Keuses

Ek het dit eers vir ‘n ruk oorweeg om my blog se naam te verander, indien dit moontlik was om dit te doen, ek het dit nog nooit voorheen probeer doen nie, so dit sou ‘n eerste vir my wees Ek het eventueel besluit om dit nie te doen nie, maar in die vervolg meer Afrikaans as Engels te skryf.
Alhoewel ek amper net Engels lees, is dit steeds moeilik om myself uit te druk in die rooi taal, so van nou af, sal dit in Afrikaans gedoen word.
Ek gaan steeds dan en wan skryf as ek ‘n juweel vind wat ek beskou as ‘n winskoop, maar aangesien ek self nou Avon verkoop en ook ‘n span onder my het, gaan ek meer daaroor skryf. Die rede daarvoor is heel eenvoudig, ek kan nie iets verkoop wat ek nie self gebruik nie, met die gevolg toets ek meeste Avon produkte soos wat dit op die mark kom.
Ja, ek bevoordeel die produk en ek weet dit, maar dis omdat dit regtig ‘n fantastiese produk is. Ek kan nie dink aan iets waarmee ek so ontevrede was dat ek my geld wou terughĂȘ nie (terloops Avon het ‘n geld-terug waarborg op al hulle produkte).
Laaste, maar nie in die minste nie, indien jy tot dusver nog nie ‘n Avon konsultant het wat jou gereeld diens nie, kry vir jou een. Februarie se brosjure is die moeite werd.

Far Away Exotic by Avon

This month Avon is launching a new variety of the very popular Far Away in South Africa. The newest member of this family is Far Away Exotic.

‘The scent is a mixture of chai spice and lavish saffron rose entwined with the exotic richness of ambered musk.’

Launch price of R169.00. Contact your Avon representative today for a sample of this stunning fragrance. It is definitely worth a try.

WOW Nail Polish

In December I bought myself a nail polish manufactured by this company and what a pleasant surprise. I tried WOW because the prices of nail enamels shot through the roof. Even Charlie nail enamels now cost R54.95! Being one of those people who changes nail enamel every second day (I can’t stand chipped nail polish) I am NOT going to fork out that much money for it.
WOW cost R22.00 rand a bottle. Although you have to apply almost three coats of polish to get a decent, solid look, it is still worth it. It dries quickly and despite it’s price, it doesn’t chip off the very next day. I was able to wear it a second day without touching up or having to remove it.
WOW is not tested on animals. It is available from The Perfume Gallery. Worth a try.

Avon Night Gold Emulsion

In a previous post I quickly mentioned this particular product but after having used it for a while, I feel it needed a post of it’s own. So, here goes.
Night Gold Emulsion is a product in the Anew 45+. Due to having adored the sun when I was younger, I have to admit that sun damage is a thing that I consider when buying a product. I also consider whether or not the product may be able to halt the effects of sun damage. Therefore I decided to give this product a chance. My mother, who can never really find a product which gives her enough moisture, was highly impressed with it as well.
So, let’s start. I have a skin which scars easily. Unfortunately, I am one of those people dermatologists hate because I can not keep my fingers out of my pimples. The effects are normally disastrous since I end up with purple marks on my face.
A few months ago, I had the worst problems with my skin you can imagine. I got really ugly zits behind my ears and all around my jaw line. I was frantically searching the internet, which in the end only confirmed what I already knew, stress.
While having this problem, I was using the Gold Emulsion, and the zits cleared up so much faster than it normally would have, it also heals the wounds faster than if it was just left to heal by itself. I was left with no scars once the problem cleared up.
So, Gold Emulsion is something I will never be without again. It is a little pricy when not on special, but wait until it is, and buy yourself a pot of this cream/gel. It lasts for approximately three months, so you won’t run out before it goes on special again.
A word of advice though: I normally slather a lot of cream on my face, I know, it won’t make a difference;) But with Gold Emulsion you can only use a tiny amount, because it easily burns your skin if you use too much. With this product I can really say: Less is more!

Normal Price: R360.00
