Review - E.L.F Nail polish with some dupes!

A couple of weeks ago E.L.F had a promotion on their website where shipping was only a $1.98.  Since they are a US based company and their shipping is usually more than their product, I decided to go on a little nail polish spree!


I got 9 nail polishes for $1 each!
Above, from L to R and top to bottom, the colours I got were:
Chocolate
Hot Pink
Nude
Plum
Fire Coral
Champagne
Fuchsia
Mod Mauve
Smoky Brown

I tried a few of the colours and overall I really like the colours! Most were true to the colour in their bottle and almost all of them gave full coverage with just two coats. My two disappointments were Maude Mauve (which took 3-4 coats) and Nude (which really was "nude" as in no colour. At All).
L to R: Mod Mauve, Chocolate, Plum & Fuchsia
Thumb: Smoky Brown

Hey - for $1 each, I can afford a couple colours I'm not crazy about. And not only did I get some fun new colours, I found three great product dupes of other pricier nail polishes too!



As with all E.L.F products, you really have to try them for yourself. They have a great variety of affordable (aka dirt cheap!) cosmetics and as long as you are OK with a few duds now and then, they really are an awesome every day alternative to some of the pricier brands.
