The cheapest makeup you'll ever love

About two years ago, when I started watching makeup tutorials on YouTube, I kept hearing the beauty gurus talk about 'elf' cosmetics.  I had never heard of such a brand, so I assumed it was something high end only available in stores I couldn't afford to shop in.  Turns out, I couldn't have been more wrong. E.l.f., which stands for 'eyes, lips, face', is probably the most affordable, good quality makeup on the market. Their products are so inexpensive, it's almost too good to be true. Most items range between one and six dollars. E.l.f is sold in stores like Target, K-Mart, Walmart, and even in some Dollar General stores. While I like being able to buy it in the store, I LOVE shopping on their website, www.eyeslipsface.com.  They carry so much more than what you'll find in any store.  Also, if you sign up with your email, they will send you coupon codes quite frequently.  I don't think I've ever paid full price for anything when buying from the website! There are so many great makeup products to choose from, but, the brushes are what really stand out.  I have several e.l.f brushes, and I just keep adding to my collection.  Below are some of my favorite e.l.f. items.  I hope you will browse the site, and maybe do some shopping yourself!

Brushes

Essential Eye Shadow Brush: Perfect for applying shadow all over the lid $1

Essential smudge brush: short, dense bristles perfect for applying a highlight under the brow $1

Studio small angled brush: I use this brush to apply my gel eye liner.  Great for creating a wing $3

Studio Angled blush brush: Perfect for contouring with bronzer, or applying blush $3

Studio powder brush:  I use this to stipple my blush on, but this would be great for pressed powder $3

Studio flawless concealer brush:  This is wonderful for setting undereye concealer with a loose powder $3


Face

Studio blush: Long wearing, highly pigmented blush.  'Tickled pink' is a beautiful shimmery coral/pink.  Also, check out 'gotta glow', which is a beautiful cheek highlighter. $3

Studio high definition powder:  This is a great translucent setting powder that can be used all over the face.  I especially love it for setting my undereye concealer.  $6

Studio makeup Mist and Set:  I use this after I've applied all of my makeup to set everything in place.  It contains aloe, green tea, cucumber, and Vitamin A,C, and E, so it's just great for your skin in general. $3
