Avon Precision Glimmer Powder Eyeshadow

My sister is an Avon rep, and a while ago I placed a big order with her. At the time I was trying hard to save money, so I mainly bought essentials, but the precision glimmer eyeshadow caught my eye and I ended up ordering one of those too. After I'd ordered it I regretted it slightly as I felt I'd wasted money on what was probably a gimmick. Once I had received it and used it for a while though, I soon changed my mind.... ~About the product~ This is an eye shadow, which instead of coming in the normal format of pressed powder, comes as loose powder, which has a felt tip-like applicator with a long handle. It comes in several shades - I believe ...  Read the complete review

After flicking through the Avon catalogue which pops through our letterbox every 3 weeks, I thought I'd have a proper browse and see what was on offer. I hadn't bought anything from Avon for a while, so I wondered if they had any new products in their eyeshadow range. This is when I came across the Precision Glimmer Powder Eyeshadow. At the time they had just 2 shades, one of which was Peachy Pink which I had decided to order at £5 for one. What makes these eyeshadows different from many others is that it doesn't come presented as a typical compact powder, it comes as a loose powder in a tube compartments and the lid doubles up as the applicator! ...  Read the complete review

I tend to wear all kind of make up and eye shadow is something that I have always worn religiously for the past possibly 14 years, always two tone colours though and most of the time I don't venture past browns as I don't think many other colours suit me that much. Although I do go for the smokey grey effect sometimes when I go out and that probably the most adventurous. Pinks, purples, blues and greend etc are a definite no no for me. As always I do browse the Avon catalogue when it comes, can't help myself, I'm a sucker for cosmetics, I have that muc stuff that I have bought and don't actually use I could quite easily open up my own shop and I regularly get ...  Read the complete review

One of the things I love doing is experimenting with eye make-up and I prefer vibrant colours which are easy to apply. When this eyeshadow was first released there were three different shades available and all three were gold or copper colours, as they were part of the Arabian Glow range. These have unfortunately been discontinued recently (as happens with most of the avon products I like!) but there have been five new shades released. There is a green, pink, blue, brown and purple shade. The first one I bought was the lightest gold colour and when I tested it for the first time I was surprised at how vibrant it is - it's just like real gold! It comes ...  Read the complete review

I bought this item from my Avon rep quite some time ago and must say it has lasted some time ago. To me this is a 'going out' look for the eyes as it is quite sparkly. I have a more natural looking one which I use when I'm going out for a meal or something but I have a bright, vibrant, shocking purple which I admit I have only worn twice - once clubbing and once to a Halloween party. So as you can see, this particular piece of make up is one that seems to be worn to make an impact. If you like your eyes to be noticed I would recommend this but if you are going for the au naturel look - I would stay clear of this. Price wise I would say I'm very ...  Read the complete review
