So many uses for these pearls.

The e.l.f. pearls were a little gimmicky at first but now I use them everyday. I separated the lighter pearls from the darker pearls in the pot so I can use them differently. The darker and pinker ones are great as bronzer/blush for paler skin and the white pearls work great to set under eyes. It gives a very light dusting which is what I want for my dry skin. It gives the skin a smooth velvet look that lasts. Very pretty but a little hard to get a lot of product on the brush. I would love it if the pearls were a loose powder instead.

I was a little hesitant to buy this, the pearls looks really shimmery in the package, even though some reviews I read online indicated for the most part that they were matte. Since all ELF's products are so cheap, I decided to try them out, not caring if I was out a few bucks.

The container is large and plastic, with ELF's signature black matte lid, inside is a large white puff that you can use to apply the powder from the pearls on your face. I don't use the puff, but do keep it inside as it keeps the pearls from rolling around and getting damaged. I apply it with a large flat top blending brush (the pearls don't stick on the brush), I do not get a lot of powder on the brush, so sometimes I have to apply quite a bit if I want to contour.

For the most part, I just use as an all over face powder/bronzer. It leaves my skin with a nice glow, almost like a touch of sun, with the tiniest amount of shimmer. The pearls are really pressed together so its impossible to ever apply too much and I feel like these are going to last a long time.

I recommend these mineral pearls, once I run out I will repurchase and as we get closer to summer I know I will use it more often.
