If this is what terrible base makeup looks like then I’m straight up screwed.
Why could I literally see nothing wrong with that base? 😂
hahah someone else said this! i think i'm just sooo picky with bases tbh 😂
@@stephanietoms omg you replied
brb fangirling rn! 😘
@@stephanietoms yes you are snd wrong about Elf. Your very dramatic
@@debrafirestone861 why the hate lol, just don't say anything
@@debrafirestone861 wow calm down haha
Steph talking about her brows honestly has me nearly wetting myself, she's honestly just so funny and one of the most down to earth youtuber out there💜
The tangle teaser comment though 🤣
@@leannee4260 I know😂 she's honestly so funny!! I would kill for eyebrows like stephs tbh😍
Does anyone remember when E.L.F used to be insanely cheap lmao? Was so shocked seeing the prices of some of these items, what happened
omg YESSS haha! i feel like everything is going up in price these days!
Omg yes! I just looked up the prices for the cc cream where I am and it’s $35 Australian!😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
I'm Gen X so to me Elf is like the "new Wet n Wild" lol but I've always thought Elf was overpriced for quality and overhyped for pricing smh. Here in the US I find it at the Dollar Tree often and Big Lots even has a dedicated Elf display lol. Just like Wet n Wild.. I'll only pick it up at Dollar Tree for $1 😬
@@kyky8862 I'm in Tassie and Kmart stock elf and I've watched the price escalation since tt vibed it up, purchased a few things and wasn't sure of the hype🤷♀️🤷♀️🤔
Yes pretty sure the prices have slowly increased? I remember some of the products being cheaper x
I legit see no issue with that base. Obviously you’re the pro but I think personally you look amazing. It looks nice and healthy, glowy from where I’m sitting💕
ahhh thank you!! i think i've realised recently that i'm just SO bloody picky with bases hahah 😂 i think i'm lucky because my skin is generally pretty good so when it doesn't meet my expactations i'm like WAAA hahah xx
@@stephanietoms kinda shook that u replied lol💕!! Yeah it’s whatever you’re comfortable with but from an outside perspective your makeup always looks gorgeous and I’m jealous hahah xx
Honestly the best products I've tried from Elf were the putty primers, the primer infused blush and bronzer, the chocolate mint bite-size palette from the mint melt collection, and the liquid glitter eyeshadows! 👍🏻
I swear it’s cause you’re hungover! Any time I try and do my makeup after drinking the night before it looks sooooo dry. I would definitely try them again!
Every time i've ever tried the "spray the brush with setting spray" technique with eyeshadow, it turns into a chunky curdled mess that slides off my eyelids within an hour.
My hooded eyes say, yep. Same. I never have luck spraying the brush. It looks terrible on me.
Superdrug has a range called trichology for scalp problems like eczema, psoriasis, general dandruff etc and the rebalancing tonic is a game changer. You apply it to wet hair and leave it in and it makes such a difference to psoriasis, especially round the hairline!
ahh thanks for this tip i have the same problem, so I will try it out. ☺️ I hope it will help me thanks in advance.
Feel like you have lighting that is TOO good because the base looks flawless. Love elf but didn’t get along with the concealer. Love this vid 💕💕💕
Hey Steph, absolutely love you, your just so natural in all your vidoes, and your always entertaining to watch! 🤗 Even though these products didn't really work out like you wanted the end look was still really beautiful 💖 thanks for sharing this with us
The halo glow powder is the best setting powder I’ve ever tried. I’ve got dry skin and I’ve been through many tubs of it. I think you need to try it again over your favourite foundation. 💕
The halo glos doesn't like my skin at all. I wanted to love it so bad, but my face turns into a cakey mess inside of 2 hours. But everyone I hear mention it absolutely loves it..
@@LishaMaria2009 I’m so sorry it doesn’t work for you. Do bare in mind that everyone preps skin differently and I do feel it makes a big difference? And also what foundation you are using too 💕
I have the camo cc cream and I don’t love it by itself, however, I mixed it with a different foundation that was too oily for me and I absolutely love the combo. Lasts all day and looks amazing 😊❤️
I love the hydrating concealer as a foundation! I have super dry skin but it looks great!
honestly the face powder pallette looks real good! Also I have to say Ive never had problems with the notifications, I always get one when you post!
My notifications are back !!! I’m soooo happy !! I love seeing that you have posted ❤️
omg YAYYYY! i think whatever we're doing is starting to work haha. i'm having a meeting with youtube soon though to find out what's going on! thanks for being here friend xxxx
@@stephanietoms I will forever be here I’m so thankful for your videos and I’m so happy it’s starting to work ❤️
Nice to see you bk Steph wud lv to c more of u 💖
Literally obsessed with the elf hydrating camo concealer and their other camo concealer
I got my notification. Can't wait to watch the video!
Edit: I can't use the concealer. I'm 51 and it makes me look like I am 101. I do like the powder but I use it very sparingly. I'm trying out the blush and bronzer cream. I tried the liquid glitter once. Nope. Not only did I have lots of fallout but again and made my eyes look worse. I use the other mini eyeshadow and do my eyes first. I have not tried the mint one but I've seen reviews that say it is not the same quality as the regular mini's. Most of the other stuff I have not tried so I can't give an opinion on it. But you tried! I think you had the same experience as a lot of people. Hope you have gotten rid of your hangover! Love your videos! 💓💓💓
Happy Tuesday Steph, I think that the cc cream looked fantastic, but you could see when you put the concealer on, it start d to look dry. Love the vid 🥰
I had the exact same problem with the foundation. It didn't stick to my nose and highlighted dry patches I never knew I had!
Been really enjoying ELF skincare though. Particularly the cleansing balm and face wash x
I'm iffy about elf products as well, I do however love their hydrate concealer. And it's affordable, BUT again I'm matte girl but love a dewy look that looks hydrating not dry and caked. And Steph loves her dewy hydrate look.💋 Love the review 🙂
Hey Stef. I love your personality your are extremely entertaining and you put out some fantastic videos 😍❤
you never make any mistakes w makeup, you can pull of anything x
I got my notifications 🙌🏻
Can't wait to watch this xx
New sponge day is so exciting 🤣 I even get all happy about a new washing up sponge
If you love the minty green colours, colour pops mint to be pallet is the best. One of my favourites! You need to try it 💚
You did well to save it! I would have took a hissy fit washed my face and never spoke of the video 😂 so good for you for keeping it real and embracing when things don’t go to plan
It looks fine steph
I’m late watching this, but the Amika reset shampoo is good for the scalp. Because it clears any product from your skin. Apple cider vinegar can help too, if it’s itching.
Or apply aloe Vera, put it in over night and wash your hair in the morning xx
You look greaaattt!!! Love the blush!
I use scent, colour and fragrance free shampoo and conditioner. I also use a shampoo scrub when my scalp is OK it helps keep at bay, but make sure the scrub is good for sensitive scalps. Hope it helps. I'm having issues at the moment too xxx
The putty bronzer is incredible, I definitely recommend it. I use it everyday, it blends like an absolute dream
My favorite elf products hands down are the brow gel love love for a natural look, and the moisturizing clicky concealer that's like the YSL one.
I LIVE for your vids Steph xx
Steph! 😱 I get a notification of your video but it doesn’t show up on the feed even when i refresh 😒 stupid RUclips!
Love you so much & even with bad makeup you always look gorgeous 🥺🌸
Your skin looks good! even close ups (: I have texture on my face and I’d love my skin to look like that with foundation lol
Try alphosyl medicated two in one shampoo ! It's the only thing that works for my psoriasis xxxx
I actually like the makeup as a whole idea. Like on camera it looks really good! Maybe with your fave products. But I like that look! 😍
I use the camo CC cream as a concealer, haha! I finish my makeup with morphe settingspray, and it looks gorgeous!!
I love ELF so I’m worried now lol, but I bought 2 shades of the CC cream and ones too light and ones too orange, same with the matte camo concealers 😪
Will you be doing any more of your vlogs? Loved watching them x
yesssss finally! i'm gonna be picking up the camera again tomorrow to get started with another vlog! lots to catch up on!xx
Mixing the camo cc cream with some moisturizer is how I apply it. It doesn't look near as cakey and I lightly set it with powder and setting spray. I have oily skin and it works well.
I tried that foundation and I think it was too heavy for my skin type as I looked like I was shedding within 20mins of putting my base on. I'm now in love with a random No.7 one that I bought on a whim x
I have oily to normal skin and that CC cream looks caked and dry on me! BUT try the camp concealer as a foundation. I love how it looks on my face. Medium coverage and a nice glow. Doesn’t work under my eyes though.
Hi steph another fab video love your honesty your the best ❤💖♥
I love the halo glow powder BUT not for my under eyes. On the rest of the face it looks lovely 💖
try that loose powder with base products that you love because the powder is actually really nice :)
Hun coconut oil for psoriasis is amazing I have it on my scalp and it's the only thing that helps xx
Omg hii I love your videos and and you lots you just made my day with this video xx
ellie-rose!! thank youuuuu
tried the putty bronzer in bronzed belle and thought it was going to be a lot darker/more pigmented because it looks hella dark in the pot, ended up being quite light.. blends nice tho
oooh i'll give it a go! saw some new things on the website i wanna try too so i'll try it! thank you for the heads up xx
Me too I was so disappointed as it was so raved about, I could’ve see a different. Got a refund.
Hey Steph, can you please try the new hydra palettes in the creator makeup range by revolution ?? I want them so badly, but i want to assure they are good first. Thank you, lots of love from Portugal
Psoriasis scalp suferer for about 20odd years, ingesting tumeric daily can help, but im the same with creams etc as its on my scalp. Found anxiety and stress can make it worse but best shampoo iv found is Shea Moisture - Jamacian black castor oil. Doesnt lather up much but iv found its calmed things down and i dont have big scales now ❤🖤
I love the elf putty bronzer!! I’m super pale and pretty neutral toned and the shade Feelin Shady is the best contour color I’ve ever found.
I agree.
so, i worked with adults with developmental disabilities, when one of my clients had psoriasis behind his ears and on the top of his head, he was bald, but we used a combination of jojoba oil and coconut oil and it cleared it in a day or two, just be sure to use it regularly with a flair up.
So pretty!❤️
We need to get you to 500k very soon!!
proper felt for u luv lol x butg you made it work best ya could x blessx ya steph x
Also when putting a letter shaped like that in a creased I probably use instead of big fluffy brush a denser blending brush
you’re beautiful always! 💜
For my psoriasis I found sunshine exposure really helps. Also my dermatologist recommended Aveeno skin relief menthol lotion. Really helps.
Soo beautiful! I’m never that excited about elf either.. the internet hypes me up for it and then it never lives up to. Still a great video tho 💕
I love the putty products but everything else I get so amped to try but then I'm like damn, should have bought milani...
Will you be open to try the CC with a more moisturized base and using the products you already know and love? I am curious if that would change the way you feel about it.
Have you tried the body shopl ginger serum?
You look awesome with blush
Try the Childs Farm shampoo for your scalp. It’s for babies but it’s so good! My partner gets an itchy dry scalp and it really clears it up! Xx
Really will have to give that a go
What is that eyeshadow brush I want one x
Silicone head massager I got mine at tk maxx and love it helps a lot tbh x
I have combo skin and I love that primer and halo powder, but I hate the CC cream!
I had issues with the CC Cream looking a bit dry too, but I do a sunscreen under mine with my other moisturizer products and use a very small amount. I had to go a little darker in my shade so when I wear it with sunblock I don’t look like a ghost. I feel like they run a bit fair anyway. I do like it though after I found the right combination of products.
Your notifications work!! 🎉💜
The Philip Kingsley Scalp Toner for Flaky scalps is what I use and it clears my scalp up so quickly!
Yeah, I learned from my first elf quad: use your finger for the shimmers. Otherwise, it’s a lost cause. The blush looks nice.
The body shop , ginger shampoo and then the hemp body butter for the dry patches on your skin x
Compared to that MUA Foundation Stick the other day the CC Cream looks great. 👍❤
Loved this! I have to try elf products, i dont have even 1. Thanks beautiful!
Elf’s CC is so full coverage. I applied too much and wasn’t a fan of it at first…but then I did only half a pump and paired it with light concealer. It also needs a silky powder; it gets a bit flaky on me too.
I quite like the ELF CC cream for it's skincare and SPF benefits in makeup, but I've got really dry skin so it works alright with my skin. But it certainly gives drugstore vibes though, as it's nowhere near as good as my high end ones like my Armani foundation or Nars ones.
Hey, I have psoriasis on my scalp and I use tgel, but it doesn't smell great so I use living proof perfect hair day shampoo after and it does smell loads better, also use wonder water on my hair and it smells great for 3-4 days after shampooing. Hope this kind of helps 😊
Off topic but just wondering where you got your earrings from - so lush
first thing i wondered was if you had any moisturizer on and second thing was your base could look the way it is because you're hungover, drinking dehydrates you and draws moisture from where ever it can in your body so it would make sense that your skin would be dehydrated. as an esthetician that's where my mind went.
Will you do a testing zara makeup vid? 🤞
I have really bad psoriasis my self and I’ve found that the Philip Kingsley itchy scalp tonic works really well along with the shampoo as well hope this helps you xx
oooh thank you mate! i'll give anything a try at this point ha!x
i stay liking before watching :) luv u
you're the best!! thank you so much - love u 2 xxx
I also get scalp psoriasis, especially when stressed! I've found the nioxin scalp recovery shampoo is really good (and smells absolutely Heavenly in a clean minty way!) Also the serum is good and doesn't make my super fine hair greasy! Worth a try to see if it helps 🤞😊
I don’t like that foundation either! I do love the halo glow powder though! 🥰
T GEl shampoo is medicated and helps me out a lot when I get a flare up not sure if you have ever tried it but I sware by it 😊 hope this helps x
Dandrazol / ketoconazole shampoo. Can get it from the chemist or on Amazon it’s what I’ve used for years as it was recommended by a dermatologist
Steph, we don't have elf in South Africa and I was thinking of a way to get a whole lot, now I don't know. But that look wasn't bad, better than I do most times. Heard that eye pallette wasn't great. My skin is oily, do you think the other products would work for me if I got the right shades?
Can’t wait to see this ome
my dad has psoriasis and he uses cbd oil in the form of drops..it's life changing and it's cleared his skin up completely
Any brand specifically? 🙏🏼
@@Romans08.31 holland and barrett if you're in the UK🙂❤
I LOVE E.L.F. but I have the exact same issues with the cc-cream and the translucent powder as you do. Dry-ness with the powder and the foundation just won't stick to my skin, no matter the primer (or without). WIth a foundation that actually works for me, the putty bronzer and blush look beautiful though! I really recommend those!
i liked the mint & lilac Steph pretty 💚💜
thank you!xx
Uv lights for your body spots and denorex RX shampoo on your scalp. Helps me a lot
I got a notification, don't like you, I love you!!!!! Lol
Thought you carried the look pretty damn good 😀 I also get psoriasis in my hair, and won't use the cream in hair, but I will watch all the advice people give you (I know I'm a cheeky mare!) Lol. Lovely to see you as always xx
I wish I looked as good as you on a bad makeup day!! ya GORGEOUS!! 💕
Have u tried t gel shampoo for hair really good stuff you get it in boots colour is brown colour in a bottle 7pound for big bottle don't smell nice but with the right condiner it's good helpd my daughter loads with her hair xx xxx
i need that eye brush
Beautiful as always! I would say my body was 70% covered in psoriasis, I tried all the creams, lotions and positions then I went to see a dermatologist who recommended consentyx. Now I don’t have ANY psoriasis, I don’t know if you know but it is actually linked to arthritis and you may start to get symptoms of that if you haven’t already and the medication actually helps with that too 💜
With the ELF cc cream you have to use a tiny bit! That stuff gets cakey fast!!
