Review: I was really excited to see these liners because I have always wanted to try colorful eyeliners but I didn't want to spend 5+ bucks on them. So for the five dollars I would've spent on one eyeliner from one brand, I bought five from e.l.f! These eyeliners are nice and go on smoothly. I use them on my waterline and they don't irritate my eyes at all. They do fade throughout the day though. 

Verdict: ★★★★

Day 4: e.l.f. Studio Baked Eyeshadow Palette

The long-lasting and shimmering color can be worn wet for a vibrant effect or dry for sheer pigmentation, offering a variety of gorgeous eye looks!

Directions: Apply dry all over the eyelid with a brush for a subtle wash of color or apply wet for a vibrant effect. Choose a light color to apply all over the eyelid as a base or to highlight. Next, apply a medium shade over the eyelid or in the crease to contour. Then apply the darkest shade to define and line the eye for depth and a smoky look.

Review: This is the most expensive thing I've bought from e.l.f. And it's 10 dollars. Seriously, how can you not love this brand! When I saw the colors in the palette online I fell in love. So far, I have worn the 3rd and 4th colors on the top row. They are so pretty and shimmery. They are also really great quality. If you want to buy a nice, neutral, eyeshadow palette that's not ridiculously priced, this is the one to buy.

Verdict: ★★★★★

Review: On my last haul, I had a coupon for free shipping but was a few bucks shy of the minimum amount the coupon required. So, of course, I bought some nail polish. I got Coral Dream (pictured) and Smoky Brown. I like the bottle shape. Although when I just tried to take the top off, the black part came off of the brush. It went back on, but still. This is a really pretty nail polish. It went on a tad streaky, but another layer hid it well. It's also a total steal at 2 dollars. Overall, I would (and will) buy more bottles.

Verdict: ★★★★

EDIT: Only 2 days after application, it has started to chip. 3 stars.

Day 1: e.l.f. Studio Lip Exfoliator

Alright day 1! Let's get to it. The first product is the e.l.f. Studio Lip Exfoliator.

Price: $3.00

e.l.f. Description: Gently exfoliate lips to remove dry, chapped skin with our Lip Exfoliator! A sweet sugar and smoothing sensation, infused with Vitamin E, Shea Butter, Avocado, Grape and Jojoba Oils to nourish and protect. This Lip Exfoliator treats and smoothes lips for a conditioned and revitalized feel.

Directions: Apply to clean, damp lips and massage in a circular motion to exfoliate. Use a moistened cotton pad with water to gently wipe away scrub. Follow with a lip balm or gloss to condition.

Review: I've never tried anything like this before. It felt like a face scrub but for my lips! Once I took it off, my lips did feel smoother as advertised. I used the exfoliator about 6 hours ago and my lips still feel smooth. If you are confused, this product is not a chapstick. You will still need to moisturize with chapstick or lip gloss like you usually would. Overall, I like this product!

Verdict: ★★★★★
