Today I want to share my cute little e.l.f. cosmetics haul with everyone. I got to know about this brand from IMBB posts. Well, I went through their websites which was pretty intriguing – everything was worth of $1! But unfortunately they did not ship to India, and we don’t get e.l.f. in Kolkata either. So, I requested Aarthi to request her sister to bring me some e.l.f. stuffs. She was very nice; she kept my request. Her sister got all the stuffs I had asked for and when she came to India Aarthi courriered me all the stuffs.
I started to buy makeup products just after I bumped into IMBB a few months ago. I love to collect eye makeup products. So, I ordered some eyepencils, an eyeshadow and a mascara. It came in a plastic e.l.f. pouch.
I ordered 4 eyepencils, one eyeshadow quad and one mascara. They were for $1 each. So I had to pay INR 270 for the products and INR 130 as the shipping cost from Chennai to Kolkata. That means I got all the stuffs for INR 400.
I got four e.l.f shimmer eyepencils – black bandit, boldly bronze, passionate plum and twinkle teal;
One e.l.f. brightening eye quad in punk funk;
an e.l.f. duo mascara in black.
I got an e.l.f. shimmering facial whip in ‘toasted’ as a free gift from e.l.f.
Aarthi decorated all of them with cute little stickers :).
Last but not the least, Aarthi sent me a Petal Essence eyeshadow trio sample as gift 🙂 :). Thank you Aarthi, u r so sweet :). The shade is called Azure rain. It’s a beautiful trio, perfect for everyday use.
Here, this is how Azure rain looks on my eyes,
Well, that was my little haul. I want to thank Aarthi and her sister for bringing me them. Aarthi arranged everything despite she was so busy with her newborn daughter. She answered every single mail I sent her and she’s always been so nice and polite to me. She could have rejected my request in the first place, because I was a total stranger to her. But she trusted me and helped me. We might never meet in person in our life, but we would always be friends :). I have never imagined in my life that I would get chance to make so many friends through IMBB. Well, in case if I ever visit Chennai, I would definitely like to meet her and her daughter. That would be fun :).
I requested Rati to let me review all the products I got. She approved :). So guys, I will soon be coming up with the reviews. Till then, take care and bye bye 🙂 :).

Bulbul, enjoy you awesome haul..I am soo curious about the eye pencils..I am guessing that you cannot wear them on your waterline since they are shimmery but the shades look gorgeous.. :waytogo:
Aarthi. :-*
yep, the shades are gorgeous. but they are not too shimmery. u can easily wear them in daytime. :toothygrin: i hav never applied them on my waterline. i always apply kajal on my w/l. :bully:
me too… :clap: :clap: :clap: rightly said, quite surprising that such wonderful friendships develop between strangers thru IMBB..Rati, :bravo:
I love elf! I am from America and they started selling elf in my local target… Hopefully they learn that Indians want their stuff too 🙂
