mark cosmetics!

you know, that little line from Avon for the younger crowd?

I use to order their matte powder like no one's business [its hot, btw, and so worth it], but we just got a new avon lady - a family friend, so we get discounts! so here's the stuff Im getting!



in cheeky!




in mocha! [their darkest colour is my shade]




mini brush set! which I so need!




Sheenstick Hook Up Lip Balm in Angelic!
I saw it on the We Love Beauty blog just yesterday and I had to have it!

and these two products! they have new packaging in the book, but the site hasnt updated yet:



Invisible Touch Perfecting Concealer!




Powder-Matic Go Anywhere Loose Powder!


yay! I should have it in 1-2 weeks! and I'll review it allll. =D

some of your favourite mark products?

[woo Im so excited =D]

oh, I picked that one because its a really sheer wash of pink - almost barely there! I figured I'd get nude next time we ordered so I'd have my pink and my neutral. :]

I actually love their stuff - the powder always lasted me forever, and I love the gloss - Ive yet to try some of the shadows. they have a lot of creamy ones, and theyve even a new gel liner! if it wasnt for the blush or concealer, I would have gotten the black gel liner and the copper cream shadow.

if anything, Im WICKED excited to try the concealer - I havent been able to find a decent one! and the last loose powder I invested in was a shade too light, so I now use that one when I do makeup for friends. sooo I cant wait.

I've never tried anything since I don't know an Avon lady, but that blush looks awesome!

yeahh thats another thing - I havent been able to find a blush stick anywhere. wet n wild has some, but they look way too dark for me.

Puffy...you've made me want to buy some AVON...and just my luck...everything is on sale...I want lippy and blushes

Im ALWAYS looking for the perfect blush...if this is it, Im buying enough to last me ages - Im about to do the same with this compact Ive got =D

I would love to try Mark or Avon, but I don't know an Avonlady.Oh the pain.....

Oh man this is going to be my thread..
I'll be here all month if I get going on my favorite stuff, so I'll just comment on your picks.

Just Pinched Blush Tint - it really is sheer. I use it in Sunny, and I have a fair complexion. It's not too dark on me. Love it.

C-Thru-U: my go-to foundation on beach days. Or whenever I'm outdoors, really. It's sheer, with buildable coverage. My favorite thing about this is the SPF 15.

I'm absolutely in love with our full-size brush line, which I use daily, but I keep the mini brush kit in my purse for touch ups. I actually sold one to Clinique salesperson's daughter, I guess their brushes are on the expensive side?

I haven't used the concealer, but everyone I've sold it to loves it. Same with the loose powder.

I use speedway as my concealer/foundation on most days.


I use matte-nificent over that, and it gives me that perfect complexion.

mark = love, in my book.

mhm, matte-nificent was my thing! loved it. Ive just found my perfect foundation stick, but when its gone, I'll so get the speedway, cos it looks gorge.

and the clinique brushes ARE pricey - I like using paintbrushes, becuase they kind of give a better effect, but a mini set for 15 will be fabbbb.

oo, and I KNOW you've used the hook up glosses - my first one was player! :]

Hook Ups? Naturally. I started with Pink Crush and Hot. But then I found Glossblossom and I've been using that ever since. It's a clear gloss that turns a different shade of pink for everyone, based on the amount of lip pigment.

Then I found Dew Drenched lipsticks. I have more lip stuff than I think I'll ever use..

mm, I wont be able to order glosses until I get my order - Ive just sent for a great berry shade from MK. its a really gorgeous colour thats great for fall.

and the Glossblossom always reminds me of Smashbox's O-Glow Blush - they do the same thing!

and Im actually thinking of ordering the Dew Drenched Lipsticks - are they sheer and buildable?

i know you're american, nicki but do you know if there's a british site for this stuff?
i searched but could only find british avon...but wondered if you knew if thise product was just an american thing?

wah it seems its american :[

only in america!

only avon is in the UK - but mark'll be all over soon enough!

*sob*

:]

Well, it's supposed to only ship to America, but I know some girls that have family overseas. Not sure where exactly, but they ordered from the personal sites, and they got it.

I have no idea if this would work. Sorry

The Dew Drenched lipsticks aren't traditional 'lipsticks,' because yes, they are very sheer and buildable. And wonderful, if I do say so myself

mm, reminds me of the mini one I have in this nude-y shade - I wont give it up >.<

I'll totally buy one in my next order! :]

okay, so I have the blush and the c thru u tint [everything else is on back order], and holy shit. the tint blends with my skin PERFECTLY. I can add as much as I want without it looking too heavy, so I could use this without a mirror!

and the blush? hell, its great too. I dont get much color payoff on cheeks [I am a girl of colour, thats expected], but its so creamy, and goes on really well - and its the perfect light pink for my lips. I can also say that I could use this without a mirror without fear or a clown face!

I thought they had good powder and lipgloss, hell...these are HG products now! :]

That's music to my ears!! So glad you like the stuff

totally! I even did a video review wearing the stuff!

hey i can't remember the name, but it's a oil absorbing power i think? (i hope i'm not making this up haha)
but what is it called, and is it good?

haha, I know what youre talking about.

matte-nificent oil absorbing powder!

really fab.

my revlon one is still good, so I cant get one yet,

but I totally want to get the powder buff natrual skin foundation.
