e.l.f. Mineral Lip Gloss

I ordered these e.l.f. Lip Glosses in September when there was 50% off everything at e.l.f. UK. These lip glosses cost £3.00 each and I ordered them in Wild and in Au Naturale. I have been using these about a month and these are very good! I just have one complain about the shade Wild. By name I assumed that it would really be like something wild and that it would give my lips this bright color :D, but actually it doesn´t give almost any color. 

What e.l.f. says about them:

The soft and silky formula glides onto lips to create a luscious shine without feeling sticky or tacky. The sheer tint of color is the perfect hue to give you a beautiful and natural glossy look. Infused with key vitamins A & E to protect and moisturize your lips. All our mineral makeup is 100% mineral based with no parabens, no preservatives and no chemical dyes.

Directions

Apply color to lips. Wear alone or layer with another color for a unique personal blend.


Ingredients:

Mineral Oil, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Mica Silica, Capryly Glycol, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A), Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxides (CI77491, CI77492, CI77499), Manganese Violet (CI77742), Mica (CI77019), Red No.7 Lake (CI15850), Red No.27 Lake (CI45410), Red No.6 Lake (CI15850), Blue No.1 Lake (CI42090), Yellow No.5 Lake (CI19140), Yellow No.6 Lake (CI15985).

My opinion about these lip glosses. 
What I like:
- they keep my lips nicely moisturised
- gives my lips pretty shine
- perfect for everyday use in daytime
- good applicator
- convenient packaging
 - they aren´t sticky 
- lasts about 2 hours (including a cup of tea or coffee)
- don´t cost much


What I don´t like
- I would like if they lasted longer on my lips 


So in conclusion I would give these lip glosses 5 points out of 5 and I would definitely buy them again for everyday use. 




Eesti keeles ka :)


Tellisin need e.l.f.´i huuleläiked endale juba septembris kui e.l.f. UK saidil oli 50% allahindlus kõigile toodetele. Olen neid huuleläiked kasutanud nüüdseks juba kuu aega ja ma olen nendega väga rahul. Ok tooni Wild kohta võiks veidi kobised- nimelt nimetuse järgi ma oletasin (jah ma tean et oletamine ja järeldamine on minu väga halvad omadused), et tegu on erksama ja rohkem tooni andva huuleläikega, aga tegelikult on tegu üsna läbipaistva läikega, mis annabki põhiliselt ainult läiget.


Mis mulle e.l.f. mineraalidega huuleläigete juures meeldib:
- mu huuled on mõnusalt niisutatud ja ei muutu kuivaks
- annavad mu huultele ilusa läike
- sobivad igapäevaseks kasutamiseks
- väga mõnus ja mugav aplikaator, 
- mugav pakend
- ei ole vastikult kleepuvad
- püsivad huultel umbes 2 tundi (selle aja sisse jääb ka tass teed või kohvi)
- odavad


Mis mulle ei meeldi e.l.f. mineraalidega huuleläigete juures:
- võiks püsida kauem kui umbes kaks tundi


Kokkuvõttes annaksin neile huuleläigetele 5 punkti 5st ja ostaksin neid ka tulevius igapäevaseks kasutamiseks.

  1. Great review! I've tried the regular e.l.f. lip glosses and I found them to be rather sticky. Good to know the mineral ones arent!

  3. Wow - you are right! The Wild color hardly gives any color at all. I would have thought it was bright!

  5. Great review! I really am curious about these lip glosses, especially since they are mineral based. They look nice :) Very nice, but I guess lasting power can be improved. Nonetheless, they are great on you!
