Even though Ellis Faas’ applicators have some kinks — mainly every so often I’ll turn and turn and no product will come out and then suddenly a ton comes-out and as a result I’ll over-apply — most of the problems I’ve had with Ellis Faas products stem from my being impatient! The brand’s colors are incredibly rich (I’m still competently obsessed with these!), and their website does a great job at showcasing what the colors actually look like. For Winter 2011 there’s a limited edition value set that comes with Ellis Faas Milky Lips L201 ($35), Ellis Faas Creamy Eyes E103
($36), and Ellis Faas Milky Eyes E209
($36). All three are bundled together for $85 (about $20 in savings). As you can see from the images above you’ll get a blood-red lipstick, liquid black and liquid neutral eye shadows…hard to go wrong with these staples and the set makes a great stocking stuffer (especially if you’re traveling because it’s super easy to pack!). Just remember not to over-apply the eye products — all of which dry quickly — because the colors are saturated (a little goes a very long way!), and over-applying can cause redness if you have any sensitivity.
