e.l.f. in stores + wedding
Oct 20, 2008
in Beauty
So, I was in a Pathmark buying some finishing touches for my wedding, centerpiece accessories, bathroom loot, stuff like that. And what did I see? e.l.f. in a store, in a "bargains" aisle instead of the makeup aisle, no less.
For those of you who aren't familiar with e.l.f., it's fair to good quality makeup and brushes for $1 each.
So I rabidly snapped up one or three of everything (this was a pain in the butt in the self-checkout line, but ultimately worth it) and gleefully plotted returning all of the disposable makeup applicators I bought from Sally for the wedding.
I had never before seen a single e.l.f. product in a store. Two days after my wedding, I discovered more e.l.f. in a random non-chain drugstore in my neighborhood. (A lot of the best stuff was already entirely sold out, boo! But I did get an eyelash curler and a couple of other things. Because why not?)
Anyway, have you guys been seeing e.l.f. around? Where?
And for those who were curious, there are links to full picture sets from my wedding at my blog.

Congrats on the wedding! Also, how/where do you know the lead singer of the Slackers from? I saw them open for Flogging Molly a couple years back - they put on a good set.
Congrats on the wedding and finding great bargains! I'm going to have to keep my eyes open...I could always use more makeup brushes.
Chris, the Slackers are NY-based and the hubbs and I grew up on NY/LI ska and punk. They're pretty much an institution around here. But we don't specifically know Vic, except that we go to a lot of Slackers side project stuff that less fans show up to. Listen to Vic solo stuff! I think you'd *get* it. Anyway, they played the wedding and they hung out a bit before and after so we nerded out on books with Vic.
And thank you both for the congratulations!
No, I totally haven't seen them at Target. That's awesome because there's one Target near me that a lot less people go to so maybe they won't be sold out of the best stuff if they're stocking it there.
congrats on your wedding. And the makeup I know nothing about. Never been good at it.
elf is amazing!! fyi, you can also order it off their website.
Yeah, they were previously only available at the website. I hate paying for shipping, though! That's why it's so exciting they're in stores.
