For the love of ELF!
Ok, I admit it! I was wrong. But, when I got my first shipment of ELF (Eyes, Lips, Face) cosmetics to review and found out that they cost only a buck a piece, I wasn't sure what to expect.
I mean, really, what can you expect for a buck, right?
Wow! I was wrong!
ELF turned out to be a superior product line with superior ingredients.
In other words, it delivered on it's promise.
And, when I found out that these trendy little make up must haves, were also faves of name brand celebrities, I jumped with girlish glee.
Finally, I had joined the glamour girl in- crowd!
Celebrities such as Sara Paxton gave out e.l.f. cosmetics at her birthday party as party favors while Jamie Lynn Discala from the Sopranos picked up e.l.f in New York before it was available in stores.
Also celebrities like Lindsay Lohan, Dominic Monaghan (Lord of the Rings) and Kwame Jackson were some of the first to try e.l.f.
WOW!
About ELF philosophy:
Eyes, lips face cosmetics (aka e.l.f.) sells their products for the inexpensive price of $1.00 because they feel that all women should be able to enjoy prestigious cosmetics without sacrificing their budget.
About the ELF Products I tried:
Elf Soothing Lip GLoss:
Anti-inflammatory rich lip conditioner protects against dryness and provides intense shine on contact.
Great for chapped lips.
One of the best dry skin care products for lips that I've ever found.
Shades I tried: Mauve Luxe and Pink Lemondade.
My opinion: I loved the Mauve Luxe. Works well with both brunette and red hair.
Very thick. Very rich. Luxurious creamy color that goes on like a silky dream and lasts for hours.
As for the Pink Lemonade:
Fun and Sassy!
A very light, barely there shade that would work well for anyone who wants a sheer gloss to add over top of a favorite lipstick.
Or, perfect for fun Saturdays hanging out with friends when you want a more casual, flirty look.
Plus, e.l.f. cosmetics was the first to put SPF in their lip gloss.
Price: $1.00 each!
Product selection:
There are eight fantastic moisturizing lip glosses to choose from, from Pink Lemondade and Mauve Luxe (my personal favorite, which I use constantly) to Cabernet, Hot Red and Pixie. You'll want them all.
Perfect for summer.
About the packaging: Super slim tube, you could easily slip into your jeans pocket for quick touch ups at the beach.
Recommendation: Run, don't walk to your computer and get yourself a shopping bag full of these tiny beauty life savers!
PS. My two year old followed me around all day after I applied the creamy mauve luxe lip gloss by ELF, smacking her lips and demanding kisses.
Now, that's a ringing endorsement!
