NEW: color trend highlighter eyeshadow powder

Hello all,

Just a little post here to let you know about a new product coming up in Brochure 10. The cheaper make-up line color trend have introduced a highlighting powder, and a pretty damn good one at that.

I am always reluctant with cheaper eyeshadows as they can be powdery, with loads of fallout and, unfortunately, can sometimes react to my peepers! However I've had this highlighter (and used it every day) for about two weeks now and I'm addicted. It is a lovely matte finish so for anyone afraid of shimmer or who likes a simple finish, this could be for you. I've also used this as an lid shadow too and it's gorgeous :)

Just apply to the tearduct area or under the brow for an instant little eye lift - I've tried to demonstrate here, but the picture is a tad rubbish, hope you get the idea!

Here's how the product looks in the pot and as a swatch:

This product is currently only available in the shade 'Halo' (I'm not sure if there are plans to expand to other shades - but will keep you updated!) and is £2.50 in Campaign 10.

Thanks for reading!

Introduction

Hello!

Just a quick post to introduce what this blog is all about. I'm an Avon Representative (and customer!) and I understand how sometimes it can be difficult to get a real feel for products before buying without seeing them in the flesh. I've decided to try to do the next best thing, and blog about the goodies I can get my hands on so you're able to judge for yourselves a little better. Along with this, I will offer my personal opinions - which will include criticism! Don't hesitate to request anything you'd like a closer look at.

I currently write with a joint blog over at Sugar Plump Beauty (which already has a few Avon posts that I'll pop over here too) which is for opinions on a whole variety of cosmetics and fashion on the market.. so feel free to have a snoop there too.

Until next time!
