Mary Kay Makeup Review

I’m doing something a little different today and talking about beauty products!

In my fantastic MKGlam box, I received 7 products and 2 brushes.

1. Mary Kay Lash Love Mascara in I <3 Black
2. Mary Kay Gel Eyeliner with Expandable Blush Applicator in Jet Black
3. Mary Kay Cream Eye Color in Apricot Twist
4. Mary Kay Bronzing Powder
5. Mary Kay Mineral Cheeck Color in Shy Blush
6. Mary Kay NouriShine Plus Lip Gloss in Mango Tango
7. Mary Kay Translucent Loose Powder

I also got the eye color/concealer brush and overall face brush.

In using these products, I have had nothing but good experiences. My only struggle has been having the situation to wear them at! I’ve worn the mascara, bronzing powder, and loose powder at least every other day since I got them. The mascara looks natural – so it doesn’t look like I’m wearing an insane amount of mascara or anything – which I love. The bronzer is the perfect shade for me. And the powder keeps my face from looking oily all day long.

The blush, gel eyeliner, cream eye color, and lip gloss are all also beautiful products. They go on smooth and definitely help glam up a look. These are the products that I wish I had the situation to wear more! I have especially been impressed with the lip gloss. I normally don’t wear lip gloss because of how sticky it is, but it its beautiful and brightens up the face without being as bright as red. (Although I do love a good red lipstick.) The eyeliner is great, but it’s just too dark for me to wear to work.

Blush and bronzer

Gel eyeliner, cream eye shadow, and translucent powder

I also got 2 brushes: a face powder brush and a cream brush (eye shadow or concealer). I love the cream brush because it is so soft and helps the cream eye color go on so smoothly. I really like the face brush, too, and use it every day with the translucent powder.

My desk has been taken over by makeup recently. The items in a red box are my Mary Kay products that I have out right now. Like I said, I use many of them daily!

I’m so glad that I got this box from Influenster. I’ve loved the products, and I’m hoping to have a chance to use the ones like the eye liner soon.

Have you used Mary Kay products before? What are your thoughts on them?
