Super Eye Event is HEEEREE!!


I am so excited about this deal. Right now, Avon has a wonderful price on eye makeup must haves. Certain items are on sale, 1 for $4.99, 2 for $8.99 and 3 for $11.99.
I am going to get 3 for $11.99, since I can't even buy one dept store mascara (and some drugstore mascara's are $8.99 or more) for this price.
Here is what I am getting:

Supercurlacious mascara (reg $8.50)

Denim Blues eyeshadow quad (reg $8.00)...this reminds me of the "denim" eyeshadows in Bobbi Brown's denim and rose collection.

Big Color Eye Pencil (liner & shadow in one easy pencil) (reg $6.00)

p.s. There is also free shipping with order of $30 or more. Code is FS30REP

Daily Tip

Here is today's tip:
When trying to see if a lip color will look good on you, instead of trying it on the back of your hand, try it on the PALM of your hand, near the edge. Apparently this skin is closer to your lip color than the back of your hand! Trying it on the back of your hand is a way to get a sense of the color itself, but not necessarily how good it will look on you.

Daily Tip

For a quick way to look more "awake" look, dab a bit of brightening eyeshadow on the corners of your eyes.
My fave colors are Bobbi Brown's "Beach Honey" long wear cream eyeshadow and MAC's "Bare Study" paint pot.

I am going to find a nice MARK by Avon matchup.

Ordering & My Quick Get Ready! (and you say you don't have time for makeup?!)


Well, it is time for me to place my personal order with Avon.
Here is what I am getting:

Outspoken fragrance samples-New fragrance from Fergie, I am really interested to smell it, apparently it has notes of black leather...apparently Fergie smells like leather. not sure if this smells like a car or what.

Mark "celebrate" Fragrance-just got a preview of this new scent and it is wonderful! Has citrus, florals and woods notes.

More lipgloss-since its only $2.49, I am getting clear, tickled pink and intense plum. Click here to see

I also wanted to share my makeup MUST DO's! These do not take a lot of time and really make you feel better/look better in a snap!
1)concealer under the eyes (Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit)
2)eyeliner (I used Avon Glimmersticks eye liner in Blackest Black (It is an Allure Reader's Choice Best Eyeliner!!) layered with Avon's ULTRA LUXURY Eye Liner in Limited-Edition Shade of Midnight Sapphire
3) Mascara-duh!
4) LIPGLOSS!!
That is it, so fast and easy, and I feel and look so much more awake after putting these on!

July 18th Pick List


Right now, Avon is having a great sale on nail polish! They are $2.99 each, regularly $4.50. My fave is the Speed Dry nail enamel (the regular enamel is on sale too, with a great range of colors). Just like OPI brand, it does not contain any formaldehyde, toluene or phthalates, and dries in under 30 seconds. This is great because I do not have a chance to go around with a baby and wet nails. Plus the color lasts and lasts, my toe color still looks great after 2 weeks! Here is the link, Shop polish here. My fave colors are electric purple, mambo melon and strawberry. OHHH and lipgloss is on megasale...$2.49 reg $6..love these, I think I have like 4, my picks: Darling pink, mauve movement, and clear. shop glosses here

Also...sneak peek...get ready to save $$$ with the eye event starting soon!


The rundown:
Nail polish $2.99
Gloss $2.49

Hello there!

Welcome to my blog! I started this blog to share my obsession with cosmetics. I sell Avon, and I wanted a way to share my finds with you! Avon is not the only brand I buy, there are plenty of other drugstore and department store brands that I like, and will talk about here. I started Avon last year, right before my baby was born...so I have not really gotten into it too much, but now I am ready. I started selling Avon for 2 reasons:
1) I constantly buy lipgloss, etc and I know Avon has some good stuff that is very affordable, so this is a great way for me to try out new products.
2) To help me get out of my comfort zone and become a sales person!

Anyways, I am going to be posting what I would buy from Avon-the best deals at the time, and hopefully inspire you to enjoy makeup and cosmetics. Makeup should be fun! I don't get to do makeup, etc every day, but it is fun to collect and when you have time to use it, is great to have! Anytime I have a free shipping code I will share it with you!
