New Beauty Items- E.L.F. & Ulta Haul


I picked up some products from Ulta and e.l.f. and I wanted to give you a run down of everything I bought. Let's begin with my Ulta package:

The first 3 things I purchased from Ulta are these Tarte HIgh Performance Natural Lipsergent Lip Tints.  The smell of these tints are very similar to the Revlon Lip Tints. It's a very minty smell, and I love that about lip products. so I've so excited to try these out! During this season (winter) my lips tend to get chapped and dry.But since these have Vitamin C, Jojoba and soybean ingredients, I'm hoping that these are good at preventing that while adding some color!
The colors I choose are (from left to right) Enchanted, Elite, Moody.


LORAC LUXE 8 HOUR WEAR LIPSTICK
I also purchased more lip products and decided to get these two Lorac Lux 8 hour Lipsticks.

I decided on these 2 colors, True Red and Orchid. The packaging reminds me of MAC's Pro Long wear lipsticks and they have very similar smells as well!

After swatching I found that the True red (left) is more on the orange-red side. And the Orchid was pretty true. Overall, I think they both look gorgeous swatched.

Now onto my e.l.f haul. For the most part, e.l.f. items are pretty affordable. But I noticed after searching the site this time around that there are $6 items. A few of which I bought during this haul. One of the great deals I found was this 11 piece brush set that was on sale for $2.50 . They always have great promotions on the site and although I didn't need new brushes I thought this was too good to pass up! I plan on adding this to my giveaways!

From left to right I have the HD Flawless Foundation, HD Mattifying Cream Foundation (in color Buff & Sand) and the HD Lifting Concealer (in light).

I previously purchased the foundation in Buff but I found that it was too dark. So when I was placing this order online, I got the lighter shade from the website in sand, I think I may have to mix them to get the right color for me.
(I currently have a review on the Cream Foundation and Concealer watch it here.) 

I wanted to try the e.l.f Lip Definer & Shaper that defines your lips to make them look more full. It's a two sided lip liner with a highlight and a jumbo liner in a neutral mauve color.
It was disappointing to find that the cap wouldn't stay on but other than that I really liked the color on the define side. Instead of on my lips, I would use the lighter side of the pencil in the inner tear ducts to highlight my eyes.



I saw this Daily moister stick  on the site and it was something that looked interesting. I've never seen anything similar to this so I was curious and decided to give it a shot. The consistency of this feels more like a gel than a cream or a lotion.

The stick is enriched with anti-aging, anti-oxidants, grape, coco, shea, avocado, macadamia, aloe and camomile. Although it has all of those ingredients in this stick, I was left feeling indifferent about the sent, because I feel like it was fragrance free.

I plan on trying all of these item's out and sharing my reviews and thoughts on these products on my Channel soon. Make sure to watch the full Haul :
