xoxoyana asked: What do you think about Elf Cosmetics?? Are they quality??

I like e.l.f Cosmetics, but I think you definitely get what you pay for at times. I do think it’s great that they are so affordable, you can try things out and if they don’t work out it doesn’t seems as bad because you didn’t waste much money :]

There are things that I purchase from e.l.f. consistently. I use their eyeliners, both liquid and gel. I also purchase their makeup wipes and setting spray.

I’m pretty particular about my brushes, I have purchased some from e.l.f., but they’ve all shed like crazy and some have actually fallen apart and I’m not rough on my brushes.

My general philosophy is that you should invest in your tools, i.e. brushes. Better brushes are going to make even the cheapest makeup apply better.

I’d say, if there is something from e.l.f. that you want to try, go for it. It’s a pretty low investment :]

aprilchiu asked: How can i have that fresh natural make up?

For natural makeup…less is more.

When I want a really natural, but pretty look I go for the following:

Foundation: MAC Face & Body. I LOVE this foundation. It gives a very natural finish, but is very buildable as well. When I’m applying it I use a I use a stippling brush which will help diffuse the foundation as well.

Eye Makeup: When it comes to natural eye makeup, I stick with mascara and eye liner only.

Cheeks: I just a light blush to help bring some dimension and color to my face.

Lips: I just use a lip gloss that’s very similar to my natural lip shade.

Hopefully this helps!
