I'm skeptical when it comes to mascara because SOOOO much of what you buy is just crap (sorry to be so blunt, but being honest here)! You spend $40 on a department store brand and it looks good for a week then starts to fade. You hear and read reviews about the cheap drugstore brand who's been around for years and yet you use it an it clumps, fades, gets stuck in your contact lens or after an 8 hour work day you look like a racoon. It often makes me wonder who's advertising in these magazine and paying these writers and editors to claim the fame of these brands.
I'm here to tell you the honest truth. I wasn't going to buy Super Drama mascara from Avon but I did. I figured, hey I'm a rep, I can return it. After all, Avon has a 100% garauntee on your satisfaction, no questions asked which I ABSOLUTELY love (you can't get THAT at the Clinique, Estee Lauder, Rite Aid or Walgreens counter). And, even if you returned every mascara you HATED, with GAS prices the way they are it would cost you double just for the hassle. ANSWER: LET the AVON representative come to you, pick UP what you are unhappy with and deal with it.
Anyway, back to the product: I bought it, and love it, period. Not much more to say than that! :) I've never tried a mascara with a fan brush like this. It stays on all day, doesn't get in my contact lenses and doesn't fade into my eye sockets like a football player on crack! lol
Believe me if you want, don't believe me. Just being honest and THAT is a trait not too often found in this world. If there's something I've tried and don't like, you'll be sure to hear about it.
Happy beauty days ahead for this woman!

Naked, Nude, whatever
OK. I have started something I've never done: a video documenting anything; period. Afraid of ALL freakin' cameras I have set out a quest to document 30 days of Avon products whether I like it or not.
Today, I've started by removing the face of the public, removing my makeup and putting on the cream; GENICS by avon. Nice price, nice bottle. I hate, absolutely HATE the wrinkles on my forehead so PLEASE work!!
I absolutely DO LOVE the Avon eyeshadow quad and minerals foundation. NOT many sales rep's will be honest but I AM and I hope it's rewarded in the end.
Let the bad comments from YouTube begin. I'm NOT afraid of you!!
Best Wishes,
Trish

In Love Again
I'm VERY picky when it comes to some things; then again, I'm pretty calm and relaxed about other things. I'm sure everyone can relate. I'm SO very tired of lipsticks that make my lips sticky, make my lips peel, or just are not worth the drugstore $14 price tag or the department store $40 price tag; especially ones with NO guarantee.
I thought I'd give Avon's new Shine Attract lipstick a try, right now it's on sale you buy one for $9 and get another color for $1.99. I saw the ad with Reese Whitherspoon and she claimed she wore the color Passionate Red. I'm a little scared of bright red lipsticks but this one really knocked my socks off!
The lipstick color is so pretty, it comes wrapped in it's own clear gloss. It went on smooth and the red was very compatible with my skin tone. Being in the beauty industry for 20 years, I've learned a lot about color and what colors compliment or don't work together. THIS red color will pretty much match just about ANY skin tone. The feel of the lipstick was like butter on my lips. It lasted for a long time and my lips didn't peel. It doesn't even FEEL like I'm wearing lipstick so I often forget I have it on my lips.
I definitely recommend it and at these prices, it's like buying two for less than $5 each.
