Avon has been spoiling us bloggers again. Not long ago they sent us a summery themed package. I decided to do a whole blogger mail post, because I like doing them and I probably wouldn't do a whole post about each of the products, so I wanted to just do one post with mini reviews. I will leave the current offers, as well as the normal prices and you can see the current catalog here. This one is available until 6th of September.
Avon Luxe Shape Sensation Lipstick in Incredible
The packaging of the lipstick is stunning, all gold and shiny. It closes well and you don't have to worry that it will accidentally open in your purse or makeup bag. At the bottom it has a sticker, that's the same colour as the lipstick shade and it also has the name of the shade. It is a cool toned red. I don't normally wear red lipsticks because I have quite a childish face and in my opinion it looks weird, but I think this one kind of suits me. It has the same minty scent as the lip gloss from the Mark collection I was talking about in my other post. It has a creamy formula that's very pigmented, so of course, you have to be careful when applying it. Just like the same scent, it also has the same effect as the lip gloss, a bit tingly and cooling. By the lip gloss I didn't really like it, but now I think I maybe got used to it, it doesn't bother me much, it feels quite nice. It tingles because the middle of the lipstick contains collagen, which is supposed to plump up the lips. It has a creamy, but not so much shiny finish and it kind of sets on the lips and doesn't move much. I have used it without the lip liner and it didn't bleed. It also survived drinking and eating. If I was careful it could last for a couple of hours. It is currently on offer for 5,90€, but normally it costs 11€.

Avon True Colour Glimmerstick Diamonds Eyeliner in Golden Diamond
The packaging is thin and sleek, you can see the shade of the eyeliner on the end of it. This is a perfect eyeliner for the inner corners of your eyes. It is a golden shimmery shade. I think it would be perfect for the festive season in December. It looks good in the inner corners of my eyes, I do have small eyes, so this opens them up a bit. I also tried it on the waterline, but it doesn't really show up. It has a soft formula and it's very thin, so it's easy to apply it precisely. On me, it didn't last long, but I would say that's my fault because I touch my face/eyes a lot. Currently on offer for 3,30€, normally the price is 6€.

Avon True Nutra Effects Miracle Glow Lightweight Cleansing Oil
The packaging is simple, but elegant. I love the facial oil from the same Nutra Effect line and this cleansing oil smells just like it. It is a lightweight oil and in touch with water, it turns into a milky consistency. I like it for removing makeup, it removes well everything, including lipstick and eye makeup. It does blur my vision, but not for long and it does sting my eyes so I won't be using it for my eyes. It washes well and it doesn't leave a film on my skin. Comparing to the Balea's Reinigungs Ől, which I didn't like at all, I love this one, it seems more lightweight, it smells good and my skin likes it. This one normally costs 6€, but now you can get it for 3,70€.
Avon Senses Sunny California Glow Pink Grapefruit & Frangipani Shower Cream LE
First, the bottle is huge, it contains 500ml of product. Again, like I said in my last empties post, I always have troubles with opening this packaging, but maybe I'm just clumsy. On the other side, the packaging is nice, with all the palms and the summery theme. The shower gel itself has such a lovely summer scent, I don't even know how else to describe it, it's just as lovely as any other I owned from the same Senses line, I think this is actually one my favourites. It normally costs 4€, but currently, you can get it for 2,20€.
I haven't been wearing the lipstick and the eyeliner much lately, just because I don't wear so much makeup now in the summertime and I'm not a fan of red lipsticks. But I have been enjoying using the shower gel. My favourite out of these four products is definitely the cleansing gel, I love using it, even though I'm not big on oil makeup removers for my face makeup.
Thank you for reading!

Yes I did, I especially like the bronzing stick :)
IzbrišiMeni je tudi eyeliner najbolj všeč za notranje kotičke. Ravno dovolj svetel in barvit :). Olje je tudi mene navdušila in imam doma že drugo stekleničko. Mi je všeč, da je lažje od Baleinega, kot si tudi sama omenila. :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiTočno tako, res je takšna lepa zlata barva, ampak vseeno ne preveč barvita :D
IzbrišiOooh sminka je pa zelo pigmentirana, sem pricakovala da bo bolj kot balzam. Nad tus gelom sem pa jaz zelo navdusena, super citrusni vonj <3 Se pa ravno tako mucim z odpiranjem pokrovcka :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiJe kar fajn ja, sploh če primerjaš s tistimi drugimi Luxe šminkami, ki so pa res kot balzami :) Super diši ja, ga zelo rada uporabljam. Sem mislila, da sem edina tako nerodna s temi pokrovčki haha :D
