AVON COSMETICS - SUMMER "MUST HAVE'S"

2012 LUST LIST: this summer's hit products

Sizzle! These gorgeous essentials will turn your summer around

Beauty editors are talking about these must-haves from Avon

Sexy fragrance...

For fragrant mornings...

Experts suggest swapping your fragrance at lunchtime... and creating a fragrance 'wardrobe' with a fresh scent to start the day and a more sensual scent after midday. We think Avon's 015 fragrance is perfect for the first spritz of the day. Bursts of citrus and seductive jasmine make this EDT our top pick for first thing after your shower.

For cool afternoons...

You'll probably have heard the incredible beauty buzz surrounding superstar Fergie's new fragrance, Viva by Fergie. This sexy spritz combines notes traditionally found in men's fragrance + feminine florals for a completely unexpected and seductive effect. Wowzer... watch out people! Apply to well moisturised skin for a longer-lasting effect.

For long summer evenings...

Classic fragrance Little Black Dress has oriental notes and rich woody tones that linger beautifully. You'll also love the lasting sensuality of Far Away Exotic.

Shimmering beauty...

For pale skin that needs a little lift...

Even if you didn't get a tan over Jubilee weekend... get yourself summer skin with a sweep of Avon’s Glow Shake and Go Bronzer. Apply where the sun naturally hits the skin: above your brows, chin, nose and cheekbones. Then apply cream blush to the 'apples' of your cheeks.

For extra-sensitive spots...

Make sure that lips and eyes are shielded from the sun with ANEW’s Solar Advance Eye and Lip Sunscreen SPF 30.

For milk-bottle legs...

Is it us, or do your legs feel extra-pale this summer, too? Avon’s Sun Magic Tan Moisturising Self Tan Lotion is the perfect boost... a quick fix for pale pins.

And for a splash of full summer colour...

Forget nude nails...

Avon’s oh-so-hot new summer shades in Avon's Nailwear Pro+ collection.

AVON's exclusive new fragrance - Viva by Fergie

Viva by Fergie (exclusive to AVON Cosmetics): meet the perfumer 

Introducing Laurent Le Guernec, creator of Fergie's amazing new fragrance

Find out more about the groundbreaking ingredients behind NEW Viva by Fergie

Where do you start when you're creating a brand new fragrance?My inspiration for Viva by Fergie stems from my love of fougeres – the fresh yet sexy 'scent family' that's traditionally reserved for men.

Did you have a 'Eureka' moment in the whole process? I wanted to construct a feminine twist on traditional male fragrance for Fergie. I began by imagining her, ever so confident, wearing her husband’s crisp, white, button-down shirt. I wanted to capture this sexy - almost unexpected appeal in a bottle. This was the exact moment that inspired me.

What about the ingredients? There seem to be so many layers here in a single spritz? Well, what can I say? Brilliantly fresh, rich top notes marry a heart of black lavender, paper whites and hydroponic star orchid. The luxurious backdrop soothes and comforts with creamy-soft suede, cashmere woods and intimate skin musk, an addictive, fascinating essence that represents a deeply sensual and wildly confident woman.

What is it that makes you proud of this new fragrance? It has created a new interpretation of freshness in women’s florals. Uncharted territory for Avon fine fragrance! Playing with bold ingredients and incorporating Fergie’s edgy, fearless beauty and femininity allowed me to explore limitless ideas.

AVON TOP 20 SALES LEADERS TRIP TO MALTA

AVON TOP 20 SALES LEADERS TRIP TO MALTA

Every year, AVON Cosmetics run a trip for the Top 20 Sales Leaders in the country.  This year the prize was a trip to Malta.  

Our business has been progressive enough to qualify for the last 5 years.

• In 2008 we had the privilege of going to Prague with AVON Cosmetics
• In 2009 we had an amazing time in Palma in Majorca, again with AVON Cosmetics
• In 2010 AVON again did us proud and took us to Monte Carlo (what a trip that was!)
• In 2011 we had another amazing trip to Berlin - this was very cultural indeed - thank you AVON!
• In 2012 we have just got back from another amazing time in Malta - this was the best Top 20 trip yet!

Some of the great things we did with AVON this year in Malta are below:

Firstly, we stayed at the Hilton Hotel at St Julian's Bay which is arguably one of the best hotels on the whole Island!  It is in fact the tallest!  Our room and view were spectacular.

On the Friday we enjoyed a welcome drink and fantastic views of the Marina from the terrace of the hotel.  After the welcome drink we were taken to the Water's Edge to the Paranga Beach Club where we enjoyed a delicious BBQ and an evening of "chill-out" music and entertainment.

On Saturday after breakfast we were whisked via Power Boat across the sea to the Island of Gozo.  There, we split into teams and were given keys to Jeeps where we were then given instructions for a "Treasure Hunt" across the Island of Gozo.  Brilliant fun! And a great way to see the Island.  After the Treasure Hunt lunch was served at the II Kartell Restaurant overlooking the sea.  Then back in the powers and whisked back to Malta where we relaxed for a few hours at the pool at the Hilton Hotel.

At 7pm we met in reception and were taken by coach to the medieval village of Qormi where were greeted by the local band who lead us to the Razzett L-Antik Restaurant  where we enjoyed a delicious meal and a traditional Maltese evening of food and entertainment.  On the way back to the hotel we stopped off at a local nightclub for more dancing and entertainment.

On Sunday, after another delicious breakfast, we were taken from the Hilton Hotel to the capital of the Island, Valletta where we engaged in a walking tour of this fascinating city.  Wonderful sights, wonderful buildings and wonderful views along with fantastic gardens and monuments. 

At 12.45pm we relaxed over lunch at the chic Trabuxu Bistro.  This was the best pasta dish we had ever tasted (and this was just starters but should have been a main!).  We were so full after this meal as it was all so enjoyable and the pasta of course was made even more enjoyable by the flowing red wine.

Then at 2.45pm we travelled back to the Hilton Hotel to cool down in the luxury swimming pool in the 30 degree sunshine.

At 6.45 we had to be ready at the Hotel Reception in our "formal attire" only to be greeted by 8 luxury classic vintage cars - Rolls Royces, Cadillacs, an Armstrong Siddeley to be whisked away by classic vintage car to the Palazzo Parisio, an 18th Century palace located in the heart of the picturesque Naxxar.  It is a treasure trove of delight and still, amazingly, a beloved family home which is renowned for its cuisine.

On arrival, we were guided through the palace gardens where we were greeted with champagne and a wonderful choir situated across the garden pond, some 70 yards away.  What a fantastic start to the evening.

After the reception we were then taken into the Parisio for our gala dinner where we enjoyed exquisite surroundings and exquisite cuisine.  The menu was:

Truffle scented Cream of Celeriac served with crispy Pancetta & drizzled with aromatic Herb Oil

~~~~~~~~

Chicken breast wrapped in Parma Ham with Gratin Dauphinois Potatoes & Creamed Spinach

~~~~~~~~

Apple Crumble with Vanilla sauce

~~~~~~~~

Coffee & Tea & Petits Fours

These AVON trips are definitely not to be missed.

After our wonderful meal we were then transported by coach to the Hilton hotel's VIP nightclub where AVON had reserved a section for us.  The views were spectacular across St Julian's Bay.  We enjoyed fantastic company and music and "refreshments".

Thanks again AVON Cosmetics for a wonderful Top 20 Sales Leader trip to Malta.

AVON in the News - From Rags to Riches

Rags to Riches

May 27 2012 By Gail Shortland, Sunday People Magazine

Nadine Rowlands, 43, has a life she had only dreamed of...

Every night when I got home from my job as a legal secretary, I felt the same.

Is life always going to be this hard? I sighed.

With money so tight, I shopped in a local discount supermarket that sold out-of-date tinned food.

My husband Wayne, 52, sat down to a dinner of cereal with a pile

of bills and throbbing headaches. How would we ever make ends meet?

It was 2005 and wed been living in rented accommodation but our landlord had sold up, so wed just bought a house with a sky high rate mortgage.

Wayne, now 52, worked as an engineer all hours but still our wages barely covered our outgoings.

Im sick of shopping in charity shops, I moaned.

But we had no choice. One month we had just 35 left to spend.

Then one day, an old friend suggested Avon, the beauty company as a great opportunity for me.

Ive tried that before, I said.

Id been a seller a few years earlier, delivering brochures and promoting products but my friend told me about the position of Sales Leader.

For a small administration fee, you can build and co-ordinate a network of Avon representatives.

This is a turning point, I thought, excitedly.

My mind was made up.

When Wayne came back to our home in Manchester after a long shift, I told him. Ive decided to work for Avon! I announced.

He listened to my plans and agreed it was a chance to stop the daily grind.

Go for it, he encouraged.

At first, I worked around my job. I recruited Wayne and we gave everything we had. We advertised, walked the streets really pushed our business.

And pretty soon, it started to pay off.

In year one, we earned 8,000. After 14 years without a holiday abroad, we rewarded ourselves with a two week break to Lanzarote.

That rose to 30,000 in year two. And after three years, Wayne gave up his day job.

Today, we both work full-time for Avon as Executive Sales Leaders with a joint team of over 2000 people.

At the end of 2011, we took home 110,000 and turned over s4.5million. Incredible!

Wayne drives a Jaguar and were taking three weeks off in Portugal later this year.

We're proof that anyone can make it big with hard work and determination.
