Avon haul C14

Hey dolls,


I've taken a step back from purchasing from Avon recently. I have spent SO MUCH money on their products and I needed to calm it down a little. So this will probably be the last Avon post you see for a little while. Which I'm sure some of you will be happy with, because for a while it's all I posted about on here which probably didn't do me any favours. It got a little repetitive I think. Anyhow on with the haul.

"A leopard never changes it's spots..."

Hey dolls,


So there was a slight theme to my last Avon purchase....can you guess what it is? lol 

Instinct For Her EDP 50ml
£15
 I wasn't looking to buy a new perfume, but when I saw what you got when you purchased it I had to get it. 

When you ordered the perfume you got :
Body spray
Body lotion
Zoey necklace
Zoey necklace
This necklace is GORGEOUS! And the main reason for the purchase of the perfume.

 Finley Scarf
£7
You may have noticed that I've become a little obsessed with scarves lately. So here is another one to add to the collection.

Little Black Dress perfume
£9
(Body spray came free)
This is a repurchase and one of my fave perfumes from Avon, its described as a timeless, classic combination of sweet fruits, fragranced flowers and rich woods. It's a great everyday scent.

Avon Haul Part 2

Hey dolls,




Here is part 2 of the Avon haul. You can see part 1 here.


Infinitize Mascara

This brush is so scary looking, and its kinda sharp. I find it really uncomfortable to use. Maybe I'm using it wrong I dunno but I'm not a huge fan of it. I haven't really picked it up to use it since I first purchased it for the reasons stated but I am gonna give it another go and see if I can make it work.

"Contains lash sculpting, lengthening fibres and curling molecule to help shape and set lash curve and length for 24 hours."


 ColorTrend Lasting Smile Lip Paint

Another ColorTrend newbie.
I don't love these, but I don't hate them. I'm kind of indifferent.
The formula is nice but I don't like how it applies on the lips.


 Nocturnal
Gorgeous burgundy red. The name is fitting cos when I saw the shade I instantly thought Vampiress.

 Lolita
This colour rubs me up the wrong way. I just don't like it. When you swatch it it doesn't look how it does in the stick. And when I apply it to my lips I just feel like you can barely see it.

 Melon Drama
 This shade is too light for me, so its going into my make up kit.

 Left to right: Nocturnal, Lolita, Melon Drama

 Be...JOYFUL perfume
A light and fruity perfume that's great for the daytime. The bottle is a good size to chuck in your purse/handbag for topping up throughout the day.


SuperSHOCK Lip Gloss:
Pumped Up Plum
Tickled Pink
I love these lip glosses, I have almost the entitre collection but one...I think. They leave your lips looking super slick and shiny. And the applicator is one of my faves.

When I first saw Pumped Up Plum (which you cant really see from the pic), I thought it was gonna be too dark could seem a bit intimidating, but when I swatched it I found that not to be the case.

Tickled Pink is a bit too light for me so I'm gonna throw it into my make up kit.

Left: Plumped Up Plum
Right: Tickled Pink

Always On Point Eyeliner - Black
I only use 2 eyeliners, MAC fluidline in Black Track and Avon SuperSHOCK pencil. But when I saw this I wanted to try it cos it had a really good selling point, a sharpener in the lid. So you can always have your eyeliner ready to create precise lines.


Adalina Earrings
Like I said in part 1 of the haul Ive been broadening my jewellery collection and trying to find some cute bits for the summer (what little summer England is giving us...like literally "Get your s**t together Carol" haha). I'm starting to embrace gold jewellery. I tend to go for silver, white gold or platinum jewellery cos I can findit more elegant, some gold jewellerycan be a bit chavvy/tacky. But I'm starting to like it.

Avon Haul Part 1

Hey dolls,



I haven't done an Avon haul in a little while and have still been purchasing some things here and there. So this haul is gonna be in 2 parts as I did not want to bombard you with a whole bunch of photos.


Pure 02 perfume
This a repurchase. I bought this a few months back and I love it so much they had on sale so I picked up another one.


 Advanced Techniques Moroccan Argan Oil - Leave in treatment
 Another repurchase - I'm all about argan oil. I love this product a lot and as long as Avon keep making it I'm gonna keep buying it.

Planet Spa Mediterranean olive oil hydrating face mask
I suffer with dry skin and I normally use my Simple face mask but I wanted to see what else I could try and as this is an olive oil based face mask I thought Id give it a whirl.




Antler Cabin bag
I only heard about Antler bags when I started selling for Avon, but ever since I have fallen in love with their bags. I have a couple but this one is by far my favourite. I use this as my day to day handbag but its also great for hand luggage on a plane.

Far Away Bella collection

 Far Away Bella

 With each purchase of the perfume you got a moisturiser and purse spray. I'm not even gonna insult your intelligence by trying to describe the scent. If you know me I am the WORST a describing perfume or spray scents.

 I will give you the description that comes with the bottle... "A free-spirited adventure awaits, with juicy clementine from Italy and blooming magnolia flower from China, finished with intriguing tonka bean from Brazil" 

 Perfect Kiss lip gloss - Kiss of a Rose
"With natural oils and fruit enzymes for softer, smoother lips. Lightweight moisturising gloss instantly makes lips look and feel more kissable."

 This is a great lip gloss to have for everyday.

I'm really weird about lip gloss applicators, well not weird more particular. I like a larger applicator not those silly little thin ones. I'm liking this applicator a lot.



 ColorTrend lengthening mascara - Black

This is a great mascara, it makes my lashes all nice and long and it separates them too.

Extra Lasting lipstick
Fiery Red
Pink Perfection

"Moisturising high-definition lipstick with Fresh Wear Complex lasts up to 8 hours. Feels luxurious with a silky satin finish. With SPF15."

I'm all abut the bright lips this year. Reds and pinks are definitely my go to colours.
 


Left- Pink Perfection
Right - Fiery Red

 Hello Kitty necklace

 How frickin cute is this necklace????
I don't know any girl who doesn't own something Hello Kitty.

I love the little bow detail on the clasp.

Illana earrings
I've been looking at broadening my accessories collection and Avon have had some cute pieces recently.

Avon haul - C5

Hey guys,


So I'm back again with an Avon haul, I'm not gonna apologise for having another haul from them up again because I really do like their products and I'm not really loving the stuff in shops at the moment, and if I do I cant afford it haha. So I'm really hoping to get that job I interviewed for yesterday.

 Manilla Weekender bag - £9.80
I love this bag, I'm gonna be using it as a handbag sometimes cos its just so cute and I love the the way it closes, I cant remember what its called.


Pure O2 (for her EDT spray) - £4.99
This perfume smells gorgeous. It smells like a perfume I've smelt before but I really cant remember what it is, don't you hate when that happens?


Mediterranean Olive Oil with Orange Flower body scrub - FREE
 When you ordered the Pure 02 perfume you got this gorgeous scrub or free. I'd already talked about this in another blog post when my sister gave me hers. My mum liked it so much I gave her mine cos I don't need 2.
 ColorTrend Winter Wonderland lip balm - Strawberry Sorbet - £1
OMG! This smells so good. It smells and tastes like a sweet I had as a kid, but again memory has failed me and I don't know hat its called haha. (I didn't lick my lips, when I inhaled I could taste it)

 Christian Lacroix Absynthe toiletries bag - £1.50
This is what it says on the tin haha just a little toiletries bag, but I like the design on it.

Nailwear pro polishes - £2.10 each
L-R: Orange Creamsicle, Fuchsia Fun, Aqua Fantasy, Loving Lavender, Blue Escape
I love Avon nail polishes, I have sooooo many of them. They are good quality and worth their money.
 Swatches

 ColorTrend Read My Dazzling Lips lipgloss - Dazzling Watermelon - £1.25
This is a a simple pink lipgloss, but it is pigmented, its not quite opaque but its not sheer either. Something nice for everyday.
 
 ColorTrend weet Twist lip gloss - Berries and Cream - £1
I've purchased this before and I'm not sure if its being discontinued.as it hasn't been in the last few catalogues so I thought I'd pick it up.
Swatches
Top: Dazzling Watermelon
Bottom: Berries and Cream

 Ideal Flawless Foundation samples - 30p each
I got these because the last one I tried in the shade Earth was too dark for my skin tone, so I got the next 2 shades up. I hope these work cos I'd love a lightweight foundation to wear. Especially at the low price it is from Avon. I used to wear my MAC Studio fix fluid foundation in NC50 but that foundation is so THICK I feel like my skin is suffocating.

Naturals Vanilla moisturising body scrub - £1.05
Naturals Strawberry moisturising body scrub - £1.05
These smell amazing, the vanilla smell is very potent and the strawberry one smells like a milkshake, yum :)
Its quite a fine scrub not coarse at all. I cant wait to use these :)
