Beauty Bonus! Get it while it's hot!

Wanted to give you all a heads up on the latest super special at AVON! This 7 piece beauty blockbuster is worth $100 and you can get it for a very limited time for only $16.99.

Yes, there is a catch. You have to buy $10 worth of select beauty products to get the $16.99 deal, but when you think of the savings, that's pocket change. Another bigger with the deal -
FREE SHIPPING! That's my favourite word.

[Seriously, I hate buying like a $8.00 product and then pay $7.50 for shipping or something. Although AVON charges something under $4.00 for shipping, or something like that.]


So, check out what all the goody back has, then head over to AVON and pick it up before they run out.

[That's not a sales gimmick. They really do run out. Trust me on that one. There's a number of products I've sadly missed out on, even as an AVON rep, because I didn't jump the gun fast enough. Yes, even us AVON reps lose out now and then. : ) ]



Here's what you get!

Sleek beauty bag

AVON Product Review: Cleansers for 30+

Name of Product:

ANEW Rejuvenate Revitalizing 2 in 1 in Gel Cleanser.

 

Where You Can Buy It:

AVON product #510-271

 

Product Description:

1.  Deep cleans and tones

2.  Rejuvenates fatigued looking skin.

3.  Continued use improves skin texture and makes pores look tighter.

4.  Visibly reduces lines.

5.  Dermatologist tested.

6.  Allergy tested.

 

Who This Product is Intended For:

The ANEW Rejuvenate Revitalizing 2-in-1 Gel Cleanser is designed for women in their 30’s or even late 20’s who are experiencing early signs of aging. 

Early signs: Dull skin, fine lines and enlarged pores.

 

Pro’s:

1.  Unlike soap, it makes your skin feel clean and residue free.

2.  It’s both a cleanser and toner combined, thus saving you money and time in the morning.

3.  Gentle on your skin.

4.  Deep cleansing helps control blackheads and breakouts.

 

Con’s:

1.  Some customers who have tried the product say if you have very dry skin, you may want to dry a different cleanser.  Others say it doesn’t dry out their skin.

2.  A very small minority of people who are very sensitive to fragrances, think the fragrance is overwhelming, but the majority really like it.

3.  If you have very sensitive skin and know the sensation of feeling like your skin is burning after you’ve used either a cleanser or even a moisturizer, you might experience it with this.  Again, it’s rare, but like with any other product it does happen.

4. It doesn’t remove make-up like water-proof mascara.

 

Personal Opinion:

Everyone’s skin responds differently to every product on the market.  The same goes for this.  If you look at the Pro’s, remember that some users have experienced the opposite.  If you look at the Con’s, remember that some users have experienced the opposite.

My mom, who’s in her mid-70’s, loves this product, which is designed for people 40 years younger.   If someone else in her age ranged used it, they would probably wonder about her sanity.

I read a lot of product reviews before I ever decide to buy something.  But in the end, the only way I know if the product is worth anything is to try it out myself.  If you don’t like it, you can return it to AVON for a full refund. 

Where You Can Buy It:

AVON product #510-271

Beautiful Skin!

I found a really nice article today on skin care that I thought you might enjoy! The picture to the right is not a part of her article. It's a side shot of myself on a really bad day - like today! :]

Anyway! I hope you enjoy the article!

The Key To Having Beautiful Skin

by Linda Farington

It is never too late to have beautiful skin. Cleaning and
moisturizing your skin on a regular basis is the key to keeping
your skin looking healthy and supple. With so many products on
the market today, it is very confusing to know which ones to use
and which ones to avoid. It can be a real case of trial and
error when it comes to finding out which one will work for you.

What To Look For In A Skin Cleanser

Keeping your skin clean is one of the most important steps to
having beautiful skin. There are many products available for
this process. When choosing the right product, one needs to keep
in mind what type of skin they have, what areas they will be
using the product on, and how often the product can be used. The
best types of skin cleansers are the ones you can use all over
your body.

While you can get a different product for your face,

body, and feet, an all in one product can save you money. For
those with very dry skin, an exfoliating cleanser will help to
rid your skin of debris, leaving it feeling and looking supple
and fresh.

For those with oily skin, it is best to avoid
cleansers with an extra
moisturizer in them. Many of these
products can leave the skin
feeling greasier than it did prior
to washing. Make-up users should
make sure the skin cleanser
that they choose is able to be used on
a daily basis. This
offers you the ability to clean your face each day
of the debris
and harsh chemicals that make-up products can leave behind.

Keeping You Skin Most and Looking Young

One of the main components to having young supple skin is
keeping it moisturized. Your moisturizer should match your skin
type. Oily skin still needs proper vitamins and moisturizing,
but not as often as dry skin.

Choosing a product is fairly
simple, once you know which category
your skin is. There are
also plenty of products on the market today
that are designed
for those with many skin types that are designed
to be used all
over the body. Vitamin E creams and those with
collagen in them
are the most essential to look for. Collagen is
the key to
keeping skin looking young and vibrant.

Is There A Miracle Skin Regime

There is no single wonder product that can promise to make your
skin beautiful. The key to having and keeping beautiful, young
looking skin is to take care of it. Applying many healthy habits
into your life accomplishes this.

Eating well for proper body
function is the easiest to do. The next
important factor is to
make sure to protect your skin from sun and
wind damage. A
simple cleansing and moisturizing regime, with the
use of a
sunscreen, can easily help to maintain the integrity of your
skin for many, many years. So, no matter what you choose to use
and how much spend, the key to having healthy skin is living a
healthy lifestyle.

The campfire smoke blues

When the weather turns bad and you love being in the woods, there's only one solution - build a tepee! Tepee's are the perfect shelter. You can stand up and move around. You have excellent protection from the elements. And best of all - you can build a fire in them and the smoke goes up instead of in your face. :]

If you cover the floor with pine boughs or dry leaves, you continue to feel like you're a part of nature and not separated from it like tents are
designed to do.

So, back to the fire. Even though the smoke goes up and out the top of my tepee, I still come home feeling like my pores are clogged with ashes and smoke. I've been using Avon's soothing cleansing lotion, but afterwards, I still don't feel like my face is clean. I like it for everyday use, but not when I've been exposed to grime.

So, it was back to experimenting with Avon's products. Next on the list (because it was on sale) was the "Anti-aging Thermal Cleanser." That stuff is cool! It's gritty, heats up your face (which feels good after being in the bitter cold) and by the time you're finished you know you're clean. For now, at least, this is my pick for removing smoke scum.

I've also been experimenting with the various hand lotions and comparing them to my homemade herbal one. When I say experimenting, I'm talking about being an idiot. Instead of wearing my Thermalite gloves, I've been exposing my hands to the weather and watching them suffer the near freezer burnt look.

At this point, it's nearly a tie. Each has it's good and bad points, but I'm finding by combining them I've have some pretty decent luck in repairing the damage. Anyway! That's a story for another day!

Happy trails!
