E.L.F Valentines Day Gift Set! And A thank you too E.L.F!

Hello everyone, I've got two E.L.F reviews coming up for you! First off I'm review the Valentines Day Gift Set, that my fiance kindly brought me as my present! Now I must say about the problem that happened, I read on the website that the bag was worth £12 and when I received it I only had 3 Items and the total was not £12. So I then went on the E.L.F Facebook page and kindly ask why it didn't total the price it was set at, I then found out I was missing two products so I email E.L.F on the Friday evening, Can I just say I think that E.L.F has one of the best customer services ever! I can not praise them enough they are AMAZING! I got a email back on the Monday morning and they had shipped it that afternoon! I then got it two days later. I am so impressed with E.L.F they really do make every customer feel special! Honestly they are the best! No doubt about it! Thank you guys at E.L.F! On to the reviews!..

E.L.F Duo Eyeshadow in  Black Licorice and The swatches!
Ahh I really love this eyeshadow! The black is highly pigmented and slightly shimmery and the Silver is the same! I love wearing the Silver all over my eyelid the the back on the outta corners and the crease! Puurfect! 

E.L.F Luscious Liquid Lipstick in Ruby Slipper, The applicator and the swatch!

This Luscious Liquid Lipstick is so lovely! I know alot of people don't like the applicator on this lipstick but I love it! You can just twist up as much as you need and thats it, no need to carry round a lip brush! I expected the colour to be slightly more red, but it comes out a pinky red and is very sheer! The formula is also slightly sticky which I don't like! Also its moisturizing which is never a bad thing!

E.L.F Nail polish in Medium Red and The terrible  swatch!

I'm so sorry girls! The swatch of this nail varnish is hideous! I literally painted my nails and hour before and had a few minutes before I was going out when I took all of these photos! Of course everyone loves E.L.F nail varnishes and I don't think this one will be an exception. The colour is a medium red so its not bright more intense and deep! lovely for a dinner out or when your feeling sexy!

E.L.F Brightening Eye Liner in Ash and The swatches!

Ahh I really do like this eyeliner it goes lovely with smokey eyes, The colour is a dark dark grey with what appears to be little bits of glitter/shimmer. Again the swatch is horrific but I've done three different ways of first one I pressed relatively hard, second a lot softer and the 3rd I smudged!

I saved the best till last! 
Studio Cream Blush in Seductress and The swatch!

Ahhhh I love this so much! This is defiantly my favorite product of them all, The colour comes out a perfect deep pink and I'm so into my pink blushes at the moment so to receive this i was so happy! I would probably advise using a blush brush with this because when you use your fingers its really quiet hard to blend in as it is so pigmented! you only need the tiniest amount. I also find you have to work quickly or it sinks in/sticks fast. the texture reminds me of play dough to look at but once you've put it on your cheeks it looks just like a powder would. I really do highly recommend and love this product!

All in all I was so pleased with this Valentines Day Gift Set! I gives you everything you need to look pretty for your guy or just your girls! I totally love it! I will add a photo of all the products on my face at some point for you girls! 

Did anyone else get the Valentines Day Gift set? What did you think of it?
