ELF haul and swatches

I wanted to get some of the ELF (eyes lips face) polishes for some time now (especially the glitters) and couldn't say no to the free shipping offer that ELF UK had about two weeks ago. Here's what I got: 

from L-R: Smoky Brown, Dark Glitter Purple, Glitter Glam, Twinkle, Golden Goddess, Lilac and Brightening Eye Color in Brownstone
First of all, these aren't my first ELF polishes. I've already tested and reviewed Desert Haze here. The packaging of these claims that they are all big 3-free. However, I'm not very convinced of that because some of them (not all) have a very strong smell. I don't mind the chemicals in the polishes but if you are allergic or something like that you should be very careful with these. I also got the eyeshadow quad, which I will be reviewing in my next post. So let's get to the swatches.

The last 3 are obviously layering polishes. Golden Goddess has small golden glitter and some larger hex glitter that gets stuck to the bottle and is very hard to get on the brush. Glitter Glam is a silver glitter and Twinkle is a multicolored glitter that is actually holographic. My favorites until now seem to be Dark Glitter Purple, Glitter Glam and Lilac. Which one do you like?

  2. No, they are different. This one is literally called Dark Glitter Purple. It's darker and more blue-based than the Party Purple. Here's a comparison picture I found: https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-jB34KedEhqw/TXdT1zgD4MI/AAAAAAAAAZI/XXRzGF3cfQQ/s1600/IMG_4181.JPG
