Hey, girl!
If you follow me you know how much I love Avon products. I did a bit of an Avon haul a few weeks ago and I couldn’t wait to tell you all about my new items! So let’s get into it!
Glimmerkiss Liquid Lipstick - $14 CAD
This liquid lipstick line by Avon comes in four shades and… I got them all! You just can’t go wrong with these liquid lipsticks. They last long and the colours are gorgeous. My favourite feature is how buildable the lipstick is. I love that I can put on just a little in the morning for a work appropriate look, but also build the colour on later in the day when I go out. I love a versatility and Glimmerkiss transitions so well from a day-to-night look. Let’s look at each colour:
Ruby
You can never go wrong with red. A bold lip is a statement every woman needs in her toolbox. I’ve been loving this colour - this red pop with a little shimmer is hot!
Sand Opal
While the colour looks subtle, the shimmer is not! This is the perfect choice if you wear bold eye makeup. This shade goes well with cooler tones, so if you have a lot of blue clothing in your wardrobe you will love how well Sand Opal compliments you.
Amethyst
Purple lipstick is so fun and perfect for summer. The trick to rocking these lips is all in your skin tone. If you have a warm skin tone, wear a warmer purple that leans to the red side. If you have a cool skin tone, wear a cooler purple that leans to the blue side. This Amethyst shade by glimmer kiss works perfect with my warm toned skin.
Violet Sapphire
Pink lips are one of the hottest makeup trends of 2020 according to Cosmopolitan. The great thing about this trend is it looks good on everyone! The trick is to go for a striking pink shade with blue undertones. Since this lipstick is so buildable, you don’t have to wear it bold all of the time. Hold back on the application if you’re feeling like a subtle pink is more your style that day.
Avon’s Peony Rose Perfume - $35 CAD
One of my favourite summer flowers is the peony. They are so beautiful and delicate and their scent is just gorgeous. When I saw Avon’s Peony Rose perfume I knew I had to have it for summer! The scent is a mix of pink currant, dewy peony, and sheer musk. It’s sweet and simply lovely.
I also picked up some new Avon face products! I wanted to try the Cashmere Complexion foundation and concealer together with the VDL Satin Veil Primer to see the whole look.
VDL Satin Veil Primer - $40 CAD
This primer blurs out any imperfections in my skin while giving me that gorgeous luminous look. It leaves me looking satiny smooth while reducing shine. I love how dewy it makes my skin. I’ve been loving the way this primer looks in the spring sun!
Cashmere Complexion Longwear Foundation - $32 CAD
My favourite thing about this foundation is the blur effect it gives my pores. It minimizes my fine lines and keeps my skin looking smooth. It has fabulous coverage without feeling heavy. Plus, this matte foundation is super comfortable to wear all day.
Cashmere Complexion Longwear Concealer - $22 CAD
Another great 24-hour product by Avon. This concealer is so pigmented and covers any imperfections very nicely. It packs a lot of coverage but still feels lightweight. This concealer has a great soft-focus finish that brightens the areas that need it. It pairs perfectly with the foundation to create a beautiful, even base for the rest of your makeup.
Avon Magix Dust Finishing Powder
This powder is so lightweight, it gave me a sweet, subtle glow and a soft blur to my skin. The powder gives a nice matte finish to your skin and feels so silky smooth. I love Avon products and this finishing powder really impressed me!
Avon Live Out Loud Hair Fragrance
This spray is really fun! It is a scented spray to give your hair a little oomph when you need it. I love the scent! It’s a strawberry vanilla mimosa fragrance - sooo good! Just a little spritz and you can enjoy the scent all day. It’s a new way to wear a perfume and I am loving just how fun it is!
Avon Rouge Powder Matte Lipstick
You know how much a love a lip colour! I’ve bee loving the shades Beige, Berry, and Rose. The formula is super smooth and glides right on effortlessly. I love the pop of colour these lipsticks give!
This lip cube is just gorgeous to look at! I love the soft pink marble and the unique square shape. The sharp edges are not only fun, but very useful for applying the product precisely. I really liked that about this lip cube. It gives your lips a subtle rosy colour and a ton of moisture! I’d definitely recommend this for anyone looking for a more natural, soft look.
Another VDL lip moisturizer! This tin bar gives you some subtle colour while moisturizing your lips. The colour is very sweet and natural I love it for my more subtle makeup looks. Plus, it really delivers on the moisture! I’ve been loving this tint bar.
Anew Vitamin C Brightening Eye Cream
I’ve been using this eye cream in the mornings and have really enjoyed it! I definitely can see a difference with how much brighter my under eye area is. You can use it with any skin care routine which I love. I just dab a little on in the morning and I look a little brighter instantly. This is a must have for those early morning wake ups!
Anew Vitamin C Illuminating Priming Moisturizer
Another great illuminating primer! This is a nice light moisturizer that helps buff out those little skin imperfections. It gives my skin a nice subtle glow which I really love to see. Plus, a nice boost on the days I don’t feel like wearing makeup, too. I definitely recommend this primer if you want a product that works on both your glam days and your kicking around the house days!
Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus Picaridin Pump Spray
My family has been spending a ton of time in the backyard lately and since we are in Winnipeg the mosquitoes get a little out of control. I’ve been using this Skin So Soft bug repellent for my family and it works so well! You just mist the product on your skin and it did a great job of keeping the bugs away. I love that it smells like a beauty product, not a chemical. I feel so safe using this on my kids and I love that it works!
Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus Picaridin Towelettes
I love that the repellent comes in a towelette! Seriously, this is so convenient. The towelette is a good size and covers a good area of your skin. I just threw one in my purse and it is there - so convenient! I'd definitely recommend these towelettes.
That was my Avon beauty haul! I hope you enjoyed and learned a little something.
