Both are great, but my budget chose Avon over Mary Kay. It works great on my skin, which has special needs. ( I have sensitive combination skin, with acne, oiy and dry spots; not to mention needing to reduce pore size and fight fine lines). Avon has been a good friend and my skin has thanked me for it.

In my opinion, Avon skin care products are junk. One of my best friends sisters sells Avon and was telling us Avon is putting a real effort into making their facial products better so they can compete. I recently purchased Mary Kay facial products and found them to be fabulous. To be honest with you price has nothing to do with skin care products. You have to find what works best for you and YOUR skin which may mean making bad investments and throwing some items away. I have been told Cetaphil is all you need (purchased at your local CVS for about $10) or that Re9 (insanely expensive) developed by dermatologist, is by far the best for your skin. I have tried both, and had the same result. I will agree with what one person wrote, if you have acne prone skin, ProActiv is fantastic stuff. It does really work. But to get back to your question: Avon or Mary-Kay - Mary Kay and here is the good part, if you don't like it, it is 100% refundable, no questions asked.

Without a doubt, Mary-Kay. It's more expensive for a reason.....
I use Bare Minerals and Lancome, but since you asked about Mary-Kay and Avon, I'd have to recommend Mary-Kay.

I'm allergic to Mary Kay (yes, even the hypoallergenic stuff) so I would say Avon. And they are more affordable, too. I personally prefer Lancome. My suggestion: splurge on the foundation but keep the basics, (i.e.- mascara, eyeshadow, blush) to a minimum by purchasing at Wal-mart, Target, etc. Go ahead and spend a little more on a great lipstick, too.

Mary Kay, hands down. I've tried both brands, and this is one case where the proof is in the price. It's worth the extra money for Mary Kay.

Well if I had to pick I'd say Avon..but an even better brand is Artistry!

Mary Kay, but I'm not crazy about it.
