ELF Cosmetics Beauty Book (Neutral Eye Edition)

Hello everyone,
If you have seen my post from earlier today, you will know that I recently recieved an order from ELF Cosmetics. As part of a Jublilee Weekend offer here in the UK, I recieved a "Mystery Bag", which included this "Beauty Book" - a pallet of 12 eyeshadows, an eyeliner and an eyeshadow applicator. I recieved the "Natural Eye Edition", but also available are "Sparkle Eyes", "Eye Brights", "Smokey Eye", "Glitter Eye", "Everyday Eye", "Natural Eye" and "Smoky Eye".

I have made a couple of orders with ELF recently and I have been really impressed with everything I have recieved and this is no different.

I think that this pallet comes with a really good range of shades to create a natural looking eye. I am not a fan of bright eyeshadows so I am really glad that I recieved this pallet rather than a brighter one. The shades all blend quite easily and most of them have really good pigmentation. I know you can't really see the light shades on the swatch picture, but I had to use paper rather than my hand etc because I'm actually going out in a minute and I don't have time to scrub my hands before I leave!

Overall, I really do think that this is worth the £6.00 RRP. I know that I recieved this for free as a gift for placing an order with ELF, but I would definately have been happy with it if I had paid £6.00.

Beauty Books are available from ELF here

    1. They're mainly shimmery, the only matte ones are the 3rd from left on the bottom row and the far right one on the middle row :) x
