E.L.F. Cream Eyeliners in Ivory and Plum Purple (Review)

Pin It
The next part of the e.l.f. haul! this will hopefully near completion by the middle of next week. I'm excited to get this done because i have some other new things i want to share with you gals. 

ALSO i just had a huge blog melt down involving picture storage online. If any of you have a blog threw blogger, then you may know about the 1GB of storage they "allow" you online, but have to pay for anything after that.I tried to delete some photos to make room for more, but silly me did not think that they would also be removed from my blog.  So i got the notice today that i have reached my maxim capacity. But fear not! Photobucket will save the day. I replaced most photos deleted and from now on, I'm just going to have to upload via URL. Yea, it's a pain in the butt, but i love doing this to much to let some technicalities get me down. Posts mainly effected by this were Plum Freeze, and Radiation. I've fixed these posts but not to the original. Due to this dilemma, you may or may not see less pictures per post. But i hope to keep posting as many pictures as possible.I love all of you for sticking with me threw this mini disaster, even though you probably never even noticed it. Now for the review. :D


Company Description: Creates smooth lines that are defined and precise. Smudge-proof, budge-proof and water-resistant coverage for all day wear to combat against, sweat, tears and rain! Slanted Eyeliner Brush included!

What I Think: I was way more excited about these then i should have been. They're eyeliner in a jar. I got them because i wanted them to use on my water line because i've recently starting doing that. but to my disappointment, they didn't even go onto the water line. :/ they work as eye liners and bases, but just not what i really wanted

Each of these cream liners comes in a little box like that matte eye shadow along with a little angled brush
The brush is cool. Its mini, but it's angled, so it's not just, oh hey...i'm a brush...yup...i know i don't really work for this product, you figure it out. No, these brushes are included specifically for this product.
Back of box
I like square jars, so i think these jars are great. they fit perfect into drawers and are the same size as other similar e.l.f. products.

Plum Purple and Ivory with flash
First Ivory.
It's a white cream liner with a hint of metallic in it.
I was the least impressed with Ivory. It was a lot harder to pick up then Plum Purple almost like it had been dried out a little. The coverage is not entirely opaque. It seemed a little spotty to me, like it was impossible to get it to completely cover an entire area. It's very preety once you get it all smoothed out, and works well as a base.

Plum Purple
It's a very deep, very dark purple. In the wrong light it almost looks black or brown. But in the right light it's as stunning as a real plum covered in water.
Example: Wrong light
this cream liner was a lot softer then Ivory, hence the giant gash i took out of it expecting it to be harder
Example:Right light
Look how pretty it can be!
I really liked this color a lot more. It went on darker and move even. i didn't have to keep going back for product to try and achieve full coverage. It does not work on the waterline for it's life though.


Price: $3.00 at Eyes Lips Face .Com

Worth it?:It was three dollars. I was impressed by only one and i wasn't really amazed. It's worth it i guess if you just want it to be an eye liner that may or may not work depending on your color and jar you purchase. the more i think about it, the more i suspect that my Ivory was exposed to air to long and got dried out.

Will I Buy It Again?:Probably not. I'm not super thrilled with these so i'm happy i got them half off. It's an alright product, but i probably won't be hounding for more of it
