Anbody ever tried mark. cosmetics?

[mello]

Has anybody ever tried mark. cosmetics? If you have, what do you think of them? I'm considering trying it out but I want to know how good the quality is before purchasing.

I've tried some of the mark. hookup stuff. Although it's a cute idea, and pretty handy, I don't like any of their creamy eyeshadows. It goes on slightly uneven and takes a long time to dry. And then it either creases or kind of flakes off on my eyelids... And I find their mascara slightly clumpy. :/

I can only comment on the liquid e/l hook ups since thats all I've tried from that line. It rocks! I love it and its so easy to use and small enough to carry one with me all the time for any impromptu makeup sessions. It dries quickly and lasts until you wash it off. I would def. recommend getting one, I think they're about $5 ea.

I have an eye shadow quad in Bohista (discontinued now) and the quality of the shadows is wonderful and highly pigmented. I'm not sure about the single eye shadows or other quads but this one is great. You might be able to find it on ebay.

It's halfway decent stuff for being dirt cheap! I actually think any of their powder products are crap, but their lip stuff is nice and they have great skincare products and bath stuff. It's a fun line when you're broke haha. I actually LOVE their lipstains but I think they discontinued them unfortunately.

I'm a mark rep and that Bohista quad is on clearance sale right now. I don't really buy mark eyeshadows since I had sooo many from other brands before I started selling mark, but I use their mascara, bronzer, tinted moisturizer, various lip stuff, and eyeliner and I like all those things. It's cheap, and you get a lot of product. I love the Make It Big mascara and the Lemon Sugar scented bath stuff. It smells like a yummy pastry!

Thanks a lot!

i have 2 of the glow baby glow lip glosses. they are hookups, and one is a magenta/deep pink with shimmer, the other is a light pink with shimmer. they are actually really pretty and they go on smooth, but the minty smell makes me a little sick

i also have a Juice Gem gloss, in juicy fig. thats one of my favorites. I used to wear it over this cheap NYC metallic brown, and it was gorgeous like that. its basically just a sheer brown/beige with shimmer (and its really glossy) I don't recommend wearing that one alone though, because its hardly anything by itself.

yes i use their liquid eyeliners. I ve used them in some of my last fotds, I have some of their brushes too and I like em. That's about all I've tried from them tho.

i don't have anything but the Juice Gem glosses, and I think they are pretty good.

I also have the Bohista eyeshadow quad mentioned above and I too think it is really great...and it was only like 5.99 or something on clearance! I was really surprised at how pigmented the shadows are. I really like their fragrance's too.

 

[BadBadGirl]

I'm a juice gem, glow baby glow, and lip balm fan. I also buy some of the scented body stuff when it is on sale.

my cousin gave me some mark makeup brushes...and arghhh...they are so bad! they are the roughest brushes ive ever used. it seriously hurt to put on blush or powder with them. i have one mark blush/eyeshadow. and the color is really pigmented. i havnt tried any of their other products.

but ya, the brushes are a definitive no no.

I agree about the creamy eyeshadows. Mine always flaked off fairly quickly, AFTER creasing. Ugh!

I have a few stuff from mark.

-eye cream: works great, dirt cheap!
-bronzer: best.bronzer.everrrrr. buyit!
-powder foundation: the color doesn't match so I haven't really used it, but I love the product. It's very soft and smooth.
-matte oil absorbing powder: once again, the color doesn't match but this goes on sheerer so I can get away with using it and I really like it. Does what it says.
-kabuki brush: soooo small and sooo cute and soooo cheap. works great!-
-various lip products: nothing amazing, but decent stuff.

Just ordered some mascara! The reviews on MUA were pretty positive so I'm looking forward to trying it.

Hope this helps

I second this! i love the liquid e/l

and for a nude look i like the creamy eye shadow.. but i apply it with my fingers and smudge it around to make it even. I never get a crease or anything and it has a light shimmer.. thats all ive tried..

my mom is an avon rep so i get mark from her.
i LOVE it!
i have alot of their hook ups, eyeshadows, blushes, etc...

i actually like their brushes!

 

[chellyx]

i have the mark bronzer brush, and i dont think its too bad. its definately not the best, but for the price its pretty good.
the only other thing i've tried is liquid liner, and lipgloss, and again, not the best, but a great value!

I just bought the Femme 4 quad - read good things on MUA, used primarily wet as eyeliner, but I used it as e/s as well (thats what's really for anyway

) - great for a smokey eye
I bought it on ebay for $4

I used the green, purple and blue

Mark has great foundations, lip glosses, eye shadows, and blush. I am in love with their after glow blush! It is gorgeous and very inexpensive!
