I was hesitant to pick up this foundation because I'd heard it compared to Maybelline's Dream Mousse foundation and I was never in love with how that foundation applied. Eventually curiosity got the best of me and I decided to try this and find out for myself and I am really pleasantly surprised. I honestly wouldn't compare the feel of this product to the Dream Mousse foundation, though obviously the idea behind it seems similar. The application is wonderful. The product applies evenly and is silky smooth. It doesn't crease around any lines near your eyes, and does a great job of making any of these lines fade. The coverage is very nice if you have a fairly even complexion. I imagine that anyone with any type of acne or heavy discoloration would need a good concealer, but for average skin it works great. The length of wear isn't outstanding. You definitely notice it starting to fade within 8 hours, and I'd imagine significantly less than that if you were doing anything physically exerting or if you have naturally oily skin. The packaging is beautiful and it does seem to live up to it's claims. It seems to be fairly priced for a drugstore foundation and a little goes a long way in terms of coverage.

The shape is adorable, and the scents are amazing, those are obviously the first two things about this product that grab your attention. Once you get past that the quality of the product is pretty good. It's not the most moisturizing lip balm out there by any means, but as a basic everyday balm it's really nice. It has pretty good staying power for a lip balm. I feel like you pay mostly for the packaging, since the product itself isn't terribly different from less expensive organic lip balms, but I really do like these cute little balms.

This foundation is nothing great. It gives slightly more coverage than the tinted moisturizer, but it's not outstanding. It lasts a few hours, but then I started to notice some shine, which is rare for me since I don't have oily skin. For $6 a bottle there are definitely better drugstore options.

This product works really well. It gives good coverage, helps with any dry skin and also has SPF 20 which is great. This product is also a much better size than the Essentials line version from ELF. Definitely worth a try if you're looking for an inexpensive tinted moisturizer.

I like the quality of the product and the colors but I have two major complaints about the packaging. 1) It's SO small, my blush brush barely fits at all. For only $1 I guess that isn't the end of the world, but 2) It took me about 8 minutes to figure out how to open it, and even once I realized it slid open I still sometimes have difficulty getting it to open. I prefer the Studio version, it solves all these issues.

I purchased this from the ELF website and was upset to see how small it is, I'd rather use my fingers than trying to actually conceal anything with this. I don't have an issue with any of their other brushes, but this one was a disappointment.

I bought this because it was compared to the Nars Orgasm Blush and Laguna Bronzer duo... but it's not really all that comparable. I think it gets compared mostly because of the packaging, they obviously look similar. The blush is really pretty and the same quality as the Studio Blushes, which I love, but the bronzer is WAY too dark for me - and there's no color choices.

I couldn't believe how great this product worked! It is honestly better than half of the eyelash curlers I've used and so much more affordable.

The ELF Studio line has really impressed me lately. I bought this blush in the color Candid Coral and it's quickly become one of my favorites. Love the quality, the color and the price. Definitely recommend this!

For $1 there isn't much to complain about, but I did find the balm to be a bit greasy and not very long lasting so you'll have to continuously reapply. Honestly, I'd rather spend the extra $2 and get the ELF Studio Condition Balm which I found to be much better.
