Avon Glimmersticks Eye Liner

I've been using these since college when I didn't know anything about make-up, but I knew I needed eyeliner! Glimmersticks are soft and smooth and can be applied without tugging or pulling.My HG is Cosmic Brown, and I use Saturn Grey a lot too. I'm terribly bitter that Majestic Plum has been discontinued, but I'll get over it.I use a lot of mineral makeup these days and I experiment with wet-lining my minerals, but when I want a classic look, I use my Glimmersticks.

I dont have this brush, but Ive considered it a lot. Its the one I keep putting in and taking out of my kit. I have a love for fullsize products, so i dont know if this is for me... ponders...

unfortunately Lanz, it's been discontinued :( I wish they'd bring it back - I'd snatch up a few spares

I really wanted to try this before it was d/c, I even had it in my cart, but couldn't afford to check out before they were totally out. I just ordered the flat top version, though. Maybe I'll be able to swap for the original at some point.

I use this for my foundation, and I love it!! It's kind of small for that purpose, but it works so well!!

Is this really discontinued or just out of stock?I have 2 but I don't use them a whole lot. Like nicollback I do use one sometimes to apply Mint concealer. They're good for travel (wish I traveled more!).

I love the baby buki I can't believe they got rid of it but I bet there's a far better one coming on the new site :-)

i love the baby kabuki too, but i think they will have it again, it is waaay too popular and excellent for traveling due to its small size. EDM really dos make the best brushes and nice to know they are cruelty free

I must share my love for the baby kabuki too! I started using it to apply blush and it works like a charm.

I LOVE all of EDM's brushes. They are incredibly soft and a great price. Its great to see that they're coming out with so many different face/ eye brushes lately! These are the only brushes i'll ever use. I've never found brushes that are such high quality at such a great price.

I love this brush, but now that there is a baby flat top I don't think I'll be using this much anymore..

I got the flat-top baby kabuki as a golden ticket, but I never really use it. I wish I had bought more of these before they were discontinued, but the one I have is in good shape and doesn't need to be replaced

This is one of my favourite brushes! I use it for blushes, bronzer and when travelling for almost everything (not eye shadow though). It's so cute too!

King Taco--I was just thinking the same thing! Weeeiiird.Anyways, I like Avon Glimmersticks a lot. They are really soft and have good pigmentation. The only problem is that you have to order from an Avon lady, and wait for a sale (I'm all about instant gratification :P )! They aren't the best, in my opinion, but they're really good.

I forgot to say that my mum was an avon lady so i got tons of free stuff from her.. tried it all. I really love the glimmer stick, but it is a shame they dont come in that much colors, just 2 fun colors which isnt enough at all.

who loves makeup? me me ME!

AND they discontinued Majestic Plum!! That was just wrong of them. I have been using a purple gel eyeliner and I really like it, but the Glimmersticks were so easy to use!Boooo Avon. I wonder if I should stock up Cosmic Brown and Saturn Grey. I really cannot live without those two.

I tried this, and it wasn't my favorite. I've tried many eyeliners, and I like the way that this one went on, but it didn't stay on well for me.

awww, these remind me of my mom. my mother was one of those ladies who "took one for the team" and never bought herself anything nice or new because she had 5 kids to raise so everytime I came to visit I had a big bloomingdales bag full of dior, chanel, clinique and her good old Avon Glimmersticks eyeliners :D thanks for the little trip down memory lane. I love my momma! <3
