At 66 with hooded and "loose" lids, Bobbi Brown cream shadow sticks are my favorite eye shadows. They go on so easily, don't crease, last all day. Great for "one and dones" or just two shades, butI have used three. I use my fingers more than tools. BTW, that Clinique lipstick was Black Honey which is making a major comeback right now.
I will be 69 in a few weeks and I also have hooded, loose skin on my eyelids. I find that if I put a darker shadow in the crease and drag it to the outer V, with a light shimmer on the lid, that it works pretty well for me.
@@theresas2520 So does the BB website. They are 3 minis and actually a smaller version of the 4 mini-stick set Nordstrom just had on sale for less than $26 (same 3 colors plus an add'l one) or the 2 double-end stick set (again with pretty much the same colors) that was in Nordy anniversary sale, and then everywhere else, for $34.So if you got either of those sets, you already have what's in this one.
Ly-chee , you said it right at the end. It's a fruit that is a light reddish color. I love to watch you. I've caught up on all my watching so I've been going way back and watching. I really enjoy your videos, and I always watch to the end to get the out takes. LOL 💞
I would be up for a review of cream bronzer’s! I have had my eye on that Fenty bronzer since you had it in one of your videos. It would be interesting to see where it ranks! Thank you! 💗
I would love to see a cream bronzer comparison video, as I’m looking for one but am quite pale. Based on this review, Tan Lines may be light and sheer enough for me.
I love to use the elf shadow sticks as eye primers. The light shimmer shades are great to help all powder shadows stick but also gives a slight sheen underneath mattes that keeps my eyes looking awake! The darker ones can be great to add depth under shimmer shadows on the lid, or as liner! Great shadow look and great video! You should try their blush duo in spiced apple-it’s incredible!
I usually Scribble my cream shadow stick near the lash line and mobile lid, and blend with a dense synthetic brush (working one eye at a time so that it doesn’t dry down)
We are in Hawaii (Big Island) and I am so thankful to be here, with warm weather and to be able to swim in October. So grateful! I love ELF halo powder too. So good. Great video!
Love Elf but, we don't have the CC cream in Canada atleast I've never found it. Love the skin care as well ...thanks for being you. You are the most down to earth and prettiest tuber there is.
omg, yayyy!!! i’m a newbie to your channel, and i’ve been binge watching your videos ALLLLLL DAY!!! i loveeee elf. they also inspired my love for makeup. they’ve evolved soooo much in the past couple years. i am obsessed with your beautiful hair!!! your nail color is lovely.
Lie-Chee. The flavor reminds me alot of pears, it's super yummy in cocktails. It's an asian fruit you will often see at nicer Pan-Asian restaurants. I also have worn Clinique's Black Honey since the 90s!!! Love your videos Mandy!
I have the Elf HD pressed powder I absolutely love now you have inspired me to try more Elf products. Thank-you very much I hope you girls & guys realise how appreciated you are 😊
Hi Mandy… weather update… I escaped rainy Ireland and am currently on holiday in 88F Cyprus 😎☀️ Happy days 👙🏖 Three Elf products made it into my travel makeup bag, their primer infused blush in Always Punchy, the hydrating camo concealer and their clear brow/lash mascara!!! My cream shadow stick from Kiko Milano and Victoria Beckham Lid Lustre in Mink also made the cut… both are great for a quick one and done look while on holiday. I apply at the lash line and blend upwards with a synthetic brush… P.S. you should try the cream shadows over an eyelid primer like the Milani or Urban Decay Primer Potion, I get less issues with creasing that way. They don’t work as well for me when I use concealer as an eye primer.
I've used the multi sticks for a few years now, and absolutely LOVE the Bronzed Cherry!! Usually I use it as blush, but have used it for eyes, cheek and lip, and it always looks good. It's a bit dry on the lip but, hit it with gloss, and it's good. I'll have to try the putty bronzer. Although I like multi stick in Radiant Bronze, it's got some shine to it, and a more matte bronzer would be a nice change.
Thanks for this video @MandyLea ! ELF Dewey skin mist is the BEST!! I finally found a dupe for my ridiculously overpriced Tatcha Dewy Skin Mist $48 🤦🏽♀️😵😖🙈. The elf Cooling primer (green one) has made me a believer in primers. I thought they were dumb and genuinely useless. Um...This makes my skin (with the Purito bb cream/Misha bb cream and elf dewy mist) look FLAWLESS. I haven't seen my skin look this good in...ever. EVER!
If you're looking for a new foundation brush recommendation ... Newest one I am loving is the Morphe E63 ! It's the one that came out with the focus effect foundation ... It's unlike any other foundation brush I own and I'm a makeup brush hoarder ! Hahahha I really enjoy it I feel like everyone needs this brush in their collection ! I'm in Buffalo NY right near the border of Canada and it's rainy this week but it's been perfect fall weather lately !!! High 50s low 60s breezy and cool 🎃🍂🍁
Love e.l.f.! Awesome video, thanks. I think I’ll watch it again to try and obtain the same look. And yes, I’d love a video on the different cream bronzers. If they’re not long lasting, it’s not even worth the trouble for me.
I just found you & I love your channel already. I am 44 and I can relate to you soo much! Not sure how old you are, but almost feel we grew up in same era 🥰
In Central Illinois, we’ve had storms in the area all evening. In my town, we had 4 severe storm warnings, 1 tornado warning, and a watch until 1 am. So far I’ve seen a flash or two of lightning. Speaking of elf, when I want to use one of my Shadow Bite palettes, but feel like I need to pull something in, I like to use my elf New Classics palette. Lot of variety there.
The ELF lip is supposed to be a dupe for the Clinique black honey. I love the elf shadow sticks I do always use and eye primer cause I have hooded eyes but I just scribble them on my lids and blend up with a brush to soften the edges. Pretty look. I always thought the blanket skirt was a universal thing that people did. Love your channel💕
I'm further inland. We got some sprinkles this morning so you guys should have gotten the same if not more? It's still cloudy and cold at this hr. Loving it but my body isn't having it ☹...
I love putting on a "blanket skirt" if it's cold. I live in Australia so it doesn't even get that cold here compared to other places, but our houses are not built to cope with it either.
I have/love 3 of their shadow sticks. I have the shades magnetic pull, rose gold and ice creame from the mint collection I believe. I pair them with the Maybelline Color Strike sticks. You don't get a lot of product in those but I've been able to create some cute, easy looks. When I use the Elf sticks I just swipe the product on my lid then use a lipstick brush to blend it out. I know that sounds like an odd choice of a brush but it works. I just wish they had more matte shades available in those sticks. I bought their eye putty primer but I'm not too impressed with it. In order to get it to work I have to warm it up, clean my finger then go in to get the amount I need. Some times I get the right amount other times I get too much which then leads to an over primed lid. So not attractive. For that reason I decided not to try their blushes (I don't contour or bronze). I still use their Elf bite size palettes. I have 4. I love using Truffles. That silver-ish shade is something special. Every time I apply it I'm amazed...
Love how your look turned out! I always got tripped up with the pronunciation of Lychee. Lychee is an english translated or "americanized" word. From everything I've read, depending on where you're from, LEE-CHEE & LIE-CHEE are both acceptable. I've heard that Mandarin pronunciation is closer to "LEE" and Cantonese is closer to "LIE". (?) So... take your pick!
I apply cream eyeshadows with my finger initially (unless it's in pencil form) and blend it out with a Real Techniques brush. I find that the bristles and shape of the Real Techniques brushes work the best for cream shadows. Of the brushes I own, anyway.
Thank you Mandy! I’ve really struggled w the elf camo cc cream… I’m light w Irish pink undertones and cannot find a shade that’s not super yellow on me. Anyone have any suggestions? I wear It cosmetics cc in light or fair. Thank you 💕
So the blanket skirt is enough to keep you warm? I would think something more around your shoulders would do the trick. At least that would work for me and of course do NOT forget the socks!👍😂
The elf shadow sticks are not my favorite. But for myself , I used some concealer and set that with powder and then used the shadow sticks , they stuck like glue. They are nothing like the Mally Beauty ones !
Lychee is pronounced LIE-CHEE. It’s a Chinese fruit. It’s a sweet and yummy white fleshed fruit inside a harder shell that you peel away to get to the delicious juicy morsel inside. Although many North American mispronounce it as LEE-CHEE. Regardless, it’s yummo. :)
My mom gave me a Clinique Black Honey over 20 years ago. I went to buy a new one, last month and had to really search for it. When I went to pick it up the salesperson told me about the rage over it.
Please do a bronzer comparison, both cream and powder. I was taught to say lee-chee for lychee. I just looked it up, and that’s the American pronunciation. The Brits say it as lie-chee. They also put a long “oh” in emollient instead of saying uh-mahl-lee-unt, like we do in the States.

Right now Ulta has a set of 3 of the shadow sticks for $29. Both Bobbie Brown and Laura Mercea sticks.

I like the way you put on the bronzer..subtle and soft
..so many influencers bronze up too much

Mandy I am looooving the growth of your channel and any collabs that you get! You are so deserving.
We are in Hawaii (Big Island) and I am so thankful to be here, with warm weather and to be able to swim in October. So grateful! I love ELF halo powder too. So good. Great video!
Lucky u ❣️❣️
If you love cream shadows, try Sydney grace cream shadows they are only 8 dollars and big tubes. A little goes a very long way
Love Elf but, we don't have the CC cream in Canada atleast I've never found it. Love the skin care as well ...thanks for being you. You are the most down to earth and prettiest tuber there is.
Clinique Black Honey….a classic. Still wear it, but the Elf lippie looks close 👀
Clinique almost black honey. I think. I had it too. Years ago. And was planning on purchasing when I finish a few other lip sticks that I have.
Wow, ELF really making the rounds on YT today. Always enjoy your videos, Mandy! Have a great week.
omg, yayyy!!! i’m a newbie to your channel, and i’ve been binge watching your videos ALLLLLL DAY!!! i loveeee elf. they also inspired my love for makeup. they’ve evolved soooo much in the past couple years. i am obsessed with your beautiful hair!!! your nail color is lovely.
Have fun with makeup...its the bomb.
.you will become addicted!!
ive been wanting to try those shadow sticks! the colors you swatched are so pretty. the Clinique lipstick is Black Honey, btw.

Here and Louisiana we have finally gotten a break from the heat! It was an amazing 75° all weekend!
I use brushes for the stick eyeshadows. Gives me more control ❤️

Hey!! Yay!! I'm so glad your videos up been waiting patiently lol!!
How funny. Finally got lychee at the end. Very nice application. Love the blanket skirt.
I love both the Lychee and the Watermelon blushes. I think Lychee is my favorite though.
Sunday evening just got better
Your videos make my life so much better.
Congratulations on the ELF partnership 💞 I love ELF products, so affordable.
Yay!!! I also do blanket skirts. Slowly getting cooler in nc too. Ty for all your videos
Wow congratulations 🎊😍🤩🤩! Love elf and you Mandy. Well deserved ☺️. Great video as always. Love your looks. You are the best! Be well. ❤️😊

Great video. Those blushes look really good 👍 xxx
Good look! Will be interested in more tutorials use the earth & ocean palette & the cream shadows.
Snow?! NO snow Foothills of NC it's still in the 70's, Looking forward to trying Elf. Haven't tried any Elf.
In Central Illinois, we’ve had storms in the area all evening. In my town, we had 4 severe storm warnings, 1 tornado warning, and a watch until 1 am. So far I’ve seen a flash or two of lightning.

You can go in so many different directions with the Earth and Ocean palette, I love it, is one of my favorites. I hope you do more looks with it.

I live in Utah as well and I'm not ready for winter! But I also hope we get a lot of snow we definitely need it!
Enjoyed this video. Two of my favorites, you and ELF.
Really nice look on you I do use a lot of elf products and I'm quite happy with them
I love your finished look! So pretty! I’m definitely checking out a lot of these products!
Yes, please rank your bronzers. Bring it on! 🤗
Love your videos!
I have been researching cream bronzers for about 2 weeks. I would love to see your reviews and rankings.
We're in San Diego so it's been in the mid 70s. I'm still in shorts and flip flops but it's supposed to "cool down" soon.
I'm further inland. We got some sprinkles this morning so you guys should have gotten the same if not more? It's still cloudy and cold at this hr. Loving it but my body isn't having it ☹...
I work from home and have a blanket skirt daily!!
That word is LI-chee - it's a tropical fruit and oh so yummy. They are prevalent in Hawaii - kind of a cross between a plum and a grape.
I love putting on a "blanket skirt" if it's cold. I live in Australia so it doesn't even get that cold here compared to other places, but our houses are not built to cope with it either.

i'm trying the milani cream bronzer & idk about its wear time..& I have the cream rcma, wet n wild & elf. time to compare
Alright! A fellow Utahn! I love to see it!!
I just moved to Utah earlier this year. So scared for winter!! I’m a Florida girl.
Clinique black honey almost lipstick. Stays sold out, really popular on tic toc.
That is a beautiful look
You just look more beautiful every video!
Pretty look as always. What shade of lip liner is that?
The lychee is the only one that really works on me and I'm fair but never looks too dark. Good product, duo bronzers.
I apply cream eyeshadows with my finger initially (unless it's in pencil form) and blend it out with a Real Techniques brush. I find that the bristles and shape of the Real Techniques brushes work the best for cream shadows. Of the brushes I own, anyway.
i have oily eyelids and the no budge stick don't crease on me! They do not move once on my lids! I love them
What shade of the halo glow powder do you use? I can’t tell if I should pick up light or medium and I’m pretty close in skin tone to you.
I've been eagerly waiting for this video!
I adore elf
Thank you Mandy! I’ve really struggled w the elf camo cc cream… I’m light w Irish pink undertones and cannot find a shade that’s not super yellow on me. Anyone have any suggestions? I wear It cosmetics cc in light or fair. Thank you 💕
120N works well for me and I am very fair
Thank you Karen, I’ll give it a try💕
New subscriber! I do love the cc too
You said Lychee the right way in the last second of the video. I’ve never eaten one, but I think it’s pronounced lie-chee. Great video!
So the blanket skirt is enough to keep you warm? I would think something more around your shoulders would do the trick. At least that would work for me and of course do NOT forget the socks!👍😂
Someone (Jessica Braun?) said the elf putty bronzer is a perfect dupe for the cream portion of the Patrick Ta bronzer. Do you think they are similar?
Elf is the best 😊
It sucks Wal-Mart's in Canada dont have the elf cc cream.. :'(
Florida - 83 degrees 🌴
Love the video
My gosh, they still have the clinic ones!
OH MY GAWSH! I just saw there’s a new 12 day Advent calendar from sigma for $100. Why am I on a no buy!!! 😩😩😩
The elf shadow sticks are not my favorite. But for myself , I used some concealer and set that with powder and then used the shadow sticks , they stuck like glue. They are nothing like the Mally Beauty ones !
I pronounce it like lee-chee. I’ve always wanted to try that pallet so pretty, but never did it, I may have to jump the shark with that one.
Because my eyelids are very oily I apply cream shadows with a brush and they don’t crease. They will crease using my fingers
It’s said like a leach with ee at the end. Lol
like alf too but when you put the wax on brows ,seems like you cant put any color over it
Lychee is pronounced LIE-CHEE. It’s a Chinese fruit. It’s a sweet and yummy white fleshed fruit inside a harder shell that you peel away to get to the delicious juicy morsel inside. Although many North American mispronounce it as LEE-CHEE. Regardless, it’s yummo. :)

I'm with team lie chee
The Clinique is Black Honey
I wanted to love Fenty cream bronzer, but it just didn’t wear very long.
🌺🌺🌺”lee-chee”. 😀😀🌺🌺🌺
I live in the Tampa Bay Area in Florida and it will be in the upper 80’s low 90’s this whole coming week. Yikes!
Please do a bronzer comparison, both cream and powder.
I was taught to say lee-chee for lychee. I just looked it up, and that’s the American pronunciation. The Brits say it as lie-chee. They also put a long “oh” in emollient instead of saying uh-mahl-lee-unt, like we do in the States.
