When a lipstick promises 25% more pigment and nourishing oils, you expect something special. And after putting three Ultra Matte and three Ultra Creamy lipsticks to the test, I can confidently say that Avon delivered on that promise.
Shade Range & Pigment
The Ultra Matte lipsticks I tried – Berry Blast 36, Ruby Kiss 30, and Nude Suede 3– packed a serious punch in the pigment department. From the deep, sultry tones of Berry Blast to the striking vibrancy of Ruby Kiss and the soft elegance of Nude Suede, the color payoff was nothing short of impressive. One swipe was all it took to get the shade exactly as seen in the tube – no patchiness, no uneven coverage, just pure, bold colour. Shade Ruby Kiss was my favourite one.
As for the Ultra Creamy range – Red 2000 (68), Blush Nude (55), and Country Rose (58) – they lived up to their name with a smooth, hydrating feel. The creamy formula made application effortless, gliding on like a dream. Red 2000 was a showstopper, a true, classic red with a rich, almost velvety shine. Blush Nude was the perfect understated neutral, while Country Rose offered a fresh, romantic pop of pink.
Feel & Comfort
Despite their intense pigmentation, the matte lipsticks weren’t overly drying a major plus for those who love a matte look but hate the discomfort that often comes with it. There was a velvety smoothness that felt surprisingly comfortable throughout the day.
The creamy lipsticks were pure luxury on the lips, ultra-smooth, non-sticky, and infused with nourishing oils that left my lips feeling soft and hydrated. They’re the perfect pick for anyone who prefers a silky, moisturising lipstick without sacrificing colour payoff.
Longevity & Performance
The matte formula held up exceptionally well, with minimal touch-ups needed even after a meal. The creamy shades, while not as long-wearing as the mattes, still offered impressive staying power for such a hydrating formula. They faded gracefully, leaving behind a soft stain rather than an uneven mess.
Value for Money
At R774 for six shades, these lipsticks feel like a steal. You’re getting high-end quality at an affordable price, with luxurious formulas that rival premium brands. The colour payoff, comfort, and long-lasting wear make them worth every cent.
Final Thoughts
Avon Ultra Lipsticks deliver on their claims, providing vibrant, true-to-tube colour with a nourishing feel. Whether you’re after a bold, transfer-resistant matte or a hydrating, creamy finish, these lipsticks won’t disappoint. With such an extensive shade range and high-performance formula, there’s something for everyone.
Would I recommend them? Absolutely If you are looking for an affordable lipstick that doesn’t compromise on quality, Avon Ultra Lipsticks are a must-try.
