This spring, Chipotle fans are being treated to a brand-new e.l.f. x Chipotle collection that celebrates real ingredients in a fun way through cruelty-free, vegan cosmetics. The color cosmetics collection includes a 12-piece eyeshadow palette with a mix of shades inspired by classic ingredients like pinto beans, corn salsa, lettuce, sofritas and more. There's also the Make It Hot Lip Gloss, an avocado-shaped sponge and a makeup bag that looks like it holds tortilla chips.
Last year, Chipotle's first launch with e.l.f. sold out in less than four minutes, so fans will want to get their hands on the crave-worthy collection as soon as they can before it's gone. Targeting Gen Z, the e.l.f. x Chipotle collection can be found on both collaborators' sites, plus the mobile-first virtual shopping platform, NTWRK.
