My New Found Respect for Bloggers & My Favorite Products

Good morning all! Obviously I have fallen off the face of the earth yet again. I honestly can say I have a new found respect for all bloggers. Life has gotten in the way again and I can't even publish a post a week! Kudos to all of you bloggers who manage to get posts up everyday, and in most cases, multiple times a day!! I don't know how you do it, if you'd like to throw some tips at me I will gladly accept them =)

So we are now on campaign 4 of this year and I am starting to worry about myself here. I don't seem to be making much monetary profit out of my sales being that I just turn around and spend any profit on my own Avon orders! So far, everything I have purchased, I have fallen in love with so I really can't complain. I am so happy I joined the Avon team, I stand by all of their products 100% and would like to share with you a few that I have already tried and now use regularly. 

Those of you that have followed my blog and my very few posts, already know how much I love Glimmersticks!

I only have a few colors at the moment, but we are running a special for any 4 for $10 in our next TWO campaigns! So I know I am about to have 8 new colors in the next month :) This 4 for $10 sale includes:

 --Glimmersticks for eyes, brows, and lips - They glide on so smooth with absolutely no tugging. I have a few of these (blackest black, starry night blue, and emerald) and they are all beautiful! They stay put all day too and I have an awesomely oily face situation by the middle of the day everyday.
--Glimmersticks Liqui-Glide Eye Liner - word on the street is that this pencil liner is produces a liquid like line from an actual felt tipped applicator. I haven't tried these yet, but they will be on my next order, so stay tuned =)
--Avon Glow Eye Liner - I just purchased one of these (Tropic Teal) in my last order and it is absolutely beatiful! For now, they only come in 4 colors and I NEED the other 3 ASAP. They glide on like the glimmersticks and have a very slight shimmer to them.
--Avon Diamonds Eyeliner - I don't have any of these either. These have alot more shimmer in them than the Glow eyeliners. I am not an extra shimmery kind of girl but may put that aside and try a few of these because the colors are gorgeous.
--Chromes Eye Liner - These are great if you want a slightly shimmery, subtle eyeliner. The colors are beautiful and provide a subtle, less dramatic line.


If any of you are like me and have a crazy night time skin regimen that takes up at least a half hour of life, this will help shave off a few minutes and alot of frustration. No matter how thoroughly I use my makeup remover wipes and wash my face, I can't ever seem to get all of my mascara off! I tried makeup removers, but the skin around my eyes is so sensitive that it would always start peeling after continuous use. No matter what, I would wake up every morning with the dreaded racoon/Alice Cooper eyes. And then I tried Avon's Moisture Effective Eye Makeup Remover Lotion.

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE it!!!!! I use this every night before I wash my face and I honeslty can't believe how gentle it is on my skin. A little goes a long way and no more crazy eyes in the morning! Pick a bottle up now and try it for yourself..it's only $1.99!!!


One of the perks of being an Avon Representative is the free samples!! Don't get me wrong, I have to pay for them to give them out to my customers, but it gives me the opportunity to try out alot of products before I start recommending things  I know nothing about. I recently ordered the Avon Clinical Eye Lift Pro Dual Eye System samples and I WILL be ordering a full size in my next order.

Avon description: Our first visible eye lifting treatment with injectable-grade ingredients.Clinical Eye Lift PRO Dual Eye System features: UPPER EYE & BROW BONE GEL: infused with a combination of injectable grade Arginine and PVP; UNDER EYE CREAM: with Derma-Refine Technology. Powerful results for eyes that look lifted like they defy gravity! Dermatologist-tested. Hypo-allergenic. TO USE: Twice daily, apply gel to eyelid and brow bone area; apply cream to under eye area, including upper cheekbone

I have only used this at night because I only have samples at the moment but I feel like I have seen a difference just using it at night. I don't notice as much puffiness in the morning and the skin around my eyes is moisturized and healthy looking. Unfortunately, this isn't on sale this campaign but I don't care, it is well worth the $30 in my opinion..


Unfortunately, I am getting older, as we all do. As much as I hate moisturizing, if I don't want to be a wrinkly mess when I get even older, I have to suck it up and accept my fate. I am a lotion brat, I hate feeling greasy and feeling like I have to wait for my lotion to soak in before I get dressed. Avons Moisture Therapy line is by far my favorite lotion regimen I have EVER tried.

Intensive Healing & Repair Body Lotion - Helps heal extremely dry skin with a fragrance free formula. As I stated earlier, I am an extra oily Greek lady so I do not have extremely dry skin to begin with but this formula is wonderful regardless. It's thick and creamy and absorbs into skin quickly. This lotion is absolutely perfect for these cold winter months and is on sale for only $3!!

Intensive Healing & Repair Hand Cream - Moisturizes extremely dry skin even through hand washings! This generously sized hand cream is unbelievable. Your hands will feel satiny smooth after applying it. It applies thick and white at first but absorbs quickly into skin to leave your hands feeling like you just took them out of a paraffin bath. I only use this hand cream at night before I go to bed. These hand creams go quick when they are on sale, I learned that the hard way when I had to go back to all of my customers and tell them they were already sold out when I submitted my first order. So order yours today, they are only $1.99!!!

The Daily Skin Defense Hand Cream is regularly priced at $5 this campaign but is included in the Buy 1 Get 1 for 99 cents deal! I will post up the other items included in this sale in tomorrow's post (yes, I promise to stay on top of my blogging!!). I am posting this today only because this is my daily hand cream used throughout the day. I actually received this hand cream when the Intensive Healing & Repair Hand Cream sold out in my first campaign as a substitute and I was pleasantly surprised. This lotion isn't as thick and gives you that silky feeling all throughout the day.

I have a ton more products to review for you, but they are not currently available in this campaign. I will save them for another post when they are available for your purchase. For now, order these items with me ASAP before they sell out and I have to make the call of shame to let you know they are no longer available.

Check back tomorrow for our Buy 1 get 1 for 99 cents sale!
