I switched over to MN about 2 years ago and I love the products. Luckily I have a nearby store where I can try the products to get the perfect shade. I recently switched from the cream to powder foundation to the CC cream and very happy with it too. The rep advised me to press this foundation with my sponge and I have fallen asleep with it on and it's STILL on my face in the morning 🤣. Not on my pillowcase nor ever on my clothes.

Love those blush sticks and the double sided lipstick pencils. What's some of your favorites?

I also have some Laura Geller that I use to run out the door in a hurry.

Huh ... I had no idea that Merle Norman was still around.

I used Merle Norman for several years long ago but didn't know it was still around either.

I switched from MN to Clinique because the base started breaking out my face. 

Until that happened, I loved their products.

@Mustang Shar Funny you should share this story...I just went to my local Merle Norman store I. IOWA.I also purchased their powder foundation mascara and pencil eyeliner.I used to be a Clinic fan,but have switched over to Merle Norman products

Used MN many years ago. Don't know why I stopped, but it's probably because it wasn't in a local store any more.

The last time I went to a store and tried a foundation, it burned my face.  Was so disappointed as the shade was a perfect match.  Maybe things have changed and I should try again. 

I vividly remember the manager of one store.  She looked so dated........she was still wearing the contrasting lipliner which was much darker than her lipstick.  It had gone out of many many years ago.

Way back when I was in airline training we had a Merle Norman rep come in and show us their line and how to use it. They had a particular kit they were selling and I'm sure they made a lot of sales. I had no idea they were still around either.

I didn’t know Merle Norman was still around . I remember taking my 2 daughters to the mall in the 80’s to the MN store! It was a big deal then as one was around 7th and the other 9th! I still see that awful blue eyeshadow everyone wore then 😊snd of course that’s what they wanted. Did go out of fashion in yrs to come but made it’s come back in later yrs.

I didnt realize MN were still around either.

I used to love their nice, attractive, slim Lipstick Palettes & with no loser colors in them either! 

  And love how they offered samples or many/all items, before committing to purchase full size.

Actually, I think I remember Merle Norman Home Parties, unless I'm mixing it up with the umpty-nine other kinds of various Home Parties I went to.

We still have two locations in my city.  I started using them when I was 18 and now 62.  I do try others but total finish is tops with me and their lipstick last through meals. I have many women ask me at dinners what I am using because it is still on after dessert.
