E.L.F Blushes Reviews and Swatches

Since I bought quite a few things from the E.L.F US website I thought it would be better to review them for you in different parts. Today I will be talking about the blushes, I got one baked blush and four of the Studio line blushes. I will be stating what each product cost in both Australia and in the US. I will be stating the retail price according to the official US E.L.F website and the Australian  E.L.F website. I did buy these while the US site was having a 50% off the Studio Line, and used hopshopgo.com to ship them to me. Read more about my post on hopshopgo.com here.

Lets start with the E.L.F Baked Blush in Passion Pink.


What they say- The soft and shimmering color of our Baked Blush creates a natural healthy glow. Baked in an oven, these blushes offer rich pigmentation for a beautiful effect. The long-lasting formula provides a gorgeous, smooth and even application. Infused with active key ingredients Jojoba, Rose, Sunflower, Apricot and Grape to nourish and hydrate the skin. Apply this shimmering color dry for sheer pigmentation, or use a damp brush or sponge for a more vibrant effect.

What I say- I wanted to get this in different colour but they were all sold out. This is a really nice product, it does give a healthy glow but is not glittery. Easy to apply and does not have a lot of fall out. This makes it very easy to blend out.

Price- USA $3.00
           Australia- not available

Weight- 6 grams

Recommended- Yes                       
          

Next up are the E.L.F  Studio line blushes.

What they say-The soft sheer texture blends into the skin for a silky finish. Designed to be worn alone or layered for more depth. Highlight your complexion with a subtle healthy glow!
 
E.L.F Studio Blush- Tickled Pink
What I say- While I tried my best to get the true colour of the blush this was the best I can do, its a tad pinky in real life. I would say this is a pinky-peach colour, a great spring/summer colour. It has the tiniest hint of shimmer but you really don't see it on the face. The texture is soft and velvety and quite pigmented.

Recommend- Yes
          
E.L.F Studio Blush- Fushia Fusion
 What I say-  A bright mauvey-pink with micro-glitter, again soft and velvety to the touch but I really don't like this as it's very shimmery and I personally don't like it, because when I apply it the shimmers go all over the place on my face. I will be giving this to a friend.

Recommend- No
         
E.L.F Studio Blush- Twinkle Pink
What I say- A peachy colour with loads of gold micro-glitters, unlike the Fushia Fusion blush the shimmers in this blush are quite nice they add a nice shine to the face and they do stay just on the cheeks.

Recommend- Yes 
          
E.L.F Studio Blush- Candid Coral
What I say- A coral colour with very fine gold shimmers, I love this blush it just adds a nice colour to the cheeks very wearable and just a colour you don't need to worry about.

Recommend- Yes

Price- USA $3.00
           Australia $9.99

 Weight- 4.75 grams

Swatches
Overall, I would recommend you try these blushes out they are cheap, if you buy in the USA, but quite pigmented, soft and velvety to the touch. These blushes have been compared to the NARS blushes but I don't own any NARS blushes so I cannot compare.   

Love,
Sakura
