Crackle Nails Are Here!

I know, you’re thinking, “What in the world does that mean?” What it means is that Avon now has the hottest trend in nail polishing.
It’s called Mosaic Effects and it’s currently on sale for $3.99. If you don’t know, it’s sort of like a top coat of polish that you put over a colorful base coat and it gives you this really cool effect. I can’t wait to try it out.

There are also some excellent bargains to be had in the ">Extra Lasting and Smooth Mineral lines. Right now you can buy particular products of either brand and get another one (of equal or lesser value) half off. You can mix and match to your heart’s content. Also in the “excellent value” category is the Glazeware Lip Gloss. Those are 2 for $5. I am not a lip gloss person but I really like Glazeware. I wrote about it here.

OK, I’m a little embarrassed about this next part but I’ll tell you anyway. I have several customers who swear by Glimmersticks Eyeliner and up until now I have never tried it. But let me tell you, that was a mistake! This eyeliner is fabulous. It stays in place all day and even all night when you’ve been too lazy, um I mean busy, to remove your eye makeup. Seriously, I looked in the mirror the next morning and the eyeliner was perfect. I won’t go into what the rest of my eye makeup looked like. There could be children reading. Regular Glimmersticks Eyeliner is on sale right now for $2.99, regularly $7.

And now that the kids are finally back in school it’s time to think about – what else? – Christmas! It’s just around the corner you know and Avon is the place to find stocking stuffers galore. Right now Avon Naturals Shower Gels (5 oz. each) are on sale for (can you believe it??) $1.25 each. Heck, for that price plus the Avon Care Silicone Glove Hand Cream for 99 cents, you can afford to bring gifts for the whole office or for all your kids’ teachers this holiday season.

That’s all I have for today. You can find any of these items plus tons more excellent products in my e-store.

Until next time…

What. A. Deal!

I’m a bargain shopper. If I get a killer deal on something I want to spread the word. “This blouse? $4 at Old Navy. Oh, those shorts? Got two for $12.”

Well, I was perusing my current Avon book and came across this deal that I absolutely HAVE to share. I do. Or I’ll burst!

Avon’s Anew Solar Advance sunscreen is on sale in this book – buy 1 get 2 free. Yes! Not 1 free; 2 free. That’s a bargain especially if you live in a state where sunscreen is necessary all year long.

I posted about the Solar Advance when it first came out here, and some more here. But the gist of it is that I have found that this product doesn’t just protect you from the sun. It really does work to repair your skin. It’s quite remarkable, really.

When it first came out earlier this year, there was the one for your face with SPF 45 and one for your body with SPF 30. And Avon now offers a mist version with SPF 28.

You can shop for that bargain and a lot of others at my e-store.

Oh, and if your house is like my house, the kids are counting down the days until you bring out the Halloween decorations. Well, this catalog also has some super cute home decorations like "We Got the Treats Pete". And if you, or your daughter, like to trend your jewelry with the holidays then you don’t want to miss these earrings

or this watch

And I’m thinking my son would kill for this spider web umbrella.

Until next time…
