  • I'm just saying, I beileve the hyproshine lip glosses were meat to be more of a glossy sheer look with a hint of color(hense the name hyproSHINE), they work better if you wear them over the elf essential lip sticks. but anyway I loved this video it was sweet and simple and easy to understand! Thank you for making this!

  • since i cant wear makeup i just brough 5 products from e.l.f 4 beginners ( well i consider myself a beginner :) ) i cant wait 2 try some on

  • i'm wearing the elf essentials eyeshadow quad in silver lining on my eyes right now, IT'S AMAZING!

  • i found elf studio products at my local dollar tree.

  • maybe you have a tutorial/review on the ELF Eyebrow kit. If so, I'd love to bebpointed to it. If not, can you consider doing it? I've viewed two by other women, that weren't very helpful for me. Before I keep my appointment next month for permenant makeup eyebrows, I'd really love a good lesson. If ELF brow kit isn't a good one, can you give a tutorial on what you do like? i really love your video's so much. Thanks

  • Moondust is the most awesome eyeshadow color ever!

  • I'm sad that they don't have the candy shop lip gloss anymore!

  • @InfamyBloodhoof exactly what i was thinking

  • u should get the master set u should check it out on elf.com

  • This was SOOOOOOOO helpful! Thank you!

  • This is such an easy, and helpful review to watch! I learned what to stay away from and try out. Thank you!

  • I just started my ELF collection and I really like, especially the affordability. I love the scents on some of their products too. I am looking to expand my collection and I bookmarked this video so I can write down prducts I want to try that I saw in the store but was a little nervus about. Do you have an opinion about the tinted moisturizer. I went ahead and bought it because it was only $3! I haven't tried it yet, because I haven't had the chance, but I'd like to know your opinion.

  • ahhh this is so old, here i am watching it in 2011 lol.

  • Thanks that helped a bunch though I'm not sure ELF products are available in Canada ..

  • @ChloeLynnxx they are but its not of great quantities. i saw some in giant tigers.

  • @ChloeLynnxx they ship to many countries and they are cheaper online than in a store they have free shipping with $25 or more

  • wow i so agree with you on the things i got like the pencil liners,so hard to remove, the hypershine lip not enough color wish i saw yr review b4 igot them. Thanks for such a good review

  • Amazing(: Though I missed your face haha.

  • Hi I wanted to order the cover sticks and tinted moisturizer from the $ 1 line. I am about your color nw 20. What color would you recommend? What do you think about the HD powder? Thank ry

  • you should really tryout the elf waterproof eyelienr PEN!

    its works wonders for me n i think itll work well for u too!

    its very easy to acheive a thin line with it, I just started using liquid type of liner and it is soo much easier than i though it would be :D

  • This is so useful indeed, thank you very much! I actually removed the black eye pencil from my wish list :)

    They don't have the candy shop lip glosses on the uk website so I won't be able to try those...

  • The cap doesnt stay on for me either!!

  • very helpful! love the dot technique

    

  • Im suprise she not partner

  • the elf total face brush stayed on for me. I have two of them actually, and they work well. the eyeshadow brush was the one that broke for me ! it must have been the one i got.

  • Can you please do an updated version of this video?

  • i really like this, i was wondering wich concealer and lipgloss to order and now i've decided thanks to you. SOOO helpful with the dots, thanks! :)

  • thanks so much! LOVELOVELOVE the dots! very helpful for my order im about to put in(:

  • So helpful!

  • and also at ROSS nobody mentioned that

  • Thanks so much for this! I've been making up an order for elf and it was great to have some opinions on things to feel more confident on what I'm buying (: The only elf products I currently have is a few liquid liners (which I love). Can't wait to try everything! :D

  • great review! i recently purchased the mineral foundation, eyelash curler, and kabuki brush. the foundation was alright, but doesn't have much staying power & looks a bit cakey, the eyelash curler is great, and the kabuki brush is terrible! the bristles fall out all over the place. i think with elf it really depends on the product because some are great and some are not so great.

  • thank you very much!!!

  • I absolutely love basically all elf products that I've tried, but my absolute favorite is the pressed powder. I use the large face brush with it and it actually has given me more coverage than my previous powders.

    I love your dot system :) fantastic.

  • thnxxxxx

  • I like most elf stuff,but their nail polishes are not so great.

  • the press powder worked really good for me !!

  • I LOVE the plum liner!!! My fave:) I'm so mad I didn't watch this before buying a shitload of elf bc some of the products I bought are not that great and I totally would've bought some of the ones you mentioned. Some of them I considered and just decided not to.

  • thanks so much!

  • I got that same all over brush sent to me twice and i had the same problem with both. it is a good product though if you superglue the handle

  • why does it cost 1 Dollar, but 1, 75 euro? that's more than twice as much :(

  • THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR USING THIS DOT SYSTEM!!! this makes it so easy to understand and rate... thank you :)

  • I've never had problem with my large face brush- handle stays on just fine, maybe yours was defective?

  • wonderful video, very helpful! :)

  • i dont know what your talking about, i love the pressed powder! and the concealer....DO NOT BUY THE LIQUID LINER TOO MANY REASONS TO LIST BUT THEY SUCKKKKKKK!

  • i dont know what your talking about, i love the pressed powder! and the concealer....

  • This is a great way to do an overview of a certain brand! I have actually already seen this video I just love watching it ! I saw this video and that's why I subscribed to you

  • they changed alot of there products, so i bet some of them are better now.

  • wouldnt stay on the handle for me either!

  • I actually love the pencil liners! I put the elf sealer on before hand and it stays on for a long time.

  • The problem with elf is for is that it takes forever to ship to me. 2-3 weeks and when I order from other places it takes only 4 days. I live in Los Angeles

  • I got the eyeshadow pack Drama, And the black was kind of dull. Not a great color but I made it work. I also HATE the eyeliners. They suck.

  • i love this! brilliant review, right to the point! x

  • Darn I ordered the all over face brush :P

  • awesome review!! i wish more reviews were like this. sometimes, even after sitting through the whole video, u still have to ask "so would you recommend it or not??!!??!!" but this was clear and to the point. thx! :D

  • thanks for this video because a few of the items marked red i was going to buy but i shall take another look and reconsider it :)

  • Precise and to the point. I get sick of reviews full of inane crap. Well done! Maybe invest in a better mic though.

  • I Bought A E.L.F. Makeup Set And It Came With A Black Eyeliner And The Lid Wouldn't Stay On Either ):

  • Oh my god u have a TON of elf makeup!!! The dots were incredibly helpful, best review/collection I have probably ever seen

  • This is one of the best review/ collection videos I have ever seen on youtube! It was straight to the point and really helpful, especially by using the dots! I would love to see more videos like these in the future from you :)

  • You know why I love about your videos ? Its WORTH watching! Not like other girls doing a long and boring and lost speech!

  • I could definetly see you speaking over the intercoms on an airplane. Were you a stewardess before an anchor woman?

  • how do you get the concealer not to crease under your eyes? (elf all over cover stick)

    what powder do you set it with?

    i absolutely love this product but it always creases :(

    please help

    any tips and tricks is really helpful

    thank you (:

  • Best review (;

  • omg please do more of these types of reviews with the dots they're WONDERFUL!

  • i think that the all over face brush is amazing!

  • Hi! Thanks for the review! Plus, I was browsing the elf site and found out they now have $1 lipsticks now! I was wondering if you could try them out and do a review on them. Thanks a bunch if you do :)

  • i bought coastal scents after watching your warm palette/metal mania reviews and now you've introduced me to elf!!! i'm so happy and can't wait to order thank you =)

  • One of my favorite videos ever! Such a great way to tell us what you liked and didn't like, and wasn't a really long one. Straight to the point and what we needed to know!

  • this was so helpful , thank you so much!

  • Sometimes if you get water in the farell(metal part) it will come off.

  • i just found your vid. it's really helpful. thanks.

  • THANKS, FOR BEING HONEST!!!

  • After watching your reviews on the e.l.f. products, I went to my local Target and got a basket full of make-up for under $25! Your dots made all the difference in chosing the right products! Thanks Em! Your reviews have taught me so much!

  • @jendez04 you guys get so lucky for living in the states. here in Brunei, for one cream eyeshadow duo, they charged it for USD$5.70. n the eyeshadow brushes, most of 'em are in the range of USD$14 each. idk if thats considered as an okay price since i live in south east asia. but still, how i wish i could spend below $25 for a bunch of make up products.

  • Splendid review. Like, ALL MAKE UP GURU'S need to do reviews like this. So concise and not boring.

  • 3:31 when shes showing the eyeshadows in the compact it looks like a face with the bottom 2! hehe.

  • best review by far, really straight to the point. thank you youve made my decision alot easier 

  • Thank you for u help !!! 

  • you helped alot. i needed info on lipstick from elf, if u have an update

  • @LKCHOCOLATE the lipsticks are great. I have the nude one i believe, from the studio line. I love it. very nice color and very smoothe. i like to put the minty nashville gloss over it.

  • This video helped a lot!! Please do more brand reviews and the color coded dots is such a no brainer idea haha again Thanks for the video

  • how much was all of this

  • this was very helpful i agreed with you most of the time ha(:

  • You can use the shimmering facil whips as eye primer.

  • the bronzer that was in that one pallete that you liked is in the studio line as the bronzing powder along with the contouring blush.

  • what are the dots for ? im blond -.-

  • @blableblubla1 then you must also be deaf :) the dots mean: good (green), average (yellow) and bad (red).

  • @ALiSsDr i was just asking . speakers broke so im asking ... jeez . people these days :/

  • @blableblubla1 sorry I didn't know that. But at least I answered your question; you could've said thanks instead of complaining =/

  • @ALiSsDr its ok. and im sorry . and thank u 

  • ive been using the all over face brush for about a month now and the handle has still not gotten loose yet and hasnt shed too much either, its really good for only a buck :)

  • thankyou ! i appreciate this video so much jill

  • My top of my eye liner falls off everytime I flip it over as well, very annoying but such a good product! :) Thanks for the video..ELF is such a great product!

  • i liked the clarifying powder :[

  • thanks for covering so much in one video.

  • I-love-you-for doing that!

  • best review EVER!!

  • OH, my god.... I got many of your recommendations and Love it....

  • thanks this really help :)

  • Emily, I KNEW that voice was familiar. How fun that you're an ELF fan, too! Great review, girlie.

  • Super Thanks :D... for the video it was amazing I will go to the Big Lots and to target and try some of them, specifically the eyeshadow brushes!!!! and some lip products!! I love all your videos :P

  • about to go to the store to get some elf make up!

  • Really helpful, straight to the point, love the colour coding system. =]

  • Great review, very helpful. Thanks!

  • thanks for this review = D !

  • Wow! This is the most extensive ELF review I've ever viewed! I'm planning on purchasing more ELF products and this review will help me a lot. Thanks for uploading this review! :)

  • i hate the eyelash curler i think i wasted my money on something useless it is wayy too big for my eye and it always pinches my eye skin. so im going to return that even if its a dollar i can get something WAY better. since i got it at target i can always take my dollar else where. as in the dollar center at target :D

  • Right on, cool video. Not only are they super cheap, they don't test on animals and they are making the switch to vegan friendly. I wish everyone knew about them, only because I appreciate how great E.L.F really is!

  • has anyone tried the makeup remover cleansing cloths? I read some reviews and heard they were awesome..

  • i found a huge inventory at food 4 less too!

  • do the cream eyeshadows crease???

  • tinkerlove15;

    if you put the correct amount on, it won't crease. [;

  • Thank you SOOO Much for this review!! i found this video about 4 months ago, and i am ordering makeup off elf's website, so i figured i track down this review again. thank you, because you saved me from buying a few products i wasnt sure were going to work or not. i had a question though. Do you now how the eyelid primer or the Eye widener (pretty much white pencil eyeliner) work? Becasue i was thinking about getting those and i want to know if they work good. THANK YOU!!! :)

  • This may be a late reply, but i own both of them and their great. The eye-widener really makes your eyes pop and I swear by the primer :)

  • eye widener is terrible

  • Great, well organized review...simple and to the point!

    I'm in the middle of placing my first order with E.L.F and I'm glad you covered some of the items I'm thinking of getting!

  • What a fabulous and complete review! Saved me a ton of money! Excellent "investigative" report! Thanks!

  • thanks emily...you make me feel like i can buy elf makeup without feeling i'm the only one buyibg"cheaper" products...i actually feel like im indulging w/out feeling guilty as a mom:)

  • thanks so much for this review! you really did a great job giving an overall idea of which products are worth using.

  • Your presentation with the dots all around IS SO SMART! Makes your review much more concise! 100 marks for that!

  • the last lip products that she said are still there they just changed the packaging and they are still the same colors and have the same color names they are now called plumping lip glaze

  • I have just placed my first ever E.L.F. order. I ordered loads because it's just really affordable. I'm very excited now to see for myself what the story is with E.L.F.

  • thank you so much! i didnt know wether to get the all over stick or not but you rated it green so i know its a must have! =]

  • I love those lip tins. I got my friends addicted to them too because you can smell them when they open.

  • REALLY good, helped alot :)

  • Thanks for the review! I've been debating ordering any elf products for a while now. Maybe I'll skip right over there and finally order some!

  • omg that happened to me to i dint like the allover face brush it sux....

  • thank you so much for this great video! It was very informative and I appreciate how much effort went into making it clear and to the point. Others could take a lesson from you on making a video without all the extra "fluff"..... Def one of the best vids I've seen!

    Thanks again!

  • you should reely try the therupedic lip balm in vanilla cream. my fav!

  • Thanks for this! I actually ordered most of these products. I ordered them before I saw the video, but this was a good review so I know what I'm getting....

  • GREAT HELP, thanks!

  • very helpfull!! really you rate the concealer brush high? i havent bought anything yet but i have heard many BAD reviews about it because of its flimsiness. what do you have to say specifically about that brush?

  • very nice presentation!.. kudos to you

  • I have the same problem with my eyeliner pencil caps, and they do not show up at all on my skin!

  • I have the CandyShop lip tins and love them. They are $2.50 each online but I purchased 3 for $2.50 at Big Lots.

  • omg the are having a sell now if you have te code there 50 cent. and they tell me this a day after i order them loll

  • i LOVE elf products! And i love how they are so cheap! i have the gray/black/white eye shadow, and it makes a great smokey eye!! i give it and A+

  • Amazing review! Thank you s omuch!

  • does the lip plumper burn your lips? becuz i have had some lip plumper thats burned my lips before

  • Yes lip plumpers sting your lips and because it is stinging them, they plump up. These lip plumpers will sting as well unfortunately, but still they are really great!

    Hope this helped :)

  • thank you so much you helped me with what i was going to order =)

  • i definetly agree with the eye pads i bought some fourth of july weekend they didnt even last a week the brozing powder in sunkissed (full size) is very powdery but i actuall like mine. although ive only had 1 other bronzer

  • This is a great review! I love how you color coded everything, covered so many products in just 8 minutes, and you sound so professional, like one of those infomercial salesperson. I'll definitely check out some of the stuff you recommended

  • I love the liquid eyeliner and the waterproof eyeliner pens. The pens literally go on like a marker. So easy to apply, and they really are waterproof.

  • best review I have watched. Right to the point.

  • great review ...

  • Was extremely helpful! Thank you so much!

  • **2- im limiting myself to 2(see below)**

  • Great vid, so i am getting some of the C.s.l. tins, and I am getting the frosting one, cuz i luv frosting. And im limiting myself to 3, so i need help. Considering smell, taste and color, which would u choose? :candy fix or cherry bomb?!? NE1can answer!!! THNX!!!!!

  • Thanks ! Very helpul !! =)

  • thanks! this really helped but does anyone know if the liquad eyeliner is any good?

  • I love the liquid eyeliner from e.l.f. Very good! I've only tried the black though so far.

  • Great review. Very helpful. I was hesitant to try ELF bc it's so cheap, but I may try them now. Thanks!

  • It does help a lot, thank you!! =)

  • That sounds great! =) What about the mineral make-up? Is that higher quality as well?

  • that was verrrry helpful!

    I just adooore u and love to watch ur videos as well

  • I`m just starting my make up collection, and ELF seems really appealing because I can get a lot of products for not much money. However, at the same time I don`t want a lot of low quality products. Do you think ELF would be a good way to start my collection so I would have all the basics, and then I could upgrade to higher quality products later, or do you think I should just go higher quality from the start? Thank you! =)

  • maybe just the "good quality" (in reviews) products. otherwise, invest in something higher quality that everyone loves (mac mineralize skin finish natural, paint pots....etc)

  • Yeah, I kind of figured that would be the best way to go. Thank you! =)

  • i had the same thoughts when i was just starting to use elf. everyone in the tutorials were using mac but that is totally not in my price range right now so i bought a couple of things from elf and now i want to collect them all. ive watched alot of reviews and people that use mac say its a good product. go for it and i guarantee you will like at least one product

  • Thanks! =)

  • ROFL at 6:01 I actually thought that "differentiation" sounded a bit funny too xD

    But I actually looked it up and yes it's a word :P

  • wow very helpful!!

  • thanks for the review. i am waiting on my first order to arrive now!

  • i personally love the pressed powder. i mostly use a face brush when using it

  • Thanks for review!!!

  • what color did you get on the all over cover stick because i cant choose one that might be my color they all look almost the same

  • :) i love this video! i love how you did this by taking pics of the products and just putting your voice in it (:

    i am going to do a review on all of my elf items which is alot lol and do the video like yours!

  • amazing review, the best i have seen, thank you so much, very helpfull

  • i love this review. you were so fluent with it. u made it very clear! (: nd i dnt have ANY elf but i am going to buy some. i have some at a dollar store some where near me!

  • I'm glad you did this =].

    I've always wanted to buy this stuff, I love that its soo cheap!

  • i so agree with the brightening eyeshadows palettes im african american and they are so pigmented except for the two you disliked the did not show up on me at all and were very chalky on my skin

  • gr8!!! i totally agree! and the clear super glossy lip shine sucked! but i love e.l.f. soo much cuz its soo affordable but really pretty and thers one hypershine gloss that goes on really well its a sheer red...i 4got the name but if u c it in tht sheer red color u should buy it cuz even w/ my dark skin tone it showed up!

  • thanks for such a detailed review

  • i picked the exact same super glossy lip shines.

  • i got the face brush, and the top fell off too.
