My Blog

My Favorite Avon Products

Thursday, September 22, 2011

Good Morning,
This is officially my first AVON Blog.  It was inspired by my best friend from childhood who asked me to share with her my favorite AVON Products.. The message got so long that I realized that many of you might want to know more about the products I've tried and fallen in love with over the last 2 years. Please enjoy and if you want to know more about a product I have listed here or one that I didn't please don't hesitate to ask.  Thanks Nanette and Thank you  for taking a moment to read my first blog.
 
Hair:
Advanced Technologies Shampoo  currently on sale  for $2.99 ea. ( I like the anti-frizz the best) I would recommend also the color protection or volumizer and the new repair as well.    I would think those would be best for those of you who don't have curly hair.  The Frizz Control Hairspray is awesome too. Humidity in Georgia need I say more. 
I use the curl goddess products in the Mark Catalog that run $6.00 each but for straight hair you might want to try the Straightening products Salon Straight. 
 I have used several hair spray's,  I?m using the Frizz Control  in the Advance Technologies and medium spray is also a great one. I like them both. 
 
Makeup and Eyes:
-Supershock Mascara Black -MY ALL TME Favorite product is the (I used to use lancome amplicils and paid 22 for it at Macy?s.) This runs between 2.99-7.99. Sometimes it is on sale 2 for 1.
Sometimes just on sale. I try to post on fb when it is on sale because a lot of my customers are using it now.
New Ergonomic Tweezers just got these.. LOVE THEM on sale in campaign 19 for 2.99.
-Lipstick is personal preference. Lots of choices, I try whatever is running on sale in the catalogs right now in campaign 19 on page 27 there are 2 for 5.99 and lots of colors.
-I love the glimmersticks eyeliner pencils. page 23 on sale for 2 for 7.99. They twist out of the tube. I hate sharpening pencils these glide on easy cool colors,  but we do sell pencils those a lot for .99.
-I love the smooth minerals makup products. It is our version of the Bare Minerals.  I also use all the brushes. I like the ones from the mark catalog they run a on sale often too.
I use the blush and the eye shadows. I sometimes use the smooth minerals foundation and sometimes I use the healthy make up mousse (they are discontinuing the mousse and they have a flawless liquid that is supposed to be good. I ordered some for Mom but haven?t tried it yet personally.  You can still order the mousse in this campaign but as they are discontinuing it...
so enough said.
I do like that ANEW Magix- It is an overall smoother it is white and goes under make up. I like it to smooth out scars and large pores. They have a tinted version too if you prefer.
My Mom likes the nail colors ( I can?t wear color a lot due to owning a restaurant so not sure myself but she likes them)
 
Skin Care:
Anew Products
LOVE THESE ANEW Products
There are 5 regimens that include cleanser,day cream with sunscreen, night cream* and eye cream.  (sometimes they have a trial pak available 2 weeks supply). Online you can take the face quiz to see what you think or we can do it on the phone or in person If you like. This is the key to getting the right program for you. 
-The blue is for women in their 30?s, Although I'm in my 40's, I was a late bloomer, I use this one because I have large pores on my nose and this one helps with that and blackheads. 
-The red is for women in their 40?s I use the eye cream from this one as it has a special product that is exclusive to AVON and I like it for my wrinkles and dark circles.  Then it goes up age wise 50?s, 60s,  from there I'm not there yet so I haven't tried them but based on what I am using I am sold.
-There is a brand new product to replace the night cream in the regimens that is on all the commercials right now. Anew Genetics.  It is just launching now I tried a sample of it the other night but can?t tell significant yet but did look more awake the next morning. It has YouthGen technology. It is supposed to decode DNA and take up to 10 years off of the age on your face.  I?m going to try it but haven?t ordered it yet as it just came out.
-Anew Luminosity is a skin brightener, I use it once or twice a week before I go to bed and the next day I do feel lighter and brighter. Discolorations, age spots, scars, dark circles and it seems freckles too.
-Anew Clinical Retexturizing Peel is the microderm abrasion product,to remove dead skin cells. If you have that dull appearance to your skin this perks you up immediately as you age your skin tends to take on a dull flat appearance as you get older.   It is a pad (like the stridex pads and I do that once a week and also touch up my hands knees and elbows with the pad before I throw it out. To me it is the replacement for masks for adults.  I still mask once in a while too, but I think this product works better for me now. Seems to lessen those parentheses lines in my cheeks too.  I don?t use the lift products yet but those are bragged on as well.  
-Anew Clinical Winkle Remover.  I use it just a dot of my finger in the jar and I put it on the obvious winkle areas and it truly does work make that line between my eyes smoother and the one on my forehead too.  My crows feet get a swipe too.  I use it when I think about it so not everyday but you can use it daily.
 
Teens: 
-Bailey and Savannah use the ClearSkin Products. For the average teenage hormonal face.  You can buy those separate or sometimes they have it on sale It is great for breakouts it has salicylic acid but isn?t too much. 
-The Clearskin Pro is the Proactiv product for a severe acne issues.  
-There are also milder products that are for sensitive skin in the Mark catalog they are made with super foods my customers who need them seem to be very happy with them. They have 3 lines: Basic, One for Stressed out Skin, Oily and Shiny. I love these too for faces that need special care or don?t do well to normal acne products.  I really like the refresher spray for me I keep in with me to spritz on my face in the summer.
 
Lotions and Shower Gels and Body Sprays:
-I like Skin So Soft Signature Silk Smells amazing and the Naturals Bath and Body Collections:  Pomegranate Mango  mmmmm there is a new apple walnut that is great for putting you in the mood for fall.
-I like several of the perfumes.  My favorite is the chic in white and chic in black.  Similar to Victoria Secret?s Heavenly.   They also have powders and lotions and matching antiperspirants for fragance layering. 
I love the Ironman for men and I smelled a sample of the new Unscripted (Patrick Dempsey, McDreamy from Grey?s Anatomy) I like it so I?m getting some for Donnie.

Placing Orders:
You can call me fill out the form ,email me facebook msg me or txt me. or voicemail.  Be sure to include your name phone number email address and I must have: the name of the item, item number, campaign and price you in that campaign ie: (333-333 Glimmerstick 3.99 Camp 19) Prices and item number change per campaign. 
I order every other week on Tuesday. I will be placing an order this Tuesday. You can order online and have it direct shipped to you.  I believe that right now there is free shipping if you order a min of $10.00.  Credit Card or Debit Card orders are also better done online but I can help you do that if you like.
I can order from the previous 2 campaigns and the current campaign so I look to see what is running on special and then order from that campaign. You can actually look at the catalog on line you click on my website ?shop brochure? You can look through all the available campaigns.  I think we are in 20 so you can order from 18,19 and 20. 
 
Now The PITCH:
With the Christmas season right around the corner this is the perfect time to ... ready for this:  SELL AVON I?m also trying to build a team. Cool make up,jewelry and clothes, gift paks. 
My daughter Jennifer just signed up and I have a couple of other  here interested so I decided to go for  Leadership.  If you do decide you really like it signing up to sell it is only $10.00 and that covers your kit, gets your online acct number and 2 campaigns for 10 books each.  The books are off the chart cheap marketing materials and are your best selling tool.  I know I?m saving money buying AVON because I can see what is on sale and what is coming on sale. You get a 20% discount for items in the book with a $50.00 order (that can be you and other people not just your order) You also don?t get penalized if you don?t order in a campaign so sometimes if money is tight we may skip a campaign. My mom sister and order together so we almost always have a 50.00. Having helpers and offering a discount helps you meet those minimums. That goes up to   30%  with a $145.00 and there are demo catalogs that you get a 40% discount on what is in those catalogs. I've been selling AVON for 2 years.  I decided to try to do more with this because 1) I love the products and 2) I don?t want to work for anyone again and 3) it is easy!.  That should have been #1, probably. It is EASY.  Just thinking you might have an untapped market where your are.  I have tried every direct marketing thing out there. This is by far the easiest and most inclusive. clothes, jewelry, perfume,skincare make up, kitchen and household stuff and children's items. They now also have a new baby line called Tiny Trilia.   OK sales pitch over.. think about it no pressure. Have an Amazing Day.  I'm here to help! Ding Dong Avon Calling.
 
Hope you enjoyed hearing about my favorite things.
