In the article we will try to understand: is this cream so good and worthy of the title of Luxe?

Promises of the manufacturer

The Lux series occupies a central place in almost every Avon catalog. At the price and registration it is impossible not to allocate production in a separate category among other means. Tonal cream in everyday and evening make-up has become almost indispensable beauty that every woman should have. The choice of a suitable cream is perhaps the most difficult stage.

The manufacturer, however, optimistically promises a durable matte coating with the effect of powder, which disguises all the shortcomings and protects against sunlight.

Design and packaging

It looks like a tool, undoubtedly, effectively. Black box in the style of "Avon" with shining golden letters Luxe. Inside, she expects an even more pleasant sight. A solid glass bottle with a tonal means and a golden cap. The first impression, of course, speaks in favor of "Lux". An elegant bottle adjusts to something high-quality and expensive.

Glass is transparent and very dense, which makes the cream rather heavy. Inside it, liquid preparation in an amount of 30 ml. The dispenser hides under the cap. He distributes the cream very neatly. One or two pressures are enough to make up the face. At this stage of consideration "Lux" foundation cream from "Avon" reviews are good: everyone likes the beautiful design and convenient structure of the bottle.

What is inside?

Proceed to the next stage: by lightly pressing the dispenser, release a drop of matting agent. Women expect a very light and fluid texture. When applied and feathering on the arm, it hides redness and small skin defects. Depending on the shade, it gives off a pink or yellow sub-ton. Covering ability is quite decent: you can apply a very thin layer and achieve easy matting, or disguise defects more tightly. The cream fulfills the promise of an average coating density.

After drying, there are some more properties of the tonal basis "Lux": the texture is completely clogged in all folds and uneven skin. This is very old and emphasizes the fact of applying some sort of matting agent. And the tonal base should still be invisible. Well conceals the pores and black dots, makes the skin dull, but remains visible on the face in the form of a "mask". In general, if you look from afar - the effect is ideal. Near - too much matting means "Lux". The "Avon" tonal cream reviews after acquaintance with the texture and covering ability gets average. For young, fresh and normal skin, the remedy is certainly ideal. But problem areas and wrinkles to hide without a trace tonalnika not succeed.

Tint Palette

The facial cream "Lux" is available in five different colors. For Avon, as for other budget brands, this is a fairly rich palette. The product can be selected for both light and dark skin. For those who like the "Lux" foundation, it will be easy to choose a shade for the winter, and for the summer - it's darker. The choice is - and this is one of the advantages of the means.

The tonal cream is presented in shades:

• Porcelain (0232 9);
• Natural (0211 3);
• Natural beige (0260 0);
• Light beige (0188 3);
• Warm beige (0225 3).

The first two colors have pink undertones, and the rest are closer to the yellow ones. With the right selection of funds, they fit well on the skin, coinciding with its natural shade. Toned cream "Lux" from "Avon" reviewed the presented palette was good. Not everyone is delighted that light shades are exceptionally pink, but, nevertheless, many such a palette proved to be suitable.

Characteristics of light tones

Porcelain color is good for owners of light skin. It is worth considering that if the cream is purchased for the summer period, the skin will light up a little. Perhaps, it will be more appropriate to choose a tone darker. Before buying, you need to pay attention to the nature of the tone: it is pinkish. If such color completely coincides with a natural shade of a skin to worry there is nothing.

The natural tone of the "Lux" basis is somewhat darker than the porcelain, but it also has a pinkish subtle. Color is good for light-skinned women. Tandem porcelain and natural shades can provide makeup all year round: in the summer - darker, in the winter - the tone is lighter, and looks on the skin naturally a toning cream "Lux" from "Avon". Reviews natural shade got good: the color is quite satisfied with consumers.

Medium and dark colors "Lux"

Different shades of beige color are presented for matting a darker or tanned skin. Natural beige - the average between light and olive skin tone. It is mainly a yellowish sub-tecton. But after drying the base is not oxidized (it does not get dark) and does not yellow. Light beige shade is slightly darker than natural beige. Suitable for bronze or well-tanned skin. Dark beige color - the most saturated with brown pigments tone. It will be a good solution for make-up of swarthy skin.

Approach the selection of the tone of the tonal basis to be responsible. Perhaps, you should first order a sample of the tool to accurately determine the color. An incorrectly chosen tone will ruin the makeup and impression of all the fundamentals in general. Toned cream "Lux" from "Avon" reviews of the color palette was good: most buyers arranged the proposed tone of the means.

Caring tonal cream "Lux"

Somewhat later, the release of the masking tonal "Lux" appeared a new version of it. The formula of the cream has been improved: care components have been added - minerals that give the skin a natural shine. The texture has become denser, but the degree of coverage from this has not changed. The protection filters are slightly lower than in the standard version of "Lux": SPF10 versus the standard SPF20.

A significant difference, perhaps, was the finish coat: in this version it is satin with a natural shimmer of the skin. The shades of the tonal basis remain the same. I must say that the improved formula now allows you to choose for yourself a cream with the desired effect. After all, lovers of radiant satin skin are no less than matte. Caring tonal cream "Lux" "Avon" reviews received slightly better than the usual version.
