A friend introduced me to her Avon brochure less than a year ago. I knew very little about Avon, other than the company’s fund raising efforts for breast cancer. I was amazed by the variety of products, and being a frugal gal, decided that, rather than purchase from my friend’s brochure, I would buy from myself at a discount.

Advice was plentiful from other Avon reps and articles published in Avon’s own “Representative Times.” The key seemed to be to buy as many brochures and samples as we could afford. We are urged to purchase demonstration products from “What’s New” to show our customers what will be available in the upcoming months. Avon representatives are known for going door-to-door handing out brochures, or standing in front of public buildings and shopping centers in an attempt to publicize their business. I knew that if this was how Avon was to be sold, it was not something I was capable of doing successfully. My limited budget and time constraints would surely hold me back. There were also my own personal hang-ups about talking to strangers that didn’t seem to mesh with the whole attitude of being an Avon representative. It is, after all, a sales job.

[image-title] by [image-owner]So you are going out on a party with friends but you are worried about your “party makeup”? You remember that last time you went out, your makeup was a disaster? Shouldn’t you worry anymore, because I am about to reveal you the 13 biggest mistakes girls usually do when applying their makeup for the party night. I will also show you the things you should and shouldn’t do!

But it can also mean that nobody notices you. You just don’t stand out from the crowd. Many times I hear complaints from girls that they are never noticed in the club parties. So it is VERY important that you don’t rush with your makeup. Take your time, it’s YOUR party makeup we are talking about here. As a professional makeup artist I never rush, I always take as much time as I need, unless there are of course different circumstances. Even I make mistakes when I’m not focused.

I’m sure you’ve seen the claims. “100% holistic skincare”, or perhaps “100% pure skincare”. Are these claims a big con or is there something worthwhile behind them?

In my view there’s some powerful reasons for todays woman to use pure and holistic skincare. One of the best reasons is that the skincare and cosmetics industry has no requirement to submit their products to a regulatory or government body to show that the ingredients are safe. And so there are many suspect ingredients in modern skincare products. Pure skincare products are safe, and effective.
