Calling all beauty enthusiasts: These cleansers are perfect for those who follow beauty trends and are up on the latest in skincare.

Anew Clean Cleaners vary by form, so picking the right cleanser is easy:
— Our Gel, Foam, and Cream forms address the needs of specific skin types (Dry, Normal, Combination, or Oily).
— The Scrub, Wipes, and No-Rinse forms are for all skin types and offer additional benefits (Hydration, Makeup Removal, or Exfoliation).
Avon also offers the latest innovations: like a vibrating Cleansing Brush, the moisturizing No-Rinse Micellar Cleansing Water (hot product alert!), and a Conditioning Toner, all of which can be applied after any Anew Clean Cleanser.
Did you know? All of Avon’s cleansers are powerful and gentle — they don’t contain soap or alcohol that can dry out skin! (Except the Illuminating Rich Foam Cleanser)

4. Eye. AM/PM: Use your Anew eye product.

SKINCARE Q & A:

Q: Why shouldn’t I wash my face with bar soap?
A: Bar soaps can have a drying effect and can strip away the natural oils that skin needs. Unlike most bar soaps, our gentle cleansers are formulated to deal with specific skin types and needs.
Q: How do I determine my skin type?
A: — If you have large pores all over your face (pore size is also an indication of oil production), notice skin getting shiny throughout the day or if oil visibly appears on a tissue when blotting, you are considered to have an Oily/Combination Skin Type.
— If your pores are larger primarily in the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) and visible oil appears only in those areas throughout the day, you are considered to have a Normal/Combination Skin Type.
— If your skin almost always feels tight and looks rough, you are considered to have a Dry Skin Type.
Q: Why should I use the Anew Clean Cleansing Brush?
A: The Cleansing Brush enhances your Anew Clean Cleanser and it is gentle and suitable for those with sensitive skin. Plus, it cleanses better than your hands alone!
Q: What is Micellar Water?
A: Everyone is talking about this no-water wonder! Micellar Water contains micelle molecules that act like magnets, attracting and dissolving dirt, oil, makeup, and other impurities. It leaves skin feeling nourished and hydrated, and since no water is needed, it is great for on-the-go!
Q: Can I use a Scrub daily?
A: Our scrub is formulated with Palm Seed Powder and Jojoba Wax Beads to provide gentle exfoliation that is fine for everyday use (AM/PM). Gentle exfoliation improves skin’s texture and accelerate skin renewal.

My New Makeup Obsession: True Color Lip Crayons

Afternoon, beauts — Before today I had only heard of lip crayons… I never tried them out. I had a few customers order some lately and so I had asked: “What’s the buzz on these lip crayons?” What I found out was that these True Color Lip Crayons are: Easy to use, Have a convenient/simplistic packaging for outings/trips, Well-pigmented color (12 shades to choose from), and Available in two finishes for different looks (Shimmer and Cream). I was quite curious to try one out for myself and while a few different shades struck my fancy, I went with shade Risque Rose for my first. It has a Shimmer finish and is a cute shade of pink. If you are not a fan of sparkle, this lip crayon shade is not the one for you — Instead, stick to the Cream finish shades to suit your style. 
As of this blog post, the Avon True Color Lip Crayon has a 3.6 out of 5 star rating with 100 Online Customer Reviews. The only thing that I do not like about how the Lip Crayons are listed online, is that there is no mention of which shades are Shimmer and which ones are Cream. I feel that perhaps the products rating would be higher if shoppers had a better understanding of what they were ordering. Below you will find the list of which shades are of a Shimmer (sparkly) finish and which shades are of a Cream (non-sparkly) finish.
SHIMMER FINISH SHADES:
Reddy for Me, Mauve Model, Risque Rose, Mod Mocha, and Pouty Plum.
CREAM FINISH SHADES:
Pink Premier, Charming Pink, Berry Blush, Plum Perfect, Red Haute, Fairest Nude, and Just Rosy.
This product is regularly priced at $8 each, but often goes on sale or runs under a special promotion. Be sure to check out my Avon eStore for current pricing as well as the complete list of product ingredients.

Discover the True Color Technology. Reveal the perfect pout with a full sweep of shimmery high-shine color. Infused with Vitamin E and Shea Butter for rich, creamy lip color and liner in one.
BENEFITS:• Rich, creamy lip color and liner in one.
• Twists up for more product.
• Sheer to medium coverage.
• Creamy formula with Vitamin E and Shea Butter.
• Glides on smooth and easy.
• Ease of a pencil with the coverage of a lipstick.
• Rich, creamy color.
• Shades designed for every skin tone.
• .098 oz net wt.
TO USE:• Glide onto lips.

Online Customer Comments about Ultra Color Lip Crayon:
“I purchased 3 of the lip crayons in Berry Blush (03920830), Red Haute (03920840) and Fairest Nude (03920870). I am constantly getting compliments when wearing any of them but if I had to pick a favorite, I’d say the Red Haute is it!”
“OMG! I’m in love! So in love…that I have 6 colors and I’m working on owning them all! Goes on great, lasts a long time, brilliant popping colors that don’t feather. Hoping for more colors in the future!”
“Let’s see, lipstick, liner, filler, ombre….so many applications and the color stays and feels good on my lips! Versatile! Great colors!”
“I love this crayon and will buy again. It stays on, feels good color is just right. Really like the shape and tube. Thanks”
“I purchased the Pouty Plum Lip Crayon, and it is such a gorgeous color! I will say that it’s a little bit darker than I thought it would be, but I can put a lighter color lip gloss over it to tone it down. If there could be another Plum color, a bit lighter, that would be perfect! These Lip Crayons go on quickly and look creamy and beautiful. I highly recommend them!”

Bronzed Matte Makeup Tutorial w/ Avon Celeb MUA Lauren Anderson

Hey, beauts! The weekend is near so I figured it was a perfect time to cover one of the latest beauty trends: bronzed matte makeup! With Avon makeup products, it is easy and fun to achieve this trendy look. Check out Avon Celebrity Makeup Artist, Lauren Anderson's makeup tutorial video below --- then, read on for info on the products used, as well as the opportunity to order them online!

                      



Just like Lauren Anderson did in her video, let's start with the True Color Matte Eyeshadow Quad in shade Desert Sunset. This shade palette is warm in color and right on trend with the matte finish! Regularly priced at $8. You can check out my Avon eStore to see if this product is currently on sale or under a special promotional offer. 

Next, let's talk about the Avon Glow Bronzing Powder. This product is available in 3 different shades: Sunkissed Glow, Warm Glow, and Light Bronze. It is regularly priced at $9, but as with any Avon product - check online for current deals. Avon Glow is a makeup collection of sun-inspired beauty! This silky, luminous bronzer blends easily for a streak-free, radiant look. Here's another beauty tip: The secret to believable bronze is to dust powder where the sun naturally hits...cheekbones, nose and forehead.

After getting your eyes all glowed up, it is time to define the lash line with Glimmersticks Eye Liner in shade Cosmic Brown (Reg. price is $7). Glimmersticks Eye Liner gives you beautiful stay put colors, you can wear all day! The dazzling colors define and enhance your eyes! The retractable eyeliner creates a perfect point that allows for easy precision application. Stay put eyeliner wont move or face and is perfect for long wear! 

Once that is done, accentuate your lashes with Avon's new Big & Multiplied Volume Mascara(Reg. price is $9). This mascara is available in 3 shades: Black, Brown/Black, and Blackest Black. Our first triple-threat mascara: detangling + serious seperation + head-turning volume! For the ultimate look in lash fullness. Featuring a killer combo of brushing and combing zones that instantly seperate and volumize lashes. Designed with Smart Slip Technology, our mascara sticks to lashes, not to itself. Good-bye unruly lashes! 

Last but certainly not least, use the Perfectly Matte Lipstick in shade Marvelous Mocha. I am a huge fan or matte lips and Avon's Perfectly Matte line is truly top-of-the-line! An extremely smooth, completely matte lipstick that never cakes, cracks, or compromises. Seals in moisture for a lightweight velvety feel. Our new matte lipstick comes in 12 bold, beautiful colors for any long-lasting, chic look. Regular price is $9. Check out youravon.com/ssandis for current Avon Sales & Special Offers.

A Beauty Guide on Avon Makeup Brushes

I used to be the girl who applied liquid foundation with my fingertips — the girl who used the sponge applicators (that come in the eyeshadow palettes) to apply my eyeshadow. I would try to create new and exciting lippy looks by mixing my lipsticks and never even knowing that there was such a thing as a lip brush. Then, when I would go to use my lipstick again, it was never the shade it was supposed to be — but instead my own shade creation. Ugh! What was I doing wrong? I saw others using these big, fluffy brushes and such and I thought — is all of that really necessary? Does it really make a difference? So, last year shortly after I signed up online tobecome an Avon Representative, I gave in to what I thought at the time to be “the hype” and ordered a few of the Avon Pro Makeup Brushes.
The first brushes that I tried out were: the Avon Pro Eyeshadow Brush and the Avon Pro Crease Brush. I didn’t want to go all out if I found that these really weren’t necessary for me. I set aside the sponge applicator that I had been using and dabbed the new eyeshadow brush in my Avon True Color Eyeshadow Quad (shade Chocolate Sensation!).
My first impression was how simple it was to get the product on the brush. With the sponge applicator, you have to sort of dig in at it and smear it on — not with the Avon Pro Eyeshadow Brush, though! All I had to do was a gentle tap, a smooth, effortless tap and I was all prepped. I applied the first quad shade on my inner eye lid, blending outward toward the center. I flipped the brush over to the “clean side” and prepped it with the second quad shade. At this point I was thinking: “Wow, this is really easy — and fast!” To finish off my look, I grabbed the Avon Pro Crease Brush to use the remaining quad shades and give me the smoky look I adore. No mess, no fuss, just a girl playing with some makeup.
After I had my eyes all dolled up, I took a good look in the mirror. My eyeshadow seemed to be more even than it had ever had before. These brushes are very easy to use and it was then that I realized that I did need these in my life. *Insert dramatic faced emoticon here*
myeyeshadowbrushes
My take on these beauty tools:
Application time was reduced due to the ease of these tools. The finished look appears to have a more professional finish than what my prior application process was giving me. I highly recommend everyone who wears makeup to have a set of pro-style makeup brushes. I feel that anyone who enjoys applying makeup and trying out new techniques will find Avon’s Pro Makeup Brushes to be effective tools to their process.
My next makeup brush purchase from Avon was the Avon Pro Kabuki Brush. I use this to apply my Smooth Minerals Powder Foundation(Which, by the way, I am absolutely in love with! I had never noticed how perfumed my previous face makeup was until using the Smooth Minerals product. There is zero fragrance to it and it works wonders for my sensitive skin and covering up any imperfections. Gives a gorgeous glow, also.) The Kabuki Brush has no long handle to it, you just cup it in your hand and swirl softly on your face. The bristles aren’t tough nor harsh and work great in getting the powder blended all over.
My most recent Avon Pro Makeup Brush purchase was the Avon Pro Blush Brush. I use this brush in applying my Smooth Minerals Blush(Another fabulous product! I currently have shade Blushing Mauve. This gives such a pretty pink and rosy glow to my cheeks. Great for defining my cheekbones, too! You can dab as little or as much as is your style!) I have noticed that Avon’s Blush Brush does shed a bristle or two at times. This doesn’t happen every time and when it does it’s easy enough to get the stray bristle off. Worth mentioning to you all though! Overall, I do like the ease of the brush. I like the longer handle for applying my blush as it seems to aid me in not overdoing it when I don’t have to. The longer handle seems to give me more control over where i’m applying my blush to.


My Avon Pro Makeup Brush Collection is no where near complete, there are many more brushes that I will be trying out soon! Avon’s branch-brand mark. has a new mini brush set coming out soon. This comes complete with an adorable gold bag to hold them in!

Online Customer Comments about Sensitive Skin Bubble Delight Bubble Bath:
“I use this product for my child’s bath time. Gentle for his sensitive skin.”
“I LOVE it! This is the one product that I can use in a bath and not get a rash. It smells great and gives lots of bubbles too.”
“I love Avon bubble bath. The bottle is slim and fits well on my bath tub rim. It is easy to handle and bubbles up well.”
“I loved this bubble bath from the moment I first tried it! I have very hard water where I live and many other brands I have tried do not care to bubble in it! But with two capfuls, my bubbles lasted for the duration of my bath. The Sensitive Skin Bubble Delight Bubble Bath does have a light, pretty fragrance, but it is not irritating to my skin, nor does it aggravate my asthma or allergies. It soothes my dry skin and makes me look forward to bathtime, where I soak in the tub to soothe my arthritic legs and hips. All in all, a great idea and product. I will keep buying this!”
“This has always been the favorite go to in our house, and it does not leave a ring around the tub!”
