I've been dancing around Avon's Luxe collection for quite a while now. I'm not that attracted to the sophisticated gold packaging so I was more curious about the quality of the products. The first thing I purchased and repurchased from this collection was the Luxe Volume Extravagance mascara. For me, it's the best mascara from Avon in general. After that, my interest grew stronger and when the Luxe Couture Creme lipstick collection went on sale for 350 din (the lowest price since its launch), right away I bought two: Designer Red and Nude Slip - the nude I needed and the other I couldn't resist.
Both come in a black boxes with gold lettering while the lipstick tubes are made of plastic with pure gold coating. The collection has 10 standard shades and 4 limited edition shades that come in a slightly different tube with black leopard print. All of the shades have a pearly satin finish that visually plumps the lips. This lipstick glides on smoothly giving full coverage with just one swipe. It's so light that you cannot feel it on your lips. This lipstick gives you soft and moisturized lips with perfect color pigmentation. A definite must have for people with dry lips.
Designer Red falls under the category of orange-red shades that mostly suit medium to dark complexions. I've managed to pull it off with a winged nude eye and flawless skin. This vibrant hue tends to bleed because of its hydrating and creamy formula so make sure to apply lip liner before hand. Remove excess with a paper towel to avoid getting lipstick on your teeth.
Have you tried anything from the Luxe collection that you can recommend?
