I brought the Shea lip balm about two months ago. It was on offer at the time, with one of those BOGOF deals. BOGOF? I hear you cry? It stands for Buy One Get One Free. Clever eh? ... ...so what? The Avon range that it comes from is Planet Spa, which is a relatively new range. They keep adding products to this range, so there are always new products and offers around. Planet Spa not only has the African Shea products, but also the Olive Oil, White Tea and South Pacific ranges. I haven’t tried any of these yet, as I am addicted to the African Shea range.
The Planet Spa range is currently on offer, so checkout www.avonshop.co.uk to ...

...and had not used any Avon products since being quite young.
For anyone who has not heard of this product before then please let me explain. African Shea Butter body scrub is an all over body exfoliate and is from the Planet Spa range by Avon.
There are currently four product lines within this range which are:
African Shea - To soften and nourish.
Dead Sea - To detoxify and purify.
Mediterranean Olive Oil - To condition and refresh.
Arizona ... ...really pleased to received the body scrub as I was running out of my normal exfoliator.I was also really keen to try out a new brand as my usual brand had been leaving my skin feeling quite dry. My first impressions of the product were really good before I even started using it I was won over by the packaging.
The body scrub comes in a clear plastic 150ml bottle, with a plastic flip top lid. It has the Planet Spa logo stretching across the front ...

Advantages: long lasting, leaves skin soft and smooth Disadvantages: expensive
...be careful but remember that Avon have a no quibble money back guarantee so you can get your money back.
I hope reading this makes you want to go and try some - it would make a great present for anyone as part of a gift set (hopefully my partner will read this and take the hint).
Avon's website can be found at www.avon.uk.com where further items in the range can be found.

...if you purchase it when Avon have got it on one of their specials.
At the moment you can 'buy one get one free' for £4.50 (the normal price of one).
I think it is excellent value for such a good product!
Now down to the 'nitty gritty'!

Isopropyl Myristate
Alchohol (I know what that is!)

...it.
Flicking throught the Avon book, the Planet Spa Energising Face and Body Mist jumped out at me. It contains White Tea, believed to moisturise the skin. In fact, according to the label, it contains collagen and elastin to moisturise and tone skin. Wahey, I'll have some of that then.
The packaging of this product is nothing special. It comes in a clear plastic bottle much with a label displaying some trees (i think). Its not a memorable package, ... ...best way of ordering from Avon is through a local agent, but if this is a problem you can use any following options to make an order, make an enquiry, or order a brochure:-

...body lotion for my après bath sessions. It was then that someone pointed me in the direct of the Avon book which I'd steadfastly ignored at work and gushingly recommended the PlanetSpaRange. After browsing the book and noting that they still sold the perfume that Nan bought every Christmas without fail I balked at the idea but after being informed of their 100% satisfaction guarantee or your money back offer I decided to throw caution to the wind and parted company with the best part of £20 on a variety of PlanetSpabath goodies.
Avon introduced the PlanetSpaRange back in 2003, giving it a minimalist packaging policy, hyping up the liberal use of Shea Butter, Sea Salt and Olive oil gained from foreign climes to the point you actually think you are buying products as "ethical" as the Body Shop's. Avon was the first cosmetic...

Dr Who - The Web Planet (1965)
When thinking of 1960s Doctor Who many consider it a golden era for the show. However, as my rating suggests, the series was just as fallible then as it is in it's later and current incarnations.
