The newest edition to the e.l.f. disney collection is Queen Elsa! I have nothing but good news and good things to say about this one! I feel like they took all the best things from the other beauty books they have come out with over the past few months and incorporated them into this one!
The book has eight eyeshadows, highlighter, two liners, lipgloss, and eyeshadow brush. This has been the most any beauty book has included.
Eyeshadows are swatched from left to right, first row, then the second row.
"Kristoff" is a shimmery warm bronze/gold. "Sven" looks like a warm peach in the pan but swatches more of a cool toned peach on my skin tone (I"m a little confused by why those are named as such I don't really see them in those colors at all). "Anna" is a shimmery purple with a fuchsia undertone. "Hans" is a warm shimmer bronze. "Olaf" is a shimmer white, and surprisingly not chalky like I'd expected. "Arendelle" is the prettiest of them all! a shimmer burgundy. "Elsa" is a matte purple with slight silver glitter. "Marshmellow" ?? is a matte black with slight silver glitter. The glitter shades show up pretty matte on the lid to me.
The highlighter, "Snow Queen", for the most part is a very shimmery champagne. It is very buttery and applies smoothly and evenly. It has a silver imprint in the middle. On the right is the champagne color swatched by itself, next to it is the two swatched together, as if you swirled a brush in the middle.
Both the liners are really great. I have been very impressed with how well the e.l.f. liners have swatched and applied in each disney beauty book. The liner on the left is the glitter liner "Starry Night." Unfortunately it isn't the best liner as far as glitters go. The liner on the left is the black liner "Frozen Heart." This one applies beautifully and very black! Neither one is waterproof or smudge resistant though.
The lipgloss "Royal Pursuit" is so pretty. I think that they did really well in replicating the color of Elsa's lips from the movie. It also applies nice and evenly (which is a huge improvement from the previous lip glosses that have come in the other Disney beauty books) and it doesn't smell bad like that one Snow White one did.
Last but not least is the brush. YES it came with a brush! I think they all should have come with a brush. This is the original eyeshadow brush that is in the e.l.f. essential line that is only $1 but will be the best $1 you have ever spent. I won't go into much detail about it as I have don't previous reviews on this brush alone as well as a huge review on my favorite e.l.f. brushes. I will link one below.
e.l.f. brush review
Overall this one was great! e.l.f. keep them coming and have them all be this great of quality! This is available at select Walgreen's drugstores. This is the only retailer that I have seen carry any of the e.l.f. Disney collections.
The only downfall: where the other beauty books have retailed for $9.99 this one retails for $12.99. I guess they really want you to pay for that brush and extra eyeliner =/
