Hi Friends,
it's a new post. I try to post with my new style of reviewing products, it's shorter, view words but can answering all the questions like how about the colors, staying power, pigmentation, etc. I think this way is not gonna made you feel bored to read my reviews, i hope. You can get the essentials of the product review without reading lot of unnecessary words LOL . It doesn't mean i'm too lazy to write but i'm still doing my review with a purpose to give you a complete information about the beauty product. so yaa, i hope you can enjoy it..
Today is a review about ELF studio blush & bronzing powder duo in 'antiqua'. Over 2 month ago, ELF website launched lot of the new item and colors for their current products including more 2 colors for the e.l.f. Studio Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder.
I take my time to choosing what their newest product that i wanting so much.
I know the e.l.f. Studio Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder concept is similar with NARS blush/bronzer duo. it's like a dupe for NARS angelika/laguna duo. the NARS angelika/laguna duo is awesome. lot of beauty blogger rave about that and i'm so curious and wanting to try the colors combo like NARS angelika/laguna duo, but since i don't wanna spending over $40 just for a blush/bronzer, i choose this similar stuff that cost much cheaper than NARS duo. finally i bought this e.l.f. Studio Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder in antiqua'.
Product name :
e.l.f. Studio Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder
Price:
IDR 60rb
Whats this? ( elf claims) :
Create a healthy and natural glow all year long with the Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder. The Blush highlights the cheeks to add a flush of color, while the Bronzer accents and contours cheekbones for beautiful definition. This convenient compact has just what you need to achieve a gorgeous glow anytime, anywhere.

Packaging :
ELF put blush n bronzer together in a shiny black plastic packaging,
the plastic looks sturdy and it comes with a mirror in it..
the size is quite bulky but its thin and sleek..

Pigmentation: 
The pigmentation is great,
The colors are really opaque. you can get the colors like on the pan with a very light handle..

The colors & Finish:


  • The bronzer color is a dark reddish brown. i choose this antigua because i thought can using the bronzer part as a contouring powder but i was wrong, the color is too orange.
  • The blush color is bright pink with a blue undertone. i love the kind of this color, it makes my face brighter with a natural pink flush.
  • It's really flattering when i'm pairing this blush with an bright pink lipstick too.
  • I think this elf blush/bronzer would look good on medium dark skin-tone, with cool undertone.
  • Both of the blush or bronzer is have a shimmer finish, this stuff contains tons of silver glitter in it.
The blush
The bronzer

Texture:
it's soft but a little bit powdery.

Staying power:
it stays for 4-5 hours on my cheek.

Swatch:
The bronzer on my cheek
the blush on my cheek
Overall, this blush have a average quality. it's not super amazing considering for the cheap price but it's quite ok. the texture, pigmentation and staying power is ok! i don't like the bronzer color which is too orange and hate the shimmery finish. i imagine if this duo is a matte, i'll definitely love it.
Thx for reading...
