| Splayed brush! ARGH! |
Yet another quibble with Ellis Faas product container. I use this almost daily and the brush fibers get caught on the edge of the cap as I press down and then THAT happens. That aside, I really like this concealer.
| Shade S203 |
| Slightly blended with my fingertips |
But recently, I am so happy to have found a use for the brush that I really despise. The RMK eye shadow brush M (I think). So scratchy and bulbous that it would fit my eye sockets if they were the size of a soup bowl.
I use this RMK brush to lightly blend the concealer and it looks magically natural! How nice is that? (The little red vertical line going down my arm next to the now invisible swatch is the mark from my pony-tailer holder that I slept with)
Pretty good, right? Anyone else a fan of the Ellis Faas concealer?
Update:
Recently the company contacted me to let me know that the brushes have since been fixed in production, which is nice news! I would love to know if had a recent purchase and can confirm if you have no issues with the splaying brush. Thank you!
i haven't tried anything from ellis faas that i can remember... well maybe i swatched something once but forgot lolol
ReplyDeleteLol. It didn't make such an impression on you, huh?
DeleteI heard that Ellis Faas has a very good lipstick but I have not tried any product from the brand.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I heard the EF creamy lips are incredible. But after this concealer and an eye shadow, I'm not sure I want to deal with the applicator again.
DeleteHey!
ReplyDeleteI am on a bit of a concealer binge since I am prone to puffiness thanks to a hinky jaw and prone to headaches! I have tried a few Ellis Faas shadow products and always forget I have them. This concealer looks good- I was looking at the By Terry one or possibly the $$$ Le Metier de Beaute fancy one- what do you suggest?
These EF pen applicators are such a pain! But the concealer is lovely. I've heard the ByTerry one was really nice, but I haven't tried it and I've not tried the LMdB either.
DeleteHave you access to Burberry? The concealer is nicely pigmented with good coverage. I've just not had any luck with color match in that particular product.
No access to burberry- BUT- my brother will be in London for two days-BUT- as luck would have it the Burberry warehouse has been out of stock for two weeks and still no luck- he is being a wonderboy- and collecting some Burberry Spring products from Harvey Nichols for his dear sister! Thats why I though I might get the By Terry one?
DeleteYou have such a patient lovely brother!!
DeleteYour "Splayed brush! ARGH!" photo is priceless.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giggles.
Cue Boo:Belly belly bump!
