e.l.f Shimmering Facial Whip

I'm obsessed with highlighting so I grabbed all three of these! I've been using golden peach and haven't tried the other two, so golden peach is what I am reviewing.

These come in little squeezey tubes so they are slightly difficult to get out. What I mean is that it's a little hard to not get too much - you definitely don't want to be squeezing these too hard or you will end up looking like you were painted in them haha :p

I applied this to where I usually do - my cheekbones, temple, forehead and cuspids bow. What I found was that the formula was a teeny bit thick so had to be worked into your skin. I used both a brush and my fingers and found that using my fingers gave a better more natural result.

This colour looked really natural and pretty on my skin. I have yellow undertones so this worked really well for me.

As you only need a small amount, this is going to last me ages and it's one of those items I will take with me when I travel because if it gets lost or broken it doesn't matter so much as it was so cheap.

I found the pigmentation slightly intense so I'd suggest only using a small amount first and then building it up to how shimmery you like to be :)

I also used this over the top of lipstick to give my lips a nice shimmer and it worked really well for that too (I was actually asked what lipstick I was wearing because my friend loved how it looked). I love products that have more than one use!

Lastly, you could get away with blending a little of this with your foundation or bb cream, to give a luminous glow. I did this as well and really loved how fresh it made my skin look. Just be careful to use only a small amount.

Overall this was a steal for the price. It's not as creamy or easy to use as my Watts Up from Benefit, but then it is less than 3/4 of the price too...

I totally recommend this to anyone. ELF really seems to prove you don't need to spend a lot of $$ on products to get decent results, and this is no exception.

You rarely fail me elf, this time is no exception. $3 for this product and it's lovely. Suuuper pretty colour. Smells delicious and all round is a great product. I haven't actually tried it as anything other than a cheek bone highlight, so will definitely give it a try in other ways!

This small lovely tube used to be my favourite. It is really easy to use and create great shimmering effects. I used it for highlighting (my skin was more tanned at that time) as well and it worked just fine. I find it works better with a brush but my friend just uses her hand. It does not stay very long on my skin (prob. mine is oily/combination).

I purchased one of these off iHerb.com for a few dollars. First, I must say that I am OBSESSED with highlighters. I thought a good starting point with the ELF ones was to go with the colour 'Spotlight' as it is a pearly white one and I am quite pale.

First impression was that the tube was quite small and I personally think the little nozzle is too small of an opening, but the product is lovely and thick and creamy, so much so that you would only need a tiny amount anyway!

It smells lovely, kind of like a sweet candy (personally there is nothing worse than a liquid highlighter that smells bad). The coverage is good, though the shine content wasn't as much as I would have liked.

I am keen to try more of these in other colours as they are soooo cheap to purchase, but in saying that, I do still have other highlighters I prefer more. I am more of a powder highlight girl, but I believe everyone needs at least one liquid for a dewy look!

This is so inexpensive, so I thought I would pick one up.

I chose the colour Pink Lemonade, it is so much more pigmented than I thought it would be. You only need the tiniest amount to get a nice shimmery pink glow.

It blends out so easily, and looks wonderful.

It lasts all day, with no wear.

This smells so yummy too. Great buy for $3!

I was really nervous about trying this as it has such mixed reviews. But it was $3 at kmart so why not! I was actually really pleasantly surprised. The stickyness is not that big of deal, the warmth of your finger blends the product out fine. It provides such a nice sheen, i like to use it on my cheekbones, nose and occasionally my cupids bow, and lasts all day.

I really like this product especially if I'm going for a dewy look. Its really nice and bright and pretty. My only complaint is that its quite hard to apply. Can be quite stiff and sticky and hard to blend

I love this highlighter, has a nice creamy texture and goes on smooth, This does have a big shimmer factor which im not a huge fan of but this one is a nice non over the top product. I paid $3 from iherb or im sure they retail for $5 at kmart. Cute wee pink bottle and easy to use tip, this makes a staple highlighter in any ones beauty kit.

After seeing the amazing reviews on BR, and the tiny price of this product, it was a no brainer to purchase the ELF facial whip. I purchased this off iherb and chose the colour persimmon as I thought this would be a better choice for my darker skin tone.

The product is actually really small, like tiny, and can be measured by the length of my pinkie. It comes in plastic tube, that is see-through with a white lid. It has a nozzle so it’s easy to get just the right amount of product out, and that’s good because you don’t need much. The colour was different to what the image online showed, but I still thought this product would be a decent match for my skin tone.

The product itself is purple (for the Persimmon shade), although many other colours of available, and the product has a shimmery sheen to it! It has a slightly thick consistency, and is every so slightly sticky, but really easy to get out of the tube. I dabbed this on the areas I want to highlight, and trust me when I say less is more. However, because of the colour/ shade choice I chose for this, the areas I wanted to highlight were also given a slight pink pigmentation which was more intense than I thought it would be, even when I blended it out. However, I still can appreciate the way this product highlights and would consider trying this product again, but would choose a lighter, or even the white(clear) shade, and this would actually be better than the more pigmented ones I believe, but of course that depends on what effects you want from this product.

For the price, this product is decent. Yes it smaller than expected, but a little goes a long way and it is so affordable!!

After having a great experience trying and buying my first elf product, a lip colour I decided it was time to add another elf product to my collection.

I really wanted to purchase a highlighter, and after reading reviews that this was a dupe for the benefit high beam I was sold- this quickly got added to my I herb cart.

The packaging is simple, yet sleek. Although it's a very affordable product I do like the look of it's packaging. Although small it will last ages as you only need a tiny amount.

The consistency is quite thick, so I only use a few dabs over my cheek area to get a lovely, pinkish glow. I love how it highlights my skin, without looking too much.

I am impressed with this highlighter and would definitely recommend.
