E.L.F. Haul

So I finally got my shipment from E.L.F. I love this site. If you've never checked them out I encourage everyone to do so. Or at least find a place in your area that sales these products. Most products are only a dollar, but some items can go as high as 3 for their studio line. All of their products are really good quality and I perfectly love them so if you have a few dollars to spend I really recommend going to this site.

So as I've said, I had gotten my shipment from them and it only came in about a week after I ordered it. I have ordered some of their products before but there was somethings that I didn't get before that I decided to try this time. One of these things was eye liner pen. I haven't got to try them yet or even open the product, but when I do get there I will post all of the swatches and reviews for all of these products. So with the eye liner pens I got them in two different colors. I have them in the coffee which is a really rich brown color and also in black. I hear that they are really easy to apply and also waterproof which comes in handy on a hot summer day. I also got the Earth and Water Mascara, which has two formulas one in waterproof and one in regular. I also got the Basic Browns: Get the Look set. It came with 3 eyeshadow pots, 2 applicators, 1 eyeliner in coffee (a pencil not a liquid), false eyelashes w/ glue, an eyeshadow brush, and another Earth and Water mascara in brown. I also got the duo eye shadow cream in Mocha Swirl. I hear that their cream shadows make a great base for eyeshadows and seeing as how I got the Basic Browns, I figured since the cream shadows I got were a light and dark brown it would make since to use these as bases for the look. I also got two of their Natural Radiance Blushers. One in Shy and the other in Innocence. Shy is a little darker so it is more of a peachy bronzer and Innocence is a really cute light pink color. I have personally used these product in the custom compacts kit and I love these blushers. They are so smooth and they last most of the day (I have a fairly oily complexion...). The eye widener is really cool. It's just your basic white eyeliner, but the thing that makes this unique is that the cap has a built in sharpener. So you don't have to worry about finding a way to keep this sharp, because it's just built into the lid! Awesome right? Okay so I'm pretty much obsessed with their nail polishes and so I got 3. I got the Royal Purple, Punk Purple, and Fuchsia. I love these nail polishes because they are quick to dry, are toluene, formaldehyde, and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) free. So if you know anything about these chemicals one thing you should difinitly know is that they have no place on your nails. The color of these polishes are extremely good and they are also chip resistant which is handy if you have a hard time keeping polish on your nails. I also received a few things for free. On of them was the lip gloss tin. The color varies usually by order and I got this for free for referring three friends (or just putting in 3 different emails). Another thing I got for free was the mini makeup kit. This usually goes by itself for 15 dollars but I got this for free when I spent 15 and also used a coupon code. I don't remember what it was but you can goggle it and find coupons for the site pretty easily.
As soon as I can find the time I plan on doing some swatches of everything as well as pictures of the products. As soon as I can get a decent camera, I would love to start posting some videos with tutorials and tips and tricks and hopefully some hauls.
So I hope that you guys liked this haul and will check out the site or find it in your local store and give them a try.

Till next time
Laters..
