e.l.f. Cosmetics launched an unlikely burrito-inspired cosmetic collaboration with fast-casual restaurant chain Chipotle that includes designs influenced by the eatery's Mexican-American menu. In the 10-piece collection, one of the products that's sure to become a favorite is the makeup case that resembles a foil burrito wrapper. Just 100 kits will be created and they come with a $15 gift card to Chipotle, which makes the kits even more valuable to fans of the chain.
The burrito-inspired makeup collection includes the Lip Exfoliator in "Brown Sugar" and a Bite-Size Eyeshadow Palette, as well as vibrate matte lipsticks, primer-infused blush, glittering eyeshadow and more. To round out the collection, there are also essential beauty tools like the Fluffy Eye Blender Brush and Blush Brush.
