E.L.F High Definition Powder

While shopping on E.L.F a few weeks ago, I came across this High Definition powder. Being a massive lover of anything High Definition, i just had to try this. I already have the Dior Capture Totale High Definition Powder, and i absoloutely love it, don't so much love the price of €59. This version from E.L.F  is nicely priced at £6, bargain.

Here's how E.L.F describe this product. " The high definition loose powder creates a "soft focus" effect to the skin. Masks fine lines and imperfections for a radiant complexion. The incredibly soft and invisible powder is great for on-screen and everyday wear.
The microfine particles are designed to be used with high-definition camera technology or for everyday wear. Apply powder all over the face for a professional and youthful look of perfection. "

This product is actually really beautiful, the packaging is sleek, it comes with a powder puff inside and the powder is so lightweight and soft. I applied this powder after i had applied my base (primer,foundation,concealer,highlighter), I used my fan brush to apply it in a downward direction. I would not recommend using the puff, it picks up too much product and this product is something that is meant to be lightly dusted over the face. The overall finish was very impressive. My skin felt so soft, it left a fab finish to my base and it was also a great base to apply blusher and bronzer on. I also noticed that it was light reflecting, and in a good way, my skin looked glowing. Very impressed with this, I really did not think I would be swayed on my choice of HD powder, but I have. Well done E.L.F on a fantastic product.
You cant go wrong with this, its available from E.L.F website and costs £6...

  1. Interesting! I've tried it as well and I hated it, especially the soapy feeling it left on the skin. Maybe I need to give it another go using your method. Personally the term HD rarely ever gets my interest in products. I just think it boils down to how you use a product. Thanks Jenny for an interesting post. For the price, I suppose it's not that bad.
