In my last post, I was talking about the new Avon mineral lipsticks. It's called Avon Smooth Mineral Lipstick. I bought them in the shades Crystal Corail (left) and Apricot Glow (right).

Here are the swatches:Apricot Glow

Crystal Corail

This lipstick is enriched with a mega moisturizing complex with shea butter & revitalizing oils. It is said to keep lips smooth naturally. My lips were not really smoother after applying this product, but it does glides on nicely.

What I didn't really like about this product is that it contains a little too much shimmers. I was looking for a natural look, so I thought a mineral lipstick would be perfect for that... but not this one. It has natural looking shades, but the shimmers bug me a little.

Avon recently revamped the packaging of most of their products, and they definately look nicer. The casing of this lipstick is very nice & kind of classy.

For now, they don't offer a huge selection of colours (there is 10 shades available), but this product is brand new, so there might be more to come.

Product: ★★★

Packaging: ★★★★

Quality: ★★★

Overall: ★★★

Also, I'd like to get my hands on those cuties:
