My Makeup Mini-Haul + Product Reviews

Hey, beauties! I recently tried out a few new products and I'm excited to blog my reviews on them!! I ordered the AVON Magix Face Perfector, AVON Lash Conditioner + Primer, mark. All Butter Now Lip Treat in Mauvelous, and the mark. Juice Gems in Juicy Fig. All of these products can be purchased at youravon.com/ssandis so be sure to check that out after reading my post. 

I'm going to start right at the beginning. I have been looking for a product to help combat the oily shine that has been attacking my face as of late -- does that sound too dramatic? No, I think it's fair to say. I've heard the rave reviews on the Magix Face Perfector ($11) and was hoping I would like it as much as others seem to. What is nice about this product is that it is a colorless face primer. There is no tint to it and it is for all skin tones. I love the added SPF 20, which I can rely on to help protect my skin from the damaging rays from the Sun. 

My Notes on the Magix Face Perfector Product: 
- It has a powdery feel when applying. 
- Soaks up the shine practically instantly! 
- Delivered a matte finish.
- I do notice the scent of SPF and that's the only scent I get from the product. 
- I applied my Smooth Minerals Powder Foundation over-top and it blended easily and flawlessly. 
- My pores are all but gone! 
- This product really does make a difference in how your finished makeup look will turn out.
- I am now a firm believe in face primers. This one gets my vote and I won't ever go without it again!

I already knew that I loved the mark. All Butter Now Lip Treat ($11) product, since I had tried it before and fell in love instantly with shade Bare All. I am just about all out of my tube (eek! *gasp*) and was dying to try one of the new shades that was recently added to the product line. I chose the shade Mauvelous! This lip butter smells and tastes amazing with the shea, cocoa, and mango seed butters.

My Notes on the mark. All Butter Now Lip Treat shade Mauvelous:
- Perfect mauve shade for Fall.
- My dry lips instantly felt moisturized and smooth.
- Smooth, buttery texture that is pleasant and non-sticky.
- Wears like a lipstick but feels like a lip balm (lightweight!) 
- I realized that I NEED all 8 of the mark. All Butter Now Lip Treat Shades!!

I've been wanting to try the mark. Juice Gems High Shine Lip Gloss ($11) for a long time now and finally I was about to! I wanted a more neutral colored lip gloss as most of my lipstick stash is pinks and reds. I chose Juicy Fig and i'm quite glad that I did. I am so excited that this product contains real fruit extracts that amp up that yummy factor! This really does taste delish and that's refreshing from the chemical taste of other lip glosses that i've used. 
My Notes on the mark. Juice Gems High Shine Lip Gloss shade Juicy Fig:
- My lips felt hydrated and conditioned after applying.
- This tube is much BIGGER than I thought it would be (yay more bang for your buck!). 
- High Shine in the name is exactly what you will get with this product. Incredible glazed look. 
- Just a hint of color, which is what I was looking for! 
- Easy to squeeze tube, making application a breeze (just be careful to not overdue it. Less is more, ladies!!). 
- Packaging is overall made well. I can trust that the cap isn't just going to fall off when in my bag and dry out my product.
-Tastes a bit like peach. Yum!!

I previously blogged my review on my new favorite mascara: Big & False Lash Volume Mascara. Since I have just started to wear mascara, i'm still learning how my eyelashes will take to it and how to treat and take care of them. I discovered the AVON Lash Conditioner + Primer ($8 ON SALE NOW $4.99!) and knew I had to get it. I saw some reviews that this product had actually helped in growing eyelashes and who wouldn't want that!? This was the first go at using a lash conditioner and I wasn't sure really what to expect. 

My Notes on the AVON Lash Conditioner + Primer:
- What I found was that the conditioner is a white, creamy primer that goes on just like any mascara would. 
- The wand is not too big nor too small, I found it to be the perfect size and brush to reach and prep all of my lashes.
- Went on and left the tips of my eyelashes white at first, but quickly faded and you couldn't tell it was on them. 
- My mascara went on over-top nicely, and I even noticed a difference in how the product worked. I was surprised to find that the mascara results intensified with the use of this lash primer! 
- Also, I noticed when it was time to remove my eye makeup, it came off even easier than before. Which though I thought was not possible, clearly it was. 
- I'm very pleased with this product and will continue to use it and see if I notice my eyelashes grow during continued use.
