The Penny Pinching Fashionista

Just recently I was in Dollar General picking up a few things and stopped in the makeup section. Now, I don’t typically purchase makeup from Dollar General but I saw a line of makeup brushes that really caught my attention. 

The name of the collection is E.L.F. I have always wanted my only collection of makeup brushes because I love the concept of them and what they can do. Unfortunately I could never bring myself to paying $14 or more on a makeup brush. These brushes on the other hand were about $1 each and although I knew the benefits of good quality brushes I said to myself “$1 is totally worth the experiment.” So I purchased about eight different brushes and I have to tell you that these brushes are AWESOME, after looking through the internet it turns out that even their reviews aren’t bad. They even have a studio line that’s supposedly even better and for only $3. This line of brushes are amazing, the quality is not bad at all and it’s totally worth buying, especially if you are like me and can’t bring yourself to spending too much on a brush. 

My Collection 

• The Foundation Brush – This brush is amazing, it’s nice and smooth and he bristles are in place. It gives you that flawless coverage but it’s not too heavy as if using a sponge to apply your makeup. 
• The Total Face Brush – This one is probably my favorite brush out of the bunch! It’s so soft and it holds the powder so well, all you need is one swipe of your loose powder and you’re completely covered! 
• Blushing, Bronzing and Blending Brush – Another excellent brush, its perfectly contours along the side of your eyes and cheeks, so you don’t have to worry about getting your blush or bronze in places you don’t want to. 
• Eye Shadow Brush – I am an eye shadow buff, so when I tell you I love this brush I mean it! It’s another soft brush that holds the shadow so nicely and blends in evenly along your eyelids. You don’t have to worry about seeing the lines of the two different shadows, if you ever have this issue, the brush smoothes out everything for an even flawless look! 

So to all my makeup buffs out there check out E.L.F. you can also use their store locator to find a store near you that supplies their products. HAVE FUN!

Smooches,

Chantal
