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.

Mark-mascara

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 🙂

    Very cool! I remember Ulta’s birthday gift last year was a mascara that had the same feature! (I think it was CK One?)

Just a few of the gems I picked up from the Nordst Just a few of the gems I picked up from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 💛 

After trying on a dozen dresses, these two made the cut (I’m 5’1” and 60 years old) as well as this gorgeous new bag that I couldn’t resist. Classic, versatile, and a little fun—just how I like it!

✨ Which look is your favorite? Tell me in the comments and let me know if you’re shopping the sale too!

Bonus, both dresses are under $100 and I know I’ll wear them for a long time to come. Let me know if you want the links.💖

At 60 years old, I’m walking with intention — At 60 years old, I’m walking with intention — and a weighted vest. Adding this simple tool to my daily walk is already making a difference in how I feel, move, and show up for myself.

Here’s why women over 50 might want to give it a try:
1️⃣ Supports Bone Health: Extra weight = gentle resistance = stronger bones = less chance of fractures in the future.
2️⃣ Improves Muscle Tone & Posture: Great for balance and core strength.
3️⃣ Burns More Calories: A simple walk becomes a low-impact strength workout.
P.S. It’s great for men & women of all ages!💪🏼

It’s never too late to level up your wellness routine. And you can get the benefits while doing your house chores, going up and down stairs, gardening, etc. for even more opportunities to improve bone density.

Do you walk with a weighted vest too? I’d love to hear how it’s helped you!
