Here in Australia we don't have drugstores, well we don't call them drugstores anyway. The equivalent i'm guessing are places like Kmart and Priceline and Target. Most of the items that I bought are from Kmart and some are from Priceline. The reason that I'm so excited about it is because they have started stocking ELF!!! Up until now I couldn't find ELF anywhere in stores, I'd heard about it in some places but had never seen it for myself! The Kmart I went to didn't have the largest selection of ELF products but I ransacked what they did have!
From ELF
I only purchased three makeup items from ELF, they didn't have the largest selection of things. or the largest colour selection. I picked up one of the blushes in Candid Coral a gorgeous shimmery coral colour, a Long Lasting Lustrous Eye Shadow in Gala a gorgeous gel eyeshadow that blends really well all over the lid and the Eye Primer and Liner Sealer. The primer end of the stick is really nice, its a nude colour that cancels out any blue tones in your eye lid. The Liner Sealer however is not the best product. Its supposedly meant to turn any eye shadow into an eye liner but once its stained with one colour you can't remove it. Not the greatest. All of these were $8 each!
I got another one of the ELF brushes because they are amazing for the price at $8 each they work just as well as the higher end brushes and they have so many to choose from. I got a small stippling brush which I used to buff out my concelear, especially when doing a highlighting and contouring look on the face this brush works so well for blending it all out.
From Kmarts Own Brand
I also found a little section that housed Kmarts own brand of makeup. First of all the packaging of it is really cute, it doesn't look cheap at all and considering the concelear was $3 and the eye shadow quad was $5 you would expect it to look cheaper then it does. These products are amazing! The concealer I got to use for contouring, its slightly too light for what I needed but it works well. The eye shadows are so creamy, so pigmented and such beautiful colours that I was not expecting it to be a Kmart brand. I'm definitely considering going back and buying more from the brand as I'm seriously impressed with it.
Other Random Bits
I picked up another Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water because I ran out of it and was having withdrawals. I also wanted to try the Yes To Cucumbers Face Wipes so I bought the travel pack. I also got another Katy Perry Purr 15ml to carry around in my handbag.
