I usually use lip gloss so I was interested in trying a lipstick. It was a great product because it just glided on my lips and felt very much like a gloss. The colour vas quite sheer and it had a nice sheen to it. The application was easy from the twist-up tube and a nice change from the usual glosses I have. The texture of the lipstick was also very pleasant in that it was creamy and very moisturising and the colour lasted on my lips a lot longer than any of my glosses. At this price I will be getting myself a few more colours from the range.

The packaging looks fun and modern, as opposed to sleek/classy. It comes in a typical twist-up tube. Application is effortless. There was no dragging/tugging on my lips to get the colour to spread evenly. It is creamy and felt moisturising on (and even after I took it off). I was able to apply straight from the tube for an even application.

One swipe provides sheer colour and it can be built up to achieve a more dramatic/darker effect. The colour I received was 'Sheer Mauve' which is a cool-toned berry mauve. It is almost a darker version of my lip colour.

Texture: Easy to apply, creamy and quite slick. Almost feel like a lip balm. It gives a somewhat glossy appearance. Smell: There is a faint generic fruity smell, which I don't find offensive. I have tried other famous brands in the past which smelt a lot worse. The lipstick itself does not have any taste/flavour.
Pigmentation: Quite good. Sheer on first application with good colour payoff when built up. I am more of a lip-gloss girl at heart, but I would not hesitate to buy it for my mother who is a lipstick-user.

The packaging wasn't really remarkable. Not too flashy, but more than practical. The lipstick went on very smoothly. It felt deliciously soft and silky on my lips - much better than I'd expected from an Avon lipstick. I had the magenta dream colour which I found to be a very apt name. The colour is a true intense fuchsia/magenta.

It would be great for parties but not really appropriate for work. The texture was smooth and soft, the smell was quite appealing and subtle. I would probably buy it in a more versatile colour. The colour lasted well and didn't get dry or flaky on my lips. I'd give this 4 stars. I thought it has great benefits - the SPF and the texture on the lips is heavenly - especially for the price! I'm sure if I found a more suitable shade I'd wear it every day!

This lipstick slides on very easily but I found I had to put a few coats of it on. The colour is very shimmery and would probably suit nightwear. The texture is very smooth but the smell is not very pleasant to me.

This lipstick did not work for me. By the end of the day my lips had actually become dryer. The smell is not bad which was good but I would not buy it for myself.
