If you're an elfette, you may know that E.L.F. just had a sale 50% off their new Spring Collection. I waited until that last few days - not sure what to buy - until ordering.
E.L.F. already has great prices on their cosmetics, but I only order from them when they have a good sale going on, for 2 reasons. 1, it will help limit how often I go on my shopping sprees. 2, I get double as many products as I would with the same amount of money sent.
Anyways, this haul isn't too big, but it's not limiting my excitement! :D
From the Essential Line, I ordered
1. Blush & Bronzer Set
Normally: $3.00
ELF's Description: Create a healthy, natural glow all year long with this limited edition Blush & Bronzer Set. The Blush highlights the cheeks to add a flush of color, while the Bronzer accents and contours cheekbones for beautiful definition. Includes a Mini Kabuki Brush for flawless application.
My Thoughts: I thought this would be a nice little combination - not like I need any more blushes - but I don't really have a bronzer from elf that isn't in a set. I was't however too excited about this, because the colors looked muted, I don't know, I guess I'm just a sparkly gal! :)

2. 3-Piece Hypershine Gloss Set
Normally: $3.00
ELF's Description: This limited edition Hypershine Gloss set features a sheer, glass-like shine infused with micro-mirror technology to reflect light. The formula smooths lips on contact with a conditioning shine that lasts for hours. Create a natural color that's subtle and beautiful! Mix and match colors for a custom blended shade.
My Thoughts: I do like these colors a lot more, except the brownish maybe purple color (in the picture it's the one in the middle). I don't know, I just don't usually use those colors on my lips. But I am really excited to see how this turns out. I haven't used their Hypershine Gloss, but I have used their Super Glossy Lip Shine and their Luscious Liquid Lipstick. I loved them both.

3. 4-Piece Shimmer Gloss Set
Normally: $5.00
ELF's Description: Shimmer and shine with this dazzling assortment of Shimmer Glosses. Mix and match colors to create your own custom blended shade or pick your favorite individual color to reflect your personal style. The satin smooth formula glides on easily to instantly hydrate lips for a beautiful long-lasting shine.
My Thoughts: Yay more lippies!! Once again, I love the colors except the first brownish tan one. I'll try it, but it's not my color :( anyways, I will definitely use the other colors as long as they arrive looking like they do on the website. I haven't used this type of lip gloss, but e.l.f. is usually pretty good -in my experience- with their lip products.
