Plump lips personify femininity, speak without words about sensuality, tenderness, or, conversely, extravagance. They can send a great variety of signals, depending on the color and shade chosen today. Lipstick "Lady» from Avon allows you to experiment, to be different, but always irresistible.

All innovations, it is worth saying, are carefully checked, because the company has a "Global Research and Development Center", whose area reaches 68,000 square meters. However, first things first. The brand was created by a certain David McConnell back in 1886 under the name "California Perfume Company" in New York. In 1936, the brand acquired its permanent name Avon. Over the decades of work, developments have changed and recipes have been improved, only the high quality of each product has remained unchanged.

So, lipstickLady"is the result of a long and well-established work of specialists who carefully follow the recipe of any of the presented products. Its formula belongs to experts from New York, while the manufacture was entrusted to Poland. By the way, since 2004, the brand's factory has also existed in Russia in the city of Novo-Fominsk.

"Lady" is an updated version of "Ultra Beauty" lipstick. An update and the main difference between lipstick and its prototype is its shape. The tool is available in the form of a stick in a black glossy case made of plastic. "Lady"does not damage its presentable appearance, because the tool extends only to the required distance, preventing the integrity of the stick from being violated. The weight of the product is 1.8 grams.

The texture of the product "Lady" is velvety without shimmer and sparkles interspersed. The shimmery effect on the lips is not provided here, however, natural moisturizing gives a slight gloss on the lips. The consistency of the lipstick is a little dry, but it melts on the lips and is easy to apply in one coat. The saturation of the tone varies from the number of layers.

The palette of shades consists of 10 colors. All the presented tones differ for the most part in some muffledness and calmness. The aroma has a caramel echo, which makes the application of any product extremely pleasant.

So, the basis is jojoba oil, occupying up to 30% of the total volume of the product. This natural product is famous for its rejuvenating, regenerating and anti-inflammatory effect. Jojoba oil gives lips a natural shine. In addition, in lip cosmetics, it provides an easy and even application.

The second component is the chemical betaine. It can be made in two ways.The first natural one is from sugar beet, the second chemical one is from glycine derivatives. And he and the other kind has on the skin:

• moisturizing effect retaining water in the cells of the epidermis;
• softening effect;
• healing of small cracks.

Another must-have lipstick ingredient is dyes from the category Drugs and Cosmetics list. These dyes are allowed in pharmaceuticals and do not harm the body. However, it is still recommended to observe the measure, because most of the lipstick is eaten from the lips during the day. If you want to reduce the incoming amount of dyes in the body, it is enough to use pastel shades of lipstick, the percentage of dye in them is 4-5%, while orange and red shades have up to 20% dye in their composition.

Hydrolyzed wheat proteins are another cutting-edge component in cosmetology. This term refers to wheat germ protein molecules that have been specially processed to make them smaller. The unique amino acid composition tends to penetrate into the deep layers of the epidermis, moisturizing and restoring the microrelief of the epidermis. Wheat proteins in lipstick create an invisible breathable film on the lips that protects the skin from negative factors.

Avon was also one of the first companies to use AHA acids in its formulations. In lipstick, they are also present and are represented by malic acid. It softens and smoothes the epidermis, has a rejuvenating effect.

Lanolin can be observed in the middle of the composition or, in other words, vegetable fat, covering the lips with a dense film.Its healing properties for the skin are well studied, however, in ladies with hypersensitive skin, the ingredient may cause allergies.

Undoubtedly, not without some chemical components, for example, antioxidants. However, it is they who provide a long shelf life of products and prevent oxidation processes that can be harmful to health.

Thanks to the successful combination of not only natural, but also synthetic components in lipstick, the shelf life of the product is as high as possible. Lipstick "Lady" is stored for 3 years.

«Lady» can only be purchased online or through a catalog. Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to convey the exact color and shade, because on the lips it looks purely individual. The tone of each person's lips is unique., and therefore it is almost impossible to guess how the lipstick will look on them. The question of luck in choosing a palette is the place to be.

One of the nude shades is the tone "Cappuccino". Light beige-brown shadeCoffee with milk"complemented with a wet matte finish. The lipstick has a red pigment, which distinguishes it from the classic beige tone.

The next toneStyle icon" or "Totally Twig"is also a muted shade. Its notes are reminiscent of a dark dusty rose with a subtle mauve undertone. At the same time, the lipstick has a somewhat brick shade of a stick, but when applied to the lips, it begins to change from a sharp color to an alluring shade from the catalog. "style icon"refer to everyday and natural lipstick.

«Pink forever” represents an interesting interweaving of adjacent halftones. Lilac here is on the border of lilac-pink, responding to the finish with a light brown note.The lipstick has a pearly sheen and is great for daytime makeup.

Romantic and gentlevintage pink" has a pink-coral tone, leaving in an ash-pink shade. The color is more playful and coquettish compared to the tone "Pink forever". Its use is appropriate for both daytime and evening romantic makeup.

The pink palette is revealed in another shade called "Charismatic pink". Its pale pink tone turns into crimson, responding to the sun's rays with a light mother of pearl.

A pearly bright shade is represented by the tone "pink peach". Its color palette is close to pink against a neon apricot backdrop. The shade is refreshing and gives a dose of coquetry, indispensable for cocktail bows.

Evening looks will become even brighter with a touch of "Sunset". Its tone is a classic orange-red gamut with a slight coral undertone. The lipstick contains a fraction of mother-of-pearl.

One of the most languid tones can be considered "hot flame". Dark red in it turns into plum, diluted with delicate mother-of-pearl. The color in the stick is brighter than the image in the catalog.

Another bright shade - "pink cream"has a rich red-pink color. Mother-of-pearl in tone is barely perceptible and almost inaudible.

«playful red"- a sexy shade for fatal seductresses. Its bright red-crimson tone has the subtlest hints of pink with a blue undertone. The advantage of such a subtone lies in the visual whitening of the teeth and the transformation of a smile into a charming and unforgettable one.

Ten classic colors are diluted in the seasonal product catalogs with three new and fresh tones, namely "caribbean coral», «natural sand" and "pink sunset".The first of the tones is distinguished by a strong mother-of-pearl and a lilac undertone, turning into a languid plum. The sand tone is close to "Cappuccino”, differing in the absence of a red halftone.

Really, the exact shade cannot be predicted. However, you can minimize the risk of disappointment from a different color by understanding which color notes are suitable for certain color types.

When choosing lipstick, makeup artists recommend focusing on:

• age;
• warm or cold skin tone;
• hair color;
• eye color.

With age orientation, everything is as simple as possible. Light and nude shades are suitable for young girls, young women for evening bows - bright colors, ladies of respectable age - deep dark shades. The division, you see, is too generalized, which means that it is not too far-sighted to use it blindly.

Much more accurate will be the definition of lipstick by skin tone. Not everyone knows it, but recognition does not require certain skills. So, for the experiment you need gold and silver foil, good daylight. Foil of two colors is alternately applied to the face. If the skin begins to glow and shine when gold approaches, your tone is warm, silver is cold. Warm girls will suit all warm shades from cappuccino to wine, cold ones - pink, purple, lilac.

When choosing lipstick, you can also focus on hair color. So, in most cases, blondes are suitable for pink tones from delicate to fuchsia.A light brown palette will complement your casual look. Burning brunettes become even brighter when using red-wine lipsticks. Red-haired beauties will enhance their beauty by applying orange, coral and brown shades.

Eye color will be another criterion when choosing. Green-eyed girls will be surprised at the extraordinary organicity when applying terracotta and coral notes. Women with brown eyes may like brown, scarlet and soft pink tones. Sky gray eyes will sparkle with new colors against the contrast of brown and plum lipsticks. Blue-eyed beauties will become even more sensual when applying cherry and beige-pink undertones.

As you can see, there are many ways to determine the shade, but there is still no universal one. Wanting to choose the very shade, it is important to competently study your appearance and combine all the techniques together, choosing the ideal option for yourself. Of course, this option will include thousands of halftones and fashionable lipstick options that can best reveal the femininity and beauty of appearance.

Makeup artists treat lip makeup more responsibly, wanting to see a long-term coating with the effect of juiciness and grooming. To do this, they use several methods:

• before applying lipstick, lips are covered with foundation, after a while blotting it with a napkin. Next, you can apply show jumping with a pencil and only then apply lipstick without trying to rub it with your lips. Next, the lips are also wetted with a napkin and lightly powdered.The final step is to apply another layer of lipstick. Such coloring, as stylists assure, can maintain its presentable appearance throughout the day;
• before lipstick, you need to apply oil or balm to your lips. After absorption, the lips are wetted with a napkin and covered with a rich tone. The effect of juicy lips will not keep you waiting;
• a longer, but justifying time for the procedure method involves cleaning the lips with a tonic or a special tool. Next, we repeat the algorithm of actions of the first variant of persistent staining.

You can apply lipstick with a brush, fingers or directly with a stick. Makeup artists recommend using a brush, because the result of its use is considered more durable, but when applied during the day it is not very convenient. Here, the best option would be to use a stick, since its diameter in Lady lipstick is smaller compared to classic tubes, which means that staining even narrow areas will be comfortable.

Thousands of reviews about lipstick "Lady" testify to its relevance and popularity. Ladies in most cases learn about it out of curiosity, because the cost of the product varies within 150 rubles, which means that experiments become available.

The low cost does not affect the quality in any way. Users note the absence of any negative reactions during use, and some claim a slight caring effect.

Beauticians also talk about the safety of Avon productswho tested well-known brands of decorative cosmetics. Surprisingly, it was Avon that took the lead in safety in the care of the epidermis. Studies have been carried out, which means that you can use the product without unnecessary fears.

However, the tool is used without scientific evidence. Bright colors and light gloss delight customers, allowing you to create contrasting images. Tones in the catalog, it is worth saying, are sometimes very different from reality, which somewhat upsets the girls. Ladies miscalculate with the color scheme, upset and forgetting about the remedy. Others, on the contrary, taking advantage of the low price, order almost the entire palette, always finding a lot of suitable colors for themselves.

Some users note that “Lady” has excessive mother of pearl. This happens in certain shades, such as "Sunset" and "Caribbean Coral". For some, this becomes a plus, for others - vulgarity. The taste factor here has not been canceled.

Most of the reviews are directed towards the positive. Girls rejoice at the natural ingredients in the composition, convenient miniature packaging and the velvet structure of the product. The caramel flavor is also among the many pluses. Lipstick is recommended for use, assuring and proving with photographs a wonderful effect after application.
