Let's talk MAKE UP

Make-up... gotta love it! costs a fortune and makes you look good looking. Okay so not ALL makeup is expensive but if you want your face to look natural and not cakey you kind of have to spend a few extra buckaroos on a high end brand of makeup right?... well at least i do.

i had horrible acne and was a horrible zit picker! i was spending so much money on makeup to cover up my ugly zits and scars i had from picking. i tried bare minerals (which was ok) a few other ones that i cant even think of and they just didn't satisfy me especially when i was spending a butt load each month!

about 2 years ago i started ordering a few things off of elf.com i really liked their lip glosses and lip sticks i was getting from them i decided to expand my horizons and order concealer and foundation (risky huh)...man am i glad i did! i order the mineral foundation and concealer and i love it! it covers up my scars and zits when i get them and makes my face look fresh and it doesn't feel cakey. i love it! also its CHEAP!! sometimes you can get lucky and get their mineral products half off and shipping is about $6 like any other place. but most of the times its spend $25 get shipping free. i order once a month and spend $25 even if i do get the half off deal i still try to just keep it at $25 and that still gets me alot of product. The foundations are pretty small tubes but i find that one lasts me about 2 weeks and i usually order 3 foundations and 1 concealer (the concealer lasts longer since i don't have to use much).

They have alot of other great products that i love. like i mentioned above their lip glosses are awesome! and they have the perfect nude lip stick! their eye shadows are great and last the whole day! oh and i cant forget the nail polish!! i pretty much own every color they have the brushes kinda suck but not bad for $1.

Go check out their site you cant go wrong with any of the prices. everything i have ordered i have loved! and iv ordered alot from their site if you have any questions about anything feel free to ask me what i thought! the nice thing too is that they let people review each of their products so you can view those reviews on the site.

  1. So you like ELF mineral foundation more than Bare Minerals? Hmmmm, I'll have to look into that; I use Bare Minerals but I've been trying to save money lately!

  2. Oh for sure!! It's totally worth a try for $5 you can't go wrong!! Especially when you get it half off which they have that sale at least once a month. I do suggest using a primer it helps a ton with mineral makeup lasting longer. But you might already know that :)

  3. You think mineral foundation has nice coverage? I've always stuck with a liquid foundation because I thought a mineral one might not give me enough coverage. I've never tried one before...any other suggestions?

  4. Shardi I have pretty oily skin so liquid makes my face feel clogged and cakey.. What I do is put on a face primer then a under eye cover then the mineral concealer the. The mineral foundation and it works great for me and gives me enough coverage to cover my acne scars and it doesn't make me break out or feel cakey. If your hesitant to try it I'd wait until they have the mineral makeup half off then try it out. But I highly suggest using. A primer when using mineral makeup it makes it last longer!
