Cheap Spring Makeup from e.l.f.


Now that spring is here, Everything She Wants is looking for new beauty products and lighter, fresher mineral makeup.  So it’s only natural that I turned to e.l.f.* (eyes lips face), perhaps the bestselling makeup brand for bargain beauty-nistas.

Previously, I’ve written about e.l.f.’s magical Essential Zit Zapper (it’s only a buck).  And since my pesky breakouts persist I’m ready to try out the limited edition Spring Collection Mineral Blemish Set ($5), which promises to heal and disguise blemishes with all-natural ingredients.  The two-piece set comes with a concealer brush and translucent powder with active acne fighting ingredients like sulfur, tea tree and willow bark to treat acne and prevent future breakouts.

For spring makeup, e.l.f. has several limited-edition Spring Collection products perfect for Mother’s Day, prom, graduation and birthday gifts including: the 2-Piece Mineral Foundation SPF 15 set ($5) infused with vitamin E to condition and smooth the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines; the e.l.f. Studio 32-piece Eyeshadow Palette ($5) available in warm and cool palette shades; and the e.l.f. Essential 4-Piece Nail Polish Set ($5) with bright polish colors in Coral Dream, Flirty Fuchsia, Party Peach and Smokin’ Hot.  For only $10, diehard makeup mavens can pick up the 100-Piece Eyeshadow Palette (reduced from $20), which includes everything to go from daytime fresh and bright, to a party-ready smoky eye, to more avant garde, creative looks.

Since all e.l.f. mineral makeup is 100% free of parabens, preservatives and chemical dyes, it will help you to look your best and you can feel good about using the products, too. Plus, free shipping if you place your order today (April 26, 2012)!

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Comes to Brooklyn, June 5-8

Attending a performance of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater is always a highlight of my arts and culture calendar. An engagement with this awe-inspiring and genre-bending dance company is even better when they perform close to home at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.                                                                                                                                         Photo: Danica Paulos Ailey’s long-standing relationship with BAM began in 1969 when the trailblazing choreographer established The Ailey School in Brooklyn and presented his company’s...

Me at the Amazon Swim Shop preview. The online shop is stocked year-round with trendy and timeless swimsuit styles, cover ups and swim accessories from your favorite brands.

Now here's your turn.    One lucky reader will receive a promo code for $100 to spend at the Amazon Swim Shop (qualifying items must be sold and shipped directly by Amazon and not a third-party seller). Here's how you can win ( you must comp...
