My first thoughts when I saw the ELF lip oils wasn’t Dior, all the colors were actually mimicking Merit.

[@daft_j]

Elf lip oil has more color than Dior lip oil. Jam Session by Elf is similar to Sangria from Merit

[@melissatranfield4054]

@@daft_j Is it? I thought Sangria might be more pigmented. The shade Falcon from Merit is super pigmented. I think the most pigmented Elf shade is Rose Envy.

[@daft_j]

@@melissatranfield4054 similar colors, but you're right. sangria is more pigmented

[@maddio3]

You are the absolute queen for doing all these swatches and comparisons!! We appreciate you so much 🫶🏻🫶🏻

[@originalparafan]

Blush never lasts on my skin. The reason I love the Rare blushes is because they last ALL DAY. I would love to buy more shades but they’re pricey to me. So really all that matters to me is if the Elf blush also last all day. Amanda, do you have any insight on wear time?

[@JessZola]

I saw in another video they (ELF liquid blush) are SO pigmented you just need the littlest bit! & retail for $7 comparable wear time more since it's actually more pigmented than Rares. Hope this helped. xo 💗

[@mochacola72]

I need more purple blush in my life...purple looks great on dark skin.

[@EmikaSyviis]

Really appreciate the swatches and comparisons 💕💕💕 I always have a hard time finding good comparisons with consistent lighting, so this is very useful 😅

[@haeleahdavis4219]

Amanda, I love that you still post videos when your skin isn’t perfect. None of us have perfect skin all the time! And I have cheek texture often, so it’s really helpful watching your reviews to see how makeup applies when you have texture too. Thank you ❤

[@AmandaZ]

Thank you so much 😊

[@mushusegone8717]

Also the color correctors from Elf are amazing and extremely affordable (6€). I’m pale with really dark under eyes and the peach color corrector alone works wonders. I recommend it to everyone in my situation…I know the struggle 😅

[@MusingOnBeauty]

Yay for real skin, Amanda, and thanks for always doing close-up swatches that are so helpful! Happy Holidays!

[@julias5980]

Thank you for going ahead with this video even though your skin wasn't 100% cooperating and for continuing to do your up-close swatches! I genuinely value your work and your approach to your videos.

[@joansmith6844]

She’s the best ❤

[@TarynRMartin]

A lot of us probably prefer seeing swatches done on actual (imperfect) human skin rather than an overly filled/botox-ed face. Plus, Amanda is so beautiful regardless of any perceived texture “issues.”

[@sylviaeneriz4808]

I agree. I want to see makeup done on real skin, that’s how we get to see how these products really work on any blemishes or problems we might have.

Thank you. I needed this today! 😢

[@doedarling1215]

I use Jam and Rose lip oil everyday, its great with their $2 lip liners. Still not sure if I need more blush, but I like the Mauve and Rose (even though its kinda peach).

[@leoraa.6179]

Thank you for filming and being so real much appreciated for your work! 🥰

[@LarinaValarin]

I'm definitely still on the Barbie pink blush trend. Now and forever really, so that shade is very appealing to me 😂

[@BlueSky-or3is]

This video is exactly what I 've been hoping for! I love how thoroughly you describe the pros and cons of each product. Thanks for all the swatches too!

[@AmandaZ]

Of course!! I’m so happy to help thank you for being here!!

[@kathleenp3135]

Swatches and comparisons were so appreciated! Glad you did the video with your skin as-is. It’s real and it’s beautiful. I’m dying to try the Elf coral crush. Hope you demo it sometime in an upcoming video. I think these Elf “dupes …if we had to call something a dupe” are spectacular. And the price! Yes! Happy Holidays! 😘

[@MimiKa319]

OMG your eye makeup is so pretty! What eyeshadows are you wearing?

[@ylio_66t]

is it just me or is the elf blush in the video blended out easier? the rare one seemed to patch a bit, like the outline of where the blush initially was never really disappeared

[@elizabethlevesque6978]

So I’m like, a light neutral skin tone (for elf CC cream I come out to a N210) and for some reason I decided to order the ORANGE one first. When it got to me I was like “oh shit this is insanely orange why did I order it” but I put just a small dot in each cheek and when you blend it out it becomes the prettiest like flush on my skin. Like I said I’m a light neutral but I do lean more warm, so the orange is a perfect flush especially for summer, I’m excited for that to roll around. But I wore it for Christmas and I think it’s lovely. I just ordered another color, one of the deeper ones so we’ll see how it looks when it gets to me lol

[@kittycloud6693]

Your videos are always so informative to make good purchasing decisions

[@KaitlynMae_]

I always appreciate demos on real skin, especially as someone who has acne in my 30s.

[@DancingThroughLifexoxo]

Me too, love to see how things perform over acne

[@CPea91]

the almost incessant requests for her viewers to appreciate all her “efforts” (aka her job) is a bit much.

[@shannonevans2875]

Thanks for the "real skin" demo.

[@dreamof_me]

I wish ELF wouldn’t randomly put rose water in things. In their color correcting concealer, it’s enough rose water to be there but you can’t even really smell it over the other stuff in the formula. These elf blushes have rose water too but it seems a bit gimmicky, whether you really love rose water in products or you hate it.

[@xFolkmore]

ahhh yay! i was hoping to find an in depth comparison of these products. great video! also, thank you for sharing your “real skin”. I really appreciate it! you are gorgeous!

[@emeliagrace]

Thank you for your extreme thoroughness and impartial presentation of products!

[@tracevicente]

The Burts Bees lip oil literally disappear as soon as you put it on. Actually excited about the ELF lip oil being balm like. Thank you!

[@internetgirl3099]

Amanda's tone was so "interesting" when she talked about ELF blush being produced in China

[@dkb2375]

$40 lip oil is just no. Thank you, ELF! and thank you for this comparison.

[@Tracylyn42]

I don’t think anyone watching has perfect skin. Seeing how it looks on some texture or blemishes is what I want to see since that is my skin.. thanks so much

[@Halloweenlover10.31]

I love the Rare beauty liquod blushes, but with my wishlist being as long as it is less $$ is better. (As long as the quality is good like here)

[@kim-mr7oh]

love the demos, thank you so much for this video 🤎

[@juliecraig6770]

fab video thank you x do the elf blushes smell like the camo concealer ? i do t seem to like that smell x thank you Amanda x

[@ancadan9935]

Amanda, what are you wearing on your eyes? Lovely!

[@elacampusano7341]

Amanda, I really appreciate your comparison videos and that you show the swatches of the products and your videos where you show the swatches of shadows, etc., you do a very good job and I really appreciate your effort and I trust your videos a lot more than you think. is it worth buying and what is not.

Aw, I really wish they would make unscented versions..it is so hard when you have allergies to fragrances. I love the honey talks lip oil on you!!

[@celinabond]

You have the prettiest rose bud lips. ❤ I prefer a more putty cream like the elf putty blushes but appreciate you showing us the swatches! Merry Christmas 🎁 ❤

[@belindah6554]

Great review as always, no stress required, beautiful as always ❤

[@whizgal851]

is this a new trend to put the blush around your eyes instead of on your cheeks?? I’ve been noticing this strange placement everywhere now a days and wondered what’s up 😅

[@BelArtist]

Yes, it’s been a thing for most of 2023 😅

[@geget988]

Best demos ever

[@staceyabraham617]

My skin hasn’t been 100% for awhile now and I’m starting to feel a bit more comfortable in my skin. Again, I’ve found all my favorite base products from your channel, so thank you for showing what these products look like on real skin!

I thought the lip oils were going to be thin and moisturizing but they’re literally just a regular lip gloss and I was disappointed. Why call them oil 😭 I’m giving them to my sister.

[@labb592]

Love the ELF gloss! I prefer it to the thick Summer Fridays one & as much as my Tower28

[@blendofdays]

I bought honey talks almost immediately after it launched 😅 no regrets! I just picked up one of the glossy lip stains in cinnamon dreamz & while i do think it's an interesting formula & quite nice, it almost has a slight drying effect when it wears off. 😢

These elf lip oils look gorgeous! I don’t think I’ll be able to try them because of the fragrance, unfortunately (pending allergy testing). But I really do appreciate your thorough swatches and especially the side by side comparisons! And I’m so glad you film even when your skin is going through it. I think it’s so important for people to see real skin doing what real skin does. But, also, I really couldn’t tell.

[@kayyoung3187]

Sorry if I missed it but which mascara are you wearing in this video? It’s exactly the style I love!

I might pick a shade up but I think I'd try to get a color I don't already have in my collection. I tend to get rosy shades for some reason even though I like a bit of a browner tone.

[@lillesoester]

DAMN! I just caved in and bought the rare beauty blush, but i actually prefer the minimalist elf packaging, oh well! Thank you, as always, for the great swatches

[@deborahanderson1686]

Quick question…have you tried the Elf lip liner?

[@Mariakayc]

I’m glad you mentioned the mint. Buxom gloss was so uncomfortable and that’s how I learned mint in formulas is a no go for me.

[@Mro183]

Love the way you explained the implied value and the actual value/price point etc ❤

[@cristinitaandco]

You mentioned your imperfections and then I noticed I promess its not as bad you still glow and you are naturally oretty so that’s a plus

[@jadeypeach]

I must be the only person to hate the elf lip oil. It stinks of peppermint and tastes awful 😅
