As much as I have found the best lipstick for me, I still won’t stop experimenting and trying out new ones that will come my way. I got two shades of Avon Smooth Minerals Lipstick a couple of days ago and tried it on while I was at Sofitel Philippine Plaza to welcome 2011.
The packaging looks like the Avon Mega Impact Lipsticks the only difference was the Mega Impact Lipstick have it in silver this one have it in bronze.
The shades I got are one from the pink side M01 Pink Quartz (left) and from the brown side M502 Rosy Brown (right)
Swatches
This was taken with a flash Pink Quartz on the left and Rosy Brown on the right
This one was taken without a flash on natural lighting
On my lips
This is how Avon Smooth Minerals Lipstick Pink Quartz shade looks like on my lips
and this is how the Rosy Brown shade looks like
What I think about it?
- I love how easily it glides on the lips and how non-drying it is.
- I also like the shimmer effect it gives on the lips that you don’t need to put on lip gloss to make it shine.
- The color is not so vivid that you need to apply it more than three times to make the color appear.
- Smudges off easily.
Do I recommend Avon Smooth Minerals Lipstick?
If you want something to use when you go to the market or buy grocery then you can consider using this one other wise there are other better lipstick out there and this one is something not to rave about.
How about you, what’s your favorite lipstick?
Stay gorgeous everyone!
