ELF Beauty Book Smokey Eye Edition
Hi Dolls. As previously mentioned, I decided to do a mini review on the Elf Smokey Eye Beauty Book. I'm sure you've see these Beauty Books around; there are eyes, blush, and lips ones to choose from. I purchased this book for $8.99.

Before I go any further, I must say I was in the business of turning my nose up at all ELF products before this palette. I just couldn't be bothered to give $2 eyeliner and $4 blush any serious consideration ... the cheap price point completely turned me off.
Well, was I wrong... I love this palette! I was so surprised at the pigmentation ... one swipe of my brush on the shadows produced strong opaque color.
Swatches of all the colors (no names):

^These are all one, light swish of the brush on my skin. (super pigmented)^
Here is the Holiday look I created with some of be colors. It's a look that would work well at a Christmas party, or for NYE. Smokey with silvers:

And the colors I used can be seen as follows:
I apologize for the poor lighting ... I hate night time lighting:
Pros:
Amazing pigmentation
Nice assortment to create different looks
Cons:
Produces a LOT of fall out. Apply shadow before concealer and foundation, this shadow was everywhere!
Rating:
4/5
