Mini e.l.f. Haul #11

I'm a sucker for a free shipping coupon code, which is why I'm bringing you e.l.f. haul #11
I haven't tried any of these yet, I'm literally just showing what's in the order and maybe first impressions.


Studio Complete Coverage Concealer in Light, $3.00
This is one of the new items in the studio line. I love my studio foundation so much I thought I would get the concealer as well.

Mineral eyeshadow in Beachy, $3.00
e.l.f. came out with a 4 or 5 new shades of the mineral shadows and this one appealed to me the most. I absolutely love how vibrant and shimmery it is! I am so excited to wear this... not quite sure where to... but it will get worn!

Nail Polish in Party Purple, $1.00

Can I just tell you how many times I have tried to order this nail polish and with every order I get the note that it was out of stock! I was so excited to get it that I painted my nails with it last night. It's exactly what I was hoping for and I'm super impressed with the silver glitter. It's not huge and chunky like I was afraid it would be. I would say it's the fine line between shimmer and glitter. Beautiful.

Studio Angled Contour Brush, $3.00
This is the newest brush to join the studio line and first brush (other than the Fan brush because I don't understand how to use it) from the studio line that I have been disappointed in.

This is what it looks like on the website...

very angled, tightly packed, perfect for the crease...
BUT NO!
It's huge and round and giant and so inconvenient for anywhere near the eye. Please go back up to that picture I took compared to a rather thick nail polish lid... barely smaller.
Dear e.l.f. What were you thinking when you made this brush?!
It reminds of a tiny version of the flat top powder brush. How am I supposed to use this anywhere on my face let alone the eyes...
Maybe I can use it for stippling on concealer. Oh actually that might not be a bad idea. I am going to try that out and let you know if it works.

Studio Endless Eyes Pro Mini Eyeshadow Palette – Limited Edition, $5.00

After all the great buzz going around about this palette I decided it was time I picked it up. It has 32 eyeshadows and I must admit I am as impressed as everyone else. The colors in here are awesome. There are 1 or 2  so packed with chunky glitter that they are impossible to apply but 2 out of 30 is okay in my book. The rest are extremely smooth and pigmented. I swatched a few below...





And the free gift...
Brightening Eye Color in Butternut
I already got this quad for free but the shades in this one are actually really smooth and pigmented so I'm actually glad to put this one in my eyeshadow drawer.


That's everything! Let me know if you have tried any of these especially the brush and the concealer. I want to know if anyone is having luck with these products!


xoxo
