While flipping through a magazine, I came across an ad for the Mary Kay NouriShine Plus lip gloss. I've wanted to try these so ordered two: Berry Tart and Red Passion. So far, I like the glosses. The Red Passion has chunky copper glitter, so although it looks nice, you know when it wears off, you'll be left with glitter chunks on your lips. Berry Tart is a very nice, wearable light purple. The Rock-n-Red sample that was included is awesome. It's almost like a liquid, red lipstick. I may order this in a full size.
I also purchased the Passion Fruit perfume and body lotion. I've gone through two of the passion fruit body washes and thought it was time to add the perfume and lotion to layer the scent. The passion fruit and hibiscus notes remind me of tropical winds and warm beaches.
My Mary Kay rep also added the gold beauty case, the Rock-n-Red lip gloss and Dance to Life perfume sample.
If you're interested in Mary Kay products, I can recommend Lisa Lewis at www.marykay.com/lgoodman-lewis I've never met her as she is in another state, but she has always been most pleasant and helpful. My products always arrive quickly and are packaged well.
If you use Mary Kay cosmetic, what are your favorite products?
I have the Rock n Red Gloss and I love it!. The good point of glosses is that they give you colour but without the full coverager of a normal lipstick. I have also a couple of eye shadow brushes and they're great. I have to be careful with which brushes I use on my eyelids since my skin is very sensitive there, and Mary Kay's ones are fantastic :)

Hi Maria,
DeleteGood to know about MK brushes!
Monica
I love the look of the glosses. Going to see if I can find them somwhere
ReplyDeleteThe glosses are nice .. would avoid the Red Passion one though .. it is totally chunky glitter.
DeleteMonica
teehee..I had the same reaction to MK before too! =)
ReplyDeleteGreat color glosses!

I think MK's marketing has come a long way, but still .. that pink Cadillac remains cemented in my mind.
DeleteI did really love your look today .. everything layered with the camo pants just looks perfect.
Monica.
I've never tried mary kay but now I want to. that red on the bottom looks a-mazing! so cool that she threw those things in for you. xx. gigi.
ReplyDeleteI do love the red gloss (will probably order the full size) and I wore the berry tart today :-)
DeleteMonica
that red looks AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteHi Natalie,
DeleteThanks for stopping by! Yes, I have my eye on the red as well :-) Will probably purchase when I have a few other things to pick up as well.
Monica.
I see I'm not the only one that thinks of Mary Kay in that way..hehe. I was wondering if many people still use them and I guess they do! I did long ago but then I switched companies. How long have you been using them?

I buy stuff from MK every now and then .. there are so many great brands out there .. it's hard to be loyal.
DeleteMonica.
So true! I'm with Jane Iredale now (just because they have more mineral-based makeup) but before that I was with arbonne. Crazy how often we change!
DeleteI tried a few make up items from Jan Iredale from an online order and the colors weren't good for me. I do have one of her powder make up brushes and it's so luxurious .. very soft goat hair brush with natural wood handle. It was worth the $30 dollars.
DeleteMonica.
I really like Mary Kay products and my mother has been using them for over 10 years now! She loves them! I really enjoy their eye shadows and their black liquid eye liner.

Hi Katie,
DeleteI haven't ventured into the skin care - yet. I do need to finish up some products before purchasing more (you know how that goes :-)
Monica
I love love love Mary Kay - my daughter is now selling it, so when she came home to visit, I asked her to bring me the TimeWise VoluLift Range ... heaven, just a little bit of heaven.
ReplyDeleteHi Wendy,
DeleteI have some samples of the TimeWise line that I haven't tried out yet. Will have to get to it. I've been wearing the NouriShine Plus lip glosses and really like them. Oh, I know I'm going to order more .. lol
