But, like I said, it did pick up this campaign. So much so, that I was able to order myself a few goodies. When my customer orders are few, I don't usually order anything for myself. I like to use my commission to pay for my purchases.
Here is what I bought:
Avon Campaign 9 2011 Haul Smooth Minerals |
I bought 2 Smooth Minerals Blushes M401 Perfect Plum (Left) M103 Copper Glow (Right) 2.5 g net wt (0.09 oz) |
Perfect Plum on left. Copper Glow on right. |
Swatches. Perfect Plum is more pink/purple and matte. Copper Glow is more peach/coral with shimmer. |
I bought 2 Smooth Minerals Eyeshadows M107 Cocoa Glow (Left) M501 Golden Moss (Right) 1.8 g net wt (0.06 oz) |
Cocoa Glow on left. Golden Moss on right. |
Swatches. Cocoa Glow is very light, shimmery, and a very pretty neutral. Golden Moss is a khaki green, like army green with shimmer. |
I bought 2 Smooth Minerals Lip Glosses Malted Mineral (Left) Bronze (Right) SPF 15 3 g net wt (0.10 oz) |
FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
I have not used these products for the exception of swatching them. But I must say, so far, I am loving all of them.
I was super impressed with the blushes. In the brochure, they looked a lot darker. (Buying makeup out of a brochure is a lot harder because the colors on the pages will vary to the actual product due to the printing process.) But, I was being brave and decided to buy some blushes that aren't like anything in my collection.
The eyeshadows are pretty. I would have liked the Golden Glow to be a little more WOW but I think the sheerness and subtlety of it will come in handy.
As for the lip glosses, I am loving them! Yes I am!
That's all I can share with you, My Pretties, for now. I will do an FOTD using these products as soon as I can. I can't wait to try out the blushes more than anything else I bought!
Luv & Luk,

♥♥ I am an Independent Avon Sales Representative. I bought these products with my own money. Avon does not sponsor me, send me free products, or ask me to review their products on my blog. Just because I sell Avon does not mean that I will be biased on my reviews. There are my own honest opinions and thoughts on these products. ♥♥
Your photo examples are great. I was trying to decide if I liked Copper Glow blush. Avon should consult with you on helping people choose product colors. They just show little blobs on their product listing.
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you, that is such a nice thing to say. I sell Avon so I think posting pics of the actual products helps my customers or potential customers out. I'm glad you liked them :) Thank you for stopping by!
DeleteThank you so much for these!! I was going through an Avon catalog and apparently someone made a mistake 'cause all the blush shades were EXACTLY the same, even though the names changed. Also, one problem I have with their products is that when I get the order, the colors are different than from the pictures (blush, foundation, etc). So I decided to google it and came across your blog. The funny thing is that I was unsure between Copper Glow and Perfect Plum and now I can choose peacefully knowing what I'm going to get. Again, thank you SO very much!! Amazing blog, the pictures were extremely helpful <3
