quad ($12 for 0.38 oz / 10.8 g of total product on their website making it 0.095 oz / 2.7 g and $4 each shade) is billed as co-created with their Beauty Scape winner Emily Carden and is a 4-pan collection of cream highlighter, bronzer, and blushes for a sculpted, shaded, and glowing complexion.

First Impressions: This is a very creamy product but the highlighter is very balmy without really any payoff… I’ll have to see what it looks like on the face.

12. Putty Blush ($6 for 0.35 oz / 10 g of product on their website) is billed as  velvety, lightweight putty blush that melts into your skin and claims to be highly pigmented, creamy formula melts into skin for a natural glow with a lightweight, buildable formula and transforms from cream to a semi-matte powder finish.

This comes in 8 shades and I purchased 2.

This shade is Turks and Caicos (coral pink).

I’ve tried these blushes before and didn’t like them, but I now have the putty blush brush so I wanted to see if that can make them work better for me. It seems to have applied on my hand much better than the first time I tried them out. This time I tapped it over the area and then buffed it out with my finger in a patting motion so I have high hopes for it.

13. Putty Blush ($6 for 0.35 oz / 10 g of product on their website) is billed as  velvety, lightweight putty blush that melts into your skin and claims to be highly pigmented, creamy formula melts into skin for a natural glow with a lightweight, buildable formula and transforms from cream to a semi-matte powder finish.

It comes in 8 shades, I purchased 2 (1 for contour and 1 for bronzing).

This shade is Beach Please (the 2nd to the last shade).

First Impressions: This formula is creamy but goes on a bit patchy… that might just be because of the texture of the back on my hand… I’m still looking forward to trying these bronzers on the face.

It comes in 8 shades.

I chose the shade Guava (deep champagne highlighter and coral satin blush).

First Impressions: I purchased this duo because it looked as if it could be a dupe for a blush duo by Natasha Denona…. and I do believe it is…. The blush is very sheer but would make a pretty topper over cream blushes.

If you couldn’t tell I absolutely LOVE this pomade. It’s my favorite one and I stock up every time there is a sale or a good promotion going on on there website. This restock should last me the rest of the year.

18. Illuminating Face Primer ($7 0.47 fl oz / 14 mL of product on their website) is billed as an ideal primer for creating a radiant glow with subtle shimmer. The weightless silky formula is great for all skin types. This primer fills in fine lines and refines your complexion. Prime and let dry to enjoy makeup that blends smoothly and lasts all day!

First Impressions : There is fine mica or glitter in this primer… It felt velvety and like it would blur the pores but damn it… glitter in a face product GRRRR.
