Bronzer helps to give your skin a warm, luminous glow—as if you’ve spent time in the sun. They can also lightly sculpt your face. Bronzers come in cream or putty and powder form and may be matte or shimmery. Consider the size of the palette. A mini eyeshadow palette with a curated selection of shades can be less overwhelming for beginners than an 18-pan eye palette with vibrant shades that are a mix of matte, satin, and shimmer shades. Matte shades are the easiest to work with and the most suitable for daily wear which would be great for a beginner. Contour is typically a shade or two darker than your foundation or concealer. Contouring is used to create the effect of shadow and define your facial features. In this review, I will share my thoughts on the product quality, a beautiful eye makeup look I created using all the colours, and whether I recommend buying this palette. This reminds me of Wet N Wild’s Color Icon Eyeshadow Quad but the Wet N Wild one had a terrible quality, comparatively! Texture

Really a great ELF Bite Size palette if you’d like to create some colorful green looks, or even go for green smokey eyes. When choosing an eyeshadow palette that complements your skin tone, there are a few key considerations to keep in mind. Here's a guide to help you choose the right palette:They make the green in my eyes pop, and the two metallic burgundy shades really do a great job. The only letdown in this palette is the lighter shade, but if you’re going to use it to blend out the darker matte eyeshadow, it still performs quite well. I mentioned the ELF Bite Size eyeshadow palette in Rose Water in my guide to the best pink eyeshadow palettes, simply because if you’re looking for pink and mauve eyeshadows, it’s a great one to have in your makeup kit. I loved the ELF Bite Size eyeshadow palettes as soon as they were released a few years ago, so today, we’re going to be doing a little review with swatches of the marvels the super affordable Bite Size palettes are. At some point, I came across ELF palettes that the brand released for spring a few years ago called Bite-Size palettes. Start by selecting a base shade—something close to your skin tone such as pearl, beige, or peach. Use a flat eyeshadow brush and sweep this shade over your lids and up to your brow bone

The ELF Bite Size Hot Jalapeno palette is on another level, that’s the only way I can word it. I love khaki, olive, and green eyeshadows so much that it’s hard to refrain from getting all the green palettes I come across, to be honest. The brand used to have many kinds of different palettes; the most famous being the ELF rose gold eyeshadow palette, and their matte eyeshadow palette for every day. When selecting a beginner eyeshadow palette, there are a few things to consider. First, choose an eye palette that offers a range of neutral shades, as these are easier to work with. Look for a palette that includes both matte and shimmer finishes, allowing you to create different eye looks and experiment with textures. It's also helpful to choose a palette with instructions, guiding you on where to place each shade for a basic eye look.The matte shades weren’t dry or chalky. Shimmer shades didn’t have a ton of fallout. The pigments slide smoothly over your lid. e.l.f. nailed it with this formula! Awesome Wear Time This one boasts rather pink-toned eyeshadows, really just creamy tones, as the name gives away. I’ve found that all four eyeshadows in the Cream and Sugar palette really applied well, and lasted very well too.

The mattes seem to fade after 4-5 hours but the metallics save the night because they really do stay put the entire day. There is some fading when it comes to the reflection of the metallics, though! I don’t use an eye primer (because I don’t have one). ConclusionThe four eyeshadows in the ELF Rose Water palette perform really well, even the dark matte purple eyeshadow. That says a lot about the quality of this small ELF palette because purple eyeshadow is usually hard to find really pigmented. The ELF Bite Size eyeshadow palette in Acai You is my second favorite out of the whole bunch, after the Hot Jalapeno palette. I love desaturated blue eyeshadows, and the Acai You palette offers just that. The texture of the shadows are a hit and miss for me. They aren’t the most pigmented and creamiest shadows I have used but they do get the job done. Some tested my patience when I was trying to blend while the others left me impressed. The metallics are soft and reflect beautifully, and are not too stark, while the mattes made me deal with a ton of fallout. Berry Bad Shadow Colours The ELF Hot Jalapeno palette is the most magical out of the whole bunch, and I’d be lying if I didn’t say this green gold eyeshadow wasn’t the main reason I love it so much. There are all different types of face makeup to try. Depending on the look you are going for, you can achieve full coverage or sheer coverage; a dewy, shimmering or matte finish; highlighted and sculpted features; naturally flushed cheeks or high pigment cheek color. Here is a rundown of the most commonly used face makeup:

Concealer is used to brighten the dark areas of your face including under-eye circles and recessions around the mouth or nose. They also can help cover up blemishes, discoloration, redness, or scars. If you’ve been here before, you know that I’ll use any kind of rainbow eyeshadow palette before I’m caught using nude eyeshadows. It’s just not my vibe and never has been. That, in terms of green eyeshadow palettes, is a standard I did not want to get away from but I didn’t want to cash out a fifty when the full-size ELF eyeshadow palettes are a tenner at most. I usually really try to scrutinize a product to see if there’s someone it’s not going to work for. For example, would a product not be a good idea for beginners? However, I couldn’t find anything really bad about these bite-size eyeshadow products. There’s a reason they’ve gone viral and are now adorning vanities everywhere! Face Powder helps even your skin tone, absorb oil, set your makeup, and achieve flawless-looking skin. It comes in a variety of formulas, such as e.l.f. Camo Powder Foundation for buildable coverage; e.l.f. Halo Glow Setting Powder that veils the skin for a luminous finish and e.l.f.'s Prime and Stay Finishing Powder which sets makeup and keeps skin free of shine. You can also use face powder for touch-ups throughout the day.These pressed pigments are easy to work with. The pans are large enough to fit a brush on the pigment to get color, even though the eyeshadow quads are tiny. They are blendable and buildable, making them great if you want to let your inner artist out. What is the look you are trying to achieve? If you prefer a more natural everyday eye look, go for neutral palettes with soft browns, taupes and beiges. If you want an evening vibrant look, go with an eye palette with jewel tones and vibrant pigments. You’ll love how pigmented these shades are for a few dollars. All of the shades that I tried had a serious color payoff. This seems to be a theme with every bite-size eyeshadow from e.l.f. Crazy Affordable The only thing I didn’t care for was that there isn’t a purple available yet! (Purple is my favorite color.) In Conclusion While you can totally do a full look with each palette, or mix and match, sometimes having only four shades can be limiting. Not all of the palettes have a neutral shade for the crease, or a white shade to set the eyelid. Depending on how fancy you want to get with your eye look, you may supplement with other palettes. Either way, your creativity is your only limit as you can create endless looks with each palette.
