Advantages: Looks and feels lovely

Disadvantages: Not kiss proof, can go a bit gritty

I always keep an eye on the Avon website to see what exciting deals they have going each month, and a few weeks ago I was pleased to see this Sheer Lip Gloss with Jojoba Oil selling for just £1 instead of the usual £3. The lip gloss is part of the Avon Care range which also includes face creams, hand creams and body creams, and the range often has special offers within it.

The tube of lip gloss comes in a small pink cardboard box. The tube itself is also pink, with a blue lid and a blue Avon logo on it. It is very cute and girly looking. When you unscrew the lid, you find a slanted applicator which is very similar to the Lancome Juicy Tubes applicator. You squeeze the tube and a small amount of the gloss comes out, which you can then easily smooth onto your lips with the applicator.

The gloss looks really lovely when applied. It has a hint of pink which is enough to even out your lip colour and give your lips a glow but probably not enough to interfere with any other lipstick you may have on underneath. It gives a nice shiny look but is not too unnatural looking.

The gloss stays on quite well and I don't have to re-apply it too often. It can stay put through drinking and even eating to a certain extent which is impressive, but it can't withstand any kissing unfortunately. Not many lip glosses can though!

The lip gloss feels nice on my lips and is quite conditioning, which is probably due to the jojoba oil. It is not as moisturising as Vaseline or Carmex but it is better than most other glosses I have tried and doesn't dry my lips out.

The only thing I have to say against it is that sometimes as it is wearing off it tends to go a little bit 'bitty' and I feel like I have very fine grit on my lips which is not too good.

I am very pleased with the lip gloss in general and will definitely buy some more once this tube has been used up. It gives me lovely pink shiny lips and it's not too expensive, especially when on offer, so there's not much to complain about really!

Summary: I would recommend it to everyone
