Posted by plue | avon,lipgloss,lips | Tuesday 23 December 2008 3:53 pm

It’s Tuesday!

And yay! It’s getting nearer to Christmas and my long awaited trip back home! Yay!

Erm, well, I am only going back on Friday evening, AFTER work. Yeah, I got no leave. :(

Uh… before I move too far off…

Today’s post is about lipglosses.

Yeap. Lipglosses. :D

Cheap and good lipglosses.

Read on!

Cynthia Rowley for Avon Limited Edition Lipgloss

Here’s how it looks like unboxed :D

Piqued your interest?

I hope it did!

I LOVE this lipgloss!

Really! It’s cheap, smooth, not sticky, and goes on lovely!

Instead of a doe foot sponge applicator, these came in brush tip. Looks kinda like Stila Lip Glaze’s applicator. One little thing to note though, the applicator splays a little, but it doesn’t affect much. What I do this I snip the splayed part off, and it’s good to use!

Plum Orchid is a blue-toned purple, Rose Petal is rosey-tone milky pink, and Peony Pink, a light sweet pink.

Swatches of the 3 colours…

Look at these, it’s really pigmented. One swipe and you see colour, it’s very obvious with the Plum Orchid, since it’s the darkest among three. Peony Pink is the lightest, but yet it shows a good amount of colour.

All 3 colours don’t have any shimmer. It’s not matte, it’s shiny. It gives you lips that’s smooth, moist and plump! And it’s not sticky! :D It doesn’t dry out the lips too! I wore Peony Pink yesterday, and to my delight, even without a balm underneath, it goes on smooth and pretty! Ah! Lovely!

It lasted on me about 2 1/2 hours, I took a few sips of water in between. The shine was gone, but slight colour remains. I am not too fussy about the staying power, because I don’t mind touching up at all! If I don’t, when will I ever finish my 123456789 of lipglosses and lipsticks?

This little gem is only available in Avon outlets, and as the name implies, it’s a Limited Edition item. Go grab it before it’s gone! I want to go buy a few more too!

And they have the lipstick version too! Maybe I should get those too? Avon lipsticks are quite nice generally :D *prays Connie don’t whack me*

Both items are only available till this end of the month!

So hurry! :D

Update: It’s RM10 per item! :D

    LOL at the 123456789 lipgloss and lipsticks. Hear hear! :p

    I’ve seen the Cynthia Rowley lipglosses when I was at Avon with a couple of girlfriends a few years ago. They were selling like hotcakes, but I never did give it a go. Avon had pretty good stuff, and at great prices too.

    LOL! Yeah. I have a LOT of stuff lying around.

    Avon have pretty good stuff, and yeah at good prices too! But too bad the marketing here sucks!

    They aim at only one particular group and that's that! I wish they could improve their catalogue you know… the colour swatches are horrible! always need to guess >_<

    Jojoba: I am not from KL, I'm from Pahang, the east coast actually :) But I travel to KL really often like every weekend since I was a kid, so, KL is quite like home to me, especially the malls! :P

    Certain Avon outlets are badly managed >_< That I know. Sigh. Lucky the one near me isn't!

    the link is http://www.my.avon.com

    newly launched. last time they don’t have it :P

    But since you are around PJ area, head down to Kelana Jaya where the Giant is, and Avon is really close to a 7-11, CIMB and PBB there :)

    It’s not difficult to miss it :)

    [...] very honest right here. So far, all my lippies from Avon has been nothing but fantastic! Be it the Cynthia Rowley ones, or the Ultra Moisturizing ones (oops! haven’t review them!) or the ones I will be reviewing [...]
