Review : Avon Skin So Soft Winter Soft Body Butter

Hello Everyone,


As I look at the snow covered ground, I am reminded of the need to moisturize the skin. I purchased the Avon Skin So Soft Winter Soft body butter, I wanted to take a moment to share my thoughts.



Product Information :


Luscious 24-hour moisturization. Nourishes and softens 6.7 fl.oz.

- Scented with white jasmine & sandalwood
- With babassu oil, shea butter  & vitamin E
- Formulated to protect skin from winter's elements
- Even helps prevent the return of dry skin


Thoughts:

I find the body butter to be thick and creamy.  I noticed that if you use too much it tends to sit on your skin. I liked the scent,  I didn't smell the Jasmine as prominently as I would like, the sandalwood stands out more. Unfortunately I can't say that I noticed it preventing the return of my dry skin.
This is something I would repurchase, as the price is $3.99.

My Papara-she Eyeshadow Broke

Hello Everyone,

So my Mac Papara-she broke, she just crumbled into tiny bits, all over the place. Luckily I was able to save it, I had a little paddle (like the give you to sample ice cream) to scoop it up and  a little jar to put it in. So now it's a pigment, and since I have not used it in a while I figured why not put it on today.

TFSI primer
Mac Quite Natural Paint Pot
VS Bronze-inger e/s
Mac Papara-she e/s (LE)
NYX Taupe on the brow bone
VS Liquid Eyeliner
Maybelline Unstoppable eyeliner over the VS eyeliner

How To Tone A Bright Lipstick Down

So with the summer drawing to a close most of use still want to wear our bright lips, but we may want to tone it done just a bit.

I was playing around with Avon Poppy Love, what I did was put a neutral lip liner on so that I can see where my lip ends, and also a nude color lip gloss will tone the color down as well..

Requested Look: Avon 24 K Quad

As you all know from time to time... I take request as to what people would like to see well for this look I was asked to use some Avon stuff that I  had purchased...


Base:

Mark by Avon Please Hold eye primer... still on the hunt to find a replacement for my benefit cosmetic that has been discontinued... I'll let you know tomorrow how it held up

Color:

The packaging on the quad is similar to the Lancome quads packaging... but the Avon quad is sooooooooo much cheaper....

On the Lid I used the Gold color, in the outer V used the Brown... In the crease used the Purple.. On the Brow bone I used the white....






Overall I give this shadow a : B+ ... I  would have liked to have the gold color be a little more pigmented..
