Major e.l.f. Haul

Thanks to Groupon, I was able to pick up $35 of elf products for $15. There were so many items I wanted to try, but I didn't want to get too crazy. Plus, the Groupon was good only toward their mineral products and not the whole site. So that helped to slim it dow a bit! I'll be sure to review the items for you ladies, you know I love a good price and quality product. I've never used their mineral line before so I'm excited to check it out. I mostly use heir studio line and love the products so wish me luck.


My first "add to cart" items were the e.l.f. Mineral Lip Glosses in Au Naturale, Bare and Sorority Girl. All pretty similar in color, but great pinky-nudes for everday use.I really like the glosses you can buy at Target, my only complaint is that you don't get enough gloss on the wand for just one application and have to apply like 6 times before it really coats your lips. I hope that's not that case with these.



I followed the glosses naturally onto e.l.f. Mineral Mineral Lipstick in Natural Nymph and Runway Pink.
Then to round out my Groupon, I picked up e.l.f. Mineral Kabuki Brush, e.l.f. Mineral Angled Blush Brush, and e.l.f. Mineral Eyeshadow Primer.

Not included in the Groupon, but I got the e.l.f. Studio Single Eyeshadows in Saddle and Coffee Bean. There were more colors I wanted, but figured it's best to test it out first on a couple instead of going crazy and regretting it later.



I also picked up e.l.f. Studio Blush in a new color Giddy Gold.

They have so many great products, there were a ton more I wanted to try but didn't want to get out of control. I figured I'd buy these items, give them a run and go back later to buy as I needed. If you want to see past reviews I've done on e.l.f. products check out my posts for blush, makeup mist, bronzer/gloss/polish. I mostly love their studio collection, which many items sell at Target. This haul will be my first in trying their mineral line.

Have you tried e.l.f. yet? What products did you like/dislike?

I love elf cosmetics - currently using the make up set spray that you recommended, it works so well! Esp. because its like a million degrees in Minneapolis right now, with crazy humidity...
Can't wait to hear about these new products :)

I get elf products because they have such great colors and its sooo cheap! My favorite so far is the eyebrow filler. Its a packed creme like filler with a powder to set it. Works wonders!
