It’s been, oh, I don’t know, 4 years maybe since I ordered from ELF cosmetics’ website. Since their addition to Target stores, I’ve found myself just stopping by the aisle really quickly to pick up a replacement liquid eyeliner or eyelid primer, but not really pausing to investigate new products and shades. Then silly me remembered I had purchased a Groupon for ELF (that had long expired) and had yet to redeem it! It really did take me some effort to find enough goodies to make it to the free shipping minimum (that’s a lot of $3 lip products, mmkk?) but I’m pretty happy with my selections! I will try to get swatches up soon of the lip items and am also so happy to have a replacement for my old “dump” bag! I just love that they call it that, because you can just dump all of your makeup or whatever in it, but the one I had was from years ago and was covered in spilled loose eyeshadow and foundation, eek! This is much better 🙂
For the bargain price of $24 I received –
The infamous dump bag
a travel mirror
2 eyelid primers
a glitter primer (if I ever wear glitter on my lids again!)
2 lipsticks
lip exfoliator
gold smudge pot
3 tinted lip balms
blush palette
Not too shabby! I’m most excited for the wine-hued lipstick and that lip exfoliator.. My lips have been so dry recently!
What are your thoughts on bargain makeup brands like E.L.F.?
🙂
Thanks for the post. Looks like you got some lovely products. Have fun! 🙂
Thanks so much! So far, I’m loving the little lip balm pots 🙂
I love Elf! Such a great brand and very affordable! 🙂
It really is! I’ve never had luck with their nail polishes, but I think pretty much every other product has been pretty great, and so well-priced!
I have to agree with you on their nail polish. Not a fan of that but everything else I have really liked! 🙂
I love their Studio blushes, Mellow Mauve is my favorite!

Thanks for the tip! I need to expand my blush collection.. I’ve been working on a Coastal Scents palette for so long, I feel like I got stuck in a blush rut! I’ll look into Mellow Mauve 🙂
No problem! Haha I know how you feel sometimes! I have force myself to look at my other blushes so I don’t get too comfortable with just one.
