the Mary Kay® look product review

late last month i unboxed a mary kay voxbox from influenster, you can see that HERE
and promised a review on all the products here it is (:
(if youd like to see the day to night look i created with these products click HERE)

Mary Kay is a cosmetic based company, started by one women that changed the way cosmetics were sold, now you can find consultants to help you purchase products even in your area and online HERE

Mary Kay products in my opinion have the quality of high end makeup companies, they can be pricey but are totally worth the price.

heres the items i have been using since last month:

mary kay cream eye color in violet storm

a shimmery lavendar

no primer needed with this bad boy, its not going anywhere, no creasing or smudging, very pigmented.

for me its perfect on the lid, and i prefer to use it as a base to bring out my dry shadows,

i would recommend all the colors and the cream color/concealer brush it gives the best application

no cons found

 

mary kay cream eye color/concealer brush

high quality brush perfect for cream and liquid products

no cons found

 

mary kay lash primer & mary kay lash love lengthening mascara in i heart black

primer:

a twisted tapered bristly brush

keeps mascara on and makes lashes defined and seperated, great prep tool

works best on clean lashes

con: chemical scent

 

mascara:

plastic curved wand with lots of tiny bristles

super impressed by this mascara, lengthening, no clumps, ive owned for over 2 weeks and theres no signs of it drying out

works best over lash primer and when wiggling wand through lashes, also great on lower lashes and to blend natural lashes with falsies

cons: not volumizing/thickening

 

mary kay true dimensions lips stick in pink cherie

a perfect rose pink

the formula is extremly creamy, beautiful color fitting for most, leaves a nice stain when wears off, mess free packaging, doesnt bleed even w/o liner

works best with a liner to last

cons: over whelming perfume scent

 

this is an honest review of my thought on the products i received
