I received a Mary Kay Vox Box from Influenster to try for free.
I've tried all the products and must say I am a bit impressed. I've used Mary Kay in the past but just kind of stopped one day (not sure why).
The look I liked the most involved most of the products I received. Just to give you an idea of what I look like, I have light olive skin and light hair. After I put on my usual mineral foundation, I used the mascara (Lash Love). I crimped my lashes and applied it, I liked it but it didn't quite lengthen my lashes like I like. It did thicken them though so that looked nice. I used the gel eye liner pot to create bold but not too crazy cat eyes. It gave the illusion of my eyes being a bit larger and it was more defined than my usual pencil liner. Next I used the Cream Eye Color (Apricot Twist). Its a very subtle color but it looked great. I used my finger to apply it. I felt like it went on better than the brush that way. It wasn't quite enough boldness in my eyes so I used a darker brown (not too dark) eye shadow I had to put some color at the edges of my eyes from lid to brow bone. It created a smokey eye but nothing drastic. I wasn't a huge fan of the blush, it looked too subtle on me so I used a different blush. I did use a bit of the bronzer though and I was pleased that it blended well and didn't give me a fake look. To seal the deal I brushed on a bit of the translucent loose powder. I really do feel like it keeps the shine down. Then I added the Mango Tango lip gloss but I mixed it with a more neutral beige color to tone it down a little.
All in all it looked fantastic! I am very happy to have been able to give Mary Kay a try again. It reminded me of why I used to like the products way back when. Thanks Influenster!
