Y'all, when I was younger I remember both my Mama & Grandmother swearing by Mary Kay.
And who knew that as a wife now & a woman attempting to "adult" that I would fall in love with the very same brand?
Along with the traditional favorites, Mary Kay has a new Mary Kay at Play line that is full of fun colors, trendy products, and amazing quality.

Through some FaceBook connections, I met the sweetest girl-Morgan Bentley, who is a consultant for Mary Kay.
She allowed me to try out a few of their tried & true, and new products!
Mary Kay: Ultimate Mascara, Lash Primer, Lip & Cheek Stick, True Dimensions Lipstick, & Baked Eye Trio
My two eyelash products: the packaging is very feminine and classic at first glance
This is the baked eye shadow, which is from the Mary Kay at Play collection which are new products.
I love how this collection has more modern & playful packaging.
Once again, this is the classic MK packaging that our mother's have always loved-now we can love it too!
Lip & Cheek Stain packaging
Let's start with the primer, which was suggested to me by Morgan.
This really helped my mascara stay on longer & lifted my lashes.
Definitely a keeper in my makeup bag.
This is a bestselling Mary Kay product & after trying it, I see why!
It was also recommended to me by the consultant,
and is the perfect every day mascara with one coat & with two, it's perfect for date night.
Out of all the products that I tried, this one might be my personal favorite.
This is the Lip & Cheek Stick in the color Peach Pop.
My morning routine on the days when I have class needs to be snappy & the fact that I can use this as a blush, lip color, (& don't tell anyone, but sometimes I swipe it on my lids for a quick cream shadow) cuts my "get-ready" time in half.
The color is perfect for spring, summer, and transitioning into fall.
When picking out an eyeshadow, I wanted to try one with a lot of possibility for use.
These colors are perfect with my complexion, I wear the brown on my lid, the pink above & blended into that, and the cream as a highlight & on my inner corners.
Super pigmented & super pretty!
I wish I would've swatched this product for y'all, because this color is fantastic. But you can see the color on the website where I linked it above!
The color is Firecracker & I love a classic red lip.
The packaging on this one is super cool...you'll have to buy one and try it out for yourself!
I am so thankful that I tried out these products because I just became a new lover of Mary Kay & I can see myself ordering more products in the future :)
If you're interested in learning more about Mary Kay or ordering, you can leave me a comment or get in contact with my consultant herself.

A big thank you to Morgan Bentley (via Mary Kay) for providing me with product in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own. Thank you for supporting brands who support The Southern Stylista.
When I was going into middle school, my mom and my aunt got me a full Mary Kay makeover. They wanted my make-up to look classy rather than childish. It worked and I always have a soft spot for Mary Kay now.

It had been a long time since I had any of their makeup, but I'll definitely be investing in more now-it's worth a shot :)

I've never tried their lip gloss, but the lipstick I tried was awesome. I'll have to pick out a gloss next time :)

I haven't tried Mary Kay in such a long time. I tried one of their face washes once but wasn't a fan.
