E.L.F. Haul

Hi everyone my name is Jenna and I am an E.L.F.aholic.  Seriously I am obsessed!!  I want EVERYTHING!!  So, I forget if I mentioned this or not but I'm catholic and this year for lent one of the things I gave up was buying unnecessary cosmetics.  Well I decided that I did infact need a concealer brush.  I thought that I'd just get one from E.L.F. b/c the one I wanted from there was only $3!  Can't beat that!  Well.......   I went onto eyeslipsface.com to look at their brushes when I discovered they had a promotion that I could get the whole 11-Piece Studio Brush Set that retails for $30 for just $3!!!!!   WHAT!?!  I couldn't pass that up!  However, there was a catch and you had to spend $25 first before you could get the deal.  So long story short my one concealer brush that I needed turned into this...


I was BAD!  REALLY BAD!  
Sigh... Hopefully God forgives me.  Anyways here's what all I got:
  • 11-Piece Studio Brush Set (Normally $30 - I got it for $3)
  • Studio 32 Piece Eyeshadow Palette (Normally $10 - I got it for $5)
  • Essential Travel Mirror ($1)
  • Essential Shine Eraser Blotting Papers 50 pk ($1)
  • Essential Dramatic Lash Kit - Black ($1)
  • Duo Eyeshadow Cream ($1 each)
    • Eggplant (green and purple)
    • Mocha Swirl (light pink and dark brown)
  • Conditioning Lip Balm SPF 15 ($3 each)
    • Mellow Melon
    • Blissful Berry
    • Romantic Rouge
  • Blush and Bronzer Set - Blush, Bronzer and Mini Kabuki Brush ($3)
  • Eyelash kit - Eyelashes, tweezers, glue, and eyelash curler ($3)
  • Dramatic Lash kit - Eyelashes and glue ($1)

I was so so so happy with this order until I saw the condition of my 11-Piece Studio Brush Set bag...




I mean is it just me or does that bag looked used??  It resembles other bags that I have that have been handled repeatedly by people that have makeup on their hands...  I don't know.  The inside is in perfect condition, the brushes are fabulous but the bag.. ugh.. I emailed costumer service at eyeslipsface.com to let them know my disappointment in it.  I'm not TOO upset b/c I only spent $3 for it but I just find it weird that a brand new bag came in that condition. 

If you haven't checked out eyeslipsface.com you need to!  I know they also sell their products at Target and KMart but I enjoy getting them on their actual website b/c if you sign up for their newsletters they have SOOOO many great deals like the brush set.  Also don't be afraid of the quality with their low prices.  I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with just how fab their products really are! 

Have a great week everyone!

  1. I'm glad I'm not the only elfaholic. So addicting with their low prices.

    The bag does look weird, though it's hard to tell in the pictures.

  3. I LOVE elf! I just got a great kabuki brush from them. I also ordered a powder brush, but I'm not a fan, it's a little too soft so it doesn't hold much product. I hope your bag isn't used...that weirds me out a little...did they ever reply to your e mail? I also tagged you in the getting to know me posts:

  4. Hey Lady Britt! I was a little weirded out by it as well! They did reply to my email and w/ no questions asked sent me a brand new bag including all of the brushes. This new bag looks perfect. I'm probably just gonna keep the original bag tho and give the replacement to my mom though.

    Thanks for following! I'll check out your blog as well :)
