Avon Calling!  Lipstick Review

October 22, 2015

If you’re anywhere near my age then you probably remember the phrase “Avon Calling.”  I just recall a time in life (a long time ago) when Avon came to the house and my mom would purchase items from her rep.  I also recall when my mom would have all of the fun mini sized catalogs to browse through to choose items for her next order.

Nowadays you can actually skip the whole home visit and home party and order directly from the website and have orders shipped directly to your home.  Since I adore makeup and skincare products I’ve decided to become an Avon representative to see where it can take me.  I’ll still be using and purchasing all brands of makeup.  After all, every line has its standouts as well as less than superior products.

I’ll be scouring Avon and Mark to try to find the best of the best from their lines.  They always have great sales and specials.  New campaigns start every 2 weeks so check my site often for great new products and amazing deals.  They’re also about to release a new line of home products that I’m SO excited about.

Let’s start with some lip products that I’m loving so far.  The first is the Ultra Color Indulgence Lip Color.  This lip product is available in a dozen different shades.  I purchased this in the color Rose Bouquet.  It glides right on to the lips and has a nice moisturizing feeling.  I’ve been enjoying it.  It lasts quite a while on the lips and is not drying.

The second lip product that I am actually in love with is the mark. Lipclick Matte Full Color Lipstick.  This stuff is amazing!  I’ve never used a matte lipstick that was actually moisturizing.  This one is a winner!  I purchased the color called Siren.  It’s a little louder than I’m used to.  However, it’s gorgeous and I’m going to own it!!  It lasted at least 6 hours without reapplying, through a meal, a snack and a Starbucks.  The only downside to this lipstick is that it’s only available in three shades.

You can click the specific links for products I’ve talked about above OR you can click the big lipstick arrangement picture below to be taken to my main store page.  If you’re a long time Avon user or a newbie I’d appreciate it if you’d use my site to place your orders.   Also, please share my link with your friends who shop Avon.  Thanks so much for your support!

    I actually really like a lot of the Avon and Mark products I’ve tried. Mark has these shimmer bricks that are ahhh-mazing! I also used some cream eyeshadows that were fantastic. I think it’s a great product line for the value!

    I do remember “Avon calling”! In fact, I thought I wanted to work for Avon (corporate) when I lived in NYC and got out of grad school because they were sponsors of women’s running events. But I went into advertising instead. Avon really has upped their game big time. I love the lipstick you’re wearing in the photo. The shade is stunning! I will remember that you’re a rep, and good luck with your new venture!

    I remember those little catalogs too! My Grammy was an Avon nut, she seriously spent SO much money on Avon. Every Christmas she would send me tons of little Avon gifts. I was feeling nostalgic and I found on E Bay this Avon California perfume from the 70’s. I couldn’t believe that someone still had an unopened sealed bottle in its original box, but it reminded me of her so I bought it. That is so cool Stacie that you are now selling Avon! My sister lives in your area and I will refer her to your web site, do you deliver the items like how Avon used to be? Or do they ship it directly to your house? And btw that color looks great on you, I am the same way its hard for me to try colors that aren’t my usual cup of tea but you look great in that one! Have a beautiful day!

    I like Avon products but I don’t buy them often. I purchased a Mark peachy glow cube recently and its very nice for summer. That lipstick looks so nice on you!

    It’s been years since I used any Avon products but after selling it for a few years several years back, I always enjoyed it. There’s a reason why Avon is known for selling themost lipsticks than any other brand 😉

    How does one make a success of a product review website like yours? what kind of questions do you answer in the post? As a new rep to Avon South Africa with no review site i am itching to start a blog with useful articles but im stuck at what to write that people want to read about and help them decide what to buy.

      You have to write about and review products that you are passionate about and are familiar with to give your honest reviews. I hope that helps! Stacie xo

One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack-It Jacket. It’s a great option, especially when I’m on the go! #ad

It has adjustable elastic to cinch in the waist, a hood when I need it in the rain (this hair is a lot of work so I have to protect it)!😅

And the best part is that it can be rolled up into its zipper pouch and tossed it into my bag so I have it when I really need it! It came in handy on my boat ride yesterday!

It comes in several different colors as well as inclusive sizing, so there’s a jacket for everyone! Oh, and it makes a great gift too!

Just comment SHOP and I’ll send the link to your messages or use the link below to shop the Pack-It Jacket from @coldwatercreek 💖

Looking back, I wish I had traveled more and been Looking back, I wish I had traveled more and been more adventurous in my younger years. Despite visiting many distant lands, I often did so reluctantly. However, my mindset has shifted over the past 10 years, and I now yearn to explore more of our world.

We’re currently in Jackson Hole, with upcoming trips planned for Summer and Fall, including another trip to Europe.

River cruising in Europe has been my favorite travel so far. We’ve taken 3 different river cruises and you can see some of those moments in my saved highlights.💖

Are there any cities or countries on your travel bucket list?✈️

Who else is ready for Summer?😎👙🍉🌻👗⛱️🧴☀️

There’s just something about the long slow days and nights of summer that brings back so many fond memories over the past 60 years.

Next week is Memorial Day weekend which I think officially kicks off the season with outdoor bbqs, swimming all day, popsicles, sundresses and sleeveless tops, beach days, vacations and unfortunately, mosquitoes.

What’s one of your favorite summer memories?🥰

I had a pinch me moment this weekend because I had I had a pinch me moment this weekend because I had the pleasure of meeting Julie Vos, founder of her gorgeous namesake jewelry brand.💖✨💖

Her one and only retail location debuted in Dallas, Texas  and you’d better believe I was there for it.💖 

Not only is Julie an amazing designer/artist, but she is so kind. She greeted and spoke to every person in the store.

Each piece of her beautiful jewelry is made from high quality 24k gold plate over nickel-free brass and sealed to prevent tarnish.

There’s something for everyone’s style. I may have tried on every piece in the store!😅

May is skin cancer awareness and melanoma awarenes May is skin cancer awareness and melanoma awareness month. This is my reminder to you to wear your sunscreen every single day and get annual skin checks. Early detection is key to a good outcome.

Both of these products from Beekman 1802 are keeping my skin healthy, hydrated and moisturized, and most importantly, protected from uva and uvb rays from the sun.☀️ In fact, goat milk has 31 active ingredients that strengthen the skin barrier!🐐

Have you had your skin checked by a dermatologist in the last year? If not, please make an appointment now.

You can always use code Stacie20 on the @beekman1802 website for a discount. See the link in my profile or comment SHOP.☀️

This post is in honor of my mom who we lost to melanoma in 2012. She would’ve turned 83 tomorrow.💖😇
