E.L.F. High Definition Powder Review

I find that e.l.f. products are always hit or miss. Sometimes they are a good product for a great price and other times they fall in to the you get what you pay for. This High Definition Powder is a little off  mark for me.

I really like this mascara primer. It helps pump up the volume and length of lashes with just one coat of primer and one coat of mascara. When normally it would take multiple coats of mascara to make lashes look thicker and longer with the primer it only needed one. The primer makes my lashes feel soft even with the mascara on. Normally mascara make my lashes feel crunchy. The brush on the wand is the perfect size coating all the lashes. I"m also digging the packaging. The handle of the wand is nice and long making it easy to handle. Like all E.L.F products it’s very inexpensive at only $3, well worth the price.

I bought this concealer compact because I have trouble finding the right shade, and thought it would be great for mixing. But I was greatly disappointed in it. The concealers are extremely waxy and hard to get out of the pan with a brush and even when I used my finger to warm it up it barley came out. The colors were also poorly pigmented. When applied to the skin the concealer went straight into the cracks and fine lines on the skin, which is not a good look and makes you look older.  This concealer pallet is defiantly a regret buy and I don’t think I’ll get any use out of it.
