I’m having some 64% alcohol sanitiser delivered tomorrow by The Avon Lady . I didn’t know it was still going until recently.

Does anyone recommend anything from them ? I’m bound to be left a catalogue .

The last thing I had from them was a peach soap on a roap.

If you wear eye make I can recommend the Glimmersticks -£3 at the moment. These are eye liner pencils, they do them for brows and lips too. I did notice on the web site a mascara that looks suspiciously like a Benefit one but less £ obvs. It is £9- Euphoric mascara.

People rate their skincare. I have the Anew Gold peel off mask but the whole Anew range I think it ok. Their tinted mosturiser is good - True Nutra effects radiance £5.

I cannot recommend any of their perfumes apart from the Soft Musk one. Everything else is sweet and watery - though you might like that!
Their hand creams seem ok and the body stuff. Nice shower gels etc.

The Planet Spa stuff is pretty good. They do sun care and hair care as well. Years ago I got some bras from them. Very good they were too.

The Mark range is I think aimed at youngsters but don't let that put you off I have some Mark highlighters and I am 60! I have the mark eye brow pencil too - one of those that comes out slanted if you see what I mean.

Hope this helps!

They do a Vitamin C range and a vegan one as well.

Skin so soft oil spray. Is heaven!! And IF we ever get to go on holiday again it's a brilliant mosquito repellent.

Sorry I am assuming you are in the UK! I have just seen what time you wrote this. You are either somewhere else/have a little baby/not a great sleeper (;like me) or all three???

Deathraystare thanks for that list - quite excited at the prospect now ! Omg , what has lockdown done to me.

Always awake by 5am... hang over from years of baby/ toddler/ pre- schooler / schooler.... not sleeping 💤

Peanut The oil sounds lovely thank you.

The glimmersticks eyebrow pencil, eye liner and lip liner are all fab.

The lip conditioner (looks like a nude lipstick, sorry cant remember the name) is lovely.

The matte lipsticks are excellent. Colour lasts and there are plenty of fashionable and classic colours to choose from.

The loose mineral foundation is good and is similar to bare minerals (I've had both and there wasnt much difference, if any at all).

The perfumes I love are: far and away infinity (which smells heavenly) and the traditional far and away.
There is also a lovely smelling one called attraction.
I've tried most of the perfumes from avon and they would he my top 3.
I have noticed that whenever I have worn avon perfume I've had people compliment/ask what it is from, this never seems to happen when I wear more expensive perfumes.
Smile

Hope that helped.
