BEAUTY ON A BUDGET - E.L.F LIP PRODUCTS


" Don't chase people, be an example, attract them, work hard & be yourself. The people who belong in your life will come find you & stay, just do your thing! "

Hello everyone, thanks for stopping by.
Recently I purchased some items from Eyes Lips Face Cosmetics also known as E.L.F. I wanted to share my thoughts on a few of their lip products.
I am so obsessed with e.l.f right now,  I recently picked up a few of their products from Target and fell in love! I then went on there website and am now even more obsessed! The prices of there makeup is amazing! The most expensive thing I purchased was $5.00! E.l.f always has sales going on and a ton of promotions. I received my makeup for buy one get one free! Also, they ship to Canada for a flat rate of $18.00. Usually they offer free shipping on orders over 35 dollars and they rebate you $8.00 so shipping is only $10.00. I received my order in about a week and a half. Pretty awesome considering they usually quote you 3 weeks. These products are great for being beautiful on a budget.
But anyways, Ill stop raving and get into the lip products!


The first product I wanted to mention is the Long Wear Lip Liner. I purchased Bitter and Mauve Luxe. These liners are unbelievable! They glide so nicely onto your lips and last a very long time! The colours are gorgeous and the Mauve Luxe is similar to the Kylie Jenner look everyone is crazy for right now.
Also, another great thing about these is how moisturizing they are. I was pleasantly surprised because usually lip liners are more on the dry side but these are great!
I would totally recommend these to everyone! They go for $ 1.00!! and you cant beat that price! It also comes packaged with a little lip sharpener! So cute!

Now, into the next 2 products! I purchased 2 of the Matte Lip Colours. The first is in Rich Red & the second is Tea Rose. The packaging on these is so chic! I love the all black matte look. All of there products look so high end & so clean cut. . The pigmentation is great and the colours you can pick from are beautiful. However, they were not as matte as I was expecting after reading the reviews.They are long lasting but not as long as I hoped. I did have to touch up a few times during the day to avoid patchiness but my lips were also super dry. These go for $3.00 so the price is un beatable. Just make sure to exfoliate your lips & I'm sure you'll be fine! I'm totally going to re-try these ones out with nice exfoliated lips!


Onto the lip sticks! The first two lipsticks are the Moisturizing Lipsticks. I picked up 2 in the colours Red Carpet & Wink Pink. They were not lying when they said moisturizing! These little suckers are amazing! They keep your lips nice and moisturized during the winter seasons. The colour is also amazing, they are also very long wearing. I also wanted to mention the sent, these ones smell a little on the sweet side with a hint of vanilla. I love that they don't have that typical lipstick smell! The packaging is also flawless and very clean cut! I'm obsessed with these! For only $3.00 you cant for wrong with these! Amazing selection of shades and I cant stop raving about the moisture these give. Great for us in Canada right now!


& lastly the E.L.F Mineral Lipsticks! I picked 2 of these up in the colours Runway Pink & Ripe Rose. I am also on the Kylie Jenner lip train and these ones are perfect for that! They also give a lot of moisture into the lips but not as much as the moisturizing lipsticks. These ones do however have that plain old lipstick smell which I don't enjoy as much as the others but that's alright! They are very long wearing & I didn't notice any patchiness throughout the day. These ones are $5.00 but totally worth it! They give you a great colour with great moisture & super long lasting. Its really your perfect lipstick!



Overall these lip products are all awesome! I wish I broke out of my shell and ordered a few different colours, as you can see I stuck with pinks and reds. I would totally recommend checking out e.l.f or your local target for some of these products. They are super affordable and long lasting! These are great for the holidays because you can switch your lip colour up as often as you would like without breaking the bank!

Hope this review inspires you to try some new lip colours and even a new brand if you haven't tried E.L.F! Enjoy
