I love ELF I used to ONLY buy high end and luxury but then a friend turned me onto ELF and it opened me to other drugstore makeup and now I’m saving lots of money lol. Only place I still spend the big bucks is eyeshadow I’m definitely a high end eyeshadow girly. Thanks for all your info and input and all the hard work you put into these videos❤

Drugstore has come a long way, give them a good chance. I'm the opposite, I only buy drugstore brands, because I can find everything I need at under $20, and it all expires regardless of the price tag.

I agree they could use more foundations. They used to have a really nice serum foundation, the Beautifully Bare foundation. It was a bit ahead of its time. They could bring it back under new marketing with skin tints so popular now.

I love so many Elf products...hydrating camo concealer, flawless finish foundation, camo powder foundation, srsly satin lipsticks, sheer lip slicks, primer infused bronzers and blushes, putty primer, new classics eyeshadow palette, bite size eyeshadow palettes and cheek palettes, brow pomade, brushes.

I love the elf Halo Glow pink powder! I bought it months ago when pink powders started gaining popularity and I love it. It is unscented, unlike the higher end brands (Huda, Givenchy, etc.) and it is so soft and finely milled!

I love me a good e.l.f. video. I have a sentimental attachment to e.l.f. When I couldn’t afford high end products, I could afford e.l.f. and still use it. I got my daughter started on makeup with e.l.f. I wish they would come back with the acne fighting foundation. Even with dry skin, I loved that foundation.

I bought my first elf product from Dollar Tree😂 Thank you for your help with the best products. Looking for some good, affordable products.

I got the CC cream because I heard it was a dupe for the It cosmetics one... I couldn't disagree more imo. It's so full coverage that I feel like if I don't use a sponge or mix it in with something it looks really cakey and heavy. I want to love it!

I have very dry sensitive skin. I love the powder foundation. I can wear it as a foundation with no problems. Very unusual for me.

Mented lip products are some of my favorites! I've been a big fan of Ami Colé lately too! I agree though- it's frustrating when a brand discontinues some of your favorites.

I went shopping for cosmetics this Monday I bought number 7 lift and illuminate foundation I do have very dry skin and thought it would be a good choice as I wouldn't need to powder when I applied it on my skin it was dead flat matt which wasn't a good look I went back to the store and purchased the elf halo glow to mix with they didn't have the spf it was out of stock I bought 2 of the elf illuminate blushes and the difference these make has saved the foundation I was made awear of these products through your channel the information and knowledge you spread with your channel is priceless thankyou for looking for and trying all these products it's a life saver xx

I too think that maybe Elf will release a new foundation soon. Every time I'm in CVS or Target it seems like they're sold out of most of their shades in the current foundation they have.

I thought I was crazy for thinking the elf wands were not good while everyone was raving about them. Glad someone else thinks the same.

I have dry skin so I really like the way Hourglass powder looks on me. I am always scared to try a different one. For the pricepoint alone going to try the Elf one. If it does not work for me it is literally $8.oo...

I'm not a hard core e.l.f. fan but I do like most products I've tried, I was excited to try the Whoa Glow sunscreen since pretty much everybody seem to like it, I finally tried it this morning and... 😳 it's awful!!! to say I ended up looking like the tin man is an understatement, I have dry skin and lean towards more on the dewy/glowy finish side but this is waaaay too much! almost a metallic-like finish 🙅‍♀️ I had to take it off, there's no way I'm gonna walk around looking like a disco ball... unfortunately it's too late to return it so to the trash it goes 🗑️😬 am I the only one that didn't like it?

I thought I was the only one who was disappointed in the glow wands.. I thought they were terrible! I used to love elf in high school, but as I'm getting older I just do not understand the hype of their products anymore. I feel like they only go "viral" because they're affordable, not because they're actually good.

I completely agree about the wands! Especially the highlighter and the bronzer, they are awful! The CC cream is also a no-go for me.. Too thick, very dry...ick!

Ooh! I have a review video of the liquid poreless putty primer on my channel ❤ just putting it out there hehe😅 🫶🏼
