Benefit High Beam Dupe!

Sorry it's been awhile since I've been on here :P I haven't really been into makeup and all lately - therefore I haven't been purchasing any which leads to me having nothing to review/talk about. But I've had this product for awhile and realized that it's pretty much an exact duplicate so I figured I'd share with you guys! :)

I have a mini size bottle of the Benefit's High beam. The full size bottle retails for about $28 I believe at Sephora. Well, I've already done a review for Elf's Body Shimmer which you can see HERE -- and one of these Elf Body Shimmer sticks matches High Beam exactly.

The Elf Body Shimmer stick is called Mystic Moonlight. Obviously, the texture is different than High Beam. High Beam comes in a liquid form and the Mystic Moonlight comes in a solid cream form. But the color payoff is like a perfect match. Same color, same shimmer - everything. I find that the High Beam is easier to blend than the Mystic Moonlight -- but that isn't a big deal to me when the Mystic Moonlight is $3 compared to High Beam's $28.

I'm not saying that I do not like High Beam -- because I do. It's a great product! But it's a bit pricey for me and I can't go and repurchase 34384347 bottles of it. So Elf's Body Shimmer stick in Mystic Moonlight is more my type since it's only $3. Plus Elf always has sale coupons floating around on the internet so you can probably pick it up for half off ;)

Hope you enjoyed this review & I'm going to try and post more -- I promise! I have tons of new things coming up that I am looking forward to blogging about :)

Elf Haul

I just got all my Elf stuff in the mail today! Woohoo! I just want to show you the things I purchased today - and in a week or so, I'll do a review of all of these products.

I got:

Beauty School Eyelid Primer Collection - $2.25

Studio Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 in Porcelain - $3

Studio Eyebrow Kit in Light - $3

Studio Body Shimmer in Mystic Moonlight - $3

Studio Body Shimmer in Golden Glow - $3

Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 in Apricot Beige - $1

All Over Cover Stick in Spotlight - $1

All Over Cover Stick in Apricot Beige - $1

Studio Powder Brush - $3

& I used a 50% off coupon - soooo, including shipping - my total was $19.70

I already have the Eyebrow Kit & the All Over Color Stick in different colors . I used the 'honey' All Over Color Stick in the summertime as my concealer -- and it worked great! So I got a lighter one for the winter time to see if I liked it as well. I'm sure I will - it's the same product - just a different color.

& I have not tried pencils, or any other eyebrow marker before - only shadows & gel. And the first gel I tried was the Elf Eyebrow Kit in 'Ash'. I looooove it! It's just a little light for my brows - so this time I ordered the 'Light' one - and hopefully it'll be my color.

Blahblahblah, like I said - I'll test out all of these & do a review soon enough! :)
