elf Haul 20: Reviews & Swatches

This elf haul 20 is a total score because so many newer items are finally on sale! Besides having an overwhelming amount of products to review and swatch, a lot of these items belong to special collections. Together we are going to see just what these collections are all about. I have plenty of skincare as well. If you are as curious about these products as I am, stick around because this haul will surely not disappoint.

elf Jellypop

Dew Primer

The first item in my elf haul 20 is the Jellypop Dew Primer. While the full size is sold out, you can find this travel size in the Juicy Pop Mini Kit. This primer claims to grip your makeup in place, which is the hope of any primer. It also claims to give you a dewy finish.

Juicy Gloss in Cherry Pop

Second is the Juicy Gloss in Cherry Pop. This is a red lip gloss that is super sheer. elf claims that this formula is by no means sticky, rather, it should hydrate the lips with comfortable wear. In swatching this lip gloss the formula does not feel sticky.

Flush Blush

Berry Pop

Third from the Jellypop collection are the two Flush Blushes. These are jelly blushes, and the formula appears to be the exact same as their Jelly Highlighters. You get a lot of intense shine with these. I recommend applying them with a stipple brush.

Peach Pop

Face & Eye Gloss

Fourth are the Face and Eye Glosses. These are intended to give you the glossy eyelid look that was popular a while ago, but they can also be used as a face highlight. I know from watching video reviews that these crease up horribly on the eyelids in a matter of minutes. Honestly, I cannot see myself using these and probably should not even buy them. They have a thick consistency with a ton of glitter and shimmer.

Creamsicle Pop

Ice Pop

elf The Supers

Superhydrate

Now in this elf haul 20 we are moving into The Supers collection, which is a line of four skincare products. First is Superhydrate, which is a gel moisturizer. It claims to provide deep moisturization, improve skin’s balance and elasticity, while absorbing fast. You are to massage a dime size amount onto your face and neck in the morning and evening.

Supermask

Second is Supermask, which is a gel face mask. It claims to soothe the skin, reduce redness, and support skin renewal. You are to apply it onto your clean face, let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes, and then rinse.

Supertone

Third is Supertone, which is a toner. It claims to brighten while gently exfoliating. You are to dispense the toner onto a cotton round and wipe it all over your face at night.

Superclarify

Fourth is Superclarify, which is a gel face wash with a milky white yet clear consistency. It almost seems like it needs shaken, but it does not. There are a lot of claims:

• Maintains moisture
• Tones
• Clarifies
• Prevents clogged pores
• Strengthens
• Smooths
• Washes away dirt, oil, and makeup

You are to massage it onto your wet face in circular motions, as the gel will turn to foam.

elf+ Glow

Primer Stick

Next in the elf haul 20 is the Glow collection. These products are intended to give you a dewy, glowing finish with or without the use of foundation. I have combo skin where I am oily in my T-zone and normal everywhere else. This is probably not a good collection for me, but oh well. Starting with the Primer Stick. It claims to hydrate and illuminate the skin for a lit from within gold glow. By looking at the stick, it achieves the glow with a fine gold glitter.

Radiant Moisturizer

Second is the Radiant Moisturizer. It also claims to moisturize and give a gold glow. When applied to the skin it really looks the same as the Primer Stick.

Dewy Mist

Third is the Dewy Mist. It claims to hydrate and refresh makeup by leaving a dewy glow. You should shake it well before misting.

Highlighter in Moonlight

Fourth is the Glow Highlighter in Moonlight. In my elf haul 18 I am swatching and reviewing two other shades of this highlighter, but Moonlight appears to be the best shade for my pale skin. The formula of this highlighter is so odd because it feels like a light, airy cream that you can push around with your finger. But, it applies like a powder.

elf x Nabela Noor

Liquid Lipstick in Maira Nude

We are moving onto the elf x Nabela Noor collection in this elf haul 20. Nabela Noor is a beauty influencer who is collaborating with elf to create this stunning collection. Everything from the shades, to the packaging beautiful. First is the Liquid Lipstick. Since the package and the applicator is the same as the liquid lipsticks in elf’s everyday collection, I assume this is the same formula. Nabela states the Maira Nude is a nude hue that works well with any skin tone. This is a matte finish liquid lipstick.

elf x Nabela Noor Lip Liner in Maira Nude

Second is the Lip Liner pencil also in Maira Nude. You will notice that the lip liner is more of a brown shade than the liquid lipstick. The difference in color is intentional to give you that darker around the edges look that you then fill in with the liquid lipstick. It swatches matte and the formula is smooth without tugging. This is a pencil that you sharpen.

elf x Nabela Noor Lip Liner in Maira Nude

Gleaming Loose Highlighter in Neharika Glow

Third is the Gleaming Loose Highlighter in Neharika Glow. A loose highlighter is a first for elf, and I am happy that the package design includes a lid that spins to keep the product from going everywhere. Nabela says that this shade should complement all skin tones. In swatching it I am highly disappointed. It looks like a loose, gold glitter, and not a highlighter at all.

Crease brush

Fourth, we are moving into the brushes. None of these brushes are new. They can all be found in the everyday line with the black handles and bristles. Of course, these brushes are the same quality that you expect from elf, and the pink is beautiful. I already have all of these brushes in my collection. Here is the crease brush, which is one of my favorites for applying eyeshadow in the crease.

Stipple brush

Here is the Stipple brush. I have so many elf stipple brushes in my collection, and the way this one is cut and packed with bristles is different from those that I have. By looking at brushes on elf’s website, I believe this is the same as the Domed Stipple brush. Stipple brushes are great for blending and applying cream products like blush and bronzer.

Powder brush

Next is the Powder brush, which is the same as the Pointed Powder brush. It is one of the better brushes in my collection for applying setting powder all over the face.

Flat Eyeshadow brush

Here is the Flat Eyeshadow brush. I love using this brush to apply liquid and cream eyeshadows, such as elf’s Beautifully Bare Smooth Matte Eyeshadow, and wet n wild’s various Liquid Catsuit Creme and Shimmer Eyeshadows. The size and shape makes it perfect achieve detailed eye work without making a mess.

Highlighting brush

Here is the Highlighting brush. What more can I say- it highlights the face just fine.

Metallic Clutch

The last Nabela Noor item is a Metallic Clutch. It features a magnetic closure and envelope flap. This is great for storing your items from this collection, and dare I say you can get away with carrying it as an evening clutch.

elf Flawless Concealer in Fair Rose

Now in this elf haul 20 we are moving into all of the other things I am buying that are not part of a special collection. First is the Flawless Concealer in Fair Rose. I like a good pale concealer for brightening my under eye area, but finding an appropriare shade in the drugstore can be tough. Fair Rose is definitely pale enough. I do need to try this on the face, but the swatch is very creamy and pigmented, so I say so far so good.

elf Wow Brow Gel in Brunette

Second is the Wow Brow Gel in Brunette. The applicator hints to me that this is elf’s version of Benefit’s Gimme Brow+. By looking at the product on the tiny spoolie applicator, you can clearly see that this is a fiber brow gel. Of course, this product is supposed to make your brows stay in place all day and add some tint.

elf All Day Stay Eyeshadow Primer

Third is the All Day Stay Eyeshadow Primer. I have my holy grail eyeshadow primers, so I am not fond of trying new primers and risking my eyeshadow looking crazy for a day. However, I am having some luck trying different primers, so here I am with this one. Mine definitely needs kneaded because it is dispensing with a clear oily substance, but the formula itself is a light pink. It claims to last for 24 hours with no fading or creasing.

elf Mascara & Shadow Shield

Fourth is the Mascara and Shadow Shield. This is one of those products that has been around for years and I never buy it. Finally I am saying what the heck and biting the bullet, while I doubt I will use it much. I am pleasantly surprised to report that the shield is make of a flexible silicone, and it is cut well to fit around the contours of the eye.

elf Prep & Blur Stick

Fifth in this part of the elf haul 20 is the Prep and Blur Stick. This is a primer stick that claims to blur pores, fine lines, and imperfections. I am always looking for a primer that will tackle the horrible pores on my nose at a cheap price tag. Cross your fingers for me that it works out!

elf Beautifully Bare Luminous Matte Makeup Primer

Next is the Beautifully Bare Luminous Matte Makeup Primer. If you are curious how a primer can be both luminous and matte, then you are not alone. Luminous primers typically are not the best for my combination skin, but the matte promise sounds good. This primer claims to provide a natural glow and moisturization while helping makeup last longer.

elf 18 Hit Wonders Eyeshadow Palette

Continuing on, here is the 18 Hit Wonders Eyeshadow Palette. I do not want to call it a rainbow palette, but there is a shade for everyone here. The swatches are hit and miss, with some looking great, while others are lackluster and chalky. Vibrant, the silver shade, is the most stunning shade in the palette and it blows me away. I hope that these apply with a brush on the eye better than the swatches.

elf Glow Gleam Beam Highlighting Palette in Light

Here is the Glow Gleam Beam Highlighting Palette in Light. It consists of glitter, shimmer, and metallic finishes. The swatches look good, and for once all of the shades appear to work with my skin tone.

elf Hydrating Primer Serum

Pressing on, I have three primer serums that you apply with a dropper from a glass bottle. Here is the Hydrating Primer Serum. It is a clear serum that you are to pat into the skin. it claims to hydrate, plump, and prime.

elf Glow Up Primer Serum

Here is the Glow Up Primer Serum. It is a clear serum with gold glitter. You are to massage three to five drops into your skin. It claims to hydrate with a weightless feel, and also to add moisture to the skin.

elf Blurring Primer Serum

Next is the Blurring Primer Serum. This has a thick, white formula that does not dispense well from the dropper. You need to work with this serum to get it to dispense. It claims to minimize oil, blur imperfections, all while leaving a powder-like finish. You are to pat a few drops into your skin.

elf Mini Glam Case

The last item in my elf haul 20 is the Mini Glam Case. I have no use for it. The size is probably good for holding lipstick, bandaids, medicine, etc. for travel.

At the end of this elf haul 20, there are many products to play with and see how well they work, or do not work. I am finally getting my hands into some newer collections. Some of these products I am buying for the heck of it but I know that they will not get much use. I am most excited to try the skincare, liquid lipstick, and the eyeshadow palette. Do you use any of these products? What do you think about them? Until next time, continue to let your true beauty shine.
