e.l.f. Cosmetics Review and Giveaway!

October 17, 2009

***This contest is now closed. Congratulations Heather! You will be contacted via email. Thank you for all who entered!***

Guided by celebrity and beauty professional Scott-Vincent Borba, e.l.f. (eyes lips face) was launched in 2004. This revolutionary company is able to create cosmetics that moisturize your skin, giving your complexion that natural glow without breaking the bank. The great news? These products will be available at Target beginning November 1st! I had the amazing opportunity to review the e.l.f. mini makeup collection, 2 in 1 conditioning gloss, mineral booster and mineral eye shadow.

What impressed me most about this cosmetics line is the look and feel of the makeup. When I applied the products to my skin, they felt natural. They didn’t feel heavy or “cakey.” I’ve tried other brands in the past that made me feel as though the makeup was wearing me instead of me wearing the makeup! I also have very sensitive skin and these products didn’t bother my skin in any way. Each product went on smooth and lasted the entire day. The mineral eye shadow has such a sparkle to it, too. It gave me that “natural glow” look that we all crave.

The mini makeup collection has it all! From eye-shadows, to blush and bronzers, it’s all included in one sleek compact. What I love most about this product is that I can slip it into my bag and bring it with me anywhere I go. So perfect for traveling! It has everything I need, including three brushes to boot! Whether I need it for a quick touch up or that extra beauty glow, this will be my go-to compact. It has definitely become a staple in my makeup bag.

So here’s the best part…e.l.f. is going to give one of my lucky readers the chance to win their very own 27 piece mini makeup collection!

Here’s what the collection includes:
9 eyeshadow shades
1 cream eyeshadow shade
1 blush
1 bronzer
10 lip gloss shades
1 brow powder
1 eye liner pencil
1 dual ended eyeshadow applicator and brush
1 face brush
1 lip brush

So get your groove on Theta Moms and enter for your chance to win this awesome collection!
