BEAUTY AND STYLE: AVON Style Essentials

By Sai

Here's another contest that I want to share to everybody. What's up with me these days? I noticed that I've been posting a lot of beauty contests online lately. Hahaha! Have you read the Bobbi Brown contest I blogged last day? Now, here's another one from Avon Philippines!

I am actually blogging this because I am also joining this contest haha! Just trying my preggy luck :P LOL

Well, honestly, I really want to try these products and make a review about them too. You all know that I am a freelance makeup artist but hair styling is definitely my weakness. Honestly, I don't have that much patience with hair styling. My hair is unmanageable! My real hair (what I mean by real hair is my natural-born hair. I kinda have my hair treated before and curled and dyed it) is straight and whenever I style it I just get so disappointed. Whenever I'm trying to pull it upwards it keeps on falling. I don't know how to blow dry my own hair and I know that's something that I need to work out on.

I'm doing my best in learning hair styling through people I know and through tutorials available online ;) This year, once I'm ready for makeup gigs again, I'm planning to do both hair and makeup services.

Last day I was lurking around the web and, this is no joke, I visited Avon's website and looked for their online brochure. I want to see what's new and then I'm planning to order something (either makeup or hair styling products) then I saw this Avon Style Specialist. What really caught my attention is their chic design. You know I'm a sucker for anything pink! And because I'm trying to learn hair styling, I want to use these products (simply because I find them cute ^_^).

The photo above basically shows the basic things that I need for my hair kit arsenal. There's the blow dryer, the iron curler, a flat iron and some combs. I actually want to try all of them! Whether I win this contest or not, I will definitely buy all of these items for my hair styling kit :)

OH GEE! Posting stuff about beauty and makeup makes me miss my makeup gigs more! I wish I can apply makeup soon and go to makeup gigs again!

I haven't really tried any beauty tools from Avon before. This will probably my first. I usually buy makeup products from Avon. I love their lipsticks and the Ideal Shade Loose Powder (Perfect!).

Here are some basic information about the products:

And of course, the three combs. They have the Detangling Comb, Pop-up brush with mirror and the Barrel Brush :) Out of the three brushes I like the pop-up brush mirror the most simply because I don't have to bring a separate mirror with me every time I'm combing or if ever I want to retouch my makeup ;)
