Avon-any good, or utter tosh

Every now and then the avon book lands on my mat, ive never ordered anything-just put it back in the porch and a few days latter its gone. This time however having had a crappola week I decided to order some bits.
I went with:

a glimmer stick for eyes
some cream to powder foundation
a saty put with sparkle lippy
some mascara
and that eye shadow in a pot stuff that is supposed to last.
Anyway am now worrying that im a right willy wonka for doing this as have no idea what the stuff is like.

Is it any good?

I'm an Avon lady. A lot of their stuff is great, very good value for the money. And if you don't like it, you can return it - even if it's half used! So keep hold of your Avon lady's number just in case.
Lots of my customers love the gimmer sticks. I like the mascara.
And I recommend the Planet Spa Japanese Saki and Rice hand cream!!

I'm not an avon lady, but am a fan. Good value for money, but I don';t buy much of the make up - but the mascara is very good. the face creams, particularly the anew stuff is VERY good

I love the glimmer sticks but they seem to break very easily.
I also love their nascara.

I never buy it for myself but my mum sends me bits as she always buys too much from them.

Glimmer sticks good. If you retract them after tyou use them, theyt don;t break

Their mineral make up isn;t half bad either

In fact I don;t think I have bought much from them that's shit

Avon are actually pretty good...they love it in the States

The liquid eyeliner pen is fab. It's the best and easiest to use eyeliner I have ever bought. I've used it for a number of years now.
