Dear Lilies,
How r you beautiful? Hope life is treating you good. Well last week I just received the big order from E.L.F. Pakistan. You can read the details here.
Since than I was unable to do a review on their products, due to some different issues. Anyway, at last here is pictorial review of their products. (sorry for this long post) :)
I tried to take pictures step by step so that I can explain you the product feedback accordingly. J
Here is my bare face, you can notice the scars on my face, first product I have selected from E.L.F. Pakistan is:
1-All Over Cover Stick in Honey 3202.
What elf Claim:
· Smoothes & protects skin while camouflaging problem facial areas
· Full coverage under eye and facial spot concelear
· Infused with active skin polymers
· Smooth, flawless application
· Will not crease when blended properly with e.lf. professional blending brush
Safe, Gentle Formula
Direction: Twist stick and apply liberally to face, eyes, and/or lips.
Tips: for best results, use daily with Tinted moisturizer SPF 15 and Clarifying pressed powder.
My Experience:
I am loving this product as I used it with brush and I it even my skin and hide my spots. Well when I open it, I just little bit surprise because its smells like citrus, floral, lemon (just like normally we just car air fresheners type) quite yummy. It gives a light – medium coverage. I simply love it and definitely buy again.
2- e.l.f. Clarifying Pressed Powder:
I selected Rosy Beige 1307, it’s a warm beige color, exactly match with my skin tone.
What elf Claim:
· Absorbs excess oil on contact
· Helps treat & prevent breakouts
· Skin looks fresh and healthy
Safe, Gentle Formula
Direction: Apply liberally as often as needed.
My Experience:
They added a sponge which is very cute but sorry not sufficient to apply the powder on my face, so use my own sponge to apply this pressed power. It does not have any smell/fragrance, which is good. It gives a normal finish. But it works good with base or and All over cover stick very firmly. You can see the difference in pic it fixes the All Over Cover Stick in a nicely way but other areas its effect is normal. Its lasting power is more than 4 hours (on base/foundation)…amazing na. Yes I buy it again. J
3- e.l.f. Natural Radiance Blusher – Flushed 2304:
Its Hot pink color
What elf Claim:

· Contours cheek bones
Safe, Gentle Formula
Direction: Gently place fingertip into bottom groove and pull, sliding compartment open. To Apply: Brush gently over powder, tap excess off brush and blend into apples of cheek.
My Experience:
I love this color. It gives a very warm pinkish finish with hint of silver shimmer. You just need 2-3 strokes for a good result. It does not have any smell/fragrance, which is good. :(. Sad pic is not clear. Strongly Recommend. Yes I buy it again. J
4- e.l.f. Eyelid Primer – Sheer 7501:
It is a natural Sheer color
What elf Claim:
· Preps your eyelid for smoother, longer-lasting, crease-proof eye shadow
· The ultra sheer, nude color works to increase eye color longevity
· Lightweight liquid formula quickly absorbs into skin for comfortable wear
Safe, Gentle Formula
Direction: Apply a thin coat to the eyelid and blend in. allow formula to dry befoe applying eyeshadow.
My Experience:
Product is good and YES it works good with eye shadows. I still don’t understand the smell, either its grease or the smell u feel in expired product :O. if you can bare such kind of smell do try this product.
Elf, kindly makes it without smell or check out the expiry dates of your product. Please…
5- e.l.f. Brightening Eye Color – Punk Funk 2015:
This quad is having beautiful colors.
Pink = (pure pink with hint of silver shimmer) the most beautiful & strong color in this quad.
Purple = (typical purple with little shimmer)
Blue = (similar Robin Blue color with little shimmer)
Milky white = little shimmer
What elf Claim:
· Long lasting, easy blending color
· Instantly brightens and defines
· Eyes look fresh and wide awake
Safe, Gentle Formula
Direction: Apply shadow to upper eyelid, blending in to achieve desired effect.
My Experience:
Quad contains two sided small applicator and a small sleek mirror as well. J The colors are lovely. Easy to apply, enhance eyes and gives a fresh look, but powders are very chalky and remove easily. You must need eyelid primer for a better result. Its good for daily wear. Yes I buy other colors.
6- e.l.f. Shimmer Pencil (Sharpener included) – Twinkle Teal 7607:
What elf Claim:
· Instantly brighten your eye with the shimmering metallic liner that glides on smoothly without tugging the delicate eye area.

My Experience:
The color is super lovely. Lead is very smooth. Easy to apply, enhance eyes and gives a fresh look. Texture is very strong. I applied this on my lower lash and outer corner of upper lash ( just to make dramatic eye effect) and also want to try eyeliner. I strongly recommend. Yes, I buy its other colors too. J
7- e.l.f. Liquid Eyeliner – Midnight 4204:
What elf Claim:
· Smudge-proof liquid liner
· Fine tip applicator creates easily defined and precise lines
· Long wear, luminous color
Safe, Gentle Formula
Direction: begin at the inner corner of the eye along the lash line and work outwards. Position applicator tip close to the lash roots and in a gentle fluid movement brush color along the natural curve of your lash line.
My Experience:
It’s a dark ink blue color with black effect. I aint a dip liner person but personally I like it the liquid is thin and application is very easy with the tip. If you are a dip liner lover do try this. J
8- e.l.f. Lengthening & Defining Mascara – Black 1411:
What elf Claim:

My Experience:
I simply love this mascara, its result is amazing. It really defining and lengthening eyelashes, without giving you heavy feel. Like its sleek shape. But again I don’t understand its smell.. :O Anyways, I love it so can tolerate its smell as well and defiantly buy this sleek lovely mascara again. J

Its natural nude pink color – may enhance your original lip color.
What elf Claim:

Direction: Twist bottom to activate color. Apply floss alone or on top of desired lip color..
My Experience:
For application you need to twist the bottom knob may 3-4 times than liquid appeared on the brush and you apply it on you lip. Do it patiently. Its application brush is good and easy to apply the gloss on your lippies. First time when u apply the gloss on your lips you feel that it comes up like Jelly :O but please stay cool and apply that jelly gently on your lips which automatically fill your lips like gloss. Its smells like cinnamon and little bit minty. Long lasting, impressed with its staying power, a smooth and little layer stay on your lips like Vaseline to smoother your lips. Yes, I buy it again. J
EXTRA: as I am a Kajal girl so I put Oriflame Kajal in my water line to enhance my eyes.
Swatches: All over stick, blusher, liner, eyepencil, lipgolss, eyelid primer,eyeshadows
Moral of the Story:
I like their packaging
They mentioned the how to use the product, Tips, warning, ingredients etc. on the back of each product. It may help out the one who don’t know how to use the product.
Products are handy and you can easily put a lot of things in your small vanity bag due to the product size.
One thing keeps it in your mind its cost you only Rs. 170/- each and made in China so these products are better than other china brands or the fake china real brand.
Manufacturing and Expiry date is missing.
Overall rating 8/10.
If you ask me to pick my favorite (quality wise) than I definitely pick product on daily basis Blusher & Lipgloss, and for extra look All over cover stick, Shimmer pencil, and Mascara. \m/and here is a Final Product: The Elf Girl....lolzzzz
I hope this detailed and long post will help you out.
PS: I am not associated with this company/brand, i purchased all products by myself and give honest reviews. Likes and dislikes always based on individuales personality or taste. :)
Love you all,
Fakhra
Life is beautiful, live it with full of passion J
