How many of you out there buy Avon? Or sell Avon?
Avon is a company that use to be strictly sold door to door, through catalogs. It has now made its way online. Avon is a company that sells beauty items such as makeup, lotions, and body washes. These days they also sell jewelry, clothes, shoes, books, etc. They really do sell a lot of great things!
If you are an Avon customer - what's your favorite Avon product?
I just received a basket full of Avon products at my bridal shower and I am so excited to start using everything!! I got everything from chapsticks to perfume and body washes. Avon is great!
And if you're interested in checking out their website it's www.avon.com

I love Avon! I just got a set of eyeshadows that are fantastic. It's a pre-blended three shade rub-on application, one time use. You just take the tissue paper out that's got the shadow on it, put it on your eye, rub, blend, and you're done!! Fantastic. I got lavender and taupe. I could never master the smoky eye blending and wished I could .. with this, it's so easy! I love it and can't wait to order more. I used it at a friend's wedding over the weekend and everyone asked how I learned to do it! Hahaha. :D

I just went and looked, and naturally, since I already bought them, they are now on sale. LOL! Regularly $9 they are $3.99! If you go to makeup, then eyes, they are on the first page. :D

My mother has been an Avon lady for 30 years now (it started as Beautifont, I think, here in the Philippines) 
I do not have to buy make-up anywhere else because I get everything from my mother. I especially like their skin care products. I am a little vain so I cannot run out of facial cleanser/wash, toner and moisturizer. I am also dependent on Anew Luminosity and other Anew products.
Have a nice day!

I LOVE Avon. We just recently got an actual Avon STORE at the mall near my house - how totally amazing is that. I love it. I don't shop there very often (only because I usually just get my makeup from Target - nothing fancy), but when I do shop there, I love to get their eyeliner (which is usually like $4 - AKA very cheap!) and some of their perfumes are nice-smelling. I love the idea of having an actual Avon store in the mall. I was getting sick of going through Avon representatives, and having to wait weeks & weeks for what I ordered to come in. It was kind of a hassle, if you ask me. And then of course the Avon rep. I used quit! So that wasn't any good.

Until last year, I was an Avon representative. I gave up because we relocated to Spain, but I still buy products from a friend when I'm in England. I love everything Avon, but the Anew skincare range is my favourite. It's all I use, and people who meet me for the first time always assume I'm at least 10 years younger than my 56 years. And I wouldn't use any other mascara. As far as body products go, I like the Skin so Soft age-defying products.

I love the lipstics from Avon..the moisture rich ones.I love the way they beautifuly glide.My favourate perfume is Little Black dress.and I just love it.
The only problem I find it is that since I order the products from catalogue, theres no option for me to check out if the color suits me or not, I have to go with instinct purely. This time I saw eyeshadow and liner in one..its looking good and I ordered one for me. I love their jwellery too, but sometimes it so happens I don't like the product.. mainly with deo's or some lipstics and nailpolishes, which look different in catalogue and in reality.

I'm not a big fan of Avon... probably because I don't shop much for the kind of products they sell - lotion, makeup, lip balms... these are things I rarely buy and mostly receive as gifts :D I do know that I'm not impressed with Avon's underwear products (panties and bras) but they do have nice moisturizers :) That's probably my favorite product although I'd still go for a more established name like L'Oreal or something much cheaper than that but still better than Avon: Nivea :)
Thanks for the response on my discussion!

I have quite a few products by Avon...I have 2 aunts that have sold it through the years and we have always used Avon products. I use other stuff to that I have tried over the years, but I would say that most of the stuff I have right now is by Avon....LOL

Hi Jenn..I haven't seen any Avon products in years but I do love their products.
I used to love looking through their small colourful book and picking out all the sale items that were 99 cents to $1.99. There were always good buys in there.
I don't like all the clothing and other stuff they sell now. I liked it better when it was strictly makeup, body washes, perfumes, deodorants, and the occasional special jewelry piece. All these clothes and toys don't really interest me.

Few days ago I become an avon representative, because my mother do it when I was a child and now I would like to have a job that can give me the opportunity to earn something without take me too much time, and I know this products since I was a child so I know that it a well known company and the product are good. Maybe will be difficult at the beginnig but the main feature of avon is to sell at costumer's home and give free samples to try before the purchase. In italy we don't have yet the possibility to buy from internet, I see the e-shopping and it's really comfortable to get avon products by internet!!
