e.l.f. All Over Color Sticks

Good morning possums

Ooer it's Friday 13th. I hope this post actually publishes haha!

A while ago I picked up some of the All Over Color Sticks from e.l.f. after seeing a few people mention them. So after a bit of a Google Image search, I placed an order for three to see what all the fuss was about.


L-R: Golden Peach, Pink Lemonade, Lilac Petal

I realised when I opened these that comparisons could be made with the Eyeko fat balms - they're similar products.

e.l.f. All Over Color Sticks - 4g for £1.50 - sweet orange scent, very shimmery
Eyeko Fat Balms - 4.5g for £6.50 - gorgeous individual scents, bold colour

Swatches





As you can see, Pink Lemonade is the most pigmented colour. When I applied it on my cheeks, like I would with an Eyeko Fat Balm, I looked like a clown. Thumbs down. All three are VERY shimmery and really do not suit me. I find they look ridiculous on my lips, although I've never liked shimmery lip colour unless it's a gloss. They can be used on the eyes so I will try them over a base to see if they fare any better.

e.l.f. All Over Color Sticks retail at £1.50 for 4g of product and you can find them here. Don't forget if you comment on the e.l.f. blog you will automatically be emailed a £1.50 voucher, so you can use it to get an All Over Color Stick for free. Bargain!


Have you tried the e.l.f. All Over Color Sticks? How do you use them and apply them? Are there any others that I should try?
