I have to thank Beauty Bulletin for sending me these two samples. At first I was a bit hesitant because the last time I used an Avon lipgloss was over 3 years ago, and they discontinued that gloss. Also, one sample is in a very pink looking "pure pioppy", and I thought "No Ways!! I use minimal make-up, so I thought this was just going to stand out, or at worst, give me the "Donald Duck" look. It has this brilliant "just right" shine, making it absolutely wearable day and night. My lips are very dry, so I always walk around with a petroleum based lip moisturiser. I tried this gloss one morning, and instantly, my lips felt soft. I no longer needed my moisturiser. Also, there was no stickiness that normally goes with lipglosses. As someone in Sales, I do a lot of talking, and I thought this was going to require touchups every now and then. To my surprise, I didnt need touch-ups, except of course after a meal. The colour lasted a good few hours, and the thickness of the gloss made sure that it did not have that "leaking" effect, where the gloss starts leaking over your lips into your skin. All in all, brillinat product, I'm buying it again from my Avon rep, and it will remain a regular item going forward. Price-wise, at the current special, totally affordable!!!! Well done Avon!
