Avon Color Trend lipstick swatches – old line (grab them as long as you can)
Color Trend, the younger and affordable Avon make-up line, is coming with a new face and brand new tones. Waiting for it, I’ll show you the swatches of the previous lipstick line, in case in your country there’s still the old line and you want to buy something.
