Great Price + Luscious Lip Gloss = Glazewear Lip Gloss from Avon

Happy Wednesday Budget Brides!!

So last week I received this amazing little package in the mail from Avon. The package included three lip gloss from the Glazewear Lip Gloss line. The three colors that I was sent was ice pink, mirage and intense plum. I love them all. Glazewear is not like your typical lip gloss as that it is not thick and heavy on the lips. This is a major plus in my book. I hate walking around feeling like I dipped my lips in butter. Whew!!!







Avon is currently running a sale on their Glazewear Lip Gloss line with the original price being $6.00 and the sale price being $1.99. Yes, you read it right ONLY $1.99. Be sure to visit Avon.com or your local Avon Representative (everyone knows at least one, right?) to enjoy this sale before it ends on May 31, 2010.

I didn't receive any compensation for this review. However, I did receive product in order to provide an honest review to my readers.

Budget Brides Tips #2 - Makeup

Some of us are Make-Up Divas while others of us are challenge in this area. There are many options for those of us who are Make-Up challenge.


#1. Search magazines and websites to find the make-up that you are looking for on your special day. This helps so when your special day comes your make-up artist will have an example of the look that you are going after.


#2. Always get a test run of what your day of make-up will look like. So if you think you look like a clown then you will have time to make changes or get another artist.


#3. Don't know of a make-up artist to hire. Well go to your favorite department or make-up store and observe the make-up artists. (This may take sometime so make sure you factor this task into your wedding planning schedule.) When you find one that you like sit down for a make-up consultation. Let them know exactly why your there and come prepare with you tear outs from tip #1. Once the consultation is over and you absolutely love your make-up ask the make-up artist if they would be interested in doing your making for the day of your wedding.


#4. You can use all of the tips from step 3 except don't ask the make-up artist to work for you. Instead, bring one of your bridesmaids along and have her take before, middle and after pictures of you during the make-up consultation. (You can also have her video tape the process with the permission of the make-up artist. Once the consultation is over make sure that you buy all ofthe products that the make-up artist used on you so that you can replicate the same look at home.
