Avon True Color Multi-Finish Eyeshdow Quad



I don't know if you guys remember but years ago I used to buy Avon a lot, especially their lipsticks and nail polishes but I never got to try their eyeshadows.

Not long ago, I recieved this quad as a pressie from my friend Ceci and I have to say, I am impressed with their quality.


They are the Avon True Color Multi-Finish Eyeshdow Quad in "Chocolate Sensation." Checking their site, they have many more quads with different complementary shades.
They have the perfect size to carry around with you and they come with 4 shades to create looks for both, day and night.

They come with numbers to give you an idea of how and where to apply them to create a certain look but I think you can experiment as you want and even mix them with other colors.


It comes with 3 shimmers: Shimmery beige (#1), Milk chocolate (#2) and Truffle (#3). And 1 matte: Black Brown (#3).
The plastic compact looks really clean and doesn't feel chap. It also comes with a mirror and applicator sponge.


The eyeshadows are very pigmented and easy to blend. It is so nice to apply them! Durability wise, they last throughout the day looking almost perfect at the end of it.


These colors are great for every skin tone and are easy to match with almos every lip shade. That's a plus.

just me, plying with the quad, hehe.



All in all, these eyeshadows were an unexpected good surprise, I could compare the quality with eyeshadows from Sephora or other more expensive brands out there. Defo worth it!

Kyoto Flower - Spring scent!



Hi hi!
I recently got a new perfume and even tho I don't usually blog about perfumes, this is way too cute so, I just have to.

It is the Avon Haiku Kyoto Flower Perfume which apparently is a part of a line called Haiku. I honestly had no idea there was such thing until I got this perfume. Now I'm curious to try the rest of the products.
The first thing that caught my eye was the beautiful presentation. The whole concept is just too girly and cute. It's like a pink pagoda with little sakura! And everything sakura is a must for me. Hehe.
I remember when one of my coworkers saw it, she said the perfume has "Mon" written all over~


Moving on to the actual scent, it is a little different from what I usually look for in perfumes. I like really sweet scents and this one is more of a floral and fresh fragrance. According to the description in the box, it is a "tranquil bouquet of violet leaves and white peony, blended with blissful cotton musk" (now, that's a fancy description, I just suck at describing scents...!)
In my words it's a fresh, flowery scent, perfect for Spring time!

So, I definitely think this will be my perfume for the season, and I love to have it on display in my room cuz I really find it pretty to look at. I'm also sure this one is a perfume my mom will love so, I got one for her too.


Have you tried the other Haiku products? If so, any recommendation?

🍑 Fruity Spring! 🍉



Hello sweets!
Today I have a mini Spring haul type of post. Considering Spring is here and it's all about the happy and bright colors I decided to go all fruity! (I'm not really a flower person so...yeah. Fruits will do)


I recently started buying some AVON products again, mainly because it's easier for me to just order things instead of going out to buy them~ #WorkingLife. 

First are these two super fun AVON Color Trend Nail polishes, they are both fruit inspired and I think they will be perfect for the Spring/Summer season and a good addition to the nail polish family. 
I was expecting to recieve 3 of them but they didn't have the other color I asked for. 
The ones I got are "Watermelon" and "Kiwi". I'm really looking forward to use them!

Kiwi


Next is the AVON Color Trend lipstick in "Peach."
At first I thought it would be more of a...well, peachy, orange-ish color but it actually is a really beautiful soft pink with a slight hint of a coral tone. It is supposed to be a hydrating lippie.
It is very sheer and creamy.






Lastly, I bought some fruit nail accessories that...I'm not even sure if I'm gonna use all of them but I definitely want to use the watermelon and kiwi with my nail polishes. They are absolutely adorable and colorful. Best thing was, they were super duper cheap.



And, that is it for my mini spring fruity haul. I don't even know where that love for fruits is coming from but yeah, I'll enjoy it for now!
What are you going for this Spring? Flowers? Fruits? Colorful bugs? (lol) Let me know!!

Haul: Avon makeup, skin care & accessories









One of my friends and co-worker sells Avon, so I always get the newest catalogues. I like Avon because I always find some cute things to get for really good prices! Yeah, sometimes I end up buying things I don't really need but, oh well~ I can experiment with their products without spending too much money.
What I usually buy are lipsticks! Color Trend is definitely one of my favorite things to check because they always have bright, fun colors, and the quality is good, can't complain. I already have a few!

This is what I got this month:

♥ Avon Color Trend "Vibrant Coral" (M1504) Since it's orange, I /had/ to buy it! I love orange lipsticks and this one is really pretty! Even though it looks like a strong color, it looks very subtle and natural once you apply it. I wonder how many orange lipsticks I have so far...

Vibrant Coral (M1504)

♥ Avon Health Essentials pink hair towel. I saw a DIY video (on SecretLifeOfABioNerd) for this kind of towels a while ago and I was so determined to make one! I even had the fabric and stuff but, it never happened~ I ended up using that fabric for something else... So I was really excited when I saw this one for sale! It is really cute and easy to wear! The only thing I'm not too happy about is it makes my head hurt after a while since it's a bit bit tight. I kinda want to decorate it a little to make it look...cuter?

This is not the best pic I cout get but it kinda shows how the towel looks like once you wear it. It has a little button on the back to keep everything in place~
♥ Avon ClearSkin Pore Penetrating scrub. I've been using this one for a while now and I love it! It feels really fresh and it's gentle to my skin. This is my kind of scrub because it is kinda dry(?) so you can actually feel those little pearls working! I use it twice a week. I was already running out of product so, it was time to get a new one. It lasted a lot though!
♥ Avon Ideas pink heart eye liner pencil sharpener. I kinda needed one and seeing how cute this one was, I bought it. It has a whole for regular eye liner pencils and a bigger one for chunkier(?) ones. It's also very easy to clean.
♥ Avon Color Trend Eye Liner in "Hot Coffee" My mom was the one who bought it but she ended up giving it to me. I'm into brown eye liners at the moment so I'm giving it a try.

I already ordered some other things that will arrive next month~ but for now, I'm happy with what I got.

Kiss n go! Red



Hi dolls!

Since I was so happy with my last Color trend lipstick I decided to order other bright colors for the Summer. For those who wonder why I order so many stuff from Avon is because one of my friends at work is selling them and it's easy for my to order and try new stuff. Plus, lipsticks have been working great with me for really good prices.

This time I bought Avon Color Trend "Pop Red" I don't wear red lips often cuz I feel like they pop out way too much on my pale face but, I'm having fun with this one.




Plus, it's not like it's a deep, dark red, it's actually a bright color. It also keep my lips hydrated and durability is great.

Red kiss! X
