These affordable E.L.F. favourites are always in my makeup bag.
As a beauty editor, I test a lot of makeup but only a few earn a permanent place in my everyday routine. Recently, I’ve found myself reaching for these e.l.f. products whenever I want that effortless glow. They’re affordable, easy to use, and make my skin look great.
When I want my skin to look naturally luminous, the Soft Glam Satin Foundation, £9, is the first product I reach for. It sits perfectly between matte and dewy, giving me that soft, satin glow that looks fresh rather than shiny. It smooths over my red cheeks without looking heavy.
A glowing base isn’t complete without bright, well-rested under-eyes, and the Soft Glam Satin Concealer, £5, delivers exactly that. I tend to use it under my eyes and around my nose to add brightness without heaviness, and it blends seamlessly into the foundation.
The Halo glow silky powder highlighter £9 gives skin a soft, luminous sheen that looks effortless and refined. It’s a product I haven't yet tried myself but I’ve heard good things about it and can’t wait to try it.
No glowing makeup look feels complete without glossy lips, and the Halo Glow XXLippie £12 has quickly become my go-to finishing touch. It gives my lips a juicy, hydrated shine that makes my whole look feel fresher and more polished. Please note that delivery charges may apply.

An increasing number of people are turning to at-home IPL devices to cut down on shaving and salon visits, and the Keskine handset is one drawing interest. It claims up to 98% hair reduction in four weeks, with cooling tech designed for comfort and treatments from just 24 minutes. Priced at around £199 (was £299) 💸, it offers a lower-cost alternative to clinic sessions.
Matching foundation and concealer shades can be one of the trickiest parts of any make-up routine 😩 – but e.l.f. Cosmetics say their newly launched Soft Glam collection could make things much simpler.
The Soft Glam Base Covered Duo bundles the Soft Glam Satin Foundation with the Soft Glam Satin Concealer, both available in 36 shades 🎨 covering cool, neutral and warm undertones across fair to rich skin tones. The idea is simple – choose the same shade for both products and create a coordinated base without the usual guesswork.
Both formulas promise lightweight, satin-finish coverage that is buildable, crease-resistant and transfer-resistant ✨ – designed for everyday wear whether you prefer a natural glow or a more polished look.
Even better for shoppers, the duo is currently £10 with code FLAWLESS 💸 – saving £4 compared with buying the products separately.
