I got a huge E.L.F haul today, yay!

It was all in the 50% off sale.
I got some more mineral foundation as the pot is so small it only lasted a couple of weeks. Also concealer, setting powder and an eye brightening powder, all mineral. Great mineral lipsticks in pinky/nude shades. 2 lipstains with gloss on the other end, eyebrow taming gel, contouring powder/blush set, mineral lip balm/tint, lip exfoliating stick which is genius, mineral matte blush , a lip primer and plumper (the plumper just stings, but the primer is great for blanking out the natural lip colour for a nude lipstick), and a lip liner that has a highlighter for the cupids bow, too! That'll last me a looong time! All the time I was ill, I didn't wear makeup and I even stopped moisturizing my face for 3 years, so I had to chuck most of my makeup away this year, so It's noce to have some fresh stuff to revitalize my look :) What with the chubby sticks from magainze freebies this week, I'm a happy made up bunny! What is your favourite makeup item you can't do without? Mine's got to be nude lippy.

    I've still never done E.L.F. I must have a quick glance!

    Gosh, there's a few things I utterly love. My number one is probably Giorgio Armani's Skin Master Corrector in orange. Kinda pricey but worth every penny! Especially if you're partial to dark circles like me.

    oh sorry.. it stands for eyes, lips face , it's an online cosmetics shop and it is very cheap and good quality. they also have at least 2 sales a month, often 50% off. I'v3e just discovered them fr9om lots of youtube and online beauty blogs. Cupcakey, that sounds like a fab dark circle corrector. I've got a peach colour corrector from Pixie, it is fantastic for brightening the undereyes but it creases in my fine lines.

    I am not too sure. I can be quite erratic with make up (which is a bad habit), so it depends on how often I remember to use it.

    x monsoon,, I have the mineral booster..I think it's just as good as the Bare Minerals mineral veil, and it's a big pot too.

    After a few buys with elf, i'm still love/hate with them. Mineral booster, eyeshadow/liner stick, eye transformer, eye brightening shadows & eye primer are definite favourites. Other stuff has gone straight in the bin after one use as it was rubbish.

    One thing i really don't like, i posted a 1star review for a baked shadow palette (flaked & crumbled all over the place on application, very poor pigment & colour barely lasted more than an hour) - did it ever appear on the website? No. Strange that...
