Hey Beauties!
I have a thing for Avon lipsticks. I think they are the stars of Avon products. They often come out with new ranges and I like most of them. I already said I'm in love with their Ultra Indulgence lipsticks. When I saw that they came out with new 3D plumping lipsticks, I ordered samples of some of the shades. Little did I know, that Avon would surprise me with the full sized lipsticks. They were so nice and sent me all the shades. I was over the moon, since I already had a wishlist of some of the shades, that I tried in tester forms. Thank you Avon :).
I saw that these are called Avon Beyond Color Lipsticks in other countries. The shades seem to have the same names.

Lipsticks currently cost 4.90€ a piece (regular price 6€) and you'll get 7 ml of it.
It has a classy silver packaging. It's matte with metallic sheen and it has shiny ring around where it says Avon on it. The packaging is very well made.
It also has a transparent top on the lid, where you can see the shade of lipstick. Useful for storage. Each lipstick also has a sticker on the bottom with the name of the lipstick shade in a matching sticker shade.
The lipsticks are highly pigmented (depends a little from one shade to another), very creamy and have a satin finish. They're not as shiny as Ultra Color Indulgence, but they also can't be called matte. They have a bit of shine, but a lot of color.
Right after application I get a bit of tingling sensation. I think this is due to the collagen, which is in the formula. It says that the collagen in it should increase micro circulation in the lips and make them fuller. The difference is minimal in my opinion. It's just the tingling sensation, that I really notice.
The lipsticks also contain retinol, which fills lip lines for a more youthful look (like it does in the skin care). It also contains caffeine, pomegranate oil and jojoba oil, which improve elasticity and moisturize the lips. The lipstick also has an SPF of 15.
Indeed the formula sits really nicely on the lips. The lipstick doesn't settles into lines and I didn't experience any clinging to dry patches. It feels comfortable and moisturizing, but not too slippery, like most moisturizing lip formulas tend to feel. It wears off evenly. Of course it starts go off first from the inner part of the lips. They are pretty long lasting due to the high pigmentation and matter creamy formula.
The whole range has 15 shades.
Now let's see how the shades look like up close. I have to apologize first. I already had this post ready, since I swatched my testers and when I got all the other shades I also swatched these. Unfortunately the color of my new photos is a bit of a different color. I'm sure you'll still get the idea of the lipstick shade.
In The Buff
Peach brown nude shade. It's actually a nice warm my lips but better shade. It has good pigmentation.
Stolen Kisses
Mix of pink and peach nude, but it's definitely more pink. Fairly light shade it can also be my lips but better shade. It has good pigmentation.
Cantaloupe
Probably one of my favorite shades. Light orange with brown undertone. I find it interesting, because it's not a typical orange, but has that dirty brown undertone. It has good pigmentation.
Very bright pink shade. It's such an interesting take on pink. Because it's really bright and fairly light and it's a bit more sheer. It's not as pigmented as others.
Pucker Up
Bright cool toned pink. One of those classic pink shades. It has a good pigmentation.
Uptown Pink
Dirty medium pink. It has a bit of brown undertone to it. It also has good pigmentation.
Hot Pants
Typical dark fuchsia pink shade. It has good pigmentation.
True blue toned red. It's a classic. It has good pigmentation.
Very interesting grey based light mauve shade. This one is a bit sheerer and not as pigmented as other shades.
Bitten
Bright fuchsia purple. It's cool toned and of the most unique shades. For some reason I've really started to like purple lipsticks. This one also has good pigmentation.
Berry purple shade with cool undertone. It's perfect fall shade. It's a bit less pigmented.
One of those aubergine shades, a mix of dark red and violet. It's a bit less pigmented.
Divine Wine
Deep mauve. It looks like a mix of dirty pink and brown. This one is slightly less pigmented.
Twig
Medium brown with warm undertone. It actually seems a bit like a mauve brown. It has good pigmentation.
Dark chocolate brown shade. An amazing shade for medium to dark skin tones. The pigmentation is medium.
And the swatches all together, so that you can get a better idea of how the shades compare to each other. You can click on the photo to see it better.
I think those lipsticks have an amazing pigmentation. Of course the pigmentation varies a little from shade to shade, but in general, the lipsticks are really pigmented. With one swipe you can easily cover the lips.
The creamy formula is a dream and I also like that it feels moisturizing and comfortable on the lips. Those lipsticks remind me very much of their Ultra Color Indulgence, but seem like a more pigmented version of those. The range of shades is big and I'm sure you'll find a shade for you.
My favorite and most unique shades are Twig, Cantaloupe, Mad For Mauve, Bitten and Berry Cute. Twig and Berry Cute are perfect fall shades. Cantaloupe is my kind of shade, but has an interesting dirty brown undertone. Mad For Mauve is such a unique shade. It was the first shade that really popped out to me. Not my usual color, but so unique. Same goes for Bitter, which is just crazy out there bright.
I highly recommend you to try some of these, if you're looking for good pigmented lipsticks with slightly matte, yet very comfortable moisturizing formula. The range offers some really unique shades. What are your favorite shades?
Obožujem Avon šminke. Po mojem mnenju so to glavne zvezde Avonovih izdelkov. Avon pogosto predstavi nove linije šmink in večina formul mi je zelo všeč. Večkrat sem že omenila, da obožujem Ultra Color Indulgence šminke. Ko sem videla, da imajo v katalogu nova 3D rdečila za polne ustnice, sem naročila testerje nekaterih odtenkov. Pred tem nisem vedela, da me bo Avon presenetil z kar celo linijo šmink. Bila sem presrečna, saj sem že med testiranjem testerjev naredila seznam želja za nekatere odtenke. Hvala Avon :).
Rdečila trenutno stanejo 4.90€ (redna cena 6€) in vsaka vsebuje 7 ml izdelka.
Ima klasično srebrno embalažo, ki je mat s kovinskim sijajem. Na sredini je tudi sijoč srebrn obroč z napisom Avon. Embalaža je zelo dobro narejena.
Na vrhu je prozorna plastika, ki omogoča ogled odtenka. Zelo uporabna embalaža. Vsaka šminka ima na dnu nalepko z imenom šminke. Tudi barva nalepke je v barvi odtenka šminke.
Šminke so zelo pigmentirane (odvisno od posameznega odtenka), zelo kremne in imajo satenast finiš. Niso tako sijoče kot Ultra Color Indulgence, ampak prav tako niso mat. Imajo malo sijaja, ampak veliko barve.
Takoj po nanosu na ustnicah čutim rahlo ščemenje. To je zaradi kolagena, ki je v sestavi. Piše, da naj bi kolagen v šminki povečal mikrocirkulacijo v ustnicah za bolj polno obliko. Razlika je minimalna po mojem mnenju.
Šminke vsebujejo tudi retinol, ki zapolni linije ustnic za mladostno gladek videt (kot pri izdelkih za nego obraza). Vsebujejo še kofein, olje granatnega jabolka in jojobino olje, ki izboljšajo elastičnost in vlažnost ustnic.
Šminke dajejo ustnicam dober občutek. Šminka se ne useda v gubice in sama nisem opazila, da bi se oprijemala suhih predelov na ustnicah. Na ustnicah delujejo udobno in vlažilno, ampak ne preveč drseče, kot daje občutek večina vlažilnih šmink. Enakomerno izginejo iz ustnic. Seveda se najprej opazi, da se odstranjujejo od notranjega roba ustnic. So precej dolgo obstojne, zaradi visoke pigmentiranosti in rahlo mat kremne formule.
Celotna linija vsebuje 15 odtenkov.
Poglejmo kako odtenki izgledajo bolj od blizu. Najprej se moram opravičiti. To objavo sem napisala že prej, ko sem testirala testerje. Kasneje sem dobila še ostale odtenke in jih fotografirala kasneje. Zaradi tega je odtenek mojega obraza različen na novih fotografijah. Vseeno verjamem, da boste dobili idejo o tem kako izgledajo odtenki šmink na obrazu.
In The Buff
Breskvasto rjav nude odtenek. Je toplega podtona. Moje ustnice ampak boljše odtenek. Je dobro pigmentiran.

Stolen Kisses
Mešanica roza in breskavstega odtenka, ampak vsekakor bolj roza. Dokaj svetel odtenek, ki je lahko prav tako moje ustnice ampak boljše odtenek. Je dobro pigmentiran.

Cantaloupe
Verjetno moj najljubši odtenek. Svetlo oranžen odtenek z rjavim podtonom. Zdi se mi zanimiv, ker ni tipičen oražen odtenek, ampak ima tak umazan podton, Je dobro pigmentiran.

Heat Wave
Zelo živ roza odtenek. Zanimiv roza odtenek, ker je zelo živ, ampak vseeno dokaj svetel in rahlo bolj prozoren. Ni tako pigmentiran kot ostali odtenki.
Pucker Up
Živ roza odtenek s hladnim podtonom. Eden izmed klasičnih roza odtenkov. Je dobro pigmentiran.
Uptown Pink
Umazan srednje roza odtenek. Ima rahlo rjavkast podton. Je dobro pigmentiran.
Hot Pants
Tipično temen fuksija roza odtenek. Je dobro pigmentiran.
Power Trip
Pravi klasično rdeč odtenek z modrim podtonom. Je dobro pigmentiran
Mad For Mauve
Zelo zanimiv odtenek. Je svetlo umazano vijoličen odtenek s sivim podtonom. Ta je rahlo bolj prozoren in ni tako pigmentiran kot ostali odtenki.
Bitten
Živ fuksija vijoličen odtenek. Ima hladen podton in je en najbolj unikatnih odtenkov. Iz nekega razloga so mi zadnje čase zelo všeč vijolični odtenki. Tudi ta je dobro pigmentiran.
Berry Cute
Jagodičasto vijoličen odtenek s hladnim podtonom. Perfekten odtenek za jesen. Je prav tako bolj prozoren in ni tako pigmentiran kot ostali odtenki.
Revenge
En izmed unikatnih odtenkov, ki izgledajo kot mešanica temno rdeče in vijolične. Precej temen odtenek in je dobro pigmentiran.
Divine Wine
Temno umazano vijoličen odtenek. Izgleda kot mešanica umazane roza in rjave. Tudi ta je rahlo manj pigmentiran.
Twig
Srednje rjav odtenek s toplim podtonom. Deluje skoraj kot umazano vijolično rjav odtenek. Je dobro pigmentiran.
Truffle
Temno čokoladno rjav odtenek. Čudovit odtenek za tiste s srednjim in temnim tenom kože. Je rahlo slabše pigmentiran.
Te šminke imajo zavidljivo pigmentiranost. Seveda se ta rahlo razlikuje od odtenka do odtenka, ampak v osnovi so vse izjemno pigmentirane. Z enim potegom lahko z lahkoto prekrijete ustnice.
Kremna formula je sanja in všeč mi je vlažilen in udoben občutek na ustnicah. Te šminke me rahlo spominjajo na Ultra Color Indulgence šminke, ampak bolj pigmentirana verzija le teh. Nabor odtenkov je velik in prepričana sem, da se bo našel odtenek za vsakega.
Moji najljubši odtenki so Twig, Cantaloupe, Mad For Mauve, Bitten in Berry Cute. Twig in Berry Cute sta perfektna odtenka za jesen. Cantaloupe je čisto moj odtenek. Zanimiv je zaradi umazanega rjavega podtona. Mad For Mauve je tako unikaten odtenek. Je en izmed odtenkov, ki mi je takoj padel v oči, čeprav ni ravno tipično po mojem okusu. Enako velja za Bitten, ki je noro živ odtenek.
Vsekakor priporočam, da preizkusita te šminke,če iščete dobro pgimentirane šminke z rahlo mat in zelo udobno nosljivo formulo. Linija ponuja nekaj zelo uniaktnih odtenkov. Kateri odtenki pa so vam najljubši?
