Ever heard of the brand e.l.f.? It can be a little tricky to find (it often sells at Big Lots!, Food 4 Less, Kmart and online of course) but if you do, you'll discover that basically everything (we're talking foundation, blush, eyeshadows, everything) cost $1.

Makeup for $1?! It sounds too good to be true, so it's no wonder TotalBeauty.com readers were skeptical. Check out their comments below, and if you want to try it out for free (hey, you can buy a lot else with that dollar), click here.

"I personally really like e.l.f. (Though you guys in the States get it at half the price that it's sold at in England!). I find their foundation brush excellent and I love the customizable palette I got from them -- the colors match effortlessly, go really well with any skin tone and create a really nice overall look." -- Bianca_S

"I haven't tried all the products, but I really like the lip gloss in a tube -- it really goes on nicely, and it has SPF in it. Best of all, my local grocery store sells it, so it is convenient as well." -- katkat

"I tried this brand and was disappointed. The eyeshadow faded as fast as I put it on (I don't have oily lids) and it didn't blend well. I tried another product in the line (lip gloss), another mistake. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your money. Stick to well known brands like Bobbi Brown, Mac, Chanel, etc. I know its expensive; but when you start adding up all the money your spending on cheaper products; well, in my check book, that makes a huge difference." -- qvcshopping

"So far I've only tried the makeup brushes, and I love, love, love them. They are so soft for a $1 a piece! I bought the 12 pack set and had a coupon so I paid $6 and I would have gladly paid more." -- yukitea

"I don't really care for e.l.f.. I had bought an eyeshadow set and some lip gloss once. The eyeshadow was really dry and crumbly and flaked on my cheeks. The lipstick seemed just plain cheap. In my opinion it's just another really cheap brand." -- hankatcar

"I REALLY like the sunkissed bronzed powder and pressed powder I bought. I now use them everyday. I tried the lip gloss in a tube and I did not like it, but my friend LOVES it." -- ShiningStars3

"I have never tried it and won't because I am a professional makeup artist and have to use products of quality. If they are only charging a dollar, you pay for what you get, you can't expect to get a Shu Uemura or Chanel quality eyeshadow for a dollar." -- muclvdgift
