$6 e.l.f. dupe for Armani foundation (on sale for $3 today)

According to the Paula's Choice Facebook folks, e.l.f. Studio Flawless Finish Foundation SPF 15 ($6) is a dupe for Giorgio Armani Designer Lift Smoothing Firming Foundation SPF 20 ($65), other than the slightly lower SPF (and you can't really rely on foundation for sun protection anyway) - and they are both good shit.

Right now the e.l.f. foundation, which comes in a good range of shades, is on sale for $3 as part of their 50% off best-sellers sale. Use code INLOVE on orders $20+. The sale ends today. Check out my e.l.f. tag for reviews of some of the other things on sale now, including the studio brush set. 

Anyone tried this yet? It has titanium dioxide, so I think it might not work for me (that ingredient tends to make me break out, but I know most people don't have the problem). Damn. I almost feel like trying it anyway, for 3 bucks. (No. I won't. I do have the ability to learn. But you should buy it and tell me what it's like.)

Your Claws: A $2 Flakie!

I recently got a sizable order from e.l.f., and one of the best things in it was a nail polish called “Fairy Dust”. Now, I don’t know if there is anyone else left out there like me, who looks longingly at Essie Shine of the Times periodically, but is always too fucking cheap to buy it. But if there is, our cheapness has finally paid off!

e.l.f. now has a beautiful flakie for just $2. It’s great. It has the usual red-orange-gold-green shift of colors. Here are some swatches, with only 1 coat of Fairy Dust over a few colors:
