If you didn't think I was obsessed or crazy before, you will now. I've been waiting for my giant shipment of E.L.F. products to come in the mail and it's finally here! I had heard many good things about this product line and am not disappointed. I'm astounded by the color pay off of their loose
Pigment Eyeshadows. I'm not sure if Target is selling these or not. When I was there on Saturday I didn't look that hard since I knew I was getting this shipment in this week. I do have to say, the website has a lot more variety than the stand at the store. I do know that they sell some of the
$1 quad eye shadow palettes and the color pay off in those is excellent also. I was trying to make swatches of them, but my little Canon was washing out the color.
If you go on their website,
eyelipsface.com, they always have sales or specials going on. Their products aren't very expensive to begin with, but I got all of their Studio line products 50% off. All of their Studio line [except the liquid foundation] is only $3.00 an item. That is a bargin on it's own, but I got them all for $1.50! Unfortunately, you can't pile on coupon codes. I was hoping to get the 50% off and get the free shipping for buying over $25.00 worth, but it only lets you do one code per order. I saved around $15 with the 50% off code though so I'm not complaining much. I purchased 19 items all for $31.45 after tax and shipping. That is a steal and puts each item at an average of $1.65 each. Can you blame me for going buying crazy? At prices like that, I could have bought one of each color shadow and not broken the bank.
Without further ado, here is my loot.

I really like these quads a lot and think they are very pretty. When I go back to Target I'm going to see what other colors they have. I might end up collecting all of them!
I've been getting more into blushes since it's winter time and I'm as pale as my doggy's white fur. I have a few pinks and rose colored blushes already, so I thought I'd try out a soft peach color. I bought the whitish blush called Gotta Glow for the purpose of highlighting.
These were the two things that I was most excited for. One of my favorite makeup gals swears by both of these so I wanted to try them out. I thought that the bronzer was a matte bronze, but it has quite a bit of shimmer in it. It's not over powering, but it does shimmer. Since it's winter I've been wearing matte bronzer since it would look funny to have a summery glow in the middle of March.
I got the Complexion Perfection on a whim. The description and reviews were good and the idea of it is pretty cool. This product is supposed to help even out your complexion for red spots and blotchiness. We'll see if it works. I don't think that my complexion is that bad, but I wanted to see what it was like and for that price it was a no brainer. That's also why I tried the pressed powder. I'm still on the fence about all this foundation stuff, but I figured for $1.50 I'd try it.
The makeup girl said that this was her favorite eyelash curler. I had a Revlon curler, but it always pinched my skin. I will have to try this one out more and see if I like it. I do really enjoy the grip of the handles.
