I had been wanting to try the Avon Pro to Go lipstick and finally got around to doing it. The two lipsticks I ordered are Natural beauty and Berry Juicy. For starters, I must say the lipstick is very easy to use with one hand. I just pop my hand in my purse, feel for the lever on the lipstick and push up. The lipstick pops open and you can apply it on. I only wish the barrel could be raised a little higher than it does. It’s just kind a weird having that top flap in the way of the lipstick. (maybe I’m just being picky) I did see an indent on one of the lipsticks lined up with the flap. Like the flap cut into it when I applied it, but it has not done it again.
I like that the lipsticks are very moisturizing. The Natural Beauty does not show up on my pigmented lips as much as the Berry Juicy.
The Berry Juicy has a better color pay off and is a pretty pink. The color comes across almost like tinted lipgloss to me. (So, I like it.) Keep in mind this review is based on two lipstick colors only. Other colors may have a better color pay off, as did one of the lipsticks I ordered compared to the other. Plus my lips are pretty pigmented.
IMO- If you need an easy portable lipstick to use on the go, this lipstick is very handy. It is also very moisturizing- kind a gives you an oily, tea tree oil feeling on the lips. So, if you need something to replace your chapstick with some color, this will work. I really think your skin tone will make a difference on how the lipstick color will look. It’s hard to say how good the staying power is. The pink one last longer than the peach on me. Weird!!
I would give it 3.5 to 4 stars!! The color pay off is iffy and depending on your lips may not show well. Lasts about 2-3 hrs on me. It really comes down to preference, because a couple of my friends really like it. I think it is neat, but not the best lipstick out there. Seems more water down than a lipstick should be. Can’t say this applies to all the lipstick colors.
The Natural beauty is a golden peach color and the Berry Juicy is a hottish pink color.
Here are some pics on how the lipstick works. Kind a obvious really.
