Avon Glazewear Lip Gloss — 

Avon Glazewear Lip Gloss

Many of Avon's products can be hit or miss, these are a definite hit in the wide world of lip gloss. The color selection is quite good, nice choices of pinks, plums, reds, browns and neutrals that look good on just about anyone. One shade range they need to add is peach and colal and the line will be complete, listen up Avon, you're customers are making a request you should heed.

The finish is shiny and glossy but not greasy looking. I find it stays in place and will last on the average through an hour or so before needing to be re-applied.  Tickled Pink is my favorite shade as it's a neutral tone, neither bubble-gum or pepto pink, a good  shade that makes a great base for any color you're looking to tone down or lighten up. I recently purchased Mocha Latte, one of the newer colors, and really like how this brown based shade shows a hint of gold and is not at all muddy in tone.

Glazewear gloss comes in three finishes which include: Shine, a sheer light glossy everyday wear finish. Sparkle, which offers a sheer to medium finish with subtle sparkle and shimmer. And Intense which provides fuller more intense but very wearable coverage, a bit sexier if you will.  

I find these Glazewear glosses give my lips a very comfortable almost cushioned feeling, they stay nicely hydrated and the shine doesn't disappear after a few minutes. It's never sticky and it has a light vanilla-like flavor which I happen to find soothing. The doe-foot applicator lays down just enough color to start off with, then you can build coverage as needed.I find one coat usually does it for me.

There are a lot of glosses on the market and I've tried many but find these to be perfect for my needs.  Avon offers these glosses in 14 wearable shades, a clear diamond sparkle  and a totally clear colorless high-shine with SPF 15.  Regular price per .15 oz tube is $6.00 but, as is the case with many Avon products, these are often on sale for around $3.00.

I love em too, I'm kind of a gloss hoarder lol. But I do use and purchase these on a regular basis :)

I love these. There are only two shades that actually look good against my complexion, but I just keep buying them over and over. :)
