I have tried one E.L.F. product, and I must say, I really like it. It’s not super amazing, but it works in a pinch. I tried the All-Over Color stick, and while it is super sparkley (seriously, like something a 12 year old going to a rave would love) I like it as a highlighter on my cheeks every once in a while and I love it as a cream shadow for nights out. Never, ever use on lips, unless you enjoy looking like a robot.

I’d say, don’t buy from the website. Buy items one at a time from an actual store. I know Kmart and Target both stock these. That’s what I learned from most cheap lines (WnW, NYC, Rimmel, and now E.L.F.): there are hits and misses, and to minimize wallet damage, try out one item at a time.

I came onto the website with such high expectations. I wanted to like the products, I really did.

But in the end, you get what you pay for. Half of my order arrived after almost 2 months, and the stuff that I really wanted was not there. The shades were not as the website had pictured, and the scent. Ew.

hey BB,
I was excited when e.l.f. came to my local drugstore, but was disappointed in the quality… each item was only for $1 so i couldn’t be too mad. i made my own little quad with two shadows and and two glosses. the glosses suck! no real color just semi pasty crap. it actually smelled like hair grease. i was turned off and haven’t considered using the shadows.

[...] The Beauty Bug just received three comments in Her in box waiting for Her approval. All of the comments were for a particular ELF post where The Beauty Bug had a guest blogger panned the products. When the first comment came in, She approved it without thinking twice. Almost immediately after, two more comments came in all to the same post. The Beauty Bug scratched her head. Suspicious? She thinks so. She looked at each comment that was pending approval – one from “Lisa”, one from “Jessica” and the last from “Jennifer” who all happened to have the same email address and the same IP address. Yeah, The Beauty Bug doesn’t think so. That’s not going to fly. [...]

The only thing I will give ELF credit for is smart marketing/pr. You know they started that rumor about Bloomies virally…and it worked on me….and I work in marketing…go figure.

Hmmm, that last comment seems a little suspicious. The Beauty bug also received 2 additional comments (which she didn’t approve) from the same email address, same IP address, but from different people. May “Lisa”, “Jennifer” and “Jessica” all be from ELF? The Beauty Bug thinks so. She’s too smart for that, so don’t test Her. We all know how awful the ELF products are.

first off as a customer of elf I would like to say that I really do loveeee their products!!!

second I want everyone to know that the bloomingdales thing came to them out of nowhere and they did the best they could to complete everyones orders in a timley fashion and they are now up to date on everythingggg

3rd about their products…. I absolutly lovee their hypershine lip gloss its so shiney and also their moisture care lip color goes on soo smooth and both dont rub off when you eat and things like that. also their eye shadow colors are soo pretty on!! the best part is that you can make a compact with 4 clors in it of either eyeshadow colors or lip colors, you can mix and match..

4th I think elf should continue with what they are doing its really great how they can make all their products just $1!! how can you resist???? I think that all other make up companies should stop stealing money and should and lower their prices..

elf really is amazing!!! a $1 really does go a long way!!!
