ELF makes good budget-friendly brushes. You can buy multiple foundation brushes or eye brushes, for example, and not have to wash so often.

I've tried a lot in the line but the only items I'd repurchase is a brush & the eyelid primer.

Ditto. I purchased a kit for some ridiculous price (Disney villains) because the artwork on the packaging was terrific. The shadows and primer were good, brush was surprisingly good quality. Nail polishes; not so much.

I also have a chubby stick eyelid primer with a concoction at the opposite end that turns eye shadow into eyeliner! Great it theory; not so good in practice ${#emotions_dlg.blink}$ but I adore the primer!

I have heard such good thing about the ELF primer, so I bought this product too (it was the only version of their eyelid primer I could find in store). I thought it would replace 2 of my BareMinerals essentials...the Weather Everything liner sealer and the PrimeTime eyelid primer. I haven't tried the sealer part yet (the applicator is offputting?) but I am not at all impressed with the primer. It doesn't keep my eye makeup in place at all. I have oily lids and I think this primer is just too creamy for my purposes.

I also bought an ELF liquid eyeliner though, and I love it. I thought I might need the liner sealer over it (I'm used to a waterproof liquid liner) but it stays in place fine, and I much prefer the ELF brush applicator to the felt-tip on the Loreal liner I had been using. This one is definitely a winner!

That particular primer does behave (and apply) similar to a concealer. There are others in the line that may be more to your liking and for a buck or 2 certainly worth a look see!

Love the mineral powder for acne treatment... apply only on blemish ... it dries it as it covers. Did not care for lip exfoliator/cuticle treatment sticks/blemish sticks.

I love the Studio Prism Eyeshadow Palette. Color lasts, super easy to put on and blend, nice color saturation and no creasing. But don't bother is you don't like shimmer eyeshadow.

I also love the Studio Mineral Infused Mascara. No clumping, leaves the curl in my lashes and no flaking.

I've tried many ELF products and those are the 2 standouts for me.

Thanks, I wondered if there were others...I have looked in a few stores, and that's the only one I've seen. I will keep an eye out though, because you're definitely right about the cost!
