Disney Ariel Collection by Elf- Review, Swatches, and more!

When I heard that Walgreens had a new Disney Ariel Collection I knew I had to have it. Basically, anything Disney or Ariel and I am in love! 

This collection is limited edition, just like the previous Disney Villains collection that Elf released a while ago. This is also exclusively from Walgreens, but it's also on their website and I have heard drugstore.com has it too. 

This collection has a palette, a bronzer set, an eye shadow set, brush set, false lashes set, and a lipstick/gloss set each sold seperatly. The Walgreens by my house had a ton of all the sets so I was really excited! I got everything except for the lip set and the lashes. 

I'm going to share each set I got, include swatches, and a brief summary of my thoughts for each set. I will warn you that there is a lot to share so this post with be lengthy! 


Treasures Within Beauty Book- $10 

Absolutely love the art on this. It's similar (or the same?) to the Disney Ariel art that I have seen in Hot Topic lately. 

This comes with 9 eyeahdaows, two Bronzers, a lipgloss, and two brushes. One is an eyeshadow brush and the other a little bronzer brush.

Here's the swatches from the eye shadows. 

Here's the Bronzers and the lip gloss.

My Thoughts-
First I'm going to say the packaging to this is gorgeous! I'm obsessed. I am pretty impressed by the Bronzers, they are super pigmented especially the darker one. I like them better than the bronzer that comes in the blush/bronzer duo by Elf. The eyeshadows were pretty pigmented and creamy, and I love how the shadow brush is gold! 


Under The Sea Eye Collection- $5



This set comes with two eye shadow duos, and an eye liner pen.

My thoughts-
Again I love the packaging for these! Especially the one with the sea shells on it. I was more impressed by these shadows than the ones in the big palette. I think they are more pigmented and the colors are really vibrant. The eyeliner pen was okay, but I'm not a fan of eye pens usually. 

Ariel Bronzer and Kabuki brush set- $5



The first swatch is of the two colors mixed together, and the second is just of the darker portion. 

My Thoughts-
I wouldn't use this bronzer for contouring, but I definitely think it makes for a gorgeous golden highlight! I love how the art on the packaging matches the larger palette! 

Crystal Brush Set- $10
My Thoughts-
I'm honestly probably never going to use these, but they were so pretty I had I get them lol!!! I love the turquoise and jeweled handles! 

The look I created with the Treasures Within Palette 

I used the lighter bronzer called Tan Lines in my crease and blended it out. I used the color called Siren Song all over my lid. I used the green color called Seaweed in my inner corner and first half of my lower lash line.

Overall thoughts-
I am definitely happy that I picked up this collection! If you are a Disney or little mermaid lover, then I would really recommend this to you! Elf is super affordable and I only spent $30 for these 4 sets! 

I hope you all enjoyed this and thanks for reading!!

    1. Thanks Pilar! It was definitely worth the money! Elf is so cheap as it is that you can really go wrong with trying stuff out. It's a hit or miss brand usually, but I was impressed with all of this!

  7. woah I've been away from the blogging community for a while and all of a sudden this pops up haha! The brushes are gorgeous, I love how the handles look translucent. ELF eye brushes are honestly not that bad, I have a couple of them and some of them are the ones I use most frequently - though I can't say the same about the face brushes. I have to get my hands on they eye set, the packaging is so pretty and I'm happy to hear that the eye shadows are good too.
