Swatches: ELF Jumbo Lip Gloss Sticks
The ELF Jumbo Lip Gloss Pencils ($2) were released a few months ago at the start of the "jumbo lip pencil" craze. These apply smoothly, have sheer-buildable pigmentation, and have a twist up applicator. These have a minty sort of smell but nothing too overboard. They're neither drying nor moisturizing on my non-sensitive lips. The wear time is on par with other jumbo lip pencils but the main issue is the shimmer that some of these contain (it's not gritty..I just prefer cremes). If you like these type of products then I think $2 is a great price for these. It's similar to other drugstore jumbo balms that are around $8.

These look extremely pretty. My favorite is Pink Umbrellas.
ReplyDeleteThat's my favorite too! Great minds think alike ;)
DeleteThe shimmer was the one thing that put me off about these... I think I'd feel too much like a little girl playing dress up again haha :)

DeleteI love it when people take the time to post swatches..so tym :) I'm learning ELF is known for that shimmer...at a certain age it can be toooo much so love not adding to my collection.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree. It's pretty difficult to find non-shimmery good quality cosmetics in the drugstore unfortunately.
