Review of Avon True Color Powder Eyeshadow by
zoelou
Advantages: cheap
Disadvantages: have to order
...Avons eye shadow seems to be getting better and better, i used to be a Avon rep, but decided it wasnt for me, i used to love trying all the eye shadows in the samples.
the eye shadows are sooo smooth, it doesnt crinkle, its nice a light and stays on all day.
my favourite colour is definatly lilac whisper, its a lovely colour that goes with almost anything.
subtle whilst looking a bit wild.

The Jury is still out.
Review of Avon Luminous Liquid Eye Colour by
wulise
Advantages: Pretty for wearing out.
Disadvantages: Takes ages to dry.
...I have recently started to try a new eye colour, but boy you do need to be patient and have plenty of time for it to be effective. By this I mean, to provide a glossy smooth look without creasing like some other eye colours. So what is this wonderful product?
Well it is Avon’s Luminous Liquid Eye Colour. It is intended to give the eyes a luxurious looks, which is intended to make you feel great. Actually, it is really easy to apply Avon’s Luminous Liquid Eye Colour to the skin (eyelids) using its brush type wand. Avon calls this Luminous Liquid Eye Colour as a ‘sweep-on brilliance featuring “ Starshine” technology for hi-shine effect.’ Well if you ask me it has a very fine glitter allowing the colour to reflect in all directions on the eyelids.
When you apply Avon’s Luminous Liquid Eye Colour to your eyelids, it feels cool. As the body...

Excellent Eye Cream at a reasonable price
Review of Avon Anew Instant Eye Smoother by
Musicbox
Advantages: Non greasy, easily absorbed
Disadvantages: None!
...Avon Anew Instant Eye Smoother. This Avon eye cream says it will smooth out the fine lines around the eyes, and make the skin feel generally better. A pea sized amount goes a long way, and the result is lovely. It goes into the skin quickly and evenly and leaves the skin feeling velvety with no greasy or sticky residue. This is one cream where you can actually feel exactly where you have applied it! I have been using it for a couple of weeks now and I would not say I look years younger, but I would say that the lines around my eyes do not look so defined. To be honest it leaves your skin feeling so good, I tend to use it around my mouth and cheeks too! I wonder if they do a face cream with the same formula! This one is well worth getting....

Avon A new Instant Eye Smoother
Review of Avon Anew Instant Eye Smoother by
elya147
Advantages: a good moisturizer
Disadvantages: does not reduce any fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and does not make smoother and younger looking your skin, it does not tackle your sagging skin and it does not improves or clarify your skin
...Avon's A new look Instant Eye Smoother. I bought it for an attempt to reduce wrinkles around my eyes. Unfortunately, it doesn’t prove to be reliable and effective skin care product for eyes. As it does not provide all that benefits which you expect when you buy it. The disadvantages of using the given product are that it does not reduce any fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and does not make significantly smoother and younger looking skin, it does not tackle sagging skin and it does not exceptionally improves or clarify your skin around eyes. The only advantage is that you can apply this cream to clean the skin as a good moisturizer. The usual price is £7, which is not fully worth it. Currently I am using anti-wrinkle cream from “Garnier Synergie” and found it quite effective for redicing fine lines and wrinkles...

Miracle or Myth
Review of Avon Anew Instant Eye Smoother by
wulise
Advantages: Moisturises the skin aroud they eyes
Disadvantages: Avon's claims about this cream do not work on my skin
...Avon's Anew Instant Eye Smoother is one of the few Avon products, which does not meet up to its claims, in my view. I find that the cream does nothing but moisturise the sensitive areas around my eyes. The brochure claims that 'fine lines and wrinkles look less immediately after application'. Personally, I did not notice any difference with my skin tone.
A small amount of white cream is best applied with the fingers. Massage the eye area with gentle circles, around the eye socket. Start at the top of the eye at the brow, (by the nose) and use gentle but firm pressure in an outward motion. Bring the fingers gentle round the socket until the reach their starting position. Pause briefly to help drain the sinus. This massage ensures the cream is rubbed into the skin, whilst providing a welcome relief for a few minutes, stress free. Try...

For Big Kids TOO.
Review of Avon Kids Haircare Range by
wulise
Advantages: No sting formula!
Disadvantages: Designed with children in mind!
...the smell.
Avon kids 2in1 super gentle shampoo for thick, curly wavy hair:
This Shampoo smells yummy and is probably my favourite. It smells of fresh raspberry sorbet fragrance. Boy I am getting hungry now!
Avon kids 2in1 super gentle conditioner:
This is a conditioner which smells of the tropics and has a lovely coconut fragrance
This conditioner helps to prepare yet also detangle in one easy step.
The price of £2.49 for 250mls is really reasonable and well worth a try if your child refuses to have their hair washed for fear of getting soap in their eyes. Do not worry if your child does not like the shampoo as Avon provide a full money back guarantee for any reason. So you will not loose out.
**One word of warning**
Do not leave these bottles ineasy reach of children as they may be tempted to drink the shampoo as it smells so good...

Ding Dong Avon Calling
Review of Avon Eye Liner by
chizzie
Advantages: to many to mention
Disadvantages: none that comes to mind
...When anyone used to say Avon to me I always used to conjure up the image of old ladies with pots of face cream and more mature people selling it. Those days are long gone and as an Avon representative myself (I am only 28) I use a good majority of the products and if you walk into my bathroom the only brand name products you will find are toilet roll, toothpaste and sanitary towels, everything else from shampoo, bubble bath, deodrant sprays, perfume and even the towels and toothbrushes have came from Avon.
There is something for everyone in the Avon Book (which is available from your local representative (if you dont know who that is you can call Avon direct on 0845 345 8444) and they will help, or you can buy direct from them online at www.avon.uk.com)
The range of products include make up, fragrances, toiletries, skincare, jewellery...

Liquid eyeliner!
Review of Avon Perfect Wear Liquid Eye Liner Pen by
lucyw88
Advantages: Looks good on eyes
Disadvantages: drys out quickly.
...Well I dont normally have negative things to say about Avon products as I think they are great and very cheap!!
I always wear liquid eye liner as its so easy to apply and looks very sleak.
I have bought this product a few times from Avon. I find the brush part to apply the make up very rough on the eye lid, causing things to get messy! I also find that the product drys out very quickly. There is no sign that the product has ran out, and the brush obviously becomes very rough when it is dry.
However, I think this product looks great when you first buy it, as the brush is very moist and easy to apply. I have bout 2 or 3 of these and not used them for very long as they seem to dry out quickly. I also find this product irritates my eyes quite easily. During the day whilst wearing this product my eyes stream, it comes off eaily so...

Oh no, not another Wrinkle.
Review of Avon Anew Line Eliminator (Line Plumper) by
wulise
Advantages: Can be returned if you do not like it!
Disadvantages: I still have fine lines!
...skin needs retinal the most i.e. forehead, lips, area around the eyes. (Warning: Do NOT use on the eyelids or make contact with the eyes).
**But will it work?**
I have been using this product for two weeks. Quite frankly I have not seen any real improvement in the skin’s lines. The retinal within ‘Anew Line Plumper’ does not work as well as the ‘Anew Retinol Hand Complex’. I have not found an increase in collagen production. My skin, when only using ‘Anew Line Plumper’ does not feel any suppler then I use any other Avon face cream. If truth were told I am rather disappointed with this product. I will continue to use it for the time being but I am really tempted to send my ‘Anew Line Plumper’ back to Avon as per their ‘No Quibble’ pledge.
**Cost**
‘Anew Line Plumper’ costs £8.00
Avon’s ‘Anew Line Plumper’ can be purchased from your...

In my Make Up Bag I put...
Review of Avon Perfect Wear Slim Lip Stylo by
wulise
Advantages: It stays in place for up to eight hours.
Disadvantages: You need to let it dry first!
...With spring in the air and spring-cleaning on the minds of many, have you considered looking at the contents of your make up bag lately? What do you find, old stubs of lipsticks, mascaras that are well over a year old, broken eye pencils and even dirty tissues. YUCK! Time for a good clearout, I am sure you agree.
Now what to put in the clean bag, well Avon Slim Lipstylo is a handy addition to any women’s (or men’s if so inclined) make-up bag. It is a discrete elegant long black tube containing a narrow flash of colour. It is a chic way to bring a shine to the lips without costing a fortune. The Avon Slim Lipstylo allows the wearer to have glamorous lips which look gorgeous all day and night.
The Avon Slim Lipstylo is “Transfer Resistant” according to the Avon brochure. Avon have a new advanced formula. True it can last on the lips...
