I was lucky to be part of this review club, receiving the Avon Ultra Color Bold Lipstick in Rapid Rose and the The Big and Daring Volume Mascara in Black.

The lipstick is a matte pink/orange shade, perfect for summer. It isn't drying, as a lot of matte lipsticks are, and has a great color pay off. It doesn't take much to to get a bold, vibrant color. It's a great product.

The mascara is a brush wand mascara. It has a curved brush and is quite large. I'm not a huge fan of big wands myself. The brush is curved, and it takes some getting used to. It's not the easiest to use, and I had problems with clumping. It does stay for the day, but does tend to flake towards the end of the day - but that's fine. I prefer smaller, plastic wands, but if you don't mind the wand - the products itself is great!

Thanks Avon and Beauty Bulletin!
