Avon: Smooth Minerals Blush in Perfect Plum

Hello lovelies <3

   Recently, my mom bought me this blush and I have to say I like it. I've never tried Avon's makeup products, just their perfume (which in my opinion is mostly diluted with so much alcohol, it's pretty much all I smell). 

  The product is smooth, but it's a bit chalky. It's more of a mauve shade, too. It looks beautiful against my dark skin, honestly. But it has no lasting power :(. I really wanted to love this blush. It lasts for about 3, maybe 4 hours. This blush has to be blended really well to look seamless, because it has a tendency to look chalky and ashy (in my case) when first applied. I wasn't all that satisfied with this blush. I wear this blush when I'm not long (grocery store and such).

   This shade is suitable for those with olive/dark skin with a cool undertone. I have a cool to neutral undertone. 

   I also don't have the patience for loose powder. With the sifting and shaking to get the right amount and all that. I prefer pressed powder/cream formulas of anything. The packaging is pretty cute and simple :). It's a nice size to throw in your bag and be on your way. No mess or anything.
