if you have this brush, can you give me your opinion? i tried checking out my local Target but they don't carry the E.L.F. line there. or if you've even seen it in a store, can you tell me if it's hair or foam tip?

thanks.

hey sorry for the delay,, but i did happen to grab that particular brush and it is foam tipped. sadly never used it and i think i have two of em too lol. nothin like the 219, i have 2 from the patternmaker sets from last year hth

I heard their shipping system's crappy, someone got their package like 4 months later and their customer help line stinks too . So i am kinda skeptical about buying their stuff. But since I heard so many rave reviews about their products, iw anna give it a shot! So i was wondering if anybody encountered any bad shipping crisis with ELF?

[MsButterfli]

i had no problems with my order, i received mine within about a week when i ordered.

Me too. I've ordered three times and this was the case every time.

I'm in Canada and have ordered from them 4 times. Each time the order has reached me in about 8 days (which is good believe me). In my first order they forgot two things. I let them know and they apologized, and they shipped them out the next day. I've had really good experiences with them.

I like their brushes but I'm not experienced with really good ones so I can't judge for sure. I like their shadows ok as well.

i know some ppl seem to love e.l.f. -- but i'm really not a fan. yeah, it's cheap and it's decent for a dollar, but in the end, you're always going to end up reaching for your better stuff anyways -- because, come on, it's better!!! i dropped like $25 on that site a while ago, convincing myself that i was saving so much money since it was so cheap. the only time i've used it was to test it when it first arrived.

it is a good place for a guilt free haul though....lol

i ordered like 10 of their quad palettes the other week and now im gonna go try out some lashes because i get free shipping if i order from them within 30 days and then theres the 50% off stuff. so eh its cheap

i got mine within a week too. i think thats because we are close to them since they are based in NY

[ReddieFreddie5]

I don't like anything of theirs except the brushes. The makeup did not impress me at all. No color to the eye shadows even with a good primer. And the heavy fruity scent of the lip and skin stuff is overpowering and nauseating. I like the brushes, though.

I live in Canada and I ordered from them about a week ago. I just got an e-mail today saying they just shipped it, and that I have to wait another 5-7 days. So that's two weeks for like, four things. I personally think that's kind of a long wait but I'm not one to complain. I just really want to try some of their stuff, since I've heard so much about it. Hopefully it'll get here within the next few days.

I just went to browse around on there... And when I tried to leave, something kind of like MAC live chat popped up and started trying to talk to me. Very odd. I felt ambushed and closed the window.

[anaaliyahfan03]

i just got my e.l.f. in the mail today and they ran out of some stuff so they couldnt send me everything..they said they are going to credit money back to me, but i didnt want that..they ran out of the lashes and 2 other lipglosses that i ordered..i ordered 8 lashes and i couldnt get them because they were sold out..and as for the quality of them makeup..its cool..i just got lipglosses, a lip balm, and blushes (which one of them broke during delivery) and an eyeshadow compact..the only thing that i will be ordering from them again is the compacts and some of the lipglosses..everything else i'll stick to other brands

[Danapotter]

I ordered on July 23rd and got an email yesterday saying it should be here in a week.



I really want my ELF package! I thought they were based in NY? So, why is my order taking so long?

[dior688]

for the price of $1, the quality is pretty good. I tried the e/s brush, didn't disappoint me!

[xiahe]

i heard their brushes are decent so i'm DYING to try those. and also the 4-pan palette is only $1 so you can't beat that! unfortunately i'll have to wait another couple of weeks until i go back to school b/c none of the Target stores in my area carry them, only the one out by school does.

[AppleDiva]

I like the ELF quad palette, the e/s brush. I have the foundation and bronzer brushes, but I have not used it. I do not like the Blush brush, very scratchy... I have a few lashes, but I have never used them, BUT I will soon!!

[katina]

I have an eyeshadow quad and a few eyeliners. I love the eyeliners but don't really like the eyeshadows.

[Danapotter]

I love the powder! The pressed powder is my HG. I use it every day now!

[Twinkle_Twinkle]

The ELF quads fit MAC shadows right? I just want to double check before I submitt my order.

Thanks for the picture!!

[shanidy]

the lashes look nice! What size pans do the palettes fit?

[sophistichic]

I went onto ELF and I'm a bit tempted to buy their brushes, just because I need a good quality travel set because I don't want to risk losing my expensive MAC brushes... I hate planes sometimes, they've lost so much of my luggage... So what do you think ladies?

Why haven't you brush rolled and put them in your carryon?

[sophistichic]

That would be the smart thing to do, but I have a habit of losing things even on the plane. I have to bring up my laptop, a million binders, and my floor plans and designs (I'm an aspiring architect)... It's not that hard to forget a bag... I'm a doofus...

Plus, when I'm in hotels and stuff I forget to bring them with me when I'm transferring from place to place. When I realize it, it's too late to go and call the hotel back...
