As a male Avon rep, I’m always thrilled when I hear women who enjoy Avon’s products. I’m an avid skincare enthusiast, so it’s easy for me to talk about the full line of Avon’s skincare products. The makeup? Since I don’t use it, it’s definitely harder to steer women into making the right choice.

I’ll cite your site as a recommendation for my female clients.

Hey Mo, we readers of Mythbusters know you are a big part of the coolest makeup blog on the internet! I’m with you on having mixed feelings over the course of my beauty obsession over Avon products – but I’ve come around. Why do we always think spending more money means its better? Anyway, Avon seems to always have great quality items for the price – thanks for the detailed reviews.
PS We have an Avon feature going up on weheartthis tomorrow – check it out for more reviews on a range of Avon products.

I tried the SpectraColor Lipstick and it was both a good and bad experience for me. I tried “the pinks” shade and since I am a fan of pink tones it worked well for me. I like how you can twist the tube to create your desired shade, but I know that I will probably run out of the lighter pink shade and be left with too much of the dark pink in the end. I am normally a gloss girl, so at first the word “lipstick” threw me off, but luckily this formula is very smooth and kind of an in-between gloss and lipstick, making it feel really nice and non-drying on the lips. The other thing I don’t like about the product is that the cap kept coming off in my purse. I would prefer a twist off top to avoid contamination of the applicator by my bag.

I tried one of Avon’s new lipsticks, and the color was fabulous. I generally steer clear of lipstick because I’m hesitant to say my face carries makeup very well. However, the lipstick was super lightweight, the color was soft, but noticeable, and I felt like it really complimented my skin tone.

It even had this deliciously minty gloss center that made my lips feel fresh and tingly long after applying it. It’s definitely a new part of my makeup regimen.

Geesh Mo! How awesome can you possibly be?!

I did also sample the 3-in-1 and although I liked the look and feel of the products, I didn’t really like how it was put together. It took me forever to figure out where the lipstick was, and my lip pencil broke the first time I sharpened it.

But for the price, still a pretty decent lip ensemble. Thanks for this amazing and detailed review. Awesomeness!
