My girlfriend started selling Avon/mark again and this, of course, means bad news for my wallet.

MARK purchases

• lace it up tights $18 CDN
  I love lacy tights/panty hose but for some reason these just make my legs look funny. They’re so cute & sassy but just don’t look right on me. I will probably sell them in an up and coming blog sale.
• no place to run eyeliner  in jetset (black) $7 CDN
  I have this eyeliner in “white on” (white) and “jet set” (black) and I love them. It’s waterproof and almost gel-like. Very comparable to Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliner and I’m almost positive these Mark ones last longer.
  UPDATE: less than a month later the liner has DRIED right up. It actually hurts to apply it and there is hardly any color pay-off.
• on the edge hookup liquid eyeliner in cleo (black) $7 CDN
  This liquid liner is pretty decent for it’s price. There are two things I don’t like about it, though. First, the brush applicator is too thin (but that’s just a preference)and secondly, it smuged easily, even after the liner is dry.
• lipclick full color lipstick in tutu (plum lipstick) $10 CDN
  The “click” means that the case is magnetic which is great because the lids don’t fall off in my make-up bag! The lipstick is good but I’m on-the-fence about the color I purchased it in.
• a pencil sharpener $3CDN
  I have two of these sharpeners. They’re cheap but work well!

Avon purchases

• lip liner in deep plum $1.99 CDN
• extra lasting lipstick in sunkissed ginger $5.99 CDN
  I love, love, loveee this color! It doesn’t last as long as 8 hours (I’d say about 4) but it is transfer-resitant. I also find that the moisture doesn’t last very long but there’s great color payoff. I find these comparable to MAC Sheen Supreme Lipstick but I like these Avon ones better, as MAC Sheen Supreme  has terrible staying power (in my opinion).
