I use Lily Lolo mineral foundation in porcelain, and it's non orange on me. It's 10g for £12 (vs ELF 3.4g for £3.50) so not that much different in price gram per gram. You can get a sample of the Lily Lolo one for £1.25 plus p&p, and the sample is a reasonable size (well, it's tiny actually but will last a while, a week's worth perhaps).

I put in my first ELF order yesterday, I didn't go for the foundation though as the limited number of shades made me think the palest would be too dark on me as well. I've ordered the mineral booster, shimmer mineral glow, mineral concealer in fair (not sure if this will be too orange?), tweezers, and waterproof liquid eyeliner in black, plus some Christmas gifts for my mum and sister. I'm excited, I wonder if it will come tomorrow? It's been dispatched, so maybe...

You got your stuff yet?

I'm really impressed by the eye primer. Six hours after I put my e.l.f eyeshadow on with the primer underneath, there was no creasing!

How quickly do you get creasing normally?

I usually use urban decay PP which I love and is the only thing I have found which stops the creasing. It is expensive tho, so when I run out I am happy to try a cheaper version!! I have heard good stuff about the barbara daly at tesco one too.

Which primer did you get? I thought there was more than one, may not be.

Cheers

Usually within 10 minutes! I got the regular £1.50 primer. Worked fab with the brightening eye colour quad.

Sleek now do some foundation for white skin. Might be worth checking your local Superdrug.

If any of you watch the beauty tutorials on Youtube, lots of the gurus reccomend ELF and they do many reviews on the brand.x

Personally I didn't like them. The glue was very water-y and the lashes were quite drag queenish. But I guess that's down to personal preference.

Love the brushes though. Really fantastic considering the price.

Got the Earth and Water mascara. It's actually quite good!
