This is actually a pretty awesome deal. If you've been thinking of trying Mark's skincare line, now is the time! You'll get your choice of a FREE Mark mask with any $15 skincare purchase.
If you have oily or acne prone skin I would recommend getting Mark's That's Deep Purifying Gel Cleanser and Mark's Matte Chance Mattifying Lotion and the FREE Shine Fighter Oil Control Mask.
If your skin is dull and dry I recommend Mark's Calming Effect Comforting Milk Cleanser and Mark's See Things Clearly Brightening Moisturizer and the FREE Calm Yourself Hydrating Mask.
Both skin types should also be using Mark's For Goodness Face Antioxidant Skin Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30. Sun protection is essential to good skin--especially in the summer! For girls with oily skin I recommend applying For Goodness Face and letting the sunscreen absorb for 15 minutes! Then apply mark's Matte Chance Moisturizer. This will help counter the oily sheen that comes from sunscreen.

Celebrity Stylist Britt Bardo Designs for Mark
Celebrity Stylist Britt Bardo has been styling Mark's fashion offerings in recent magalogs. Apparently Mark has loved her styling so much they've asked Britt to design her own fashion line for them:
After loving the work she did for Avon's Mark catalog, the company asked her to design a collection for them. "Watching Britt from afar, I've been so impressed with her aesthetic and ability to take pieces and put them together in a fresh, modern way," said Claudia Poccia, global president of Mark. Britt Bardo Collection by Mark consists of three essential pieces: a longer-length fitted T-shirt with open neck and cap sleeves ($24), a long sweater that comes with extra long cuffs ($28), and a polyester and spandex slipdress with adjustable straps ($26). The collection will be available at meetmark.com in October.
I have a feeing the top and sweater the model is wearing above are part of Britt's collection. And here is the slipdress:

Get The Look: Selena Gomez's Glowing Skin with Mark Cosmetics
Mark's Celebrity Makeup artist Mai Quyhn used Mark cosmetics on the Disney star at the Women in Film Awards, bringing out Selena Gomez's naturally great skin with a tinted moisturizer rather than a heavier foundation.How to Do It:
1: Apply Get A Tint tinted moisturizer in Buff/Natural.
2: Smudge Eyemarker Color On Line in Jet along lash line and sweep I-mark Custom Pick Eye Color in Minx on lid.
3: Sweep on Lash Splash Hook Up Waterproof Mascara in Black.
4: Give lips a touch of color with Glow Baby Glow Hook Up Lip Gloss in Girly Girl.
Mark Juice Gems Lip Gloss: BOGO!
For a limited time only, Mark's Juice Gems Lip Gloss is Buy One, Get One Free. If you've never tried Juice Gems before or you're already a fan, now is the time to stock up!
These flavored glosses contain real fruit extracts so they smell (and taste) really yummy fruity. However--just a warning--since they are made with real fruit I wouldn't keep the same one for more than 6 months since they could go funky...
My favorite Juice Gems shades? I wear Juicy Mango Tango for a light wash of peachy shimmer, Juicy Snow Peach for a sheer pink lip, and I also LOVE Juicy Pinapple. Don't let the gold shade scare you--this actually looks amazing when you apply it over another lip color (I use it on top of Dew Drenched or even Kissink). Juicy Pinapple just leaves a sheer wash of gold shimmer and softens your lip color. It's also super flattering against bronzed skin. At this price you have no reason not to try it!
Here's a better picture of all the Juice Gems shades:
Juice Gems are now available for a special 2/$6 deal at www.cassie4mark.com. These glosses are VERY similar to Lancome's Juicy Tubes lip gloss, but are $3 each instead of $18 each--ridiculous!

- Thanks so much for your nice comments :)
For the 4th of July mark has not announced any special sale events although they will probably do a free shipping coupon code (but you can get free shipping all the time at www.cassie4mark.com with the code MARKFS25 anyway). They do have the BOGO Juice Gems promotion and the FREE full sized mask with any $15 skincare purchase and those will be running until July 21st so you have plenty of time to take advantage of them! However, July 21st is also the day the new mark brushes are launched so if you're waiting for the brushes you won't get the Juice Gems deal. Since you can get free shipping on your orders I would probably just place an order now and then order again when the new brushes come out. Also, check out the LAST CHANCE section. Tons of items on Clearance now!!
Thanks for stopping by!

- I guess my last question i forgot to submitt. Anyways i just want to start off with telling you how much i love this site. I use to get upset because when ever i placed an order a couple days later something new would come out. Thats why i love the sneak peaks!! Ive also always wondered what products mark carried years back so i think its great that youve been sharing information about mark products for so long. My question was do you know when the buy one, get one free offer is going to end? Im thinking of waiting to place an order till the new brushes come out but im afriaid ill miss out on a great deal.

Lauren Conrad's L.A. Candy Book Signing with Mark Cosmetics!
Lauren Conrad was just at The Grove with Mark Cosmetics for a special book signing event for her new novel L.A. Candy.
Los Angeles is all about the sweet life: hot clubs, cute guys, designer . . . everything. Nineteen-year-old Jane Roberts can't wait to start living it up. She may be in L.A. for an internship, but Jane plans to play as hard as she works, and has enlisted her BFF Scarlett to join in the fun.
When Jane and Scarlett are approached by a producer who wants them to be on his new series, a "reality version of Sex and the City," they can hardly believe their luck. Their own show? Yes, please!
Soon Jane is TV's hottest star. Fame brings more than she ever imagined possible for a girl from Santa Barbara-free designer clothes, the choicest tables at the most exclusive clubs, invites to Hollywood premieres-and she's lapping up the VIP treatment with her eclectic entourage of new pals. But those same friends who are always up for a wild night are also out for a piece of Jane's spotlight.
In a city filled with people chasing after their dreams, it's not long before Jane wakes up to the reality that everyone wants something from her, and nothing is what it seems to be.
L.A. Candy is a deliciously entertaining novel about what it's like to come of age in Hollywood while starring in a reality TV show, written by a girl who has experienced it all firsthand: Lauren Conrad.
Here's Lauren with some Mark. Girls at the event!
L.A. Candy is currently available for a really good price on Amazon! You can purchase the Hardcover or the Kindle version and support Lauren Conrad, the official Mark. Cosmetics Spokesperson, by following the links below.
P.S. Lauren's makeup for the event is all mark! You can get her look at www.cassie4mark.com

HUGE Sneak Peak: Magalog 9!
I hope you enjoy this huge preview of Mark Cosmetic's magalog 9! It's definitely very Fall which is kind of hard to imagine since I just spent the day at the pool....Anyway, looking forward to mark's new Self Sanctuary scent--Berry Cranberry. I loooove anything cranberry and this just sounds so warm & cozy. It will be perfect once the weather starts cooling down.
Also, mark is introducing LEGWEAR in mag 9--specifically, JEGGINGS (jean leggings). These will either be awesome or terrible, so I'll let y'all know what I think as soon as I can get my hands on a pair. I like the new dusty purple top... cute & casual. The scarf is also really cute. I'm not sold on the new handbag just yet thoguh, and I think I'll pass on the jewelry...
Buuut the new Flip For It palette in Urban Neutrals looks really pretty--perfect for fall. The white lip gloss is pretty unique. I'm assuming it's to be used to create a nude lip look. Also apparently mark is no longer naming the Flips after cities... guess they ran out of cities to use... although I was looking forward to a Chicago or D.C. palette. Oh well!
This mag will be here before you know it--Shopping starts 8/18/2009!
Sneak Peak: 4 New Brushes
Coming Soon!
Four new brushes will be added to Mark's makeup brush collection in Magalog 8! They are the:
1. angled contour face brush
what it's for "Shading the cheeks to give the impression of a narrower face."
how it's used "Hold the brush so the bristles are horizontal. Dust blush or bronzer along the lower cheekbone and blend upward."
6.75" L
price: $8.00
2. flat eyeliner brush
what it's for "Drawing a precise line on the eyelid, as well as smudging liners and shadows."
how it's used "Dip brush in dark shadow, then run it along the lash line for a diffused, smoky look."
6" L
price: $6.00
3. angled contour eye shadow brush
what it's for "Shading the crease of the eyelid."
how it's used "Dip the brush in a medium-color shadow, then run it in the crease. (This will help create an illusion of depth.) Use the tip of the brush to blend any distinct lines."
6.5" L
price: $7.00
4. all over eye shadow brush
what it's for "Depositing an intense shot of color to the eyelid."
how it's used "Dip the brush in shadow, tap excess shadow off and use brush to apply shadow across the lid, near the lash line."
6.5" L
price: $7.00
I'm definitely most excited for the all over eyeshadow brush. I always start with an all over wash of mark's Nomadic i-mark on my eyes every day, and I've been using another brand's eyeshadow brush to do this (oh, the horror!) since mark currently doesn't have a brush like this.
I'm also looking forward to the angled contour face brush. Yes I know contouring sounds so 1980, but if done correctly it can really transform the look of your face. I'm working on my contouring technique at the moment, and I'm hoping this brush will help me master it. Defined cheekbones here I come!
I believe the angled contour eye shadow brush is replacing mark's current blending brush (which actually has already been discontinued and is no longer available). That's probably a good thing since like I said in an earlier post about mark's brushes, the blending brush did seem lower quality.
As for the new flat eyeliner brush, I think I would be more excited about this if mark had a GOOD cream/gel eyeliner product. Yes I know mark used to have the Pop In gel eyeliners (actually they are in the LAST CHANCE section now on clearance for only $1.99 so snatch them up if you we're a fan) but my expereince with them was that they were really dry. Maybe I got a bad batch, but it was hard for me to get good color payoff. Actually since the Pop In eyeliners are currently on major clearance in the Last Chance section means these babies are definitely being discontinued so hopefully mark replaces them with a QUALITY gel eyeliner product. I don't mind paying a little more for something that works, ya know.
Well that's my two cents!
DISCONTINUED: mark i-sheer hook up creamy eye shadow
Mark gave us very little notice that their i-sheer product was going to be discontinued and now it's already gone! I really like using i-sheer as an eyeshadow primer. It stays put and never creases--unlike some of mark's other cream eyeshadows.... If you love it too you better stock up now from these eBay sellers since you can no longer purchase it from mark and I'm betting it won't be available on eBay for long!

Mark.girl Cosmetics Beauty Tips: The Perfect Glow
I just watched this video for the first time and WOW! In it Cynde Watson, mark's professional makeup artist, uses mark's Glow Xpert Face Shimmer (in Candle Glo btw) as a bronzer.
Now I have been using mark's Glow Xpert but in a lighter shade than my own skin to highlight, but this video shows how a face shimmer darker than your own skintone can be used to highlight and replace your bronzer.
This is a great tip for summer especially, since the thought of applying bronzer powder to my face when it's hot and muggy out isn't especially appealing. Using a bronzing liquid highlighter, on the other hand, is super light weight and actually looks more natural (as long as you don't go too dark).
Mark also gives a good tip for Glow Xpert in the product description:
Instantly brighten any complexion with this light-reflecting, sheer, shimmering lotion. Can be worn alone or mixed with moisturizer or foundation. Includes our Xpert sponge tip applicator. 0.4 fl. oz.
Price: $8.00
Free Snap-to-it mini with the purchase of any 2 i-mark eyeshadows!
Right now you can get a free snap-to-it mini case with the purchase of any two i-mark eyeshadow shades. This is a pretty good deal since it annoys me to no end that you have to purchase the cases separately for mark's eyeshadow and blushes (just comes in a flimsy plastic case otherwise).

Magalog 5/6 Mark order!
Just wanted to post pictures from my Magalog 5/6 mark cosmetics order. I ordered a few new products along with some older goodies I needed to stock up on.
I always get so giddy when I open a mark package
My new mark products all boxed up
Mark's new Get-a-Tint tinted moisturizer
Mark Winkstick Hook Up Eye Shadow Stick in Demure
Mark Good Glowing Mosiac Blush in Chica
Mark Lash Splash Hook Up Waterproof Mascara in Blue Black
Mark Bronze Pro Bronzing Powder in Pro Golden
Okay, my product reviews:
mark Get A Tint Tinted Moisturizer Lotion SPF 15: I actually ordered this product for my sister and it definitely was NOT my shade. I tried a bit on and it was much too orange for me. She ordered the Honey/Golden shade and it worries me since mark only has 4 shades available for this product (when the previous tinted moisturizer C Thru U had 8). I think the next lightest shade Buff/Natural could be too light for me, at least for summer. Frustrating! I just ordered mark's C Thru U in Natural before it gets discontinued (now on clearance in the LAST CHANCE section.) My sister did like Get A Tint though. She said it gave very light coverage and the tint evened out her skintone just enough, but she would need to use a separate concealer for any spots she wanted to cover. This product also contains SPF 15 which is definitely a necessity for summer.
mark Winkstick Eye Shadow Hook Up Stick in Demure: This is a creamy eye shadow stick in a gold shade. I got it to use for the inner corners of my eyes to brighten them up and it does the job well. I like how I can easily apply it directly from the stick by just dabbing it on (don't need to use any brushes). This is a good grab & go product. The only thing I did notice was that this shade seemed drier than previous winksticks I've used. Wonder if I got an old batch or this shade is less creamy since it does contain shimmer.
mark Good Glowing Mosiac Blush in Chica: I really love mark's blushes. They are definitely at the top of my list for my favorite mark products for their quality and shade selection. I think they have better color payoff than the i-mark eyeshadows and Chica is no exception. I would describe this shade as a shimmery bronzed peach. I took two pictures, one without flash to show the color and one with the flash to show the shimmer.
mark Lash Splash Hook Up Waterproof Mascara in Blue Black: Mark had the Lash Splash mascara available a couple years ago and I didn't notice that this "new" Lash Splash was a different formula or anything. This is the same mascara wand as the Scandalash Hook Up Mascara. I WISH they would make a waterproof Make It Big mascara (hint hint mark!). I'm a huge fan of Make It Big by the way. I think that volumized lashes have a bigger impact than long lashes on me, and Make It Big makes my lashes just as full as Benefit Bad Gal mascara for way less money. Anyway, back to Lash Splash. I wore this to a recent pool party and no raccoon eyes for me. However, as I was attempting to take pictures for y'all I noticed that after a bit the color on the wand turned from blue-black to just plain black so I'm assuming it might have the same effect on your lashes as it oxidizes. No biggie, black lashes are a good look! But I wouldn't buy this if you want blue lashes. For that I would stick to mark's scandalash in Indigo. See what I mean:
mark Bronze Pro Bronzing Powder in Pro Golden: Mark just came out with two new shades of their popular Bronze Pro product: Pro Glow and Pro Golden. I ordered the Pro Golden shade which is the darker of the two. Pro Glow is a lighter shade bronzer which is perfect for fair skin and won't give you that orange look most other bronzers will. To me, Pro Golden is the exact same shade as the regular Bronze Pro except it has shimmer while Bronze Pro is matte. Pro Golden looks quite shimmery in the container but once applied the shimmer was very subtle on me--I couldn't even really notice it without looking really close in the mirror. Pro Golden is a great bronzer but if you already have Bronze Pro I don't see any need to rush out to buy this one since it's not drastically different. But if you're a makeup addict like me then you might want to invest in this one too since the shimmer gives a subtle glow but in no way makes you look like you're off to a rave with big sparkles on your face like other shimmer bronzers I've had the misfortune of trying... Here are some pictures comparing the two side by side:

Mark Dry Oil Mists to be Discontinued!
Time to say au revoir to mark's dry oil mists! If you love them then now is your LAST CHANCE to get them before they are gone forever. The dry oil mists are currently heavily discounted (originally $10.00, now only $3.99).
Here's the dry oil mist product description: Help moisturize and soften skin with this nongreasy, lightweight sheer body oil that absorbs quickly and leaves skin with a subtle glow. 3.3 fl. oz.
Costa Rica Face Charts by Mark Makeup Artist Mai Quynh
I love seeing the face charts makeup artists create for the beauty looks at fashion shows--they're just so pretty, I could almost frame them as artwork to hang in my room (hey, now that I think about it that's a pretty good idea!). Mark's own celebrity makeup artist Mai Quynh (she's worked with celebs like Britney Spears and Miley Cyrus) has created three face charts using the makeup products from mark's new Costa Rica Collection.
While I'm usually not one to wear super bright eyeshadows or bold lip colors like the makeup in the Costa Rica collection--it looks ridiculous on me--I think the beauty looks Mai came up with do look really pretty. I'll most likely just admire them on paper rather than try them myself, but I wanted to share the looks with you in case y'all are more daring than I am.
This look using the Beach Babe palette is the only one I would wear since it's pretty neutral.
Here's what you'll need to get this look:
Here are the other two Costa Rica face charts. In my opinion bright, colorful eyeshadow shades look best when paired with brown eyes and are especially amazing on girls with darker skin.
Act Fast! Mark c-thru-u Tinted Moisturizer being Discontinued!
If you're a fan of mark cosmetic's c-thru-u tinted moisturizer then you'd better stock up while you can! This sheer foundation product is being phased out to make way for mark's new get-a-tint tinted moisturizer. The new tinted moisturizer is supposed to be a better formula than the first, but get-a-tint is only offered in 4 shades while c-thru-u was offered in 8 different shades which I think is a clear advantage. If definitely hope mark comes out with additional shades for their new get-a-tint product--you can't replace 8 face shades with only 4!

Click the magalog to view Magalog 7
Your magalog 7 preview is here already! Shopping doesn't start for this mag until June 23, but take a look to see all the new stuff that's on its way from mark this summer.
Some standout new items include mark. mists (juicy body frangrances in luscious mango, very watermelon, tangerine squeeze, and just peachy), new shades of mini mark it sticks for eyes (pink opal, violet opal, green opal, and gold opal) and mini mark it sticks for lips (pinkie pearl, plummy pearl, goldie pearl, and peachy pearl).
Mark will also be running a skincare promotion in Magalog 7: FREE FULL-SIZED MASK of your choice with any $15.00 skincare purchase!
Strangely enough, I haven't even tried mark's new masks yet. I still have a couple of the masks from mark's previous skincare line but I'm thinking I should probably throw those out since I just realized they're like over a year old... ick.
I am really interested in mark's hydrating mask:
calm yourself
HYDRATING MASK
Proven to hydrate skin by 168%, this gel mask packs the powers of five super skin-soothers - sea moss, wheat germ, cucumber extracts, aloe vera and green tea. Antioxidant-rich lemon and orange extracts also help improve skin tone.
Sounds nice but I'm not sure if there's anything better about this than just using a moisturizer. I'll definitely let you girls know what I think about it once I try it.
Lauren Conrad: Behind the Scenes at her New Mark Makeup Photoshoot!
Lauren Conrad gave bellasugar a behind the scenes look at the photoshoot for her new campaign with mark cosmetics! I always love too see what goes on behind the camera, and I'm always curious to see what mark makeup products they use on Lauren.
I learned a pretty good tip from this video too: use mark's i-mark eyeshadow in Gioia (a brown, non-shimmery shade) as a brow powder. I love products that multi-task!

Brush Love
As much talking as I do about mark, it's funny that I've never really mentioned mark's brushes. I suppose makeup shades, fragrances & fashion are way more fun to discuss than beauty tools but the brushes are actually the mark products that get the absolute most use from me every day!
Actually, last weekend I realized just how important brushes are for good makeup application. I was visiting my sister and forgot my makeup bag so she said I could borrow hers. Seemed like a good idea until I realized that she had NO makeup brushes. Okay she had one powder brush (that shed a ton) so it was hardly worth using. I was definitely lost without my brushes :(
The following are the brushes that I use daily:
1. blending brush
Ideal for working color into the crease or for blending shades together, thanks to long, slightly fanned natural hair. Personally I feel like this brush isn't as good quality as the other brushes. I still use it though cause it does seem to work well for blending, but something about it is just off...
2. concealer brush
Stiff, synthetic bristles are just right for depositing and blending medium to heavy concealers.
3. foundation brush
A larger brush, featuring dense, natural hair, which distributes and blends foundation to create an even finish. I don't know how I ever lived without it. Seriously! I used to just apply my liquid foundation with my fingers (ick).
4. blush + bronzer brush
A medium-fluffy head of natural hair allows for a controlled dusting of color across the cheeks or face. This is great for blush (I use the powder brush for bronzer... I prefer to have an even dusting of bronzer rather than concentrated color).
5. eyeliner brush
Short, dense, slightly angled natural hair makes for a perfectly precise eyeliner application. I use this to line the bottom of my eyes with powder eyeshadow (mark's tiki i-mark to be exact)
6. eye shadow brush
Ideal for applying a sweep of shadow, or for shading the inner or outer corners of the eye, thanks to specially contoured natural hair. I use this to shadow my crease.
7. powder brush
A large, fluffy head of natural hair allows for smooth dusting of powder over the face. Pretty much my do everything brush. I use this to apply bronzer, mattifying powder, and just to smooth out and blend my makeup after I apply everything. I also use this to put bronzer on my neck and chest so it matches my face.
Brush prices range from $6-$8 and are available at www.cassie4mark.com
Now Available: mark Instant Vacation Costa Rica Fragrance Mist!
Iced watermelon and pink guava combine for a fresh and fruity tropical (re)treat. Indulge in this ripe, ravishing fragrance inspired by Costa Rica. Juicy iced watermelon and pink guava provide a succulent introduction while notes of Costa Rican orchid and warm sand accord create the ultimate adventure.
My Review: I look forward to mark's Instant Vacation summer fragrance every year, and Costa Rica is by far my favorite yet. This light melon scent is a MUST-HAVE if you're a fan of fruity fragrances! I would describe the scent as more of a cantaloupe melon than watermelon, it doesn't smell super sweet like i'd expect from watermelon. But, and there is a big BUT, the fragrance fades way too fast. For a $16 fragrance I suppose this is to be expected, but mark's other fragrances have lasted longer than this one. But I did a little research and found the tip below to make your fragrance last cause you'll definitely want this one to!
tip: Fragrances evaporate much more quickly on dry skin (since they are alcohol-based) so make sure your skin is moisturized before applying your fragrance. Use an unscented body lotion that won't clash with your fragrance like mark's new Free For All Fragrance-Free Body Lotion. Happy spritzing!
mark.girl Cosmetics Beauty Tips: Long Lasting Lip Gloss
Sick of having to re-apply your lip gloss all day? Make your lipstick or lip gloss last longer with mark's pro glimmer lip powder!
When mark first introduced this product I was definitely skeptical. Powder for your lips? I didn't see how that could work. But if you apply it correctly it actually works amazingly well (plus the shades are gorgeous).
Here's how to apply mark's pro glimmer lip powder:
1. prep lips with a moisturizing lip balm
2. press pro glimmer on the lips then smooth it out
3. apply your favorite lip gloss on top
mark's pro glimmer hook up lip powder is available in 7 gorgeous shades for $5.50
Watch the video to see mark makeup artist Cynde Watson use pro glimmer!
(PS wow the model is really PRETTY. I want her skin!!)

Mark foundation: Find your perfect shade!
Finding your perfect shade is definitely tricky when shopping for foundation products on the internet. For me those tiny little color swabs stores provide are just not helpful enough so I was excited to see that mark is now showing actual girls and their corresponding mark foundation shades.
I hope these pictures help you find your perfect mark shade and remember--mark is 100% satisfaction guaranteed. So if you end up ordering the wrong shade you can get a full refund, even if the product has already been used! A tip I always tell my customers who just can't decide between two shades--order both and return the one that doesn't work. It's as easy as that! Or you can use the darker shade for summer and the lighter shade for winter. Also if you order two shades you could use the lighter shade to cover dark undereye circles, and the darker shade to cover blemishes and imperfections.
If you have fair to light skin, try these mark shades:
If you have light to medium skin, try these mark shades:
These are my shades! Buff in the winter, Natural in the summer :)
*sidenote: doesn't Lauren Conrad look cute here? It almost looks like she's not wearing makeup. It's nice to see her without tons of eye makeup mark usually puts on her...

great discontinued mark products on eBay!
Here are some of my favorite discontinued mark products available on eBay now:
Fetching new data from eBay now... please stand byBest of 2008: mark For Goodness Face
Antioxidant Skin Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30
Paula Begoun has just announced her "Best of 2008" special report listing the best products launched in 2008 and mark has made the list! Mark's For Goodness Face moisturizer was featured in the category "Moisturizers with sunscreen". Here's what Paula had to say:
Avon Mark for Goodness Face Antioxidant Skin Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30 ($15 for 1.7 ounces)
Best of the Year Because: Another well-formulated daytime moisturizer with sunscreen! The actives include avobenzone in a lightweight moisturizing base that is best for normal to oily skin. The air-tight jar packaging helps keep the many antioxidants and plant extracts stable during use. This also contains a cell-communicating ingredient.
For Goodness Face is also oil-free, non-comedogenic, and fragrance-free so it's great for all skin types--this won't leave you shiny or irritated. Try it today at www.cassie4mark.com!
Coming Soon: Rebel Rose!
Rock your love of everything chic, edgy and gorgeous with this revved-up rose fragrance. Rose absolute spiked with pink pepper embraces your wild side while sheer pink musk and a hint of vanilla play up what's pretty.
Get gorgeous with new pro gloss and pro glimmer shades, and our new mark. rebel rose eye shadow quad.
I'm not a fan of rose scents so I'm not really looking forward to this new mark fragrance.... I'll have to smell it before I rule it out for good but I'm guessing it won't be for me.
That being said, I'm pretty excited for the Rebel Rose makeup collection! Looks like I could make a gorgeous smokey eye look with the new eyeshadow quad, although I definitely won't putting the pink shade anywhere near my eyes... Pink eyeshadow with my coloring is a bad idea. yeah...
So when I do get pink eyeshadows in sets, rather than wasting them here's a tip: apply on cheeks as blush! You could also dab some on over clear lip gloss or colored gloss to get a new custom color.
Here's a look by makeup artist Jamie Greenberg using the new mark rebel rose palette on Katrina Bowden (receptionist on 30 Rock) at the SAG awards!
SNEAK PEAK: Magalog 4
introducing mark hook-up Concealer Sticks!
Isn't the cover of mark's 2009 magalog 4 super cute? I love how they posed Lauren Conrad with the mark models.... something we haven't seen before.
Anyway the cover isn't the best part of this magalog.... drumrolll please.... it's the new creamy concealer stick -- Good Riddance hook up concealer!
I'm so excited for this new product, can't you tell! I've been a mark representative for 2 years now and I've been asking for a product like this since they day I "met mark". I've always said if I could only use ONE hook up's worth of makeup for the rest of my life give me concealer and mascara and I think I'd be okay...
Mark says Cover skin imperfections or under-eye circles with this creamy, oil-free concealer stick that glides gently over the skin. 0.087 oz. net wt.
price: $6.00

NEW SUPER SKINCARE
with super fruits and super foods
Last night I washed my face using my mark That's Deep Purifying Gel Cleanser* + the new Berry Grand Super Exfoliating Beads I must say my skin feels baby soft! I've been using the St. Ives Apricot Scrub for years so mark's Berry Grand exfoliator definitely felt gentle yet effective on my skin, but for those of you who find St. Ives too harsh I would recommend using mark's Go With The Grain Light Exfoliating Beads instead.
My only gripe about this new product is that it was more work than a premixed scrub would be.. But what can I say I'm a sucker for cute packaging and the way these exfoliating beads snap onto the top of the mark cleanser bottles is convenient for keeping it all together on my shower rack and just plain innovative!
Product Descriptions:
Berry Grand Super Exfoliating Beads: Antioxident rich cranberry and pomegranate seeds combine with apricot seed and rice powder to give you a gorgeous glow.
Go With the Grain Light Exfoliating Beads: Vitamin rich adzuki beads and rice bran blend with corn cob for gentle exfoliation.
Both are only $9 and available now!
Mark also has 2 new mask products: Calm Yourself Hydrating Mask and Shine Fighter Oil Control Mask. They are $7 each. Reviews coming soon!
*Just a side note... If you have acne-prone skin I would definitely advise you to use mark's That's Deep Purifying Gel Cleanser... It has never cause me to break out and never leaves my skin tight after cleansing, plus I love the slight cooling effect! I've heard that the Calming Effect Comforting Milk Cleanser has caused break-outs for some girls, although others seem to love it. Go figure! But I have never tried it for that reason, so just keep that in mind when choosing your cleanser.
And the next Mark Cosmetics Spokesperson is......
I have loved seeing Lauren Conrad as Mark Cosmetic's Spokeperson but I think for the next Spokesperson Mark should go in a totally different direction. We've already seen the blonde haired, blue eyed California girl so I would love to see a unique beauty like Gossip Girl's Jessica Szohr take over the role as Spokesperson! There are a ton of beauties that would be great for the role as well--like RIHANNA--but unfortunately they've already been snatched up by other cosmetics companies...
If you think someone not listed here would make a great Spokesperson, definitely comment to let us know your pick!

mark's Fall Flip For Its: MUST HAVE!
I know I've mentioned mark's new Flip For It fall color kits before but I just wanted to remind those of you who haven't got them yet: what are you waiting for?!
These new Flips are seriously gorgeous. I'm usually not impressed with the color combinations in the Flip For Its but not so this fall.
Ultimately the images on mark's website and in the magalogs do not do these gorgeous palettes justice. I tried to take my own pictures to show you all but believe me you have to see these in person!
Sydney:
Sydney is the ultimate neutral, earthy palette! The chocolate eyeshadow is amazing and not from mark's regular i-mark line--so if you like the shade you will only find it here. The shimmery sand shade is mark's regular i-mark shade of Nomadic which should be a staple in every girl's makeup bag. The blush is a special teracotta peachy shade and may be my favorite part of this Flip. I hope mark adds this shade to their permanent line of Good Glowing blush!
London:
London features great fashion-forward shades. The matte grape eyeshadow is so much fun and is actually extremely flattering when used wet as an eyeliner (girls with green or hazel eyes, this shade is for you!). The shimmery taupe eyeshadow is gorgeous! NOTE--mark please add this shade to your regular line of i-marks! The blush shade is the super popular Cameo Glo available in the regular line (and also Lauren Conrad's fav blush shade).
South Beach:
The South Beach kit looks pretty but the rich blue eyeshadow and golden blush is a combination I try to avoid with my coloring (blue eyes, light skin)... Although I do think this color combination would look smashing on a lady with brown eyes and medium skintone!
All 3 Flip For Its also come with 2 lip colors and 2 lip glosses for the ultimate go-to palette. They are available for $20.00 each!

5 New Mark I-mark Shades!
I am in LOVE with these 5 new i-mark shades! Mark must have reformulated their i-mark formula because these new eyeshadows are much smoother have richer pigment than the previous i-marks.
Shade Descriptions:
Expresso: matte dark chocolate brown (use with a wet eyeliner brush for a gorgeous eyeliner)
Latte: matte malt brown
Whisper: pearly vanilla (amazing as an all-over lid color)
Wink Wink: matte purple
Crush: shimmery apricot (my favorite new shade! This is a great highlight shade for the brow bone and inner corner of the eye)
All shades are only $4.
Remember to get a Snap-to-It case to hold and protect your i-marks! A mini comes with a mirror, applicator, holds 2 i-marks and costs only $4.

Mark Cosmetics Fall Flip For It Review: The blush and eyeshadow shades are super soft and have great pigment and lasting power--much better than the regular mark eyeshadows in my opinion. I do wish that instead of 4 lip colors they could throw in a concealer to make the ULTIMATE do-everything compact but I understand it'd be almost impossible to make a concealer shade to match all skin tones so I'll keep dreaming...
And for only $20 this must-have product is a STEAL!

Mark Skincare Winners!
I love Matte Chance! It goes on smoothly and actually works great as a primer before makeup. It has a faint yummy vanilla scent, and keeps my face looking matte all day. The push top is really convenient since it dispenses the exact amount you need, plus it's more sanitary than a jar. I was also pleasantly surprised by how large the product was... you really get your money's worth. You gotta try this :)
Mist Opportunity is a surprise winner for me. I never really saw the point of these facial refreshers before, but now I know what I've been missing out on! I use Mist Opportunity to set my makeup after applying--it works especially great for those of you using mineral foundations since they can make your skin look and feel a little dry. I'll also use it throughout the day when I need a little pick-me-up! I tend to get dry patches on my face throughout the day, and this has really helped fix that problem.
Also, for a limited time only you'll receive a FREE white eyelet headband with any $15 skincare purchase. Gotta love a free gift :)

Product of the Week!
Glossblossom Ripening Lip Tint, $6
Review: I'm not someone who's normally impressed by gimmicky products. I've been a mark. representative for a while now but I never saw the need to try Glossblossom... why buy a clear gloss that changes color upon application when I can just pick out the shade I want from mark's other gloss lines? I am now kicking myself in the butt for this thinking. Glossblossom is AMAZING! It turns the most perfect coral/pink shade on me that I have never found in any other lipgloss. I don't know how it does it but it seems like the color was made exactly for me! It's great because even when the gloss fades away, the color stays on your lips like a lip stain. This is great for me since I feel like i'm one of those people who are born with no natural color in my lips. Plus, I'm not a huge fan of glossy lips for everyday activities, so I just swipe on some Glossblossom before class and then just apply chapstick over the lip stain throughout the day for a natural look.
PROS: amazing color I haven't found in other glosses, leaves a lip stain so color is long-wearing, and it is a pretty neat product that you really can't find anywhere else (except Smashbox's new O-Gloss which costs 22 DOLLARS! mark's is only $6)
CONS: tube was smaller than expected (but I soon realized that a little goes a long way and it will probably end up lasting me a long time)
Sneak Peak: Magalog 3!
order beginning on March 4, 2008
A sneak peak at what's to come for mark! This is my favorite magalog of the year so far... I'm super excited about the new Pure fragrance (love clean scents!) and the new Pure eyeshadows and lipglosses! I also really like the fashion and accessories in this mag, the dress and take flight bag will be perfect for spring. Enjoy!
Get the Look: Becki Newton's SAG Makeup
Featuring mark's Flip For It New York
FACE: Begin with clean, conditioned skin. First, add a touch of concealer under your eyes and to any areas that are red or blotchy. Finish with a creamy foundation such as mark's Face Xpert, which is lightweight and natural looking. Lastly, you can dust a little bit of powder over your skin, but be sure to tap the brush so it's not too heavy and blend well. You don't want to look too done up, just polished.
CHEEKS: Next, add a little bit of luminizer to your cheeks, nose, and forehead. Try Mark's Glow Xpert for a radiant glow. Then, add bronzer and blend well. You want to warm up the skin but not overdo it. Lastly, apply a medium pink blush to the apples of your cheeks and blend outwards. The blush in mark's fall Flip For It New York is a rich pink.
EYES: Blend a few neutral-colored shadows together. The eyeshadow shades in mark's Flip For It New York are perfect, and you can also use the darkest color as a liner. Finish with two coats of black mascara.
LIPS: To achieve this look, apply a pretty pink creamy color like in mark's Flip For It New York and top it with a high shine, shimmery light rose gloss such as mark's Glow Baby Glow in Pink Crush. Now, you're red-carpet ready!
mark. HAUL!
I just placed a new mark order last night and I'm super excited for these products to arrive! Some are new products/shades (reviews coming soon!) and others are my tried-and-true (make it big mascara, lemon sugar, mattenificent)... I'm really excited to try out my nude, red, and pink glosses :)
NEW: Self Sanctury Chocolate Orchid
Savor the indulgent scent of exotic orchid and decadent dark chocolate.
I'm not a chocolate lover but I know there are lots of you out there! Mark's newest line of bath & body products will certainly appeal to those who appreciate foody scents--and your significant other ;)
Unfortunately I find this line a little too rich for daytime wear for me since I'm not a fan of chocolate (I'm a vanilla girl)... but I do like how this scent balances chocolate with orchid, and I find it quite comforting and relaxing when I use it after a warm shower at night.
The line includes a body lotion, shower gel, scent mist, body butter, dry oil mist, and a scented candle (not pictured), and starts at only $5!

I'm Flipping Out!
You know how I've expressed my love for mark. on this blog. I really love it, you guys.
I am in no way paid to talk about any product at all, I'm not part of any blog networks, and I don't even have advertisers on this blog (although I would be open to the right ones). Everything I tell you guys is my honest to God opinion.
Mark. is super fresh, young, fashion forward, and affordable! The packaging is totally cutie-pie (and I'm a major sucker for packaging). When I posted about mark. before, I even got an email from a major "high end" beauty insider telling me she felt the same way!
Well, I have gotten my hands on the mark. flip for it compact, and I've got your sneak peek at the Spring '08 version!!!!
It has two eye colors, a cheek color, and FOUR lip colors. TO-DIE-FOR!
It reminds me of a younger version of one of my all time favorite brands, Stila, but the compacts are only $18.
They've also recently launched the little block box
with shimmer cubes for eyes
and shimmer bars for cheeks
I love the customizable aspect, and you know I love me some shimmer! Pretty pretty colors!
Another great thing I've learned about mark. is that they have a really great palette system!
This is perfect for all of my budding make up artist readers! The individual palettes range from $4-$8 and then you can fill them with your favorite eye ($4)
and cheek ($6) shades.
Which, by the way, I am totes impressed with their colors, pigment, and texture. They also have lip glosses for the palettes
but I haven't tried them yet.
I honestly really appreciate what mark is doing. I would have killed to have this stuff available to me when I was building a kit! I hope you will take advantage of it.
<3 Amy

Your mark. Flawless Face
mark. Foundation, Concealer, and Powder Reviews
Confused about which mark. face product you need? I'll break it all down for you in this post:
invisible touch
PERFECTING CONCEALER, $5
Get heavy-duty coverage with a feather-light feel using this silky cream that transforms into a soft powder. 0.1 oz. net wt.
Review: Can be applied with your finger, but I prefer to use the concealer brush. Great as an undereye concealer and spot cover.
concealer brush, $5
Sleek bristles make sure coverage goes on so smooth and even. 6.5" L.
matte-nificent
OIL-ABSORBING POWDER, $8
Absorb oil and leave skin even-toned and shine-free with this lightweight translucent powder. Powder puff included. 0.18 oz. net wt.
Review: Mattenificent is great for oily skin and cutting the shine. It's a must-have for me--I apply it every day to soak up oilies and set my makeup. Note, I've found that this powder works best when applied with the powder brush instead of the sponge applicator that comes with it.
powder brush, $8
Super-soft, ultraluxe bristles for the ultimate finish. 7" L.
Review: soft bristles and non-shedding. Another must-have in my book.
powder-matic
GO ANYWHERE LOOSE POWDER, $8
Banish shine and set makeup with this translucent loose powder in a mirrored compact with powder puff. 0.28 oz. net wt.
Review: Also great for setting makeup and cutting shine. Differs from Mattenificent in that this comes in a loose powder form. I also recommend using the powder brush for application instead of the powder puff that comes with it.
glow xpert
FACE SHIMMER, $8
Instantly brighten any complexion with this light-reflecting, sheer, shimmering lotion. Can be worn alone or mixed with moisturizer or foundation. Includes our Xpert sponge tip applicator. 0.4 fl. oz.
Review: I personally only apply this product (using the foundation brush) as a highlighter on my cheekbones or around my eye area to brighten my eyes. The shimmer is very subtle and natural, no specks of glitter or anything noticeable like that.
c-thru-u
BEAUTIFYING SHEER TINT, $8
Create an even-toned complexion with this oil-free, sheer-tinted makeup. Protects skin with SPF 15 and contains grape seed and green tea extracts and vitamins A, C and E. 1 fl. oz.
Review: This is mark's lightest coverage foundation. It's more of a tinted moisturizer than a foundation. If you're just looking to even out skin tone then this is the product for you. You can apply concealer and powder on top for more coverage.
face xpert
FLAWLESS TOUCH MAKEUP, $8
Hide flaws and diffuse light with this lightweight, oil-free, professional-coverage formula. Sponge tip applicator helps makeup glide on smoothly and mess-free. 0.4 fl. oz. COSMOgirl! 2006 Kiss of Approval Award Winner "Easiest-to-Use-Foundation".
Review: Light, buildable coverage in an easy to use container. Flawless but natural finish. My ultimate must-have foundation! I use the applicator to dab the foundation on my face where I need it, then use the foundation brush to spread and blend. The foundation brush really makes a huge difference and I love using it with this foundation because you don't have to get your fingers dirty at all to apply this product! I also apply mattenifient afterwards to give the foundation longer life, and to cut shine.
foundation brush, $6
Expertly distributes and blends foundation to create an ultrasmooth, even finish. 6.25" L.
powder buff
NATURAL SKIN FOUNDATION, $8
Hide imperfections for a flawless complexion with this ultrablendable, oil-free pressed powder foundation that allows buildable sheer-to-full coverage. Dual-sided compact has built-in mirror and sponge applicator. 0.4 oz. net wt.
Review: Powder buff adds an air-brushed quality for a flawless face. It is designed to be buildable. Can be worn sheer but can be applied again for more coverage. Many girls rave about this product. Personally I prefer liquid foundations, but if you like powder foundations this one is for you!
speedway
DO EVERYTHING MAKEUP, $8
Cover imperfections and even skin tone with this lightweight, cream-to-powder mini stick. The buildable coverage is perfect for on-the-go touch-ups. 0.14 oz. net wt.
Review: Some ladies use this as a creme-to-powder foundation (applied with the foundation brush). If you prefer a heavier coverage then this foundation is definitely for you. I personally just keep mine in my purse for touch ups throughout the day--it also works great as a concealer.

Don't Just Take My Word For It...
You've heard my take but maybe you're still doubtful about what mark. cosmetics has to offer...Well here's a second opinion from an Associated Content article written by Stefanie Pion:
Mark Cosmetics: Hottest Picks for August/September 2007
Avon has been a household name for as long as we can remember. Avon's success was taken to a new height a few years ago when they created, Mark, a sister company, geared towards younger ladies. They created innovative products in fresh colors and portable packaging.
After looking through, and ordering, half the Mark catalog for August/September, I am so incredibly pleased with my purchases. As a single mom and woman on the go, Mark's newest collection is sure to please any woman that enjoys portable products for touch-ups, and stuffing their handbags with cosmetics. The great thing about this collection, is that the products are so small and portable, that you won't feel weighed down with makeup!
Here are my favorite pics for August/September:
"New Speedway": do everything makeup stick, is a cream-to-powder toteable mini-stick. It eliminates the need for individual powder and liquid foundation products. This gives tremendous coverage and has great staying power. Plus, it comes in a tube. It's the perfect go-anywhere piece. It comes in 8 shades, and there is a shade for everyone. I am incredibly fair. I've never had a tan in my life, and my skin matches bleached white gym socks. I am a "porcelain goddess" and the ivory shade blended beautifully with my skintone. Are you ready for the price? Are you sitting down? It's only $8.00 for .14 fl oz! As a bonus, you get a free foundation brush with any $8 purchase from the foundation section! (This is a $6.00 value) That makes it even better!!
This next product, and as with Mark cosmetics, is all about custom-colors. That's why I love Mark. Why buy a product or color compact to only use one product, because the rest don't look right?! The "Snap to it" custom color palette is a revolutionary magnetized, mirrored compact, that holds I-Mark custom eye shadow) and Good Glowing (face blush) products readily available. You can change them out at any time depending upon your mood, or event! They even come in 3 sizes: mini, mezzo, and mega! Each comes with a brush (and mega comes with 2) and they cost $4, $6, and $8, respectively. There is a shadow color and blush color for everyone! Shadows are $4 each, and blush, $6.
continued...
My absolute favorite product, is a longtime bestseller of Mark cosmetics, and they've added new colors and products! They are called "Hook Ups." They are basically customized to your tastes, snap together wands of color and product! You can get everything from creamy shadow to liquid liner, metallic liners, thickening mascaras, sparkling body powder (for eyes, lips, face, and body), plumping gloss, metallic lipcolor, moisturizing lip balm, shimmering eyeshadows, shimmering gel blush, and sparkling lipgloss! They are only $5 each and come with "hookup connectors" for free (if you purchase any 2 products.....regularly the connectors are .50 each) and allow you to mix and match any combination of product! These have literally replaced everything in my makeup bag! Since every product I need is in "stick form" these all fit in my "brush and pencil holder" loops in my makeup bag. I don't have to dig around in the bottom of my makeup bag anymore to look for that one shadow or product!
You can find all of these products on cassie4mark.com and so much more on their website! What lady doesn't want to simplify their makeup routine and bag?! Better yet, what lady wants to revamp her makeup bag and routine for so little money without sacrificing makeup quality?!

A sneak peak into what's coming up for mark!
I'm so excited for Jewel--this sounds perfect for my move into fall. I'll be sad to part with my mark. Greek Isles Instant Vacation Fragrance but I'm hoping Jewel will be the perfect replacement!
Jewel will be available to customers starting mid-September. I'll be able to get my hands on some though a little earlier so of course I will be bringing you my best review :) I'm also pretty excited for my free pendant (free stuff woot woot).
I'm still not sure about the pro-glimmer lip powder.. I've never put powder on my lips before but hey if it adds staying power to gloss then I'm definitely going to have to give this a try.
And the pro-gloss is a current great product I love, and I'm excited to try out some of the new shades!
PS: the tank, necklace, earrings, ring, + bag on the model are all mark. products!

mark. On The Edge Hook Up Liquid Eyeliner, $5
mark. says: "Adorn your eyes with a lasting line of smooth black with this easy-to-apply liquid eyeliner. Glides on without skipping, dries fast and is smearproof. Pairs well with Kohl Play for a dramatic, layered look. 0.08 fl. oz. "
A personal favorite of my own. As a former devotee of pencil liner, I finally conquered my fear of liquid eyeliner with mark's On The Edge, which--with only a little practice--goes on smooth and STAYS ON. Plus, liquid defined eyes is going to be one of the big trends for fall.
But don't just take my word for it... Take Lauren Conrad's!
"My favorite mark product is their 'On the Edge' black liquid liner," says Lauren. "I wear it everyday because I'm addicted to it!"
Ditto.
New Product Leak for You!
July 31, 2007
Okay so the newest (and possibly greatest?) upcoming mark. product has just been leaked to the representatives and I'm leaking it to YOU!
"In November, Mark will launch its Little Black Box, which will feature Italian-baked shimmer bars and cubes designed for the face, cheeks and eyes.
'It's the next generation of mix-it-ups and make it your own for Mark," said Poccia. "It was really important for us to include this customizable aspect as well as creating an allover product.'
With six rectangle shades and six square shades, the bars are designed for all skin tones. To change shades, customers can slide the blocks into the compact and lock them down in place. While both the Little Black and Shimmer Bars retail for $6, the Shimmer Cubes will be sold for $5.
'This idea was inspired by Lego sets, and each compact was built on tracks so you can slide them in and out,' said Gail Boye, Mark's vice president of product development.
To help Mark customers attain a more flawless look, the company is broadening its shade palette by making all eight of its face coverage products available in eight shades including ivory, nude, honey, golden, almond and mocha. Company research showed that Mark consumers wanted the brand to offer one universal palette, rather than carry only certain items in select shades. According to Poccia, Mark worked with celebrity makeup artist Jillian Dempsey, who created her own collection with Avon in August, to identify key shade ranges."
My Opinion: this thing looks ehh.. not lovin the picture quality. BUT I will have to see more pictures of the product, and then try it out (and of course I will write up my review here!). I'm also loving the interchangeable aspect of the product.. I do love to make my OWN color combinations!
Well, apparently these baked shimmer cubes are supposed to be a great beauty product, and The Body Shop and Laura Gellar Cosmetics both have similar products already out.
We shall see.....

mark. Good Glowing Custom Pick Powder Blush, $6
mark. says: "Brush on super-smooth powder for a natural, radiant glow. Sheer color coverage lasts all day on cheeks and face. Whether you want to shimmer, blush, or be bronzed, any look can be yours. Sold in single-pan format, it can easily be removed and popped into the mark Snap to It Custom Color Palette Case, interchangeable with mood or moment. Oil- and fragrance-free. 0.18 oz. / 5.2g net wt.
As seen in Cosmopolitan & ELLE."
I'm choosing the Good Glowing Powder Blush in the shade After Glo as the product of the day because of the rave reviews I found about it at makeupalley.com (a great makeup site).
I'm currently using this blush in Bronze Glo (as my bronzer) and Star Glo (a great pink) and I do love this combination and had not considered trying anything new.
Bronze Glo
But, after reading multiple reviews that the After Glo shade was exactly like NARS Orgasm blush (probably the most popular blush EVER! and $25 a pop) With mark's version at only $6, I HAVE to try it out!
Here's what one reviewer had to say: "This is my HG (holy grail) blush. It is similar to NARS Ogasm but IMHO (in my honest opinion) better! After Glow is a peachy color with some golden sparkle to it. Looks so good with a deep tan. The price is excellent as is the quality. 5 stars!"
Check out the link below under "More mark." to read the rest of the 97 reviews on this product at makeupalley.
Can't wait to get this. I'll let you know how it goes!

mark. Mega Volume Next Day Spray, $5
mark. says: Help refresh hair between shampoos with this spray that helps remove buildup & reduces the appearance of oil. 6 fl. oz.
I love the idea of these sprays! The Next Day Spray is especially great for me as I have naturally curly hair and it takes me a while to straighten my hair (not to mention that it's super damaging!) so this helps me keep my straight styles longer.
As soon as I wet my hair in the shower my hair is back to curly, so this lets me keep my hair fresh & clean in between washes.
My hair not only looks refreshed, but the soothing geranium and chamomille extracts make my hair smell great too!
Plus, with the purchase of any 2 mark. haircare products you'll get a mark. black headband FREE!
PROS: refreshes hair in between washes, great scent, plus FREE headband with purchase
CONS: well I just went and used it to see what cons I could come up with.. the only thing I could think of is that it is a liquid spray so when you first put it in your hair will look a little damp, so just make sure you have a minute or two after applying for it to absorb! Mmm my hair smells so good right now :)
meet the new fall Flip For It
Coming Soon!
Just wanted to give y'all a sneak peak on what's new from mark! Products will be availabe starting August 21st!
Flip For It holds all the color you need for eyes, lips, & cheeks and is now available in three new palettes for fall.
On one side you'll find two gorgeous eye shadows and a blush. When you flip the compact you'll discover two lip shades and two lipglosses.
The gorgeous shades were inspired by celebrity makeup artist Jillian Dempsey's unique take on makeup looks seen on the runways of New York, Paris, & Milan.
Each of the three Flip For It palettes work on all skin tones. You pick you fav!

mark Eyemarker Color On Line, $5.50
mark says: Draw attention with this eye pencil that goes on smoothly and lasts all day. 0.009 oz. net wt.
Plus, FREE mark. Eye Shadow Brush with any 2 mark. eye product purchases!
I originally ordered the eyemarker (in java) as a gift for my mom. I'd been really pleased with my mark. liquid liner that I hadn't really considered purchasing this pencil for myself. But of course, when I gave my mom the eyemarker I had to try it out for myself, and I must say I was pleasantly surprised (and then ordered one for myself!).
The eyemarker pencil gives you a really rich line. I'd used many pencil liners in the past and ultimately I'd been disappointed, especially in their tendency to fade and smudge. This pencil gives you great color and doesn't smudge around my eyes as the day goes on.
PROS: rich color, long lasting, plus FREE eyeshadow brush
CONS: liner residue got on the container so it looks a little messy, but this is with the older clear packaging so I think the new black packaging will eliminate this.
Get The Look
Golden & Glowing
"For this look, only use foundation and concealer if absolutely needed. Luminous face shimmer will brighten your skin and add dimension. Use Glow Xpert alone or mixed with your favorite foundation or moisturizer to bring out your cheekbones."
-Cynde Watson, mark makeup expert
Face
Tap on Invisible Touch Perfecting Concealer using the mark Concealer Brush from the inner corner of your eyes to the point where the darkness ends. Wait 2-3 minutes, Apply Face Xpert Flawless Touch Makeup with the sponge tip applicator. For a dewy look blend with your moisturizer. To add an instant radiant glow to your temples temples and cheekbones, dab on Glow Xpert Face Shimmer in Candle Glow with the attached sponge applicator and smooth with your fingers.
Cheeks
Add color to your cheeks with ease using Just Pinched Instant Blush Tint in Berry. Dot the blush on the apples of your cheeks and cheekbones then use your fingers or a sponge to blend blush upward and back towards your hairline.
Eyes
Sweep Winkstick Hook Up Eye Shadow in Glitzy generously all over your eyelid and softly blend upward into the crease with your finger. Complete you eyes with two coats of Baby Lash Minibrush Mascara in Black.
Lips
For lasting color apply the Kissink Lip Tintmarker in Pink Tease. Then slick lips with Glow Baby Glow Hook Up Lip Gloss in Pink Crush.

mark. Dew Drenched Moisturlicious Lip Color, $6
mark. says: "Nourishes like a lip balm while adding dewy, long-lasting color. Shea butter and palm oil help moisturize and protect. 0.13 oz. net wt."
In the past I hadn't paid much attention to mark's Dew Drenched Lip Color. From the packaging it appeared to be just your run of the mill lipstick and for my summer look I wasn't looking for a heavy lipstick.
Dew Drenched probably wouldn't have caught my attention but it did when mark. released the product in new packaging and 3 new shades--Watermelon, Toffee, & Crush. It was then that I read the product description and realized this wasn't your ordinary lipstick.
Dew Drenched feels more like a lip balm than a lipstick, but it adds a richer color than a tinted lip balm alone.
I had actually been using mark's Tinted Sheenstick Hook Up Lip Balm previously and while I do love the sheenstick for its hook up packaging and convenience, I think that, overall, Dew Drenched is a more moisturizing lip color.
I'm currently using Dew Drenched in Watermelon and I believe Rain is on my list to order next.
Plus, if you order 2 mark. lip products now you'll get a mark. Kiss Xpert Lip Smoothing Treatment FREE!
PROS: super moisturizing lip color, sheer to medium coverage, plus FREE Lip Smoothing Treatment with purchase
CONS: lightweight coverage (if you're looking for something heavier)

mark. Speedway Do Everything Makeup, $8
mark. says: Cover imperfections and even skin tone with this lightweight, cream-to-powder mini stick. The buildable coverage is perfect for quick, on-the-go touch-ups. 0.14 oz. net wt.
plus FREE FOUNDATION BRUSH with Speedway purchase!
I ordered this in Buff and Natural (for my tan days). At first when I looked at the Buff shade I thought "Oh no, it's too light!" but after applying it I was pleasantly surprised that the color seemed to morph into the color of my skin tone and actually blended quite seamlessly.
I had never thought about using a foundation brush before but since mark. sent me one (for Free!) I decided to give it a try and it is definitely the way to go! I just swipe the speedway on my forhead, nose, cheeks, & chin and blend it in with my foundation brush. For days when I want less coverage I use speedway as my concealor (using my mark. concealer brush) and it has great coverage.
Speedway really is my "do everything" makeup (and I always carry one in my purse for touch ups!).
Speedway comes in 8 shades (from Ivory to Mocha) so try it out for yourself!
PROS: "Do Everything" makeup--foundation & concealer in one, easy application, great coverage, plus FREE foundation brush with purchase
CONS: smaller size than expected (though great for slipping in your purse)

mark. Instant Vacation Greek Isles Fragrance Mist, $15
Product Description: Warm honey, fresh gardenia, white freesia and creamy cocnut combine for a blissful island fragrance that captures the carefree Mediterranean mood of the Greek Isles. 1.5 fl. oz.
As someone who used to only wear perfume on special occasions I have morphed into someone who sprays some on BEFORE GOING TO BED (embarassing).
I love this scent. It's light and airy--floral with an ever so slight hint of coconut. Definitely a perfect summer fragrance, and at only $15, why not?
And lucky for you (and me), this scent also comes in some great hair & body products:
mark Instant Vacation Greek Isles Sea Salt Styling Spray, $6
mark Instant Vacation Greek Isles - Bronzing Self Tanner, $8
mark Instant Vacation Greek Isles - Self Tanner for Face, $7
mark Instant Vacation Greek Isles After Sun Treatment, $8
PROS: beautiful bottle, great light summer scent
CONS: slight alcohol scent when first applied (but this quickly fades)
