e.l.f. All Over Color Stick: Golden Peach

If you ask me, they shouldn't be calling this an all over COLOR stick. It's more like an all over SHIMMER stick.

Price: P129.00
Location Bought: Watsons SM Megamall
Approximate Date Bought: mid 2010


Packaging: Simple simple simple. I like it. And the cap isn't loose like Nichido's multiple sticks. If my older AOCS in Pink Lemonade is any indication tho, the ELF label tends to rub off over time.

Color and Pigmentation: Golden Peach is colored exactly as its name implies. On my hand it has a very nice golden, almost iridiscent shimmer. Its pigmentation seems to be pretty strong, because the hand swatch looks a lot like the product's color in the tube.

Formulation: Golden Peach feels different on my hand and on my face. It feels light on the former, but it's rather sticky on the latter. Like most ELF products that come in twist up tubes, this AOCS smells like sweetened oranges. Some people don't like that, but I do.

In Action: Golden Peach doesn't do much for me. It just seems like I sprayed microglitter onto my face. Maybe if my facial skintone weren't so close to it, the pretty color that showed up on my hand swatch would have been more obvious.

Because of its stickiness though, I sometimes use it as a base for my lighter pigmented blushes, like this one.

Also, please answer the new poll I put in my sidebar? I'd love to know what you guys think so I can improve. Thank you! ♥

  6. I love this product.:P But I don't use it as an all over stick. I use it as a highlighter. I apply it on my nose bridge and on apples of my cheeks. If blended well on the skin, it somehow gives a certain glow especially at night time. I think this is great when you go out parties and you want to accentuate your cheekbones and nose. Thanks for sharing btw. :)
