E.L.F. Cosmetics?

I've heard so much about E.L.F. Cosmetics lately. They are actually called Eyes Lips Face, but in short they are known mostly as E.L.F. cosmetics. I've always checked their site, but was kind of weary about the company since the prices were REALLY low. No joke at all. Everything ranged from $1-$5 for individual items and makeup sets and kits would range from $15-$30.  The prices seemed too good to be true.  I've been unsure of how the quality would be of the makeup from that company.

I do own an E.L.F. brush though. I currently own the E.L.F. Powder Brush:
This brush is fantastic for being a multi-purpose brush.  It works great to stipple liquid foundation, apply powder, blush, bronzer, and can just about be used for anything on the face.  The price itself is $3! $3 for a brush.  The brush did fall apart once, but strong glue fixed it back up and feels better than new.

So to go along with what I was saying before, I made a huge purchase from the E.L.F. site consisting of 20+ items and all for an amazing price of $24 + $6.95 shipping.  Shipping was surprisingly not too expensive since I ordered so many items.  Actually, the total price was $54, but I used one of their coupon codes that let me choose 10 mineral eyeshadows ($30 value) for free.  I want to say I took the splurge, but considering that I'll be getting more than 20 products for around $30, I can't say that I did.  Now, I'm waiting patiently for my items to get to my place, but the estimated delivery day shows May 4.  I'm going to try to wait patiently before it comes in.  I ordered a bunch of lip products and face products.  I also ordered a few of their signature brushes.  Here are some of the exact things that I ordered.

So that pretty much summarizes what I should be receiving from them.  Once I receive everything, I will make sure to take pics of swatches and do an overall review. The reason why I bought so many lip products is because I saw so many good reviews of their lip products. :)
I hope I made the right decisions!
