Vintage Pink.

This is Vintage Pink from Avon's Everlasting Colour Range, their longwear line. Unfortunately you can't get this any more as this line of Lippies has been discontinued.


I don't wear it too often as I find it a little drying on my lips.


It leans more towards orange than pink, although the bullet is a lovely pink colour.

L-R: Single swipe, Double swipe

Vintage Pink is well pigmented and wears evenly, and it doesn't leave a funny bitter taste at the back of my tongue as some Avon lippies do.


Applying well from the slender bullet, you can layer it up to increase its longevity, although a single, well applied coat will last a good 3 hours (and 3 cups of coffee). Adding a coat of gloss or balm over the top helps to prevent its drying effect. I like that the container closes with a solid satisfying snap, as most of Avon's Lipsticks do, so you don't have to worry about it opening in your bag.


I think I paid about €6 for it, about 2 years ago, and I have worn it about 5 or 6 times since I bought it.


Its a lovely colour to wear at the start of spring. Its not the most exciting colour, but it makes for a nice change.
