Avon Eye Shadow and Lipstick

I'm wearing the Avon sapphire eyeshadow and the Ever Lasting lipstick in Fiery Red. It's a cream shade and it goes on so smooth. I thought I had my red lipliner, but I don't. Sent from Yahoo! Mail on Android

From top to bottom in all pics (last pic without flash): - Extra Lasting eyeshadow pencil in Sapphire - mark Lipclick full color lipstick in Coral Fixation - Extra Lasting lipstick in Fiery Red - Big Color glossy lip pencil in Glossy Angelic - Big Color eye pencil diamonds in Glistening Emerald The eye shadows are long lasting, wiped everything off with a paper towel and both of those aren't budging!

Avon Extra Lasting Lipstick

In "Mauve Ice". I mentioned getting it in one of my earlier posts. They changed up the look and formula of this line and to be honest, I never tried the one before because I always found long wearing lip products to be dry and drying.  I saw in my demo book that they changed the formula so I decided to give it a shot. I found that it's not drying and I can rub my lips together and they actually move :D I should try it without my Avon lip primer to see if it feels the same. It's a nice frost color and does last a while. I ate a bagel for breakfast and it was still on after I was done. This pic is after I reapplied though.  Avon says,  "24-hour comfortable wear! Formulated with Colorlock Complex – locks on color. High-definition color infused with vitamin E and wheat protein. Keeps lips from feeling dry for 24 hours."  I don't know about leaving it on for 24hrs, and quite frankly, who does that? The liner is Avon Ultra Luxury in Rosebud.  My hair is a wash-n-go from Saturday that I pulled up. I used my Carol's Daughter Monoi shampoo and deep conditioned with ORS Olive Oil Deep Conditioner. Must have gotten it in one of my Curl Box's. Sat under my steamer. I rinsed then applied the CD Monoi Oil, Kinky Curly Knot Today and the rest of my Kinky Curly gel (it's done now after having it since 2011!) I really love this stuff and it is a repeat buy. Each morning since then I've just been wetting in the shower and pulling up. So easy! No twists to take out! Sent from Yahoo! Mail on Android

Day 7

Last night I two-strand twisted without the bantu knots. I usually do the bantu knots because it keeps the twists from unraveling and makes them tighter. End result without the knots, longer looking hair with looser waves. I like it. I twisted with Jane Carter's Moisture Mist and Carol's Daughter's Margeurite's Magic and put on my satin cap to sleep. This morning I undid the twists and pulled up the right side and back with side combs like I did two days ago. I finished by applying Creme of Nature's Perfect Edges, which I realized doesn't work on me. I think it's the Argan Oil, it just prevents me from getting that slick look because it's more oily than "tacky", if  I'm making any sense. I finished by spritzing some Carol's Daughter Tui oil spray. The first 3 pics are on my way to work and the last one was not too long after I got to work. As you can see, it got more poufy. Tonight is wash night, yay! My lipstick is CoverGirl Lip Perfection in Temptation. It's kind of a copper/burnt orange color. Frost. Sent from Yahoo! Mail on Android

Thinning Edges

They say your hair grows while pregnant, then you lose it after you give birth. My edges were definitely MIA when I stopped protective styling in the spring and took a good look. I mean like badly. Since discovering this I started trying different things to help it grow. One is Karen Body Beautiful's hair growth serum. Been using this for about two years and I truly don't know if it works or not, but I love the ingredients. I put it at night and in the morning along with the african hair growth gel. These pics are from around early May and I'm going to keep taking pics and putting them up to see the progress. Sent from Yahoo! Mail on Android

Day 5

Got my Carol's Daughter's orders! So I used a bit of Margeurite's Magic to twist. This morning I pulled up the right side and back. Then spritzed with the Tui oil spray. It's so light and smells great. I normally use Shea Moisture's Elixir Spray, but it's heavier and has a stronger fragrance so I think I'll start using that in the colder months. I also got their Goddess Flower souffle and dry oil mist. LOVE! Sent from Yahoo! Mail on Android

Avon Nail Art!

How could I forget! I also got these nail art strips similar to Sally Hansen's. I love those and I hope these are comparable. I'll definitely keep you posted! I tried them and here's the review.    Sent from Yahoo! Mail on Android
