You're now going to want to get your grubby little hands on these lipsticks because they have a cool little secret!
E.L.F. cosmetics are a very popular quality but cost-effective make up brand and they are about to become a whole lot more popular.
E.L.F’s moisturizing lipsticks are a fabulous hydrating lip pigment with a twist ― there’s a secret compartment at the bottom.

The bottom of the lipsticks twists off to reveal a hidden sample that makes it easier for buyers to color match, according to Refinery29. These samples should apparently also not be used as lip stick to wear - they are purely for colour matching.
THERE IS A TRAP DOOR AT THE BOTTOM AND WE LOVE IT! Twitter apparently had no idea.
Twitter user @spoopykitten discovered the twist-off sample and, in her incredulousness, tweeted out what she thought she found:

This wasn’t the only mind-blowing moment with this Twitter conversation. Twitter user @radicalkatelyn also pointed out that E.L.F’s matte lip pencils have a twist-off bottom that acts as a sharpener.
@spoopykittten also if you have the matte lip pencil things the bottom of those come off and it is a sharpener! i love elf so much
