...A chartreuse stick that claims to neutralize redness. It would be great if it was as fabulous as it sounds. When I was in high-school this was a product that I swore by for covering my intensly hormone-induced breakouts, so when I recently went through a flare up I picked up another tube expecting the same results. But what I found was a product that covered redness, yes, but left an odd greenish-grey smear or splotch in its wake; no matter how much you blended it in. So I guess the choice is really up to the consumer. Which is worse in your opinion? An ugly, inflamed-looking redness? Or an odd, slightly sickly-looking greenish grey?

The smell of this perfume is odd to me. It kind of churns my stomach and gives me a headache. It is rather strong. I would say if you are sensitive to fragrances stay away from this one. The bottle is SUPER cute though~

This perfume was much too strong for me. Not at all pleasing to the olfactory senses! It gave me a bad headache! This is a product to definitley stay away from if you are even the slightest bit sensitives to strong fragrances.

This mascara really smeared and smudged alot because it felt like it never eally dried completely. I also felt like the product was difficult to distribute evenly on my lashes. I didn't like that it was in a tube either. Can you imagine what would happen if you accidentally sat on it or something?? Yeesh!!

All the colors were too dark for my fair skin, and they're too orange! I find it very puzzling my alot of makeup companies make face products with an orange-ish hue. I don't think I have ever seen anyone with orange skin! Anyway, after I put this stuff on, my face looked really chalky and "dusty". I just didn't like the way it felt on my skin!

I bought for its original purpose, and it works great for that. A great lip liner for any kind of lipstick or gloss to keep it from migrating. Colored lipliner can look so severe I have not used it since junior high, back when I had less discerning tastes! But the other day I discovered that it works great as a lip primer too! I have a lipstick that I just love but it kind accentuates the vertical lines on my lips. I applied it to my entire upper and lower lip and it helped fill in the lines and made my lipstick look smoother and last longer! Give it a try! I also tried it on my eyebrows to keep their shape and it worked for that too. It's apparently an all-around multi-tasker! The only downside is that it smells pretty waxy

The color of teeny bikini is fabulous! Very sheer, light and natural flush, a great alternative to sometimes chalky looking blush! You have to be careful when touching your face and stuff though, because it has a tendacny to smear or get wiped off. Doesn't look very good on the lips, . It tried it and it felt too thick and heavy. The color looked flat too. Stick to the cheeks that's where this stuff shines! Literally actually, when you put it on it looks a little glossy. I would recommend a light dusting of face powder afterwards to tone it down.

Very powerful stuff. The smell reminds me of citrus scented disinfectant. Smelling like a sterlized hospital:*not* sexy!

I'm not usually a fan of Avon liptick. The colors shown in the catalog are rarely accurate and they never seem to look good on me, whatever they are. But this one is different. I bought it in the limited edition Charmed Rose which is a great cool-toned rusty rose color. I've found that the shimmery shades for this lipstick aren't the creamiest out there because their shimmer is a bit coarser than others, but it's not so bad that it's gritty or anything. The cosistency is still very nice. Also, I would recommend applying a lip primer or a lip balm beforehand because this lipstick has a tendancy to accentuate the vertical lines on my lips.

The Classics work just as well as the Premium or Advanced,the only difference is that they take a little longer for the full effect (about 2-3 shades whiter!) and they are less expensive. I picked up a box at Target the other day for $15.99. They do make my teeth ache ever so slightly, so people who have teeth sensitivty probably should not use this product. Of course, if someone has sensitive teeth, they probably should stay away from whitening treatments anyway. And they whiteness really does last over a year like they say!
