Avon lipstick marker

Avon lipstick marker

Persistent lipsticks allow you to maintain a rich color of the lips throughout the day. The lack of adjustment and the confidence that the lipstick will not curl up and not get into small folds, captivates many women. Such a desirable long-term agent can be considered a lipstick marker from Avon.

Features

Avon is a popular manufacturer of decorative and cosmetic care products that has won a good reputation. In Russia, its history began in 1995 and, apparently, is not going to end. Thousands of new developments of lipstick recipes and not only are thoroughly tested in the “Global Center for Research and Development” owned by the brand.

Lipstick marker "Watercolor" can be considered the fruit of a long and well-established work of specialists of all levels, as well as designers who worked on the unique structure of the tool. The appearance of lipstick resembles a marker, so even with slate. The latter is soft and velvety, without any rough edges and lint. The rest of the design does not contradict the motto of restraint from Avon. Black plastic tube with a bright tip - minimalism and a subtle sense of taste, proven for decades.

About the lipstick manufacturer says as an advanced development from Germany. The marker not only covers the lips mattly, but also represents a tint, that is, a resistant coloring pigment. It does not leave the lips for 7 hours, does not imprint on the surfaces and does not spread to the corners.

Today, seven stylish shades of the marker are produced - both nude and very rich tones.

Composition

The composition of lipstick can hardly be called natural, because tint require special resistance. Natural components, unfortunately, are not able to provide adequate resistance. Wanting to get the perfect color, many ladies are content with chemical ingredients.

In the first place is water, the second is propylene glycol. This component with a complex name is a dihydric alcohol, which even in small quantities can cause irritation. If you remember that he stands in the lipstick-marker in second place, then girls with sensitive skin should forget about it. Propylene glycol in the composition of lipstick creates a smooth oily layer on the skin, giving a youthful appearance. However, according to scientists, it displaces useful components from the thin skin of the lips.

Ethyl alcohol settled in third place. His presence here is understandable, because it has volatile properties and allows you to absorb coloring pigments into the skin with maximum speed. For tint it really matters. The downside of its use in formulations is dry skin, because alcohol has the effect of drying, which is very harmful for the delicate epidermis of the lips with some problems and lack of nutrition. At the same time, the manufacturer honestly declares that it is extremely not recommended to use a marker lipstick with cracked skin.

Another chemical component of PEG-30 is an emulsifier that combines various liquids in the composition. Its presence is required. It is worth noting that it consists of glycerol and vegetable fats, which is why it is considered the most gentle and safe for the epidermis. A little further you can see another gentle emulsifier called glyceryl stearate.

The middle of the list is glycerol, known to all and everyone. It covers the skin with a protective film and is an effective means to retain the natural moisture. Glycerin to some extent neutralizes the alcohol composition of the watercolor lipstick-marker.

The chemical skin care does not end there. In the composition one can see polyvinylpyrrolidone, a polymer that has a lifting effect on the epidermis.Next in the lipstick is a list of a few more alcohols. The completion of the list of components are acceptable in cosmetology dyes.

Concluding, one can say with absolute certainty that the marker is able to dry the lips and make them vulnerable. At the same time, the manufacturer does not promise anything to buyers, only durable color. And with this function spirits cope first-class.

A compromise here can be the joint use of a marker with a nourishing balm that neutralizes the negative effects of the application on the lips.

Shelf life

Lipstick marker Avon "Ultra Color" has a maximum shelf life of three years. Antibacterial components in the composition inhibit the reproduction of harmful microorganisms, making use of the product safe for health.

Palette

The colors of the lipstick marker combine calm and bright shades. Single-layer application allows you to create a natural makeup, two or more layers provide a bright accent on the lips.

To calm nude tones include:

  • "Coral" - pink shade with subtle notes of peach. Depending on the natural shade of the coral, it may look like a pure pink tone on bright lips - and coming out of calm when applied to pale pale lips.
  • "Nut" - refers to nude brown tones. It has a subton of milk chocolate.

Bright colors in the palette:

  • Flamingo - saturated red-scarlet tone;
  • "freesia" - pink-plum color;
  • "fuchsia" - cold lilac color;
  • "raspberries" - red tint with a pink subtone;
  • "Strawberry" - scarlet tone, gently turning into burgundy.

It should be said that each of the components of such a diverse palette has a matte surface without using a shimmer. The effect of gloss can be available only with the additional use of gloss or balm for the epidermis of the sensitive area of ​​the face.

How to choose a shade?

Mark Avon It positions itself as a brand that sells only through catalogs. Unfortunately, paper rarely can convey all the subtleties of color, and the natural tone of the lips plays a very important role. It is easy to make a mistake in color here, and therefore it is important to remember a few key selection rules.

So, the first way to determine the tone can be age. Young girls will like light tones (coral, fuchsia or raspberry). Older women will be able to decorate a dark tone - for example, a nut or strawberry. The division here is, of course, very generalized, but it is worth keeping it in mind and combining it with other methods of definition.

Speaking about other methods, it is impossible not to note the universal method for the skin tone. The tone can be cold and warm. In the first case, the saturated cold tones are great, "Watercolors" in their quality are fuchsia and freesia. “Warm” girls will be decorated with burgundy and brown tones - for example, walnut and strawberry. A flamingo with warm orange hues may also suit a warm undertone, but it is extremely difficult to call the color universal.

Using this method is easy and effective, but the correct subton must be correctly determined. To do this, you can turn to a makeup artist, or you can purchase gold and silver foil and conduct an experiment at home. Good lighting and silver foil will make the cold skin tone glow and shine, the golden skin will quickly decorate warm when applied to the face.

Careful attention to hair color is required. Blondes will become even more tender with a pink shade of lipstick, red - with coral and red-red, burning brunettes will fully appreciate the deep wine tones.

Such simple rules will allow you to choose from the catalog the right tone, minimizing the risk of missing in color. I would also like to note the factor of low cost lipstick from Avon, which allows you to order multiple tones and experiment in the search for the perfect color.

How to apply?

Apply a lipstick-marker on clean and dry skin. A marker with a precise applicator allows you to cover the lips without moving beyond their borders.The first stage outlines the lips, the second - cover the remaining space.

After a thorough coating on the lips, it is recommended to apply any nutrient that gives a natural shine. It can be a transparent shine, as well as hygienic lipstick or balm. According to users, the resistance of the tin is increased.

Reviews

Lipstick Marker Reviews "Watercolor" divided into two opposing camps. Ladies celebrate really resistant application. The tool can last more than one hour in an unchanged condition. Pleases users, and especially their men, lack of effect of a print on any surfaces - starting from the partner’s lips and ending with the corner of the cup. In addition, some enjoy "Watercolor"by replacing the outline pencil.

The contours created by the marker deserve special attention. Owners of lipstick compare the effect of the application with a tattoo. Stylus is accurate, it is convenient to push it, and this can not affect the accuracy of coverage.

Opponents of lipstick note dry and unpleasant alcohol odor. Not happy with them and rolling lipstick into the folds. The color palette, according to users, is very distorted in the catalog, and each new color is a surprise - and sometimes not the most pleasant.
