ELF Shine Eraser and Jumbo Eye-Shadow Stick-Little Miss Thing Review

ELF Shine Eraser and Jumbo Eye-Shadow Stick-Little Miss Thing

Hello all..

How are you all? I have never ever tried blotting sheets in my life but as now summer is coming up, I thought to give these a try. My skin tends to get very oily especially in summers and these sheets provide instant solution. In my US haul I picked up major stuff from ELF, got 3 eye-shadows as well. Let’s see how these little blotting sheets and the eye-shadow worked for me.

ELF ShineEraser

Price: $1.00 for 50 sheets

Product description by ELF: These amazing little sheets instantly absorb oil, minimize pores and transforms shiny skin into gorgeous matte perfection. Woven texture eradicates shine and keeps skin matte for hours. Green Tea Extract helps re-texturize skin and mask facial imperfections. Travel pack fits neatly into your purse for on-the-go touch-ups. 50 sheets included.

Directions to use: To use just gently pull out a Shine Eraser sheet from the envelope. Blot sheet in T-Zone area, and flip the sheet and blot any all other facial areas needing oil absorption. Use whenever skin needs to be mattified and refreshed.

My experience with ELF Shine Eraser:

These were the first shine erasers or blotting sheets that I was trying up so did not have anything to compare to. They come in a small thin packet which does not look fancy and is loaded with all the instructions and description. They come in a small packet which makes it easy to carry during summers and whenever your face feels oily, just blot it up with these. You get 50 sheets for 1 dollar, which is a very good number for the price. The films are very thin and feels like butter paper that we use for sketching. It has some green spots which I think are green tea extracts they were talking about.

My t-zone is normally oily and most of the oil gets accumulated on cheeks and on the nose area. I just press these sheets on the area where there is excess shine or oil and booo! It takes away all the oil and shine from the face and yes it did mattify the skin. I also touched my skin to see if all the oil was soaked up or not and yes my skin felt smooth and clean and no traces of oil could be felt on the finger. Infact I could also notice patches of oil on the blotting sheets and I could see the amount of oil and shine that was soaked up from my skin. These are very gentle to use and no itchy sensation or anything was felt; they are fragrance free too.

The oil vanished for a while and came back after 2 hours and I had to again use one. One sheet was enough for my entire face as the shine and the oil is pretty less as compared to extremely oily skinned people. However, they do not work that great over makeup, as I could see little foundation transferring on the sheet and I had to reapply my foundation to make it look even. But other than that these are amazing for people with oily skin and it costs just a dollar, so I think it is worth the money.

Pros of ELF Shine Eraser:

-Very cheap
-50 blotting sheets in a pack which is amazing compared to the price
-Comes in a super thin packet which is very handy to carry along in bags
-Does not itch or sting on the skin after using it
-It absorbs all the oil from the face in seconds and you can actually notice the oil on your blotting sheet
-It erases shine for like 2 hours and let’s your natural glow of the face bloom out
-One sheet s enough for the entire face

Cons of ELF Shine Eraser:

-Did not do anything for my pores
-The foundation also comes off a bit the time you blot it on make-up to reduce the oily look from the face
-Unavailability in India

Will I repurchase/recommend ELF shine eraser?

I would like to get them again but unfortunately these are not available here, so I would try some other brand like clean and clear or so. I would totally recommend these as they are pretty cheap and you can try them and see whether it suits you or not, definitely a must pick for summers.

My take on ELF Jumbo Eye-Shadow Stick in Little Miss Thing:

Jumbo Eye-Shadow StickLittle Miss Thing

I got three different shades from this range and got all the casual shades which can be great for a casual outing. This eye-shadow comes in a cute crayon form and is super easy to carry and has a cap too which protects the tip from breaking. The quantity is very good as compared to a 2 dollars price. The shade is a beautiful one and looks very natural when applied. It is a beautiful golden bronze shade which may suit every outfit and can also be clubbed with some other bright shade to make it look even more pretty. This shade may not suit tan and dark skin tones. It is a perfect day wear shade and will hardly be visible at night time. It has pretty shimmery finish to it which makes it look even better and do not worry the shimmers are not that visible! The texture is very creamy and soft and gets applied in moments. I just rub it on my eye lid and dab it a bit with fingers and I am done. It glides very smoothly on the eye lids and lasts for about 3 hours with an eye-shadow primer and somewhere around 1 and a half hour without a primer. It starts getting oily after a while especially if you have oily eye-lids, but the eye-shadow is a good pick if you want to try out new shades. The eye-shadow if smudged a lot will be barely seen. But overall I am liking them as of now and will use them till the time I get bored!
