And, more specifically, let’s girl talk about Avon’s new Mattitude Liquid Matte Lipstick and Avon’s Far Away Perfume.
I posted pics from my What’s New Rep Book for you in a previous post about the exciting news of Avon launching a brand new beauty product, called Mattitude, and I finally got my hands on a demo sample. So exciting! And it is sooooo freaking cool! I’ve never worn a lipstick like this one before. It comes in a tube like a lip gloss, as you can see in the picture above. When you apply it with the wand, you’re just not expecting so much color to be present on your lips right off the bat, but it is totally a super rich color coverage automatically. It glides on so smoothly, and you can rub your lips together, and they are feeling smooth and silky, and then in a few seconds – it sets. When it sets, it is exactly as Avon has described it – It feels as light as a feather and velvety soft. It’s very luxurious, for sure. You could even layer upon it, if you wanted, but I would suggest using a lip liner first for precise application.
Avon has formulated this new lipstick using micronized pigments, which result in very vibrant colors, as well as vitamin E and poppy seed oils to ensure the most comfortable wear.
I’m standing – clapping – well done Avon, well done! This is super fabulous!
The Mattitude Lip line will be launching August 21st in Campaign 19 – which, I will give you an insiders tip – The campaigns usually launch online a day before the official launch date – sometime in the afternoon, so mark your calendars to be sure to get yours first!
There are 8 stunning shades coming out on the 21st: Devoted, Resilient, Relentless, Persistent (that’s the one I got), Driven, Ambitious, Tenacious, and Resolute.
I’ll be very excited to see what your “Mattitude” will be! Please let me know when you snag some for yourself.
And now for our perfume talk –
Have you tried Avon’s Far Away Perfume? O – M – G ! I hope you enjoy feeling super luxurious, because between wearing Mattitude and Far Away, you are there honey – absolutely!
Here is Far Away’s description:
Top notes of peach and freesia blend elegantly with mid notes of jasmine, osmanthus and orange flower to awaken the senses. Drift away with soothing bottom notes of vanilla musk, sandalwood and amber.
It’s impossible for me to put in words how it smells, except beautiful. It smells beautiful. It is warm and soft as well. All the notes are very pleasant, from the first to the last. It is easy on the nose and makes me feel happy wearing it. I know that may sound funny, but I am very sensitive to aromas and they make me feel certain ways. I’ve told you in previous posts that I was an artistic candle maker, and I was also a perfumer. I’ve not worn perfume in a while since I became super sensitive after being around strong aromas for such a long time, but I have now been venturing back into the world of scent which I love so much, through Avon, which I also love so much, and have been enjoying trying out some of their new formulas, and I have been very pleasantly surprised by their latest creations and have been wearing them myself.
So, Far Away definitely gets the Jfay thumbs-up, as well as Velvet. Those are the 2 that I have worn and experienced for myself so far. I will be trying more and will give you my thumbs-up choices as we go.
Far Away is listed at $25.00 a bottle, but there is a special going on right now where you can get any 2 Far Away fragrances (yes, there are more than 1 Far Away formulas – I’ll have to give the others a try too!) for $27.00.
I’ve enjoyed our lipstick and perfume talk. I hope you have too. And I hope you’ll give these 2 products a try. I’d love to hear your experiences with Avon products. Let me know if you have a favorite that I should try. You can reach out to me here anytime (Contact form on the Free Sample Club page) or on any of my social media forums (IG, FB), or email me at jfaysbeauty@att.net. I’ll be happy to hear from you!
Till next time, stay fabulous!
