My Style: X's and Ohs Edition

mark.'s X's and Ohs Dress incorporates all the spring, boho chic, festival fever vibes in one dress! I'll be the first to admit that while I admire the bohemian look, it isn't exactly a style I would gravitate to for myself. I just don't have the right look (or long gorgeous hair) or "free spirited" attitude for the trend. The current mark. Magalog is dedicated to the "festival fever" trend so I thought why not step out of comfort zone and give it a try. 



My review: I really like this dress! I'm wearing a size small and I'm 5'3". The long sleeves make it perfect for the winter/spring transition period and the lace up front is really cute. The cuffs button so you can roll up the sleeves when it is warmer. My only negative is that the fabric has zero stretch and the dress was a little tight in the shoulders. I paired the dress with black boots and a simple black choker necklace. The white and navy batik print has a unique quality. I Googled batik and it is a technique that uses wax and dye to create designs on fabric. 👍👍

Avon True Color SuperExtend Nourishing Mascara Review

I am already a fan of Avon's SuperExtend mascara line. In the past, I have tried SuperExtend and SuperExtend Winged Out so I was excited to try new SuperExtend Nourishing! The rose gold colored packaging is also super fun and different from other Avon mascaras!  😉




Avon True Color SuperExtend Nourishing Mascara is a great mascara for everyday use. Below I am wearing shade black. It gives my lashes color and a lengthened look. I also really like the wand. The bristles are shorter and the brush is long which makes it easy to apply on the bottom and corner lashes. The top makes a "click" when the bottle is closed too. I have worn it a few times and the formula seems similar to the other SuperExtend mascaras I have tried. The mascara stayed put, did not smudge, and came off easily when I washed my face.  👍👍

Top: No mascara or makeup
Bottom: SuperExtend Nourishing & Extra Lasting Eye Shadow Ink

 

DETAILS: Lashes look longer, feel healthier and conditioned. Won’t clump, smudge or flake off. Flexi-Brush gently coats each lash with a fortifying formula, without tugging or pulling. 3 shades available - black, brown black, & trendy navy!
BENEFITS
• Lashes look longer, and feel healthier and conditioned
• Nourishing formula protects and fortifies lashes
• Won't clump, smudge, or flake off
• Removes easily for less lash breakage
• Enriched with Argan Oil, Coconut Oil, and Vitamin E
• Hypoallergenic
• Ophthalmologist tested
• Suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers 
• Flexi-Brush

Avon True Color Nourishing Lipstick Swatches & Review

This campaign is all about Avon's new True Color line. True Color means the color you buy is the color you apply!

I love lipsticks! 💄 For me, a great lip color really completes the whole look. Avon just released a new lipstick called Avon True Color Nourishing Lipstick. As much as I would have loved to order every shade, my budget only allowed me to get two - candy red and cherry blossom. 





My review: The lipstick glided on smoothly and felt like lip balm. The formula was light and moisturizing like a lip balm and had a glossy finish but wasn't heavy or sticky like a lip gloss. I wore it for a few hours before I wiped it off to eat and the lipstick still felt and looked the same as when I applied it. It is not kiss proof. When it comes to lip colors I like to wear bold reds and wine colors. Pink and orange shades are not for me. I definitely liked the candy red shade more than the cherry blossom shade. I should have tried the berry sangria or ruby kiss instead. Maybe next time. 😉





DETAILS: Introducing Avon True Color Nourishing Lipstick - Full coverage, lasting color and conditioning care in one nourishing lipstick. Infused with jojoba oil, vitamin E, collagen and lanolin. Keeps lips feeling conditioned & moisturized even after you take it off!

Avon True Color Pro+ Nail Enamel Review

This campaign is all about Avon's new True Color line. True Color means the color you buy is the color you apply! When I saw new shades and a new formula of Pro+ Nail Enamel nail polishes 💅, there were about 10 shades I wanted to buy and try. I narrowed it down to four shades - night violet, effortless mauve, berry shimmer, and orchid splash. 

2/6/17: I've painted one nail with each shade and will share how they hold up in a week. (Scroll to the bottom for an update.🠟)The shades went on smoothly. I used two coats with night violet, berry shimmer and orchid splash and only one coat with shade effortless mauve. 





DETAILS: Increases nail strength by 80%, Avon True Color Pro+ Nail Enamel... Nail color that lasts 12 days. Get professional results at home with a high-shine mani that resists dings, bangs, and nicks. Avon True Color Pro+ nail enamel with a mix of our most popular shades plus 20 new shades. Shimmer, Creme, Sheer, and Sequins finishes.











UPDATE 2/10/17: I've been wearing the nail polishes for five days and they have held up fairly well! The most noticeable wear is on the tips and it is not too bad. I wash my hands often during the day because I have three dogs I take care of and I like to cook. I could probably give it another day or two before I would really need to paint my nails again. My favorite of the shades I choose is berry shimmer and my least fave is night violet. I would also like to note that I did not use a base coat or a top coat. I can’t wait to wear berry shimmer and orchid splash with my spring outfits!!!

Merry Pinkmas! 🩷

  Merry Pinkmas! 🩷 Glitter nail polish that's easy to remove? What?! No way! Naturally, I had to try it to believe it. 💅 And guess wha...
