Elf Studio Lipstain Review

Review of Fame (with a little bit of shame)

Studio Lip Stain in Lucky Lady

Elf

$3.00

http://www.eyeslipsface.com/studio/lips/gloss/lip_stain

Category: Affordable

Intended for: Lips

Texture: Matte comes with a gloss for glossy look

Pigmentation: Average

Dupe For: Comparable to Limecrime Velvetines (which is a plus because you don’t have to pay 20 dollars to the shady company)

Recommended For: Anyone (with perfectly symmetrical lips that is)

Likes: Matte finish, ease of application

Dislikes: Couldn’t use gloss because applicator broke off in tube, not opaque enough to use if you have to ‘shape’ your lips

Versatility: Can be worn for any occasion in many different shades, can be worn all day while eating, drinking, etc. without having to reapply

Ease of Application: Very simple to apply but as previously mentioned, it’s not opaque enough to reshape your lips with the stain

In Conclusion: I like this product and for three dollars, the bads are absolutely worth it. It was a bit of a letdown that the gloss is now unusable, but I have other glosses I can put on over it. I’ve ordered this same product in another color and we will see if I’m more thoroughly pleased with that one.

Elf Matte Lip Color Review

Review of Fame

Matte Lip Color in Praline

elf

$3.00

http://www.eyeslipsface.com/studio/lips/lip_stick/matte_lip_color

Category: Affordable (most elf products range from $1-6)

Intended for: Lips

Texture: Matte

Pigmentation: Opaque

Recommended For: Any skin type

Likes: Smooth application, opacity, more control with the pencil style applicator than a lipstick tube

Dislikes: Difficult to get “perfect application” with brush, color on the package isn’t true to color on the lips.

Versatility: Fairly versatile, depending on your attitude. The praline color is definitely a fall color only, but the other colors may work better for other seasons/occasions.

Ease of Application: Glides on easily like a lip balm

In Conclusion: It does transfer from the lips easily, which is a negative, but on the opposite it’s moisturizing which is rare for a lip color. It’s lasts a couple of hours before I need to reapply, and the amount I needed to reapply is very little. Would I buy it again? Of course! In fact, I already have. Elf is having an online sale today 50% off of all products. I couldn’t help myself!
