About Me

My photo
I started selling mark products in 2010. I thought it would be a good way to get my feet wet in starting my own business. I wasn't sure what the product line would be like, but I decided to just go for it; so I jumped in, ordered my start-up package and discovered I loved every item they sent me. I was ready to order a bunch more for myself to try out other items. I was hooked. I love mark make up, skin care, body wash, lotions, clothes, purses, everything. Since I started working with mark, my mind has been completely changed on how I viewed Avon/mark type brands. Not only are the products excellent, but the prices are seriously unmatched by any retail brands I've seen. I am proud to sell the things I do- you get what you pay for, and then some. I'm always excited about the new products mark is putting out and can't wait to share them with everyone. I hope you find your mark favorites too! Please feel free to email me, or leave a comment on my blog.

Time for the Holidays

Thanksgiving is almost here and the gift giving holidays are just around the corner, so mark has some fantastic stocking-stuffers and gift collections to offer. I'm going to be talking about Rock the Box and More Collection, Comfy Cozy Home Fragrance Diffuser Oil, Super Flip Color Kit, Touch & Glow Shimmer Cream Cubes, Juicy Details Lemon Sugar Gift Set, Sophistique Give Me a Ring Solid Fragrance Ring, Linked to My Heart Bracelet, and a sneak peek at a new item: Celestial Eyes Shimmery Cream Shadows. Also I'm offering a special treat if you place your order on Black Friday!


+mark Rock the Box and More Collection- This is a great collection of some of our best items in a pretty cool little foldaway box at an excellent price- it's a $52.20 value for $28! Inside this box you've got three fold away sides that hold 4 i-mark shades (Plum Velvet, Fairy Dust, Glitterati and Night Owl) and 2 lip shades (Ruby and Moody). The top opens up and folds back so you can store makeup and tools inside. The "and More Collection" of Rock the Box contains some more treats in that fold away top; Get Bright Hook Up Highlighter, Glow Baby Glow Hook Up Lip Gloss in Pink Crush, Make It Big Lash Plumping Mascara in Raven, No Place to Run Longwear Eyeliner in Jet Set, and an All Over Eyeshadow Brush. I am a huge fan of all of these items- I've even come to appreciate the Make It Big mascara that I originally didn't like. This would be a great gift for anyone who likes mark products, and a great way to introduce someone to a makeup line they will love. I'd definitely recommend this gift, especially for the cost. This is a great deal, get yours here.


+mark Comfy Cozy Home Fragrance Diffuser Oil- This is a first for mark, and a very cool first at that. Right now there is only one scent available, but it's prefect for the holidays "Vanilla Snow". These diffusers are are compact and perfect for any room. Comfy Cozy doesn't use reeds like a lot of other room diffusers, it uses a flower shaped topper with a wick running into the bottle. The scent is light and warm without being overpowering. Fragrance oil diffuses the scents of brown sugar, roasted chestnuts and vanilla, and you get two bottles with two diffusers. Currently people love Comfy Cozy Home Fragrance Diffuser Oil so much it's unavailable. :( Hopefully it will be back in a week or two. When it comes back you can get yours here.


+mark Super Flip Color Kit- This kit is a makeup monster of epic proportions! mark is calling this the color kit of unlimited looks, and I agree. This flip kit is an all new two-sided palette with 9 shades for eyes and 9 shades for lips, available just for the Holidays. The shadows have shimmery and matte shades, and the flip-side has lip glosses and opaque colours. The Super Flip Color Kit is a serious must have for anyone that loves a little colour in their makeup routine, and is perfect for Holiday travel. This little kit fits perfectly into any purse or bag. Colour rundown: 3 lip colours, Lucky, Plush and Wild, 6 Glosses in Oops, Bitten, Cutie, Pop, Wow, and Prima, 9 shadows in Glitterati, Dusk, Cushy, Pool, Java, Fairy Dust, Sepia, Piccadilly and Edge. You can get your hands on your Flip Kit here. BONUS! If you order a Super Flip Kit you'll receive a FREE full-sized Make It Big Lash Plumping Mascara in Raven. No coupon code necessary, check the Special Offers section on my e-boutique.


+mark Touch & Glow Shimmer Cream Cubes All Over Face Palette- At first I wasn't very interested in this item but this palette has become my personal favourite in the e-boutique right now. This palette has 9 shades in a blendable cream-to-powder formula that smooths over your skin and eyelids perfectly. You can use these colours on eyelids or as an allover shimmer for radiant skin. Touch and Glow has luminous shades of pink, gold, and bronze that you can apply with a sweep of a brush or a fingertip dab. I also like to add a small dab of colour over my lip gloss for a shimmery finish. I love the look of these shades on my skin. Definitely pick this palette up for you and a friend (unless you think your friend is cuter than you, then maybe keep it a secret). Order here.


+mark Juicy Details Lemon Sugar Gift Set- Attention! This is a perfect stocking stuffer. mark's Lemon Sugar is our best-selling self sanctuary scent, and if you've smelled it, you know why. Juicy Details is a limited edition gift set that your friends will love. In this set you get a 3-in-1 self sanctuary lemon sugar shampoo/bubble bath/shower gel, and a juice gem squeeze lip gloss in lemon sugar. Add a loofah to this and one name can get checked off your gift list. This is a great item for a great price. Get your Juicy Details here.




-mark Sophistique Give Me a Ring Solid Frangrance Ring- This is one item that I cannot put on my favourites list. On the website it looks nice enough, a nice shape, with a pretty finish as the ring top, but in person this ring is HUGE. It is definitely too big for me and my style. The solid fragrance inside is excellent, and I love the scent, but the delivery falls short from perfect for me. If you don't mind gigantic jewelry then you will enjoy this ring. The solid fragrance inside holds the scent for a long time and isn't greasy when you apply it. It's a nice item to have in your bag if you don't want to wear the ring, or don't want to chance a liquid perfume leaking into your purse- but for a nice hand piece, definitely not my favourite. If you want to try the Give Me a Ring solid fragrance ring, you can order yours here.

And Wouldn't you believe that Sephora is selling a similar ring Juicy Couture, for 42$!! Crazy! I can only imagine how gigantic this ring is, not to mention how over-priced. If you're going to to buy yourself a perfume ring, I think your best bet is with mark.



+mark Linked to My Heart Bracelet- I'm big on anything that helps raise awareness towards domestic violence, and this is definitely one of those things. Linked to My Heart is a chunky chain bracelet with smooth and textured goldtone links and a medallion featuring a heart on one side, with the m.powerment emblem on the other side. 100% of the net proceeds from this sale are donated directly to m.powerment- a philanthropic initiative dedicated to breaking the cycle of dating abuse and partner violence. New studies show that 1 in 5 teens in a serious relationship report being physically abused by a partner. 'Through the sale of items like this bracelet, more than $400,000 has been raised and awarded for education and prevention programs in the communities all over the country!' When you order this bracelet you'll also get a domestic violence resource guide for free. This is a beautiful bracelet with a beautiful cause behind it. Order your Linked to My Heart here.


+mark Celestial Eyes Shimmery Cream Shadows- You can't get your hands on these shadows yet but when they become available you won't be able to keep your hands off them. mark is calling this the 'party-perfect eye shadow', I'm simply calling them gorgeous. These are limited edition creamy formula shadows frosted with metallic finish. These shadows glide on easily and build to add intensity. The split colour shadow allows you to build multiple looks with a chance for new look everyday. I love these shadows and cannot wait till they are available to everyone. For more info on these shadows leave me a comment here, or send me an email!


BLACK FRIDAY is nearing!

If you place a 25$ order with me on Black Friday, you'll receive a FREE Juice Gem tinted gloss with your order! Order a Rock the Box and More Collection and you'll get a special gift from me!

party = success

Friday night was a perfect night for a party!









13 lovely ladies showed up to get the latest looks from mark, and had a great time trying on clothes, and jewelry, handling all the hottest bags and putting on new makeup and skin care products. We didn't have much time to take photos of everyone- here are the early birds!
















We had a full spread on the table and a little fashion corner for clothing thanks to the mark Trunk Show.












The mannequins gave us a few clothing options to try out.









On the downside, our website gave everyone problems :( but we were able to overcome that issue and everything ordered is already in shipping. Orders should be arriving in no time! In the meantime, everyone got to leave with a fun little bag of goodies to try out at home.

For every 10$ spent a ticket was entered into a little raffle to win some more free goodies from mark, four winners will be chosen and announced Monday via email- good luck!!

mark Parties!

Interested in hosting a mark party, or seeing what it's all about?

This weekend I will be hosting a mark party in North Jersey with all kinds of goodies and fun times. We will be having a Trunk show, which means we'll be showing all of mark's latest fashion items and hot makeups! Everything at the party will be a 'tester' so everything can be tried on, handled and played with.

Hosting a mark party gets you and your friends all kinds of free and discounted items, teaches you new makeup trends and tricks, and gives you a chance to touch and inspect all the items on the website you weren't sure if you wanted to own or not. It's the best way to find the product that's right for you.

After the party, I'll post some pictures of the party-goers and announce Raffle Winners! Raffles are just one more way to win free items and goodies!

If you are interested in hosting a mark party, drop me an email or leave a comment below- I can get you all the info you need to host a fun party for you and your friends :)
