Avon - May Order

I got my first Avon order today. Not my first EVER, I have been jumping on my mums orders for more years than I can remember, but I finally decided to ask for my own catalogue. Limiting myself to £20 or less per month, so I don't go crazy! This post will be quite long with quite a few photos.

My first order came to £14.59 and I got 8 items! Isn't that just amazing! Avon is such good quality too. I ordered a few things separately and then got one of the Bargain Make Up Bags £8 and had 5 items.

First item I shall talk about is the body soufflé. I can't remember how much it is full price I don't have the brochure, but I got this from the sale brochure if you spent so much it was £1.75!!

It smells GORGEOUS. Years ago I had the shea butter range, and think they have stopped it now, this smells like it but with a hint of chocolate, it looks and feels like chocolate mousse. Not as thick as a body butter, and I can still smell it on my hands.

Color Trend Lipstick: Bubblegum Pout

I have been using Color Trend for about 10 years, it must be, so affordable too. This lipstick £1.85! Seriously. It feels really nice too, its only slightly darker than my natural colour, with a shimmer, definitely to be worn every day because it doesn't stand out too much.

Nailwear Pro+ Divine Lime

First page I turn to, and they have a new summer range of polishes. I don't have much experience with Avon nail polish but I am very impressed. This is the one that jumped out at a me, it looks darker on the nails than it does in the bottle. A bright lime green with a golden shimmer. So easy to apply, the brushes are really good, I know that strange but when you wear as much nail polish as me you can tell the difference between a good brush and a bad brush! The nailwear pro+ cost £2.99 a perfect nail polish price.

Those were the products I picked myself, the rest now came from the Bargain Bag. Bargain it is. I got 2 lipsticks, a mascara and 2 nail polishes.

Sorry for the small pictures they wouldn't go next to each other. The only name I have for  this is Rose Gold, its a dark red with a gold shimmer. I love the smell of Avon lipsticks and the texture, so soft.

Super curl-acious Mascara

I will admit, to my inexperienced mind, all mascaras are the same. I have needed a mascara it can claim to do many things its different shaped brush but, they make my eyelashes black is all I can really say. Not that its a bad thing, its a nice mascara and the bright pink packaging is beautiful.

Lipstick: Pink

I could not believe it when I saw this! I had this so many years ago, I have it in red too, its one of the most amazing lipsticks I have ever owned. It just adds a slight shimmer to your lips, hopefully picked it up well on the camera, I am so pleased with this.

Nailwear Pro: Splendid Blue

Splendid blue is a gorgeous navy blue with a very noticeable shimmer, I managed to get it on the camera, shown here is 2 coats, didn't take long to dry - but must wear a base coat. As I was swatching 3 nail polishes I didn't and it left a slight stain.

Speed dry+ Mambo Melon

I am not sure where melon comes in to it, this is a bright coral coloured polish with a subtle shimmer, which I have picked up on the second picture if you look close enough. Speed dry it is, I wish all nail polish was this quick to dry, I would say less than a minute. I used 2 coats to cover the nail.

As you can probably tell I am extremely happy with my first Avon order, and I just cannot wait to get the brochure and get my next items.
