Must-have New York cosmetics brand e.l.f has unveiled its stylish new packaging with hot new additions - which can now also be discovered in Australian retail stores.
Previously only available to Australians via
www.eyeslipsface.com.au, the brand's leap into retail means everyone can now get hold of the new-look e.l.f range - and at the same price of only $2.95 each!
Exclusive to Kmart, the clever new e.l.f Elements range means you can now create your own customised compact. Start with a sleek and stylish mirrored compact ($2.95), then mix and match with a selection of eye, lip and face colours in your desired shades ($2.95 each).
Other hot newcomers to hit Australian shores include e.l.f Plumping Lip Glaze, e.l.f Super Glossy Lip Shine SPF 15, e.l.f Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder and e.l.f All Over Color Stick - all available in selected Terry White Chemists from October 2006 for $2.95 each.
e.l.f has captivated media attention worldwide since its launch in 2003. CNN headlined "A pretty face that wont cost an arm and a leg" (January 2006) and examined the phenomenon of women with expensive tastes gravitating towards cosmetics without the high-end price.
Joey Shamah and Scott Vincent Borba, creators of e.l.f, said the idea came after seeing 99-cent stores in Los Angeles, California, with BMWs and Mercedes in the parking lot and women wearing high-end designer clothes inside buying low price cosmetics.
"I saw all these women with Louis Vuitton purses, and they were just buying truckloads of lip balms and nail polishes," Borba said. "And I thought there's a major market here."
