Budget Beauty Essentials with Elf

There are few things I love more than some good ol’ budget beauty products and when they come from one of my favorite brands, it’s even better. I have been a long time fan of e.l.f. and everything they have to offer. Their brushes are some of the best I have used and that’s putting them up against some pretty expensive brands. The quality is just there, in everything that I have tried. They carry so many of my favorites, especially things I like to use when I’m in a hurry. There’s nothing like having awesome products on hand when you’re going for a 10- Minute Face look. I want to share some of my essentials with y’all and also give you a chance to win!

Budget Beauty Essentials with Elf

Like I said, I have been a fan of their brushes for-freaking-ever and the Essentials Professional Complete Set (12 Brushes) is a must have in my collection! I’ve been using them for years and I probably have doubles and triples of most of them so I can be sure they’re always around. I’m a little crazy, I know.  This set includes all of the Essential eyes, lips, and face makeup brushes you need to complete your flawless look. From eye shadow and liner, to concealer and foundation, the Professional 12-Piece Brush Set is just what you’ve been looking for! Another product that I have been using and loving is the Mineral Blemish Kit, it’s seriously the bomb dot com. The best part of this little magic potion powder is that it not only disguises your blemishes but it helps heal them! Awesome, right? This translucent powder has active acne fighting ingredients like natural Sulfur, Tea Tree and Willow Bark to treat acne and prevent future breakouts while penetrating deep into the pores to control blackheads. I don’t know about y’all but I seriously lack in the moisture department, one of my go-to products to combat this is the Studio Moisture Stick. This is an easy to use clear gel formulation that nourishes and hydrates the skin. Another go to for moisture is the Studio Lotion wipes, I absolutely love these!

Not only do I want to cover blemishes but I can get some pretty gnarly under eye circles from lack of sleep so I am always attached to my Studio Eye Refresh roller. The cooling sensation of the Eye Refresh rollerball brightens and refreshes the eye area to help alleviate under eye puffiness and dark circles. Infused with key ingredients Pomegranate, Rosemary, Green Tea, Cucumber and Grape to hydrate and nourish the delicate skin around your eyes. A nifty little product that all of you other glitter lovers will be obsessed with is the Essential Glitter Primer! Preps your eyelid for smoother, longer-lasting, and crease-proof glitter eyeshadow. Every girl needs the perfect lip gloss in her makeup bag, and I am here to tell you that this one is perfection! The Super Glossy Lip Shine in Pink Kiss is everything!

Some of my favorite eye shadows come from e.l.f. so I love grabbing a few of these Custom Compacts (with mirror) to hold the pans in. Each compact is super affordable and fits 4 pans. Shades that I am loving lately that are going to be perfect for Fall are taupe, dusk, pink ice and sage. As a super fan of these shadows, I can tell you that you will absolutely love them!

There you have, everything you need to build the perfect Beauty Essentials Kit with e.l.f. cosmetics! Now, what you have been waiting for!! Giveaway time! Enter below for your chance to win!

  8. My Favorite ELF product is the Studio Line Professional Blush Brush because I can use it for blush, highlight and even to contour my face.

  9. I haven’t tried any of the new E.L.F. products…it’s been so long they don’t seem to carry the mascara I used. I would give them another try due to your glowing post. esp. about the mineral blemish powder…thx for the oppty to win this pkg!

  15. My daughter loves ELF makeup and she would love to get some new makeup for the start of the school year.

  16. I have seen their products, but I have never used them before. I’d like to try them out though. Thanks for the great review!

  17. I love, love, love E.L.F. products! I have been using their products for a few years. Their eyeshadow and blemish roller are my faves.

  22. I Absolutely Love the Blush & Bronzer Duo has because it’s perfect for my skin tone and also great for travel!

  28. Girlfriend, I want your graphic design skills. How the heck did you ever come up with your super adorable pin me button? I love it! And I love elf products- they’re some of my favorites!

  31. Such a great giveaway! I haven’t tried a ton of ELF products but a lot of the ones I have I’ve been a fan of. I’m especially a fan of their eyeshadow brush. I actually need to repurchase it since mine has gone missing D:

  34. At 65, the eyerefresh rollerball is a dream come true. Then, with a level palate (so to speak) I can work on the rest of the disrepair that age brings.

  41. My favorites are their brushes because they last a long time (I’ve had mine for 4 years!) The cream eyeliners are a dream and super easy to apply. The jumbo eye shadow sticks are great because you can just swipe and go! And you can’t beat their false eyelashes. I’ve used them for my wedding and holidays. They are inexpensive but IMO are just as good as their competitors.

  45. I am just getting back into cosmetics after a long absence and don’t have much. I have one or two elf products and would love to try more.

  48. Oh I have not tried them before, but I know I would love the Studio Lotion wipes in the Vanilla Coconut! Those would be wonderful! I love anything vanilla and coconut! My two favorite scents!

  52. I have never tried any Elf cosmetics and had actually not even heard if Elf until a year or so ago. I was in Walgreens recently after a dr’s appt and saw the Elf line, which was the first time ever. I was in a big hurry but do plan to go back in this coming week and pick up several things to try. I may start with there brunches. Thanks so much.

  64. Mineral blush powder – unassuming and not too dark/light – adjusts to looking unbelievably natural.
