I have a handful of favorite go-to Avon scents and one of them is Little Red Dress Eau de Parfum. It is the perfect blend of sweet (raspberry) and earthy (sandalwood) with a hint of floral (rose) just to keep it interesting. I love its sophistication – it’s perfect for wearing to work or out on the town.
Sometimes I’m not in the mood for a full lipstick color, but I still need a little hint of color to keep from looking subhuman – Avon’s True Color Lip Balm is the bomb!
I fought off testing out Avon’s MagiX Face Perfector for years before finally giving into all the pressure from customers and team members to just try it out. Why? Because I have picky sensitive skin. Nearly every time I try something new, my face rewards me with breakouts; and if it really doesn’t like a product, I get the ultimate prize: cystic acne. This fact alone made me gun shy, but add to that the knowledge that this product intentionally covers up your pores to create the illusion of a flawless finish and the deal was sealed: I wasn’t ever going to try this thing. No way, no how.
Ladies, let’s talk about our facial hair – REMOVING IT! I’d managed to go 45 years without removing the fine blonde peach fuzz on my chin and cheeks, but finally decided I’d be willing to test out Avon’s Skin So Soft Fresh & Smooth Sensitive Skin Facial Hair Removal Cream since I’d had so many people ask me about it. I noticed the fuzz when applying foundation/powder – it would cake on the hairs and I hated that. Probably nobody else noticed, but I did…
All the hot bronzers, highlighters and shimmer powders on the beauty market have 46-year-old me groaning. Middle-aged ladies generally have fine (if not medium to deep) lines to worry about and bringing attention to them is not what we want. In addition, many of them have so much glitter content it looks like we’re sadly trying to recapture our clubbing days.
