Thank you to Beauty Bulletin and Avon for being chosen as one of the reviewers for the #AvonDareToBe challenge! I was over the moon when I received my post office parcel notification! Love those little midweek highs!
Lets start off with the Big and Daring Volume Mascara in Brown/Black... I love mascara... the bigger and bolder the eyelashes the better! My first trial of Brown/Black didn't disappoint. I love the way the brush managed to catch even the tiniest of corner lashes. The formula did dry quite quickly though which didn't allow for much layering of product. It lasted for the day in Durban humidity and prevented me from looking like a raccoon! Win! Removal of the mascara was a little challenging though did come off neatly without streaking which was great! Best part is I didn't experience any allergies which was a real bonus. Are there any other mascara junkies that would rather suffer the occasional allergy to have long thick luscious eyelashes... ? I guess just me then ;)
Moving on to the Ultra Colour Bold Lipstick in STARBURST PINK!
I LOVE the packaging... Hotpink and Black... GORGEOUS!!! I love the smell... I love the way it glides on smoothly... I love colour... I really wish the colour loved me though!!!(I wont scare you beauties with a pic!) I looked washed out :( I blotted and glossed and oh what a difference... I love it!

So I was one the ladies chosen to review avon's new bold looks!
I also attended the world record attempt by avon, so I was thoroughly spoilt, I got a mascara, which gives massive coverage in one stroke, mad props avon!! And lipstick in Ruby shock; coral burst, and vivid violet, the lipsticks glide on a smoothly and stay put, no feathering or bleeding outside the lines, I have done a swatch, but not outing pictures of my face or a video as I have just mag massive facial surgery, the colour payoff in the new avon lipstick range is huge, and a tiny amount goes a long way.
Ciao for now

Im a shy kinda nude lips gal..so when I got chosen for this challenge I was quite surprised and excited at the same time. I always want to try bolder colors but never felt I could pull them off. I received the shade Bright nectar, which is like a coral orange color. I love it because its not too daring but not so subtle either. The lipstick is so pigmented and just glides on. No need for a 2nd application. I love the smell too,somewhat fruity. I enjoyed being a little daring for a change with my makeup. I will definitely try other shades in this range. I think its quite reasonably priced as well. The packaging looks sleek and elegant.Thumbs up Avon.

AVON BIG & DARING VOLUME MASCARA
The Avon Big & Daring Volume Mascara claims the following: "5 x the volume and a clump-free, smudge-free, flake-free build, lasting 24 hours."
I found the mascara easy to apply. It was not clumpy, although I like the Avon Mega EffectsMascara better. It lasted the whole day, and just like it said it did not flake or smudge (which was weird because I rub my eyes ALL THE TIME!). Because it is so long lasting, I had trouble taking it off with my usually cleanser, but I am sure if you use a eye make-up cleanser, it will work fine.
Overall, I am quite impressed with the fact that it did not flake or smudge, and it felt very natural and light on my eyes.
ULTRA BOLD LIPSTICK - Pink Punch
First of all, the colour is indeed bold! I received the Pink Punch, and although I normally don't like flashy colours, I kind of liked this pink (I think it grows on you!). So I decided to be BOLD and wear it! The formula is really nice, feels like a lip balm and it also has a fruity smell which was nice. Not overpowering, just lingering. It has quite a decent staying power, and did not rub off quickly. I also tested by rubbing it off immediately after applying it, and it was quite a struggle, I was left with a nice pink tint. Just a last note, since the colour is quite bold, make sure you exfoliate your lips before applying (if you have problems with chapped/dry lips) as it will show quite easily through the colour.

I was thrilled to have received the latest addition to the Avon Dare to be Bold family, the Ultra Colour bold Lipstick in Pink Punch (Retailing at R139.95) and the Big and Daring Volume Mascara in Brown Black (Retailing at R129.95).
First off, the Pink Punch lipstick was really not a colour I would normally pick for myself, I’m more of a Bare Impact or Starburst Pink kinda gal, but I was willing to accept the challenge.
The lipstick comes in a lovely easy to open shine black container, and the burst of colour is amazing. It’s one of Avon’s boldest lip colours yet with 50% more pigments packed in every lipstick vs traditional Avon lipsticks. The colour stays on for hours and I have received numerous compliments from friends and family members every time I’ve put it on. So it makes me feel quite Bold when I’m wearing this. When using my Pink Punch lipstick I try to town down my eye shadow as if you apply to heavy eye makeup you may look like a Transvestite!
It’s a brilliant, vibrant and intense colour that you achieve in just one application and it’s on special now for only R69.95 in your latest Avon brochure.
Secondly I received the Big & Daring volume mascara in Brown Black which also is not my usual pick as I normally opt for the black shades. The packaging is very modern and chic with the wedge shaped bristles it promises to give you a 360’ explosive lash volume.
I find that one coat of mascara was not enough to create that Explosive look so I used 2 coats every time, and I have to say the curved brush gave me explosive clump-free volume. I had no smudging or flaking at all and it resisted heat and humidity quite well on the days I’ve worn it.
The Volume Mascara is also on special now for R64.95 in your latest Avon catalogue.
All in all I can recommend these two products, and I would love to try out the other shades in these ranges.

After waiting in eager anticipation for my Rapid Rose Ultra Colour Bold lipstick and Big and Daring volume mascara to arrive, I have used both products a number of times over the past couple of weeks. I am older (47) so am not entirely sure that ultra bold colour lipstick is me and the shade I selected, Rapid Rose, seems closer to the Bright Nectar in hue as it has a more corally hue, however I must say that I love the way it goes on and doesn't seem to dry out the lips... it also has reasonably good staying power.
As far as the mascara is concerned, I do have rather sensitive eyes and the mascara doesn't seem to irritate as some mascara's do. I think the main reason for this is that it really is smudge (and water) proof and stays on! Although I generally prefer a straight wand, the curved wand doesn't make application too tricky and definitely gives nicely defined volumised lashes.
Avon products are definitely right up there in terms of price and most certainly quality.

I was sent the Big & Daring Mascara in Black, and the Avon Ultra Colour lipstick in Max Mocha.
I was actually surprised. I would never wear such a "bold" colour.
Being fair skinned, it didn't even suit me much.
But this is the entire point of the challenge, right?
So I braced myself and put my best pout forward.
The pigmentation and colour pay off of this lipstick is phenomenal!
And applies like butter!
What shocked me the most was that when wearing this lipstick, my lips looked and felt super smooth.
And even those little lines on my lips kind of disappeared.
Not forgetting to mention that it is long lasting. What more could a woman ask for?
Moving on to the mascara.
My favourite makeup item would definitely be mascara. And I'm glad to have been given the opportunity to try this 1 out.
And boy am i thrilled!
1stly, I love the shape of the brush. It fits the angle of my eye so perfectly and makes application easier.
The formula is perfect, not too wet and not too dry.
And it doesn't clump.
1 coat is enough to give your eyes and lashes some va-va-voom.
But if you're feeling more daring, that 2nd coat won't hurt ;)
When Avon claimed it won't smudge or flake and can last up to 24 hours, I didn't think it was possible. ALL mascaras flake after some time.
But 1 night, I fell asleep without washing my face.
I didn't have any other makeup on, just mascara so I thought it wouldn't be such a big deal if i didn't wash it off.
At the same time putting the mascara to the test.
And wow! When i woke up, I kid you not, my eyelashes looked perfectly fresh, as if i had just applied my mascara.
No clumping, no flaking, no smudging.
Needless to say, this is now my new favourite mascara.
Thank you Beauty Bulletin and Avon.

I'm not the type of girl to wear bright coloured lipstick. I always think 'it's too much' or 'it might look weird'. I'd feel more comfortable only dabbing the colour on my lips, blending it, removing a bit with a tissue, re-applying just a little bit and voila! All set to have just enough colour on my lips.
But then, along came Avon and Beauty Bulletin, daring me to be bold.
At first I was very hesitant with the Starburst Pink, it's very pink. I believe it's the same shade my favourite Barbie wore when I was a kid (so you can imagine how pink it must be...).
But, I opened the packaging with an open mind and as I removed the sleek black cap of the lipstick, the beautiful barbie pink colour peered at me, daring me to try it.
It applies great; it glides smoothly onto your lips and the lovely floral scent adds that extra feminine touch. It chaffed a little on my lower lips, but nothing a little Vaseline can’t fix ;)
This lipstick is perfect for spring when we are celebrating colour after a dark and grey winter and this bold hue really celebrates womanhood. Be proud of your pout and wear that bright colour with confidence.
The colour will last at least two hours, but then it's just as bright as when you applied it earlier. After a few coffees it will start to fade though (which is understandable).
As usual, Avon offers good quality at low prices, so you really strike a bargain with this lipstick.
I think the most difficult part of this lipstick is picking your favourite colour. With so many shades, Avon has given women everywhere a chance to be bold, to dare to stand out and own the spotlight with a proud pout. Barbie will be proud.

Ultra Bold Lipstick - Vivid Violet. . I'm loving the colour, it's really really bold.
Always looking for a good moisturiser as well as a good colour. And this ultra bold lipstick does it for it.
It also fits with my skin colour because I'm so light, however in future il go for a more pinkesh because I love pink lips or more red.
In all this is a good lipstick, really worth spending a few pennies for a good look also its keeps those lips nice and moist for long

I was sent these products by the wonderful beauty bulletin team. The colour ofthe lipstick product is max mocha and the big and daring volume mascara is black. To be perfectly honest I have never wore such a rich dark brown shade of lipstick before. However I was pleasantly surprised that the pigmentation of the cllour was rich and buildable on application. I applied one coat to my lower lip and blotted it with mytop lip thereafter I applied a second coat for an even darker colour. My lips are naturally quiet dark and I am plesantly pleased with the easy application and I would recommend this product toanyone who loves to experiment with colour. This product has allowed me to feel its okay to experiment with different colours and tones. It makes a bold statement. It lasts on average of 4 hours. Note that the time included me eating and drinking. All in all an excellent buy.
I apply my lip makeup first, thereafter i apply my eye makeup. I usually just put on mascara. In testing the mascara I was pleasantly surprised with the ease of application. I normally make a mess of mascara and then I often have to retouch my foundation. The handle allows for an easy grip.when applying it you have to work relatively quickly as it dries quiet fast. The colour was really dark. There were no clumps on my first application. There is a noticeably difference in eyelawh lenght after one coat. To get the best results rotate the brush while applying the mascara. I testedto see if it would smudge or flake and it doesn't great value for money

What a great trial this was - Avon Ultra Colour Bold Lipstick in BERRY BOLD and Avon Big & Daring Volume Mascara in BLACK.
I absolutely loved both of these products and took great delights in breaking the "rules" which say one should either have bold lips or bold eyes, not both.
The lipstick has a great texture, very moisturising and lasts a good long time. And it certainly is "ultra" and "bold"! It's very bright, only one coat needed (where I usually do at least 3 coats) and stays bright for quite a while.
Unfortunately, the Berry Bold was really not the right colour for me - it's a tone of red that really doesn't suit me, looking quite orange on me. But it's still wearable and I did get lots of compliments so perhaps it's just me being over-sensitive.
The mascara also lives up to its name. This is a great find for me as I struggle with keeping mascara on my lashes and not in raccoon circles under my eyes. It amazed me how well it stayed in place with no smudging at all. And it gave me lashes like I'd had extensions! It has a really different brush - curved with different widths along the length of it. I found it worked really well to coat the lashes without caking them. Usually I have to use a little brush to take off the clumps of mascara as I do like my lashes to look relatively natural. However, I had no need for that with this mascara as my lashes looked awesome but not unnatural!
All in all, I loved these products. I'll definitely stick with the mascara and perhaps try a different colour in the lipstick.

Talk about BOLDNESS indeed. Not so long ago i was introduced to boldness when it comes to colour on lips by Avon, Ooh boy did l love and enjoy the results. Now with the new Ultra colour Bold lipstick, i received a very odd colour and just the thoughts of walking around with it sent shivers down my spine - i received the Bright Nectar, it`s got an orange colour when you look at it, but somehow i fell in love with it with my first attempt. Boldness was unleashed, in application it gives you a nudish colour, leaving your lips looking naturally nourished, beautiful and inviting. Even my husband loves the shade. Thank you Avon for this trial and have already ordered two more shades from my representative (Pink punch and Rapid Rose). SO DARING!!!

I received my #AvonDareToBe Bold lipstick and mascara about two weeks ago and have been wearing especially the mascara since then.
The lipstick colour is called Rapid Rose and is quite subtle, which I love. Usually I would not even look at colour that isn't in the plum/wine colour spectrum. But I might have to reconsider that.
The lipstick is matte, applies smoothly to my lips and feels light. It has a faint rosy scent. I like everything about it.
I received a black Big daring volume mascara. The brush is wide and gives volume to my lashes. A lot of excess mascara stuck onto the brush though. And removing the mascara was a mission and a half.
I liked that the mascara wasn't runny and didn't smudge at any point.
In all I really liked these two bold products - especially considering the low price - that took me out of my comfort zone.

Receiving the Avon Vivid Violet and the Big and Daring Volume mascara has definitely made my Spring brighter. I have been using these for well over a week now and I must say, I am madly in love with the awesome products. Thanks to Avon and Beauty Bulletin for these amazing products. I love the mascara which give my lashes volume and the lovely lipstick colour which has inspired me to wear matching bright and beautiful outfits. I am also eager to purchase other beautiful colours which I fell in love with when I saw the book from Avon. Every girl deserves to have these products which are perfect for the spring and summer seasons ahead.

l am very excited to be doing this review. The Ultra colour bold lipstick l received from Avon is called Rapid Rose. And true to its name the lipstick is bold and vibrant. Love the fact that it just glides on the lips when applying, feels smooth and moisturizes the lips. l would certainly recommend the Avon Ultra colour bold lipstick range for an lady wanting vibrancy, colour and to really stand out. My favorite of the two was the Big & Daring mascara, l loved that it really made my lashes look big and gave them volume (now l can really bat my lashes lol). Before this l was not a fan of mascara but now l am hooked :)

I was very excited to be selected to try the Avon Ultra Bold Lipstick and Big and Daring Volume Mascara.
Initially I was disappointed when I saw that the colour of mascara I had received was brown/black. Although I am very pale I love thick, dark lashes so I always opt for blackest black. Having said that, I was actually pleasantly surprised at the brown/black as it is still sufficiently dark, particularly for daytime. The mascara creates beautiful volume and this is definitely one I will buy for myself when it comes to an end. In the beginning i found the wand quite chunky and a little tricky to control, but I have got the hang of it now and have no problems.
The lipstick colour that I received was Berry Bold, and I was over the moon about this as I have a complete red lipstick fetish at the moment! After only wearing nude colours for many years I recently discovered my love of red lipstick and have been snapping them up in varying shades and textures.
The Avon Ultra Bold lipstick has a very soft creamy texture which applies easily and smoothly. Berry Bold is a beautiful bright red (in the photo it looks a bit more orange than it does in real life). It lasts surprisingly well for a creamy lipstick, however as I am not one to reapply my lipstick every few hours, when wearing red I think I will stick to my long-lasting variants.
Initially I was disappointed when I saw that the colour of mascara I had received was brown/black. Although I am very pale I love thick, dark lashes so I always opt for blackest black. Having said that, I was actually pleasantly surprised at the brown/black as it is still sufficiently dark, particularly for daytime.

I got the surprise of my life when I got the notification from my post office that I had a parcel to fetch and found that it was from Beauty Bulletin with Avon products. I received the Big and daring volume mascara (black) and Dare to be bold lipstick (brown). Now I don't wear lipstick because it tends to dry my lips out but I found the Avon lipstick to moisturising. It glides on the lips effortlessly and does nor leave you feeling like you need to apply gloss on top of it. I absolutely loved that and I will definitely try other colours as well.
I have non-existent eye lashes. The little bit I do have points to all sorts of directions so the mascara for me the works the best are ones with tiny brushes. The Avon Big and Daring volume mascara has a big brush and that didn't work well for my lashes. However, I must mention that I didn't experience any lumps.

I must start off by saying that I'm becoming more and more impressed with Avon's colour products. I received the colour burst lipstick in bright nectar, the texture and colour intensity is amazing. And the smell is also very appealing. Sadly though ,the colour does not go with my skin tone. I looked terribly washed out. I was really excited to try out a bright new colour but it definitely won't go to waste, I will use the lipstick on my next client with the compatible skin tone. Being all excited to go bright with my luscious lashes,I decided to make the look work by using another Avon colour, the pure orchid lipstick.
I rimmed my eyes with black eyeliner and kept the colour very nude. I applied 2 layers of mascara. The brush of the Big and Daring volume mascara is stunning. It's wide and allows you to grip from root to tip. The end of the brush gets perfectly into the corners to apply on shorter lashes. It completed by bright #AvonDareToBe summer look perfectly. And lasted the day

I was so very excited to have been chosen to review the new Avon Ultra Colour Bold lipstick and Big & Daring Volume Mascara! The lipstick shade I received was Bare Impact, which is a very soft nude colour. The mascara is a brown/black. Let's start with the mascara:
Personally, I like a black mascara best, because I think it makes a bigger difference. So I'm not too fond of the shade. I feel there are two MAJOR downsides to this new mascara. The first is that it is SO waterproof that even with makeup remover, wipes and washing my face, I couldn't get it off! Luckily, a friend on here suggested I try coconut oil. I did try it last night, and was astounded to find it actually worked! (Thanks for the top tip, Lizna!)So be prepared, you'll likely struggle to get it off. The second issue I have is that the hole in the tube is too big, so it doesn't get rid of excess product on the wand, which is inconvenient. Too much product on the wand can cause smudging and a cakey effect. The brush is quite large, so I struggle to coat every strand without making a mess. The mascara also definitely needs two coats to be really effective. However, when I go to the trouble of applying it properly, in two coats, the effect is quite good! I was even asked if I had falsies or extensions going! I'd give the mascara a 3 out of 5. I'd prefer a smaller brush, and the hole in the tube really needs to be smaller.
Now, to the lipstick! As I said, I received the Bare Impact shade. It is a light nude, and not a shade I would normally wear. In terms of "Daring to be bold", this shade doesn't really scream bold to me. However, I really like the lipstick. It goes on easily, and the formula is fabulously rich without being too heavy. It doesn't dry my lips out at all, and has a good wearability to it. It lasts long, and stays gorgeous! I'd definitely give some of the "Bolder" shades a try!
I've covered all of the points in my video review as well - although, I must apologise for the sniffling in the video - I'm recovering from the flu. It's also my very first video review, so I was so nervous, and when I get nervous I get a bit...uh, let's call it awkward!

So, I'm not very "fond" of make up, but when I do go out, it's a different story. I've got a VERY sensitive skin so I'm really skeptical about products. I received my Big & Daring volume mascara, oh and my lipstick. The first day I received it, I applied it and I was actually very impressed with both products. I received the Bare Impact lipstick, which I must say, it is so smooth on my lips and it doesn't make my lips feel dried out. I simply LOVE it. The mascara, to me the bristles/brush is a bit too bulky, would like something a bit more thinner, but I must say, my lashes never curled so nicely before. It really opens up my eyes and it works perfectly if you like the smokey look. I didn't have any problems removing the mascara, to me it washes off easily.

Firstly, a big thank you to Avon and Beauty Bulletin for the awesome Vivid Violet lipstick and Big and Daring black mascara. I really appreciate being able to increase my make-up collection, especially when it's not at my expense :)...so thank you!!
Anyway, so let's start off with what I wore prior to receiving these products.
I was always an 'I need to have lip colour' kind of girl, but I rarely wore bright or bold colours, so when I got my review products, I was quite surprised.
After I picked up my products I immediately tried the Vivid Violet lipstick. I must say, it's really prominent and bold, and also has a purplish, metallic undertone. It literally glides on so it's super easy to apply. The packaging itself is feminine and bold, and looks like something I'd gladly show off when showing it to my girls. I truly love the colour, and I actually wear it daily. I also love the fact that I'm able to adjust the saturation of it (by applying less/more coats) because I do feel having it too bold is a teency bit too much for the work place.
Now, let's talk about the mascara. I honestly couldn't care much when it comes to wearing mascara because I have really sensitive eyes, so I hardly wear it (even though I sometimes really want to). It really is Big and Daring, however, because of my really sensitive eyes, it burns like hell when I apply and remove it. It also takes some time to remove even when using make-up remover. Overall, I'd probably really love it and wear it daily if it didn't irritate my eyes.
Here's my ratings (0 being the least, 5 being the most):

Okay. So, I'm not really a lipstick person but was excited for this challenge so that I could actually try it out and get out of my comfort zone. Unfortunately, the colour I received, Starburst Pink, was faaarrr too out of my comfort zone. It did not go well with my skin tone at all, and wearing it made me feel like I could be part of the cast in Jersey Shore! It also helped that I have brutally honest siblings and they all gave me a huge NO :(. I asked a few lighter skinned people to try it out and they all felt the colour was too "Barbie" and plastic for them to wear.
That said, I love the way this lipstick smells! It glides on really nicely, the texture is matte and creamy, and the pigment stays for a while.
I also received the Big & Daring Volume Mascara in brown/black which I love. It applies easily and was clump free. The colour is quite nice too. The formula is very wet which builds up nicely to create volume. Removal is a bit of a pain - I had to use facial makeup remover wipes and baby oil to try and get it off.

Hi all you beauties! I have done a video review but I seem to be having problems uploading it so as soon as I have fixed it, I will upload it.
So instead I will do this written review! I received the Avon Ultra Colour Bold Lipstick in Bright Nectar! It is definitely a bold Colour and out of my comfort zone. Because of my skin tone, I do not think I could pull it off. That being said, I do love the smell of the lipstick (I wanted to eat my lips up) and the ease with which it glides onto my lips. It does not dry the lips and I do not need to add any lipgloss at all, that's how great it is.
I also got the Avon Big & Daring Volume Mascara in black brown and I LOVE it! The brush is curved and the bristles are long making it easy to apply, clump-free. The Colour looks more natural than the black which is what I normally buy. I would definitely recommend trying this mascara out.
So just try them, dare to be bold!

Avon has created a fabulous lipstick that glides in a creamy manner i don't have to apply layers to have the effective look, it didn't dry/crack my lips or leave a whitish residue. Im a fan of red shades but Mocha is my new shade.
im so in love with extended lashes the mascara gives in less than 3applications compared to other brands. It is easy to remove at night, doesn't give a heavy n dry effect on the lashes.
thank you Avon and Beauty Bulletin

I received my Pink lipstick and Mocha Mascara.
1) The lipstick - Not my color so i gave it to my mom to try (her color) her findings was as follows. The formula was lightly creamy and applied easily. This shade wore well for a couple of hours, and then that was it, no more color. It's more matte than glossy.
2) The Mascara - I tried the mascara and found it terrible. On applying the mascara it was all over my eyes. It's not waterproof. What i liked though it's not thick and it did not spat all over when you pull the brush out of the bottle. The angled brush applies easy. Love the color but not working for me.
I prefer the Avon Ultra Color rich lipstick range.

i was one of the ladies chosen to review the avon dare to be bold products. i received the Avon Big and Daring Mascara in brown- black and Avon Ultra Colour Bold Lipstick in Rapid Rose.First off the packaging looks amazing and i was so excited to try them out. The mascara was so easy to apply it gave my eyelashes more volume and it looked amazing.i was so happy that i was able to apply it on with so much ease because normally i have such trouble having to apply mascara.I have never tried brown-black before but ever since iv used it im never going back. The Avon Ultra Colour Bold Lipstick in Rapid Rose was not suited to my skintone as it gave a more neon hue so i mixed it with my usual lipstick shade and the results were fabulous i would rate my look from going normal to BOLD.THANK YOU AVON FOR TAKING ME OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE AND LETTING ME EXPERIENCING SOMETHING NEW :)

I was one of the lucky ladies to be chosen to do a review on the Avon Big and Daring Mascara and Avon Ultra Colour Bold Lipstick.
What can I say?! Avon has done it yet again and brought out a wonderful product.
The mascara is amazing. It makes me lashes look fuller and longer and I only have to use one application, where I usually have to do about two or three to get the volume I would want.
It washes off easily as well and that is one thing I really have to have from a mascara as waking up with black eyes is not cool.
As for the lipstick, well I'm not always one to wear a lipstick, but with receiving the Bare Impact shade, it is awesome. It is a natural shade that I can wear with just about any colour eye shadow and it makes my lips look even more beautiful as well. It brings out the lines around my mouth and with me having a small mouth it is something that I really need.
Avon is really bringing out amazing products and I will suggest to anyone and everyone to go out and get there products. Well done Avon!!!

I was chosen to review the Avon ultra colour bold lipstick and the big and daring mascara thank you Avon and Beauty Bulletin for the opportunity. The lipstick is magnificent I loved putting in the feeling it gives you, like you can conquer the world ;). It is really well pigmented I got mine in the shade bare impact which is a rather natural look but is still a very vibrant color, very sexy and professional look. And the mascara was absolutely amazing its my personal favorite now, it lasts a very long time definitely waterproof and also very pigmented also the curved brush helps a lot. I would definitely be buying both again. I would say I am between divine and dramatic on the boldometer :D

I was the lucky recipient of 2 avon dare to be bold lipsticks; a berry red which I received in my avon goodie bag at the avon event and a starburst pink from my avon friend, yeah lucky me.
The Beey bold colour was actually not intetional because we were told that we could select the correct colour upfront at the avon event and just ask for it at the gate but, this did not happen. That is how I ended up with this colour.
Nevertheless, at the event, for 1 minute we had to apply lipstick which created a totally bold lip colour look and though, I do not believe this to be a colour suited for me, many people at the venue shouted when they saw me: Wow, you are transformed!. I did not beleive a word and somehow felt that I looked awful with heavy red lips.
The starburst pink is a nice rosy colour which I had hoped would suit me better but, I don't think so either. In fact, I think it makes me look worse. Please see pics below. Not really a better choice.
My take on the lipsticks:
Very moisturising and great matte look with ultra notice me colour and bold features, love the colours just having trouble finding one suited to me. Very reasonably priced and can be worn all day.
Not so great things for me:
The lipsticks are not colour stay and I find myself having to re-apply after about 2 hours or so and, its not just a touch up; I have to wipe and re-apply from scratch so I do not end up with colour lines all over my lips. The lipstick also often rubs off on my clothes, food and teeth, no cool and causes my lips to flake if I don't apply a lipbalm underneath.
Overall its a great lipstick with great bold colours.
So, are you prepared to boldly go where no lips have gone before?

I received my parcel about two weeks ago. I like the mascara most it made my lashes visible. Also like the packaging of both the lipstick and mascara. I did not like the shade of my lipstick, it clashed with my skin tone and it not what I requested. Anyway it is soft on the lips and it lasts. I have made an order with an agent, it will be arriving soon.

Secondly the colour is not one that I would normally wear but it actually looked great once applied and did give me that BOLD feeling lol. The colour I was given was Pink Punch and wow amazing .So easy to apply creamy and thick excellent quality. I would love to try more colours in this Ultra Bold range , this is a statement lipstick for sure. Just love it a worthy buy with a great price range and quality .

The mascara I received in Black was in a generous sized tube. It was so easy to apply with the large brush, without clumping and remained remarkably in place the whole day without flaking. It really made my eyelashes look like they were full of volume and lengthier.
The Max Mocha shade of lipstick that I received did glide on beautifully and leave my lips quite moisturised. I found it a tad bit overpowering and it looked a bit gothic combined with my pale complexion. I wanted to look bold, not sinister so the second time I applied it I wanted to tone it down a bit. I therefore applied it with a light hand and some lipgloss. I was left with a look that sparkled and I was quite impressed overall.

Well was I surprised to receive the Dare to be Bold mascara and lipstick. Firstly, the mascara is my new alltime favourite. I LOVE the bigger want. I thought that nobody will ever make a mascara again with a nice BIG want. I could not get use to that plastic applicator or the comb applicator with wich same of the mascara's comes out in the market, these days.
Secondly, the lipstaick was a AAAAAAA moment, I thought well, just my luck, when I receive two tester possiblities, I would only like one, at the most. I would never, EVER have thought to buy a nude, natural colour, but what a change, a GOOD change, i like the look. I immediatly contacted my AVON rep and order, JUST INCASE, another lipstick in the same colour, and well, with that price I ended up ordering 3. Thank you very must for introducing me to my new all time great, must haves.

This lipstick is absolutely beautiful! The texture and smell is beyond amazing and it lasts really really long. BUT..... The color is way too dark! I'm not sure what ethnicity this May suit but it's a no go zone for me. It just stains my lips and makes it look like I have really dark lips naturally. I would totally recommend this beauty but most certainly in another shade! Xoxo

I was very fortunate to be chosen to review the Avon Bold lipsticks.
It is safe to say that looks can be decieving! I recieved the lipstick in Pink Punch. When I opened the lipstick the color looked quite ordinary and not bold at all. Well what a pleasant surprise I got when I applied it! One application and it looked like a million dollars! The quality of avon lipstick is extrodinary! I applied it only once and it stayed on even after many cups of coffee! Normally I do not wear bright colors - in fact I wear very little make-up as a rule when I go to work. So when I arrived at work with my lipstick on I recieved so many compliments and my colleages were very impressed! In fact I was so happy with my lipstick that I now keep it in my handbag for quick applications!
Thank you Avon for such a fabulous product and thank you Beauty Bulletin for making me one happy bold lady!

To be BOLD, or not to be BOLD, that is the question!
Whenever you are given the option to be BOLD, take it! I was very lucky to be chosen to review Avon’s BOLD lipstick, and received the shade Coral Burst plus the Big and Daring Volume Mascara in Brown Black to try out.
The colour of the lipstick is absolutely fantastic. It is an orangey red, and you can never go wrong with a good red lip. The pigment is strong and the lipstick is moisturising, so even applying it over my somewhat winter-chapped lips, it glided on smoothly and didn’t looked cracked.
I loved the boldness of the colour and it definitely made me feel a BOLD on the boldometer! The lipstick also has a sweet fragrance to it and smells lovely when applied. True to Avon's promise, one swipe of the lipstick over your lips is all you need to create a vibrant look.
In fact, I felt so bold that I decided to do something a little daring – something that I only had the confidence to do due to the boldness of my lips. I had heard about a certain cab service in America that lets a regular Joe Soap become a taxi driver, and he can arrange through their app to drive you to your destination for a fee. This service has recently come to South Africa, and was very hesitant at first to use it as I was terrified that a serial killer would pick me up and I would never be seen again! But I threw caution to the wind as I started up the app and was assigned a random driver. As I waited in anticipation, I applied the awesome Avon Big and Daring Volume Mascara on my lashes and another layer of Avon Ultra Colour Bold Lipstick (not that I needed it but it felt so moisturising on my lips!) and made my way outside to meet my driver. Pleasantly surprised, my driver was a lovely man who took me to my destination quickly and safely without the faintest hint of kidnap or murder (bonus points!)
After the great experience with the taxi, I decided to test out the lipstick in another situation where I knew I would need the confidence that only comes from wearing a great, BOLD lipstick – having permanent eyeliner done! I had had permanent eyeliner done before, but I was really scared to get it done again. It can be quite painful and the idea of someone wielding a needle at my eyeball makes me more than a little anxious! Unfortunately I was not able to wear the awesome mascara as I was not allowed to wear any makeup around my eye for the procedure, but I nervously applied my Avon Ultra Colour Bold lippie and took one last look at my face before going in. As I saw how great I looked with beautiful blood red lips, my nerves started melting away and I just knew I would be ok – sore and puffy, but ok. I was not allowed to wear any makeup around my eyes for a couple of days after the procedure but that didn’t bother me, with lashings of Avon’s BOLD lipstick, everyone’s eyes were drawn to my lips and they didn’t notice that my eyes were red and puffy!
I love being BOLD with this lipstick and will definitely be getting more shades of this. There are 10 in total and I have two of them - the Coral Burst which is a orange-red colour and Vivid Violet which is an awesome purple colour. There are a good mix of pinks, reds, oranges, browns and purples to choose from - a shade to match any skin tone!
The mascara is also great - it has a curved applicator and goes on really well without any flaking or smudging throughout the day.
If you choose be BOLD, then show it with this great lipstick!

I am crazy, about makeup that is! But even for me the new range of Avon Bold and Daring Range really pushed the boundaries in terms of delivering vivid colours that really make your best features stand out.
I was sent the Avon Big & Daring Volume Mascara in the Black shade and it was really outstanding. The bottle was large and the brush really easy to use and efficient. It delivered a lovely coat of mascara to all my lashes with ease in just one stroke.
The lipstick that I received was also not a shade I would usually go for in Bright Nectar but I was unusually surprised. It worked well with my olive complexion giving me a nice peaches and cream effect. Perfect for spring and it had that nice creamy texture that glided on well and kept my lips moisturised.
All in all this was a perfect combination at a decent price to really enhance my natural features.

Who says you can't be BOLD & BEAUTIFUL?
With the new range of Avon BOLD Lipsticks - you can!
I was ecstatic to find out I had been selected for the Avon BOLD Lipstick review. I eagerly awaited the post and ripped open the package as soon as it arrived.
I think Avon products are a well-kept secret. Their products are reasonably priced, compared to most in-store products and maintain an incredibly high quality. They are always coming up with different and innovative ways to make red carpet ready makeup, accessible to everyone.
Like many girls, I love makeup and apply liberally every morning. However I find by the time I’m ready for my first cup of coffee at work, my lipstick is fighting to survive…I don’t know what it is, but lipstick tends to disappear off my lips, not too long after I have applied it. My friends will tell you that I have eaten it along with my breakfast or I talk too much! But am I right in saying, it should at least last the morning?
Well I was thrilled to discover that the Avon ‘Pink Punch’ I tried out, did exactly that – It lasted! It was creamy and nourishing when applying and glided across my lips effortlessly, creating a shiny WOW Pink excitement. I really like how it kept my lips moisturized and well coated for longer than my other lipsticks. So I give this product a 10 out of 10!

I'm big on statement lips and bold mascara, so was excited to be a part of this review panel! I received an Avon Ultra Colour Bold Lipstick in Starburst Pink & Avon Big & Daring Volume Mascara in Brown Black.
Loving the packaging of the Avon Ultra Colour Bold Lipstick, in pretty cerise & black, I tried that first & have been using it for a week. It's advertised as having 50% more pigment, and this is great because it has excellent coverage & gives one a big bang of colour when applied. I also enjoyed that it feels creamy and moisturising when applied and smells delicious, with a sweet, floral scent. This isn't my personal favourite shade of pink - it's quite an ice-cream shade, whereas I prefer a more dramatic deeper pink - but is lovely for spring or teens wanting a pretty pink look. I'd rate this shade a 5 on the Boldometer and it looks quite natural if blotted a little. On me personally each application lasted about 3 hours before I needed to reapply. Avon's September special of 2 Ultra Colour Bold lipsticks for R120 makes this lipstick even more attractive.
When I first opened the Big & Daring Volume Mascara I was slightly disappointed that the jar is so huge - not small purse friendly - however, it's necessary for the big curved wand. It applies smoothly, although I found using the outside edge of the wand easier for application because it kept my lashes separate, whereas using the inside of the curved edge made it clump a little. I only used the inside edge at the end of application to curl my lashes up. The application lasts all day and looks great - I definitely had big, voluminous lashes as promised. I found it a bit drying, so would recommend using it with a lash conditioner or oil. Priced on the September special at R64.95, it's also extremely inexpensive compared to similar products.
One down side of these products is that they contain petrochemicals & the mascara contains parabens, so they're not something I would use every day. However, I really enjoyed the new look achieved using them & the new lipstick shade added some fun to my workday.
