Beauty Product Review - Avon

I don't normally do a lot of reviews, but I got some Avon for Christmas and thought I would write about it.  My SMIL and her mom use Avon skincare and swear by it.  She had told me about it, but I hadn't taken the plunge yet.  I have a hard time buying lotion for $10 at Target, let alone $30.  So she got me the eye cream below and travel sizes of the day and night lotion for Christmas.


I actually like this stuff.  I have been using the eye cream (both AM and PM) regularly.  It goes on smoothly and actually has a bit of a cooling sensation to it.  I will say that once or twice the PM version has iritated my sometimes sensitive skin.  But I go through this every once in awhile even with the stuff I have been using (Cetaphil).  (Probably ought to go get a GOOD facial and figure out my skin type so I can treat it accordingly!).  The day cream is wonderful.  Goes on smoothly and soaks right in.  My face feels soft and not greasy.  I will be buying a regular size version of this.  I like the night cream as well.  I have been alternating it with the Biore that I have been using so I have more of it left.  I will order some later when I run out of Biore.

I went online to check out the prices and to see what deals they have and noticed they also have a gel cleanser and rinse off treatment.  They also have a deal buy one get the second at $5...not too bad if you ask me....I was thinking I would try the cleanser and get the full size lotion!  (but considering the gel is $12 and the treatment is $25, it might make more sense to get the lotion and the treatment, save the gel for next time).

Anyone out there use Avon skincare products?  Thoughts???  I'll let you know what I decide to buy and how it works.

(NOTE:  My skin still looks like a teenager's....I cannot get rid of the breakouts on my chin...any ideas????)

Chin breakouts are generally caused my horomones. Not a damn thing you can do about them! If you notice that you're touching your chin a lot, try to stop, but that's the only advice I have. :(

I have used avon lotions and face powder for years. I love Anew! I use rejuvenate now and love it. My mom used their version that has the black and gold container (not sure of the name) and people noticed almost immediately!
