What’s hot now for eyeshadow? Plum for Summer eyes — from light violets to deep burgundies. Try the rich, vibrant color in a single sweep with the True Color Eyeshadow Single ($4) in matte finish shade Plum Burgundy. For two complimentary shades in one, check out the True Color Eyeshadow Duo ($6) in shade palette Candied Violet. Want sparkle and glitz with your color? Then you’ll love the luxurious, silky texture and ultra fine pigments of the Eye Dimensions Eyeshadow ($9), shade Sweetheart Plum. The last plum recommendation for your Summer eye makeup is the versatile True Color 8-in-1 Eyeshadow Palette ($10.99) in Plum Essentials.

For the finishing touch on your Summer eye makeup, bring your look from bare to dare with Avon mascara! For winged out flutter with filigree bristles try the SuperExtend Winged Out Mascara ($8) Choose from: Black, Blackest Black, and Brown Black. Looking for a classic, tapered wire brush with waterproof volume? Be sure to grab the Wash-Off Waterproof Mascara($8) Comes in Black, only. For weightless volume with a unique, star-shaped brush useAeroVolume Mascara ($8) for a verical lift! Available in Black, Brown Black and Blackest Black.To get classic volume with a super-sized brush to coat and separate lashes, try the popularSuperShock Mascara ($8). Let’s pump up that volume and get into some more daring mascaras from Avon; the SuperShock Max Mascara ($9) is a personal favorite of mine. I love the oversized helix brush with zig zag design. It delivers maximum volume with the shade choice of Black or Brown Black. This one also comes in a Black shade that is waterproof! Have you tried any of the “Big &” mascaras from Avon? Like a curved brush? You’ll want to check out the Big & Daring Volume Mascara ($9) for 5 times the volume! Choose from Black, Brown Black, Blackest Black, and Waterproof Black. Don’t forget, falsies are in — easily apply the Big & False Lash Volume Mascara ($9) to double your lash volume smoothly with the fiber-blend formula.

Wondering what’s hot for Summer in the way of lipstick? This Summer it’s all about peach for your lips — from peachy pinks to bold corals! Formulated with SPF 15 and with over 50% of its formula being of moisturizing ingredients, try the Ultra Color Absolute Lipstick ($9) in shade Caring Coral. For luxurious, weightless gel color that is free of heavy waxes, use Ultra Color Indulgence Lip Color ($9) in shade Peach Petunia. Have you tried a lip crayon, yet? You’ve got to check out the rich lip color and liner all in one, the Ultra Color Lip Crayon ($8) in cream finish shade Just Rosy. Need your lip color to last long into the hot Summer night?

Eye Dimensions Eyeshadow Product Review

Hey, beauts! I've got another beauty product from AVON to review on the blog and today for the first time ever, it's an eyeshadow palette!! I have to say that the True Color Eyeshadow Quads have been my go-to for some time now but I wanted to try out the Eye Dimensions and the Sultry Smoke shade palette was calling my name!

This 3-shade eyeshadow palette is reg. priced at $9. 

Click here to see if this product is currently under a special promotional offer.

My first impression of this product was how glittery it was. That surprised me but it was a nice change from my usual matte makeups. The lightest two shades seem to contain the most shimmer, whereas the darkest shade has some sparkle but for the most part i'd say its matte. The texture of this product is just how it is described on my eStore; velvety, smooth, and silky. Even though this product is quite shimmery, I have not had any issue with eye irritation. I've steered clear of products like this, usually, because it bothers my eyes. Pleased to say again, that this one does not! I noticed that I am able to wear this eyeshadow for hours before it starts to crease or fade away. I think its the ultimate beauty product for a night out! It's fun, sexy, and sure to make you feel fabulous about yourself! 

You may notice (like I did!) in the brochures and online, the swatch of this palette looks like there is some silver/grey. That is really not the case. I was surprised that the middle color is more of a neutral/brown/hint of gold even. It's very pretty - but worth mentioning, in case you are looking for some silver with your black and white shadows. If you are, be sure to check out the True Color Eyeshadow Quad in shade: Urban Skyline.

I love how effortless the application is. I use the Pro Makeup Brushes that I got from AVON and it just makes all the difference! I use the sponge applicator that comes with to aid me in removing my nail enamel -- works great at getting rid of the polish that gets stuck in the corners! 

The removal of this process is fuss-free, especially with the Moisture Effective Eye Makeup Remover Lotion, which you can also get at youravon.com/ssandis for reg. $4 a bottle.
