ELF Studio Blush Mellow Mauve: Review , Swatch
Hi All,
You know my first blush was bought by my Dad..hehe. Some trio blush by VOV, he kept saying go for the proper brand and I said it is just one time thing. That I will loose interest in blush and I don’t want to spend a lot. I feel like an idiot for saying that now. Because after lipsticks, blushes are my love. I love owning them and applying them. So today I have ELF Studio Blush Mellow Mauve which was a part of the US drugstore haul as well.
Price: 3$ for 4.75 gm.

My experience with ELF Studio Blush Mellow Mauve:
Mellow mauve is a mauve shade with some rosy/pink tones to it. It’s not completely matte, no shimmers but it has this satiny finish to it which ends up giving the glow to the skin. You can see the sheen the blush has in real light. It’s gorgeous and can be worn at any time.
The pigmentation is okay, but the shade is such that the layering will be needed. Only on the deeper skin tones it won’t show, but on the rest it will. On my dusky tones it acts as a n*de blush. Even for the fair/medium skin tones it will work as the same with the hint of pinkness.
The texture is soft and it’s gets blended easily. I have even worn it as a neutral eye shadow and worked well that way. Does not apply patchy, or does not get patchy on the face. It stays about 3-5 hours, depends on the weather condition.
ELF Studio Blush Mellow Mauve has a matte black packaging with the transparent panel through which the shade peeks through. Helpful incase you own many shades. There is a mirror inside it pretty useful for touch-ups.
There is thing about this n*de blushes, they seem so unimportant but they can actually put your entire look together. Something like what your inner garments or the belt would do, they are doing their thing and keeping everything together. A shade like this a must have according to me.
Whether I have just kajal and bright lipstick or some eyemakeup and bright lipstick or light lipstick for a change, it suits every look. This blush is going to come handy for day time, night time, college/office wear even for parties. ELF Studio Blush Mellow Mauve gives that healthy glow to skin , which gives my skin but better finish. Availability is a con, not available in India easily.
I recommend this if you are getting this in the original price. Do check this shade out of you are looking for a neutral blush which will come in handy in every occasion.
I love this blush. I know it has some cons but it costs $3!! So No complaints Duh!!
Have you tried this? Do you like neutral blush?

I own a couple of ELF blushes. I adore them a lot. Extremely affordable bargains. Great review!
I know why. Thanks Ankita 🙂
Hey dear. This blush looks really beautiful. I think it can act as a highlighter also because of that beautiful satin sheen. And a great review.

Hey Akanksha!! Indeed. Yeah never thought that way, but you are right.
It will make a great one for day time I think
Thanks 🙂

Thanks Dona 🙂
The shade is so mild yet so beautiful. This is on my US shopping list. Really doesn’t make sense buying this in India.
Yeah, surprisingly stunning. You are right Sangeeta, it’s good but not worth double or triple the price 🙂
e.l.f blushes are really nice and this one is so versatile. I am eyeing the blush palette from e.l.f.
Yeah, it just goes with anything. It’s so nice 🙂
Absolutely no complaints if we get affordable yet performing product. Great review 🙂
Exactly Sonali. Thanks <3

“they seem so unimportant but they can actually put your entire look together” So aptly put Swathi 🙂
Thanks so much for the kind words Soumya 🙂
I am yet to get my hand on ELF blushes, I have tried their eyeshadows and kabuki brush. Nice review, for this price you really can’t complain.
The price point changes everything and so many different products 🙂
I love ELF for their affordability. The shade looks a bit bummer though. Nice review 🙂 Love the pictures
Oh I am loving the shade a lot. Thanks Harman 🙂
This is one is value for money.. wud love to try this one if i have the chance 🙂
Rightly said. Hope you get a chance to try this 🙂
These brands should really come to India without a hefty price tag! If not, then at least Indian brands should start making super affordable and good quality makeup! I love shades like these, can pair them with almost all lip shades! Great review doll! xx
You are right Emmy. Yeah, goes with almost everything 🙂
You are right in its original price ELF products are amazing. This shade is really pretty.
GlamupGirls
Yeah, they are worth it then. Loving it too 🙂
Yes shade like this actually hold everything together. i have got Elf Blush in Twinkle Pink which has shimmer. I Loved the quality of ELF blushes as such. Will love to try this satin finish,n*de shade now. Lovely review
The one you got in your US haul right? Thats pretty. Do try this if you get a chance. Thanks 🙂
For 3$ it is a steal 🙂 I remeber my first blush was in palette by VOV which has eyeshadows and blushes 🙂
VOV is really good. Some branded products disappoint in terms of pigmentation VOV Doesn’t 🙂
This is so gorg! I so wish for ELF to be launched in India… Nicely reviewd
True. We need more brands, more choices at affordable rates 🙂 Thanks
All in all this sounds pretty good for the price, I’ll have to check out their blushers 🙂 xx
