E.L.F. Review


Eyes lips face, otherwise known as e.l.f.
These cosmetics can be found online or at target and are quite cheap compared to most other cosmetics. I've tried a few and have decided to share my results.

Mineral Powder Foundation: $5 light coverage, fine for a good skin day but if you're feeling broken out then go with a mousse foundation or physicians' formula mineral powder foundation.

Therapeutic Conditioning Lip Balm: $1 I used the orange creme and it smells wonderful. However, it does not contain SPF.

Waterproof Eyeliner Pen: $1 I ordered plum and it was dry when I received it, I shook it and stored it upside down but nothing helped. Once I decided to try wetting the tip it worked fine. Not sure if this is a fluke, other online reviews seemed to be fine.

Brightening Eyeliner: $1 Wonderful, I bought the black and it works as well as Kohl's Flirt! $12 eyeliner (which I love). It's soft so it doesn't pull and glides on easily with lots of color. Each pencil comes with a new sharpener.

Mineral Face Primer: $6 Works as well as Victoria's Secret's $18 primer. However, it does not contain SPF. I'm saving it for winter and still plan to purchase the VS version.

Zit Zapper: $1 Contains Salicylic Acid, Witch Hazel, Tea Tree Oil, and Camphor. Tingles and seems to help clear up pimples. However, it is not very effective on popped pimples, use as they appear.

Clairifying Pressed Powder: $1 Seems to cover more than the powder foundation but is also much darker. I ordered in Ivory and plan to only use during the summer because it is darker. Covers shine wonderfully though.

Brightening Eye Color: $1 Nice colors, glides on easily but not the best I've ever used.

Mineral Eyeshadow: $3 Awesome! I use one of their $1 brushes to apply (which are also wonderful) and it stays on without creasing all day, even in the hot summer months.

Overall, I recommend checking out the elf website, the first logo picture should be linked to it.
