Usually I do not purchase ELF eyeshadow because I am never impressed with them. But when I was surfing the web not too long ago, I came across an eyeshadow palette that was worth taking a second look. It was the ELF Prism Eyeshadows.

The ELF Prism Eyeshadows are a set of six eyeshadows which are ultra silky and luxurious. One interesting thing about this palette is that the shadows are not named. These shadows look like a powder but feel like a cream. The Prism Eyeshadows come in Naked (set of neutrals), Sunset (set of pinks and golds) and Smoke (set of blues and greens).

I was pretty satisfied with this ELF palette. The eyeshadows are creamy and have lots of pigmentation. Also, these shadows are mostly metallic, but there are some that are frosty. My previous experiences with ELF eyeshadows have been as good as this eyeshadow palette. Even though these eyeshadows have micro-glitter, there is very little fall-out. This really impressed me because in the past shimmery eyeshadows created a lot of fall-out. The dark colors in this palette are deceitful in that they are very reflective and appear lighter than they are. One thing I did not like about this palette was the sponge applicator. When I first opened the palette, there was glue all over the mirror. Apparently, the applicator fell apart and the glue got on the mirror. Not that big of a deal since I use brushes to apply my eyeshadow.
When I applied the shadows, I used a primer and a brush. When I applied it this way, the colors came out very true. The colors lasted all day long and needed to be freshened up in the evening. The colors were also blendable.
Overall, I would give the ELF Prism Eyeshadow palette an A. The colors were a pretty jewel-tone and I was able to create awesome looks. This palette is worth trying.
The ELF Prism Eyeshadow palette retails for $10.00. It can be purchased at
