I recently had a little splurge in my
Avon catalogue as there were loads of products that looked great. The
downfall of a catalogue is that I want to buy EVERYTHING! So I had to
set myself a limit on spending, which was only £20... and for
that £20 I got all of this.... :D
I was really impressed at how much I
got for the money. And after trying everything, I love it all!!
So, I got: (Pictures below!)
1. Speed dry 30 seconds Nail Polish in 'Presto Plum' (12ml)
This is a really lovely dark purple colour, it genuinely dries in 30 seconds and is very good quality. It was £3 and for a large 12ml bottle I was very pleased. It will be a great colour for autumn/winter.
2. Avon 'Rare Diamonds' fragrance (50ml)
I picked this out at random for a pleasant fragrance that I could wear out and about and not feel too guilty about wasting my expensive perfume. Its a really classic, but fresh, scent and suitable for day or night. It was only £8
3. ColorTrend Lipstick in 'Peony'
This is such a lovely colour. A plummy pink-red colour (not the best description, I know!) and something that I would keep to hand in my bag for a quick make-up 'pick me up' throughout the day. It was just 99p when you buy another make-up product, so absolute bargain!

4. ColorTrend Nail Polish in 'Violet
Freeze' (8ml)
This was just £1 and I thought I would give it a go. It comes out a really pretty blue/purple chilly winter colour. You do need 2 (maybe even 3) coats, but it is very nice and dries really quickly, also leaving a nice finish on the nail.
5. Eye primer in 'Light beige'
I have only ever tried the urban decay eye primer, so thought I would try this. Its a tiny pot, but you literally use the smallest amount, so it will last for ages. It gives a lovely, even base on the eye lid and doesn't crease, this was only £3.
6. ColorTrend Pressed Powder in 'Translucent'
Finally, I got this pressed powder. It is quite light, but I like that, as I don't like powders to be too cakey or thick. It sets make up in place very well and lasts all day. It comes with an applicator sponge, which I prefer not to use as I think a brush works better. This was £4.
All in all I am really happy with my little Avon haul!
I was very tempted to order from this months catalogue too, but I am going on holiday in 2 weeks and am trying to save up spending money, so I decided to be sensible.. (and maybe I'll just buy some things in Paris hehe!!)
