True Color Eye Shadow, Ultra Glazewear Lip Gloss, Ultra Color Lipstick and Mega Effects Mascara

I received the True Color Eye Shadow in Plum Burgundy. I like the solo shades of eye shadow because I can purchase several and mix and match however I want. This newly updated product will be available sometime in August with a price of $4.00. I was excited to try the Ultra Glazewear Lip Gloss because I purchased Glazewear Lip Gloss a few years ago and I didn’t like it because it was too sticky. I couldn’t wait to see if that problem had been remedied and I am happy to announce that it has. I received the Ultra Glazewear Lip Gloss in Merlot Glow which is a VERY dark lip color for me. I first put it on when hubby and I were going out one night and it was the only time in almost 22 years of marriage he told me to go take off my makeup because he didn’t like the color on me. On the other side of that I wore it to a girl’s night out party with some friends and they all commented on how they Loved the color on me…so I am torn about the color but I like the feel of the lip gloss and the richness of the color so I think I just need to order it in Rich Raspberry instead. The Ultra Glazewear Lip Gloss will be available later this month for $6.00.

The most amazing new product from AVON is the new Mega Effects Mascara. I have a love-hate relationship with mascara. My thin, blonde eyelashes need mascara to make them visible. I have never mastered the art of applying mascara to my thin, blonde lashes so there are always clumps, smudges and smears to deal with. This is where Mega Effects Mascara has changed my beauty regimen. With the new, adjustable Wonderbrush puts 40% more mascara to the lash vs AVON’s traditional wire mascara brush. The innovative Wonderbrush takes some getting used to but it makes applying mascara so much easier for me.
The Mega Effects Mascara is currently available for $10.00!Check out this video:

The final product I received was the Ultra Color Lipstick in Rich Ruby. I am not usually much of a lipstick wearer but hey, it was for the review so i wore it to church on Sunday morning. Again the color was a bit bold for me, my 18 yo daughter didn’t like it on me at all but my husband said it was fine I again got some compliments and I had people ask what color it was and where I got it, so hopefully my AVON Representative-who goes to my church may drum up some added business. The lipstick has a vivid color to it and it felt smooth and silky on my lips. The color lasted about 4 hours before I had to re-apply so I felt that was reasonable. I don’t have a release date or a price for the lipstick so check with your AVON representative…or order online from mine!

So, Last week was crazy busy and a ton of fun. We visited 3 theme parks in 2 days, spent Saturday visiting my parents celebrating their anniversary and my mom’s birthday and then Sunday was our HUGE Back to School Bash at church. Today at work we were cleaning up and reorganizing post-bash…and drying out, as soon as the Bash officially ended the skies opened up and we got a tom of rain, the church property was flooded! Anyway even with a week that included the BEST pizza I have ever eaten at Via Napoli at Epcot and some delicious desserts at SeaWorld…I lost 2 pounds!
I did get in my 10,000 steps 3 days this week and I drank 100+ ounces of water every day.

This week my goals are to slow down and breathe (and dream about winning some Avon Footworks products), make healthy food choices, drink my water and exercise 2 days. How about you? What healthy lifestyle changes are you making?
