Reviews: lipstick marker from Avon. Favorite cosmetics

Cosmetic means every day attract their increasingly unpredictable advertising and promises of manufacturers of all-unearthly results. The network cosmetics company Avon, which "lures" not only with offers to become a representative and use mega-profitable discounts, but also its products, is no exception. However, it is worthwhile to carefully read the reviews. Lipstick-marker from "Avon" deserves a separate detailed review, as it is quite an innovative product in the cosmetic network field.

A little about the company

The founder of the company is an American David McConnell, who originally sold books. To somehow increase sales and attract the attention of women, he began to invest in ladies' novels small bottles of perfume. Initially, there were only five simple floral scents that pleased the customers. In 1897, the first laboratory was opened, located near New York. Subsequently, in 1929, McConnell gave his company the name Avon (after the name of one of the English rivers). This is how the world-famous brand appeared, which is still popular today. Moreover, Avon cosmetics are distributed through direct sales (network marketing), which almost completely eliminates the presence of counterfeit or counterfeits. And this already speaks for itself. And if elite cosmetics is for some reason not to the liking of buyers, then it is in a specific product, and not that it could have been faked.

Production

Actually, for today Avon cosmetics is not only perfumery and decorative means for applying make-up. This is also a means for skin care, hair, cream, gels, designed to get rid of cellulite and to tighten the skin. And not only this! A whole line of men's remedies has been developed, there are shower gels. In addition, the Avon brand sells bags, purses, scarves, leggings, ponchos, dresses and other wardrobe items and accessories. Not to mention a sufficiently high-quality jewelry, which does not lose color even when in the water, than "suffer" many budget firms. However, most of the proposals in the catalogs are dedicated to female decorative cosmetics. In particular, lipsticks, lip gloss and other make-up remedies. Elite cosmetics from "Avon" is really prestigious, because it has very high quality, the price is not as overstated as in retail stores.

Promotions and discounts

The company has made it a rule to make pleasant discounts for different categories of goods in one or another catalog. And this significantly increases the interest of customers who can afford to buy their favorite product at a lower price. Lipstick marker "Watercolor" at the start of sales cost about two hundred rubles. And in the directory for representatives of "Focus on business" and even less! It could be bought at a special price - about 150 rubles for one color. Unfortunately, not everyone could try the novelty, since the demand was very high. So what are they - reviews? The lipstick-marker from "Avon" turned out to be a very controversial "trick".

Generalized opinions of customers

But they are not the most positive. Buyers are very willing to leave reviews on numerous information resources of the relevant subject. Lipstick-marker from "Avon", according to the majority, is not the most successful remedy for lips. The arguments are varied. There are those who lipstick, reviews of which will be detailed below, fell in love. But in general, girls have claims to this product. Also it is necessary to understand, with what it is connected.

Gamma

At "Avon" lipstick-marker of color has rather limited. There are only seven of them, but in general they satisfy women, and very different. Tones range from daring and bright to modest and "domestic". So, the color scale is represented by such names:

• "Fuchsia".
• "Strawberry".
• "Coral".
• "Flamingo".
• "Raspberries".
• "Freesia".
• "Nut".

Do not forget that this is not just lipstick, the reviews of which are the subject of our conversation, but also a marker. So, by default, stamina must be first-class. But what do the girls themselves say about this, who have already tried out all the shades of the novelty?

"Strawberry"

This tone is suitable for those who prefer red saturated colors. Matt, it should be noted. Lipstick-marker "Avon" "Strawberry", according to experts, became the most popular in its category. Even those who prefer more reserved shades, gave their preference to this tone. And what did not the girls like? First of all, that lipstick dries the skin of the lips. Especially strongly disappointed are those who by nature already have dry lips that require soft care. Lipstick simply "stuffed" into the cracks on the skin, forming ugly strips. Bright red color. The second thing that did not appeal to the customers was the smell of alcohol, which is the second in the composition. What the manufacturer kindly writes in small letters on the package. In general, the whole composition is similar to the one for a plain writing pen.

"Raspberries"

This super-bright tone will appeal to brunettes, who need to emphasize their brightness and expressiveness. But blondes should still refrain from such a rich shade. Actually, the disadvantages of the shade of "Malina" are exactly the same as those of "Strawberries". Lipstick-marker dries lips and smells of alcohol base. Not to mention the fact that her taste is sour and unpleasant. Just like with felt-tip pens in childhood. Yeah, apparently, not for nothing in the catalog, this means and called - "felt pen for lips" ...

"Flamingo"

It would seem that it should be a pleasant pink shade, like the bird of the same name. But no! Not everything is as simple as the customers think. Firstly, the "Avon" lipstick-marker "Flamingo" is not pink, but rather pale red. Of course, if you apply "Watercolor" in several layers, then the tone will be more intense. Secondly, many girls do not recommend doing this. And for that there are reasons: to wash off lipstick then it will be simply unreal.

The main disadvantages of all tones

The most important drawback is indelibility. This is what all the reviews say. The lipstick-marker from "Avon" is so absorbed into the skin that it is very difficult to wash it off even with the help of means for removing water-resistant cosmetics . In addition, the manufacturer slightly disingenuous, saying that the cosmetics quickly dries and leaves no traces. Some girls noted that the above tones dried for a long time, and the first 15-20 minutes left traces on the skin, glasses, cigarette filters and so on. And it is very difficult to wash these traces, especially from the skin. And, of course, the second notable drawback is the dryness of the lips. It is not recommended to apply a lipstick-marker to those who have cracks or wounds. The remedy will lie unevenly, clogged in these very cracks, which will make the makeup very very ugly.

Main advantages

Despite such an abundance of negative reviews, the "Watercolor" marker from Avon is not hopeless. He also has his own merits. And they could not be ignored by the customers, making their own comments. The lipstick-marker from "Avon" really, as the manufacturer assured, well emphasizes the lip contour, does not roll down, does not flow beyond its limits, does not lose its dullness for a long time. In this case, no water procedures, no snacks, no kisses are not terrible. It's a paradox, is not it? Minus smoothly flows into a plus. The only thing that can be noted - in the evening the shade may slightly turn pale, but the lipstick will not smear and will not flow, it will not fade at all. Perhaps, only slightly, on a semitone, it becomes softer. In addition, it is very easy to apply a lipstick marker. At the same time, the tone intensity can be adjusted independently. Thus, the lower part of the side edge of the tip of the marker is brighter, and the upper part is slightly paler. And if you twist the bottom of the bottle itself, the color will become more intense. In addition, in closed form (the cap sits very tightly), the marker does not dry and does not lose its properties for a long time.

Is it worth it to buy?

Perhaps, this question disturbs many lovers of novelties from Avon. Definitely, you can try a lipstick-marker. Firstly, during the actions it is not too expensive (about two hundred, or even less, rubles). Secondly, the remedy is really persistent and will withstand any daytime trials, while tinting the sponges during the day will not have to. As well as worry about how well it looks makeup after a snack. Thirdly, if you do not like the effect of a lipstick marker, then you can always use it as a lip pencil. A sharp and moist tip allows you to draw a contour clearly. At the same time, it will not be erased, smeared or rolled away. Yes, try this new product from the "Avon" still worth it.

A few tricks

Some girls in their responses shared tips on how to avoid dry lips when using a lipstick-marker "Watercolor", so much so that its main property - stamina is not affected. After applying the product, you need to wait ten minutes, and then (when the lipstick is completely dry and will not leave any traces on the napkin), apply over soft balsam or lip gloss (only not sticky). For example, for this purpose shine, visually increasing the volume of the lips, from Avon. It is possible and transparent shade. This is enough to make long-lasting and good make-up, which is enough for a full-time working day. Or on a date with all the consequences. The tone of brilliance can be chosen any, everything depends on the desire and needs. Well, or ideas.
