Hello Gorgeous !
The amazing Christmas season is winding down and now it's time to prepare for a New Year's Eve celebration to bring in the 2012 year!

This photo of Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge is taken of her on Christmas. I love her wearing the berry tone instead of a traditional red.

The former Kate Middleton who is now the Mrs. Prince William and Duchess of Cambridge always steps out in style-so I am looking forward to seeing what she wears for a New Year's Eve party.
Enjoy this short how to video using the Water for Elephants collection from Avon for Reese Witherspoon's character Marlena.



Products used:
Avon Ever Lasting foundation
Avon Nocturnal Quad eye shadow
Avon Glimmer Sticks in G07
Avon Smokifier eyeliner in Black
Avon Extra lengthening mascara in Black
Avon Super Shock lipgloss in melon
Cheeks are Borghese Spectra bronzer

*Special note-normally I would pop on some false eyelashes-but I never see Kate wearing any! Not even on her wedding day!

Happy New Year's 2012 to you! May it be your best year ever!

Hello Gorgeous!
Happy Hanukkah continues and Merry Christmas is almost here!
I've got a short how to video to get the look of the lead character Marlena played by Reese Witherspoon.
I think the look lends wonderfully to a candlelight service for Christmas! And stay tuned because there is a New Year's Eve look coming up shortly using more Avon products.


Products used:
Foundation: Avon Everlasting
Blush: Borghese Spectra
Eyeshadow: Avon Textured Teal quad
Eyeliner: Avon Glimmer Stick in G07 black ice
Eyeliner: Avon Professional Eye Smokifier in very black *whoa-you need to get this!
Mascara: Avon Super Extend mascara in black
Lips: Avon super shock lipgloss in melon *whoa-you really need to get this!

I do like the shadows, but find they are not high pigmented so you may need to layer a few applications to get a deeper tone on the eye.

The 2 stand out favorites of all the products I tried are the Smokifier-wow, that's a new and good product, and the huge lip gloss called super shock. Get it!

Special thanks to Avon for sharing these beautiful cosmetics with me-and farewell and thank you to Avon CEO Andrea Jung for all the years of service to a cosmetic company that helps build up women based business!
