I Was lucky enough to be selected to review the Avon Ultra Colour Lipstick and Big & Daring Volume Mascara.
The lipstick colour I received was Coral Burst. It has a soft creamy texture, even though it's a matte lipstick so my lips didn't dry out. It was quite long lasting and didn't transfer onto the glass that I was drinking, which I thought was absolutely fantastic. The colour itself is very bold. It's a mix of orange and bright red. Surprisingly it seemed to work. I applied a light coat of the lipstick and I outlined my lips with a deep red (almost maroonish) lipliner and I blended the two. So I was quite happy with the end result. The deep red seemed to even out the brightness of the shade and the end result was perfect. This one is definitely a keeper and a great addition to my HUGE lipstick collection. They are also quite reasonably priced so I would highly recommend anyone to try this range. A big thumbs up and 5 stars from me for this lipstick.
The Big & Daring Volume Mascara was a bit disappointing. It doesn't quite live up to its name. I had to apply two coats to get the desired big and bold effect. After applying two coats, my lashes felt heavy- not a very nice feeling. The brush was uncomfortable to use, because of its curved shape. I would have preferred the brush to be straight and the bristles wider - perhaps that would have given the bold look. The mascara scores 2 stars from me.
Thank you Beauty Bulletin for the opportunity to review these great products, and adding to my makeup collection.
