I received the Natural Flush colour lipstick together with the Heavenly Honey Lip-gloss and couldn't be more pleased as these colours really go well together. If you are going for the natural nude look then this is the perfect combination colours. I am an Indian woman and really fussy with the make-up colours I use.I love the lip-gloss as it isn't sticky and does not feel heavy. After applying the lip-gloss over the lipstick onto my lips, my lips feel fuller and it seems the lines on my lips are filled in giving my lips an even finished look. Not sure if the other reviewers noticed this too? It is a lovely product that stays in place for a long time, its moist and makes my lips feel soft and sexy.
I received the Ultra Wear lipstick and lipgloss and i was super impressed with the packaging. both tubes are well-constructed and do not have the 'cheap' feeling that most avon products seem to have.
it was already the end of the day when i went by the post office to pick up my package and i immediately applied the lipstick (pure orchid) on my way home. the lipstick glides on smoothly and the colour seems to go well with my complexion. I liked it. i also liked that it's not too shiny (my lips are too thick for that) nor is it true matte (most matte lipsticks dry out my lips). when i got home, after drinking some juice from a bottle on the way, the lipstick had not budged and i was happy with it.
The next morning i applied the lipstick again with gloss (blushing rose) over it. the combination looked great on me with a good sheen to it. i don't normally like wearing lipgloss because the stickiness annoys me, but this lipgloss is not sticky at all and gives a nice shine without looking juvenile. however I noticed during the day that my lips began chapping but i paid no mind to it. the day after, i wore the lipgloss on its own without lipstick underneath. it also glides on smoothly and still without any stickiness to it. it gave a nice tint to my lips, a bit of shine with a hint of pink, i quite liked it.
however, by the end of the day my lips were chapped again and that i did NOT like. that is the only con to these two products: nice colours and long-lasting but my lips reacted badly to them and ended up chapped and peeling. i gave it a few days and tried both products again over several more days, wearing them together and separately. each time i did, my lips would be chapped and peeling by the end of the day, despite taking care to reapply and even if i applied my lipbalm underneath and over the lipstick if when i wasn't wearing the gloss. while i love the colours and the consistency, chapped lips are not a cute look and i've had to put both these products away, which made me sad because i quite liked the colours.
I received two lipglosses ro review this month. The one in a soft pink shade, Creamy Coral andthe other a rich deep shade, Luminous Wine.
I was excited to receive both shades. the pink is light and can be worn everyday while the wine coloured one is richer which is perfect for winter.
im personally not a fan of lipglosses because its short wearing and it smudges, so one have to reapply quite often. I suppose it would work better when applied on top of a similar lipstick shade.
overall, its non sticky and very glossy so it works well ro brighten up your look.
I received Absolute Ultra Wear lipstick in Fresh Fig and Ultra Glazewear Absolute lipgloss in luminous wine. I really wanted to be as bowled a way by these as I am by Avon's Eye make-up and hair products that I am ADDICTED to... I was particularly interested in the nourishing claims for this product. I have VERY dry lips and every bit of of nourishment helps.
To be entirely honest the first time I used, especially the lipstick, I hated it. However, I have come to have a strange love/hate relationship with it. I'm more of a fan of the lipgloss.
Absolute Ultra Wear lipstick
What I Loved
- The texture. Really light, which is a big plus for me, I don't like feeling coated in makeup
- The colour. I know the product promises a huge colour payoff. Not true. But it's one of the things I liked. Maybe it's just the shade I got but I found the colour, while well pigmented, to be quite sheer. It's a great lippie for when you just have time for a quick swipe but still want it to look neat. Very ladylike.
- The sheen. A lil shine but not obnoxious
What I didn't like
- The texture. It slid off my lips really quickly. would've loved more staying power
- I found it quite drying. Right when you apply, it DOES feel nourishing but it soon deteriorates and starts feeling dry, and because the colour slips and fades so quickly adding balm is not the best idea
Ultra Glazewear Absolute lipgloss
What I loved
The colour pay-off. Way better than the lipstick.
GREAT gloss. Really pretty and shiny but not that weird cheap looking shine. This gloss looks like you spent some good money
As far as glosses go this one lasted quite well. I found it lasted better than the lipstick
What I didn't like?
The texture. Really thick and gloopy. It's a problem because you REALLY need to have a mirror to apply this one well and I prefer to be able to quickly reapply my gloss on the go. But this comes down to personal preference.
I'll be buying the lipgloss again. The lipstick, I'll pass on
I was very lucky to be chosen to review this product, thank you BeautyBulletin, you rock my world.
This lipgloss is a wonderful addition to my makeup collection. I received the Peach colour and it's a very soft colour, with a nice shine. It lasts a relatively decent amount of time and doesn't come off easily even if I gently lick my lips. The smell is nice but not strong at all.
I will wear this one when I apply heavy eye makeup to even things out. In all honesty I wouldn't spend R99 on the peach one again, but I would really like to try the radiant red one, my skin is a bit light for light colours to look amazing on me.
I was chosen as one of this months review members of this product. I love the products packaging soooo much because its mess and fuss free and not likely to leak or break easily which fits in perfectly in my make-up case and travel make-up bag. I love these two colours because they are exactly what I look for when I buy lip colour,Tender Pink gives that juicy spark of colour, perfect when then going out and still keeping your look uncomplicated and fun.
Renewing Rose is a day to day favourite for me, the colour is almost the exact same colour mine are naturally, which I like a lot because I like to keep my make-up natural throughout the week and on weekends. Overall I really like these lip glosses because they don't dry out my lips, my lips feel moisturised and softer than ever and it does not look cakey or fake and it has SPF 15 which is a huge plus since the skin on your lips are really thin and can easily be harmed by sunlight and UV rays, the colour if the gloss also doesn't fade easily and it isn't super sticky. I would recommend this lip gloss to every woman who wants soft lips and a spark of delicate colour
