  • Dare to Compare

    As most of you know I have been a mark. rep for about two months now.
    Here are some mark. products that are very similar to other more expensive products.
    The pictures on the left will be the mark. product and the one on the right will be the expensive brand.


    mark ffi    nars artist palette

    mark. offers a compact called a Flip For It which comes in many colors (I am giving one of these away for my contest which ends Sunday).  The compact holds 2 lip glosses, 2 lipsticks, a blush, and 2 eyeshadows.
    I am comparing it to the NARS Artist Palette.
    mark.'s Flip For It is 20.00 while the NARS palette is 70.00...wow.
    18 out of 18 people who participated said they would recommend the mark. compact to a friend and the product had an over all score of 4.9.
    Here is a review from an actual customer:
    "I love the mark. flip for it cases. What a genius idea. They work perfectly. FYI-they were also featured in an issue of Women's Health Magazine."

    mark powder buff   mac studio fix

    mark. has a compact called Powder Buff which is an oil-free pressed powder foundation.
    I am comparing it to the MAC Studio Fix foundation.  mark.'s foundation is 8.00 while MAC's is 25.00.
    54 of 57 (95%) people said they would recommend the mark. compact to a friend and had an overall score of 4.7 stars. Here is an actual review for the mark. foundation:
    "This foundation stands alone for me.  You can use this foundation after your moisturizer and it blends into your skin flawlessly or use it with the concealer brush on blemishes and it gives great coverage. Gorgeous natural look!!!"

    mark mini brush kit   bobbi brown brush

    mark. offers a Mini Brush Kit which includes a powder brush, concealer brush, eyeshadow brush, lip color brush, eyeliner brush, and the case.  I am comparing it to the Bobbi Brown Mini Brush Kit's. mark.'s kit is 15.00 and Bobbi's run from 55.00 to 65.00 and include half the brushes.  59 of 60 (98%) people said they would recommend the mark. kit to a friend and it had an overall rating of 4.7 stars. Here is an actual review for the mark. kit:
    "I love this brush set! It's small, so it's very easy to take on the go, but still a great product to use all the time!  The brushes are a very good quality, and I love and use all of them on a daily basis.  I recommend any of the mark. brushes, as they're all great!"

    mark juice jems   lancome juicy tubes

    Next, I'm comparing mark.'s Juice Jems to Lancome's Juicy Tubes.  mark.'s are 6.00 while Lancome's are 18.00.
    104 of 111 (94%) people would recommend mark.'s Juice Jems to a friend and they had an overall score of 4.6 stars. Here is a real review on the Juice Jems:
    "This is seriously the best lip gloss I've ever tried. I love that it's made with fruit extracts, since each gloss tastes like REAL fruit, not some chemical reproduction. Also, the colors all look really natural on, with just the right amount of shimmer. I can apply in the morning and that one application will last me through lunch. It's not sticky or drying either. I prefer it to even the $20 department store lip glosses I've tried."

    mark mascara    dior mascara   

    Last but not least, mark.'s Make It Big Mascara vs. Dior Diorshow Mascara. mark.'s runs for 6.00 and Dior's runs for 24.00. mark.'s mascara had an overall rating of 4.3 stars and 86% of customers said they would recommend to a friends. Here is a real review from a mark. customer"
    "I love this mascara it is the best mascara I have ever used. It makes volume and NEVER clumps, flakes or makes my lashes feel hard, they feel natural. I love this stuff."

    Hey, I just got this email. Did you get one too?

    Recently, the California Budget Conference Committee approved a proposal that would require a three percent withholding for all independent contractors. If it's passed, the proposal would require Avon (and all other direct selling companies) to withhold 3% of your projected earnings as an independent Representative and remit that 3% to the State of California.

    I'm pretty peeved about this! Then again, I dont know if you're CA lol.

    No I'm in NY but I'm pretty upset about the commission changes that are going during mag 9 I think.  That really stinks though.

  • Stupendulous@xanga

    Just visiting. I'm a Mark. rep, too, but most of those items I would say don't compare. They do make really good brushes though.
