Swatch & Review: Avon Ultra Color Indulgence Lip Color

Ultra Color Indulgence lip color is the latest and greatest in Avon lipsticks! These lip colors are creamy, moisturizing, lightweight(thanks to no heavy waxes), and leave a beautiful dewy finish on the lips. Most shades have medium to full coverage, with the exception of just a few that I will get to down below. They also have a light fruity fragrance to them that smells yummy and not at all overwhelming.

So, here are some swatches for you! The top lip swatches are with a flash, the bottom for each color is normal indoor light.

First up is In Bloom. This shade is a very pale pinky nude. Normally, shades like this would leave me looking very pasty and washed out but this shade applies with light/medium coverage so enough of my natural lip color comes through to prevent that from happening. It is easily built up though if you want it lighter and more opaque. There is the tiniest hint of  golden champagne like super fine shimmer to this color.

Honey Flower is a little more my speed when it comes to "nude" lip colors. It has a warm peachy-pink  undertone to it. Applies full coverage with no detectable shimmer.

Petal Pink is one of those light, cool toned Nicki Minaj-esque pinks. Doesn't look that great on me, but it applied well. Full coverage and no shimmer.

Pink Blossom has about the same depth as Petal Pink, but is definitely a warmer pink and looks much better on me. This is one of my favorites out of the bunch. Applies full coverage with no shimmer.

Peach Petunia is my absolute favorite of all of them! The perfect pinky-peach for Spring and Summer. Applies full coverage with no shimmer.

Rose Bouquet is a muted berry shade. This is another favorite! Applied like a dream, full coverage and no shimmer. This shade is perfect for anyone who really wants to rock a red lip but is nervous to go full-on red. It suits all skin tones and will work in all seasons.

Day Lily is a plum-y mauve. This is another shade that will suit pretty much any skin tone and work year round. It applies full coverage and doesn't have any shimmer.

Poppy Pink is a vibrant hot pink. Another favorite! It applies full coverage and has no detectable shimmer.

Orchid Petal is a bright pinkish purple. Love this color! It applies full coverage, and has the very faintest hint of violet shimmer in it. You really don't notice it at all unless the light hits it just right.

Red Tulip is a true red. Not too orange, not too blue, not too brown...just true red. It applies full coverage and has no shimmer. This one's another favorite of mine.

Plum Verbena is a deep reddish plum. It applies pretty sheer(and looks pretty that way), but if you build it up for more coverage it does get a little streaky and color settles into the lines of the lip.

Chocolate Rose is the deepest of the bunch, a dark reddish brown. This one also applies sheer(again, I like it that way) and gets streaky when built up for more coverage.

For the most part I love this line. The only color that I really can't wear is Petal Pink, it is just too cool for me. I personally am happy that the two darkest shades apply sheer because colors like that that are opaque have a tendency to look a little too Lorde-ish on me, and, well, I'm not Lorde.

What do you guys think of these new lipsticks? Which colors do you like the best?
