My Favorite Mascara

November 12, 2015

Mark Lash Act mascara
Okay friends, I think I’ve found my new holy grail mascara! I started using the Lash Act Build and Define mascara almost a month ago.  This is made by Mark, which is a division of Avon.  I’ve already raved about this mascara on my Youtube channel and now I’m here to do the same on my blog.  The mascara wand is unique in that you can use it “as is” or you can twist the top of the wand to change the position of the bristles.

This mascara builds both volume and length.  It’s a rather wet formula, which I prefer so I can see the mascara going to work right away.  It dries quickly.  It doesn’t flake. It lasts all day.  When I’m ready to take my mascara off, I either use my makeup remover wipes or makeup remover on a cotton square and the mascara comes right off.

The Lash Act Build and Define mascara is available in three different colors – blackest black, brown black and violet.  I’ve only tried the blackest black.  The mascara retails for $12.00.  Avon always runs specials on the site as well as coupon codes for some pretty good deals.  Currently, you can use the code WELCOME  to receive 20% off an order of $50 when you order from my Avon e-store, where you can shop 24/7.

I can only say good things about this mascara.  Order yours today.  You won’t be disappointed!!

 

*I ordered this product with my own money.  All opinions are my own and are not influenced by anyone else.  By using the links in this post you will be shopping in my Avon estore.  I appreciate your support!

    This sounds great! I remember years back when Lauren Conrad was first representing Mark, I daydreamed about owning everything haha. I haven’t ordered from Avon in years, I should check them out again!

    How fun that you can change the bristles by twisting the wand! I think Bourjois had a mascara that did the same thing. Have to see if they still sell it!

    I used to buy a mascara from Avon and LOVED it! It’s been a while since I’ve repurchased, but reading this review makes me want to buy it again and see if I love it just as much as I used to 🙂 I will certainly use your link if I do 🙂

I’ve recently taken several makeup classes and one I’ve recently taken several makeup classes and one of the common lessons is that dewy or glowy makeup is better for mature skin. I agree completely because I feel like it blurs my 61 year old wrinkles a little bit and makes my skin look hydrated and healthy.

The maxi dress has a raw hem so it’s super easy to cut without having to get it hemmed. That worked out perfectly for me and my petite 5’1” height. I cut 3 inches off the bottom of the dress and now it fits me exactly how I like it. I love the color too!

I’m loving the back of the dress so I thought I’d share it in a video when we were walking back from the restaurant after dinner. The restaurant is called Hacienda and it’s by the marina in Cabo. We’ve been going there for years. This trip we went there for brunch too and it was excellent! Highly recommend this restaurant for breakfast, lunch or dinner if you’re ever in Cabo.
