What's good from Avon?

I've got their latest book (much thicker than I remember) and it's Years since I've ordered from them. I would appreciate recommendations of anything you think is awesome from Avon,

The dry oil body spray is life changing! Also works really great as an insect repellent!

Flymetothetoon · 15/01/2020 20:48

Thank you Billyeyelash I'll look out for that when I have a good peruse tomorrow!

Some of the fragrances are amazing. Try Avon Eve Truth Imari or Far Away Glamour. I also like the room sprays as they don't irritate my chest like other air fresheners do. YY to the skin so soft dry oil spray but make sure you get Original not the pink one.

Sorry, Eve Truth and Imari are two separate perfumes.

The loose mineral powder foundation is by far the best powder I've ever used !

Flymetothetoon · 15/01/2020 21:03

That's interesting butterflykiss00 I love Lily Lolo mineral powder foundation is the Avon one better?

@Flymetothetoon definitely! It's also buildable coverage I love it🤦🏼‍♀️!

This overnight mask is fab. Use it over usual night cream. Really works.

I hadn't had anything from Avon in years but tried a few of the Anew items last month and this was definitely the best buy.

Here's my blog post on all the current Avon perfumes. (Well it's the 2019 guide and not much has changed yet!)

Just don’t buy the disgusting Skin so Soft spray which they now try to claim is an insect repellent. It doesn’t repel any sort of insects and it smells absolutely foul.

Get a proper insect repellent, they actually work and don’t make you smell completely revolting!

MissBattleaxe · 16/01/2020 14:53

I quite like the smell of it! My Mum used it when she lived abroad and it kept the mozzies at bay.

NiktheGreek · 16/01/2020 14:56

I've used every kind of insect repellent going. Avon Skin so Soft is the only thing that works on me, and it smells lovely. I normally get eaten alive but not anymore.

isthismylifenow · 16/01/2020 14:59

I live in SA and they have discontinued that Skin so Soft and replaced it with some awful smelling stuff. Haven't even rebranded the anti mozzie one, we just cant get it any more.

The glimmerstick eyeliner is the best. I only use Avon, all the others give me panda eyes if I line my top lid. This one stays where its put until every other bloody brand.

Primotomb · 16/01/2020 20:58

Definitely the glimmerstick eyeliner!!! I stocked up yesterday on offer - down to £2.50 from £6. The Saturn grey colour is so much more flattering than black on me. Free postage if you spend £15 online.
