Me post-Mary Kay product
I am going to be completely honest…I know very little about makeup. Since the day I started wearing the stuff {junior high-high school?} not a whole lot has changed. I like simple and often do not have the time to make much fuss. Yet I seem to fuss about everything else in life. Why not makeup? Well, I am beginning to see it is a lack of experience and basic knowledge of what works best.
I was pleased when I got the opportunity to try out a few of Mary Kay’s products. I branched out of my regular just brown eye shadow to something a little noticeable without sacrificing a whole lot of my time.
I received the Mary Kay Compact Mini {which is super cute and practical} that includes three mineral eye colors and cheek color that all magically are held in the refillable magnetic case. Yes, I said magnetic. So fun! So you can mix and match and when you run out of just one color, you can replace just the one and not have a half empty set.
The Mineral Eye Color Bundles come in a three color set based on your eye color {taking all the guess work out for non educated beauty wearers like myself!}. I would have never attempted a shade of blue until now! And to my surprise, it worked great! I will leave the beauty science to the professionals from now on!
I also tried out the Mary Kay Tinted Lip Balm Sunscreen SPF 15 and Ultimate Mascara to finish the whole look.
Here I am, makeup-less and confused…
And just a few minutes later…pulled together…thanks to Mary Kay…
And in case you are like me, you will appreciate that they give you step by step instructions on how to apply the eye colors. Thank goodness! I might have pulled an 80’s look with that blue eye shadow!
Thanks to the lovely people of Mary Kay and BlogHer, today I am giving away a $100 Mary Kay gift pack. All you have to comment below sharing, what type of Mary Kay product could you use to refresh your makeup routine?

I love trying different eye shadows, but often end up in the same eye routine...the instructions would definitely be a help!
I AGREE I HAVE THE HARDEST TIME WITH MAKEUP I WOULD LOVE TO TRY THIS PRODUCT.
I would try a different color of eye make-up like grey and see what it does for hazel eyes
I'm a fan of the miracle set, ultimate mascara, eyecicles cream eyeshadow in vanilla and gray, eye pencil in brown... satin lips, satin hands... and of course the med-coverage foundation!

I could definitely use that compact! But I would sure be interested to try out their mineral line too...
The pedicure set would be so handy right now!
I could really use a new blush. Mine is old and I need some new color in my life.
I'm a make-up junkie and would probably try a variety of things. I'm most interested in the mineral line.
I never wear eye shadow so I would like to give it a try.
Blogged http://sodahoney.blogspot.com/2011/06/find-your-way-to-beautiful-and-enter.html
To refresh my look? EYE SHADOW!!! I used to wear it all the time; every single day. I don't know what happened, or when I stopped...

I could use all the Mary Kay products but I'm especially interested in trying their mascara. Always looking for the perfect one.

I could definitely use Satin Hands. My hands stay so dry so I think this product would really benefit me.
Cosmetics, I could use the NEW! Limited-Edition* Mary Kay® Tinted Lip Balm Sunscreen SPF 15†, Peony. It's a shade that compliments my coloring, and the SPF is important, especially in summertime!
My email is in my Blogger profile.
I could use the Satin Hands. I have heard so many wonderful things about it, and I have such dry hands from washing and sanitizing them all day long (I handle money all day).
