Hello there lovely readers!
Today I have a favourite product of mine to share with you,
one I just adore & am so glad to have discovered, as not only is it a great
quality product in my opinion, but has saved me lots of money’s (that can be spent elsewhere) as it’s so
cheap! And that’s always a good thing non? I’m talking about ELF’s Shimmering
Facial Whip in Lilac Pearl, which is a lovely liquid highlighter that adds the most
gorgeous glow to your skin…
I LOVE highlighters, I use them all the time in my makeup as
they really are a fab way of giving your whole complexion a healthier glow to
it & can be applied wherever you think you need glowing! Most notably of
course along the cheek bones, bridge of nose, lips & eyes. That’s where
this bad boy comes in, once I’ve done the foundation step, I go in with the
Facial Whip & just dot it along the top of my cheekbones, bridge of the
nose plus I also like to apply it under the brow bone going around the outer
eye.
At first I was surprised at the size of it, but blimey I’ve had
this little tube for yonks & it’s still going strong, mostly probably due
to its being so wonderfully pigmented, you only need to use a few dots, which
then blend out nicely.
Its consistency is great, not too thin, but you do need to
give the tube a bit of a shake every now & again before using as I found it
does have a tendency to separate? No big issue at all really, especially when
you consider the price which is a fabulous…£1.50! :D
Before I found this gem, I was an avid fan of Benefits High
Beam? I still am a huge fan of Benefit products but comparing the two prices of
£18.50 for which the High Beam retails for & this here ELF’s £1.50 Facial
Whip which does the exact same thing….well…I know which one I’d go for. Mumma didn’t
raise no fool ;) Not to mention the nifty packaging makes it perfect for
popping into the makeup bag without taking too much space! Fab! ELF Cosmetics
can be purchased ONLINE.
Have you tried ELF’s Facial Whip? Any favorites from this
makeup brand you’d like to share with moi? Thanks for reading as always dolls!
Lotsa love to ya!
Yeah boiiii, now this is more like it!
ReplyDeleteOne can not afford Benefit because I'm a peasant, glad we have ELF sticking around :D... (Says me with 2 MAC's Lightscapade, I used to be flush at one point until I got into lady boys isn't it. xo
FYI - The above comment about the lady boys is SO not true... *shifty eyes*...
ReplyDeleteBwahaha! Aaaaaah I do love ya Lima bean :D reeeeally loving ELF right now hun, such fab value & yes much more affordable for us peasants ;) Oooh what is this Lightscapade you speak of? If anything, the name itself is bloomin awesome! :D xoxo

Hello hun! Aww I knwo right? I mean I do still love them, they have some truly GORGUZ products (adore their blushers) but the price tag does make me wince! You're welcome hun, hope you like as much as I do! :) xoxo
DeleteI love benefit products. They have a novelty to them... But it soon wears off, and you'll always find a cheaper product that can do the exact same thing, if not better.
ReplyDeleteI'm yet to try the facial whip by elf, but have been using the pink lemonade all over cover stick as a cheek high lighter and it works really well, and lasts most of the day :D x
Yes very true hun & I've found quite a few much cheaper dupes out there for some of their products! Aaaah I LOVE the Pink Lemonade all over color stick! Its on my 'to blog about' list for sure ;) Do try the whip too, you'll love it & it comes in a few lovely shades too :) xoxo
