elf 8.5 (Rich Neutral Warm) Halo Glow Liquid Filter Review & Swatches

elf 8.5 (Rich Neutral Warm) Halo Glow Liquid Filter

8.5 (Rich Neutral Warm)

elf 8 5 (Rich Neutral Warm) Halo Glow Liquid Filter ($14.00 for 1.06 oz.) is a dark brown with subtle, warm undertones and fine pearl throughout that gave it a moderately dewy, pearlescent sheen.

  • Sheer to semi-sheer, buildable coverage
  • Lightweight, fluid, spreadable without being too runny or too thick
  • Dewy finish so never fully set
  • Applied well on bare skin, mixed with foundation, or on top of foundation (no lifting)
  • Long-wearing (8 hours before fading noticeably as standalone highlighter)

Formula Overview

$14.00/1.06 oz. - $13.21 Per Ounce

The formula is billed as a "multi-purpose, liquid glow booster" that gives a "soft-focus" filter. It can be used on its own, over or under makeup, mixed with foundation, or as a standalone highlighter. It lived up to its claims, was easy to use, and didn't impede the wear of products I paired it with.

It worked to add all-over radiance when applied as a sheer layer over bare skin. I agree with the brand's recommendation to apply it all over with a sponge, as this ensured a very even, hydrated application that allowed me to build up the level of luminosity. It mixed well with thinner and thicker, sheerer and fuller coverage foundations without shortening their longevity or making them hard to apply.

As a standalone highlighter, they applied well with fingertips or brushes, though I found the easiest way to ensure over-application (that doe-foot is huge!) was to tap a bit on the back of my hand, then use a fingertip or stippling brush to apply to the high points of my face. I didn't have any issues with the formula lifting up base products.

It is very comparable to Charlotte Tilbury's Hollywood Flawless Filter (which also has several other similar competitors on the market), though I'd say the elf version has less of a fluid, thin feel. I think this helped it work better with thinner foundations as well as thicker, higher coverage formulations, and I didn't feel like it made anything better or worse--neutral--when used on its own or applied on the skin. At most, a little went a bit further as far as radiance and coverage went, than HFF.

ColourPop That's Taupe Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

That's Taupe Colour Pop That’s Taupe 9-Pan Pressed Powder Palette ($14.00 for 0.30 oz.) is a new, nine-pan palette that is taupe-themed. It includes five matte eyeshadows, three shimmer eyeshadows, and one Super Shock Shadow (Slated). The matte eyeshadows were fairly smooth and velvety, blendable, and easy to work with, while the shimmers were so-so. I found the shimmers to be drier and more prone to fallout and lacking shine unless applied with a dampened brush (which wasn’t always the case with ColourPop’s shimmer formula).
