I got this lipstick a while ago from Petra who runs Adjusting Beauty blog (thank you again) and she's not only reviewed the formula in detail, but also swatched all the shades available in this post here. This formula has a build-in primer and it promises a smooth finish on the lips as well as prolonged staying power. It exists in 22 shades, even some bold ones like blue, so there is something for every one.
Texture: Formula is pretty standard for a lipsticks that was released in recent years. It's a very smooth formula that glides on the lips with ease, it's opaque in one coat and very comfortable on the lips. Based on swatches I expected it to look almost glossy, but this shade looks like a classic creamy lipstick on me.
Shade: Blushing Beauty is a medium pink that leans towards purple, so it's one of the more cool looking shades, though I wouldn't describe it as a classic cool colour, instead it's more neutral-cool. It reminds me of how Rimmel's Airy Fairy looked on me, but it's been years since I had that lipstick. As is usual for such a shade, expect it to look lighter if your skin tone is darker than NC/W 10.
Staying power: It's a creamy finish lipstick, so it transfers and won't survive eating. The build-in primer that should help it last longer doesn't really work best here and if you want a lipstick formula that lasts longer by Avon, check their matte lipstick range.
Packaging: is a standard square tube and I have no complaints about it. It's completely plastic unlike their matte range which has a metal inner tube, so Mark range tubes don't feel as "premium" as those.
Price and availability: Regular price is 8.50€ in Avon, but these are often on offer.
If you're looking for a very comfortable lipstick and you can sacrifice a bit of the staying power, these are nice, especially if you find them on offer. Plus the shade range looks a bit better to me than the standard one Avon usually does. However, my favourites from Avon stil remain their matte lipsticks.
Have a great day!
