I LOVE these brushes. LOVE LOVE LOVE I also bough the other five piece set that includes the kabuki brush. It is the best for applying the bit of setting powder when you are done with your makeup. The eye brushes are soft as well, and do a great job of applying color. The brushes are all of good size and I have yet to see any shedding. Definitely spend the ten dollars on this set, and the other if you can find it. These brushes are worth way more than they cost.

I got his in navy, and while the color is the perfect dark blue shade to help make your eyes seem brighter, turning up the dial didn't make much of a difference for me. I didn't see any additional product on the brush, nor did i see any difference in my eyes (I did one on setting 1 and the other on 3 to compare). It is long lasting and doesn't flake or smudge. It does leave you with full, good looking lashes, but the whole upping the level aspect seems more like marketing ploy than anything else.

This brush doesn't live up to its soft and fluffy description. The bristles are incredibly scratchy and irritating. It doesn't pick up powder very well, but it does rub it off compacts and containers for a really big mess. Go to the drugstore and pick up the Eco Tools kabuki brush. it is incredibly soft and applies powers in a flash - it's the complete opposite of the Avon brush.

This is a really great product. it has the same active ingredients as the ten dollar "clinical" ones you see popping up all over. At a dollar, this is a steal. It lasts through anything and has a very light scent. It dries quickly and doesn't leave any residue. It's also not chalky so you can wear sleeveless tops/dresses and it's doesn't leave a white outline in your underarms like some other roll on's do. Really a great, great product.

As with the mineral blush, i just didn't like this makeup. It feels rough going on no matter what brush you use. The colors go on much darker than how they look in the container, so even the lightest shades looked obvious on me. Something in it irritated my skin and make it read and itchy for a few days. I have used other mineral makeups without issue, but something in this line just doesn't work with my skin.

This has been my favorite perfume for several months. I ladore the playful scent. it isn't overpowering if you don't bathe in it (we all know people like that!). it's more of a spring/summer scent, but I do wear it year round. it's certainly a scent that will make you smile when you wear it. Just by smelling it from the bottle, I can see how people get the old lady smell. But when it hits your skin and all the notes warm up, the fruity, floral scent is completely addictive.

This intoxicating scent is perfect for cooler weather. Whenever I wear it the hubby wants to cuddle :) I love the spicy notes to it. This is really a great perfume for people who don't like sweet, flowery scents. It's almost an aggressive smell if that makes any sense. It makes people notice you, but not in a bad way. It is sexy, spicy and warm - not a scent for the timid who don't like attention.

I love to wear this scent in the spring time or on perfect summer sunny days It has such a light scent to it that is never overpowering. The scent reminds me of water flowers and just evokes a calm feeling when you smell it. If layered with the body lotion and/or shower gel, the scent will linger with you all day, in a really light, pleasant way. I always have people stop me when I am wearing this fragrance to ask me what I am wearing.

I got the smokey eye and khaki quad, and neither product had me leaping for joy. The shadows are very hard and it takes forever to get enough powder if you are using a brush. If you use a sponge applicator, the color comes out way to heavy. it doesn't blend well and doesn't have very good staying power. The pigments are pretty week and the powder as a scratchy feeling to it. The color range Avon offers is awesome, but the actual powder is not milled/refined enough for me to buy it again.

I tried this in conjunction with the day creme, and I will never use these products again. The day creme made my face burn. This just left it with a huge greasey slick that ended up with a massive acne breakout. Maybe the lotion is just to heavy for me, or there is something in it that I cannot use. I use other products from the age-specific lines with no problems.
