The last day of January!

I can hardly believe that we are already ending the first month of this "new" year ... it just seems to be whizzing by! Or maybe, it just seems that way because I'm getting older, LOL.

Today, I want to share mark.'s current magalog offerings with you. Young-inspired style, colours and accessories, for youngsters of all ages. It's a state of mind, they say!

So, here are some styles to tempt you this time:

Love this style! Just such a "free" look with the vest, reminiscent of the 1960s and 1970s.  By itself, the dress works well for work or play.

 This classic dress in what used to be called a cheongsam style, is another that is perfect for a night out or any occasion where you want to make an entrance, and be remembered!

Winter brings its own trials, staying warm being one of them. Both the cardigan shown here, and the poncho sweater accomplish that in style!

They say that eyes are the window to the soul, and mark. has everything you'll need to create the perfect eye look that suits you. Soft and sultry, bold and glam, soft and natural, it's your choice. 

Foundation, blush and bronzing, is easy with mark.

mark.'s bathtime goodies are awesome. My fave is the lemon sugar, it is such a soft scent and reminiscent of something from my childhood, that I can't quite put my finger on. Kind of a comfort scent, that just exudes happiness, contentment and love. Well, I think so anyway!

mark. hair products are some of my customer's favourites, for beautiful hair that is healthy, soft and silky

One of mark.'s innovations, the hook up, has made carrying make up, a cinch, and keeping so many purses less cluttered!

I LOVE the sheer brilliance top, it is so gorgeous. Very feminine, very classy and great with jeans or as part of a dressy outfit.

And I love this easy flowing style that looks like a 2 piece but is really a simple dress. 

You can get more information about all of these by browsing the mark. brochure on my website here!

Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to leave me a comment, and please share with your friends. Have a great day!

Check out our Valentine's Day Boutique!

Good morning!

It's a sunny day here but a wee bit windy, a good one for staying in and browsing AVON's
Valentine's Day Boutique for gifts for the special people in your life, to show them how much you love and care for them.

My first pick, for the gentleman buying for the love of his life, is this beautiful sterling silver Diamond Love Ring. They say diamonds are a girl's best friend, I think silver is perfect for gifting, so this has the best of both worlds.

The engraved text inside reads "I love you" and the ring contains 31 round 1.20mm diamonds (a total 1/3 carat). Silver is also a less volatile precious metal, than gold, so this ring will hold it's value over the years, and be a perfect heirloom to pass down at a later time. It's $99.99 and comes in sizes 5-10.

I love these simple pendants too, especially the "My heart Belongs To" and I think they are a great gift from parent to a teenage or adult child or grandchild.

For the men (and staying with jewelry, for now) AVON has this sterling silver onyx ring with a 10mm x 8mm onyx accentuated with cubic zircona and set in a very classic style. Again, it comes in sizes 5-10. This ring is priced at $64.99.

If you're like me, you may just like getting a basket from the Dollar Store, and filling it with some lovely goodies, so that your loved one really knows how special they are. Here are a few ideas to pop in a basket

Our latest AVON Senses offering -

And, we have lots of other cute pieces too!

You can check out the Valentine's Day Boutique at the link at the beginning of this post, to see everything AVON has to offer, including special fragrances and fashions!

Have a lovely day!

What a roller coaster!

Good morning, my friends! Hard to think we are in the final week of January ALREADY! This month has gone by in a flash, and has been a rough one for me as I have been battling health issues, resulting in my having neglected my business badly whilst doing so. I am hoping today to remedy that somewhat by giving you some insight into our latest brochure, and just some of the beautiful things we have, this campaign.

https://www.avon.com/brochure?s=shopbroch&c=reppwp&repid=6405628&setlang=en 

Simply click on the above link to be taken to my site, where you can browse all the brochures, currently available.

For starters, in Campaign 4, AVON introduces Nutra Effects, perfect for sensitive skin and made from natural ingredients including active seed complex. Chia seeds have been shown to benefit all skin types, and are the basis of this new formula.

As you can see, there are specific formulae for the different skin types, and this range is economically priced, with an introductory special of $14.99 each.

A new favourite with my fashion customers is this comfortable wrap-around red dress

which pairs beautifully with these black lace up sandals for a dressy look that is equally at home for a dinner date,going to church, or going out for a night out with friends. Machine washable and a light tumble dry, make it really easy to care for! 

Page 38-39 offers a "look" for you to try, with golden-brown eyeshadow and a red lipstick. Protect your lips while looking glam, as this lipstick has a Vitamin E formula. The cream-gel eyeshadow is long lasting so you won't need touch ups!

Finish "the look" with AVON's Mega Effects Mascara, with Keratin, for length and dramatic effect! It's on sale for $7.99 ... but on the same page (pages 44-45) check out AVON's other mascaras for the looks and benefits you are looking for!

Pages 46-51 offer a great chance to save money and stock up on eyeshadows and lipsticks, as they are Buy 1 Get 1 for $1.99! An awesome deal!

For AVON's Anew lovers, pages 66-67 have a 2 for $40 special on the Ultimate and Platinum ranges, whilst page 68 sees Reversalist at 2 for $36, and on page 69, Vitale is 2 for $34. One of my personal favourites, the Anew Power Serum, is on sale for $22.99 on page 71. I love how it diminishes my fine lines and wrinkles (yep, being 62 now, they are appearing!) and leaves my skin feeling smooth and soft.

This edition of our AVON Living Magalog, is all about getting organized and has some great ideas for doing so, and cute decor items.

About the cute decor ... LOL. I bought my great grandkids, Daniel and Sami, the Mickey and Minnie zippies (Sami is too young for hers right now but Daniel was soooo excited!)

It's a whole new concept in bedmaking! Each fits around a twin mattress. I liked that they are easy care, which is always important when you have kids! Just wash in the machine and tumble dry!

I treated myself to these dinner service holders just before Christmas, and I love them, they are so convenient and keep everything together neatly!

My next treat will be the cutlery drawer organizer. Little by little I AM decluttering! 

There are some great ideas for decluttering closet space and entrances and walk-throughs, as well as making use of wall spaces too!

I just love so much in this Living Magalog! I'm glad I sell AVON as the discount really comes in handy when I want so much!

Have a great day everyone. Please share this with your friends and feel free to leave me a comment below. Thanks!

Busy Start to the New Year and Getting Back on Track

Good morning my friends. Well, it's been a busy start to the New Year, but I'm finally starting to get life "back" to normal. Getting snow, on the weekend, gave some people joy (we don't see it here in SC as often as our neighbours farther North)but it made the roads treacherous for a few days, as it melted and then became ice on refreezing, overnight. It's almost gone now though, and with warmer climes coming tomorrow and Friday, there shouldn't be any white remnants left by this weekend.

My darlin' hubby mailed off a package to one of my team members, who will be doing an event later this month. She's excited! I just got a load of samples together for her so she has plenty to hand out/discuss etc. I miss doing events, but my health no longer allows me to.

I rarely push my business right after Christmas, I always figure people have spent out, and are wanting a break from my advertising. This week, I have begun my selling again. 

I am trying to push more of my sales online, as the physical effort required to sort and bag my customer's orders, now does take a toll on me and usually leaves me in pain for a couple of days afterwards. It's amazing how we take so much for granted until it's gone.

Be blessed, my friends. Have a wonderful day. Stay warm, wherever you are ... and BUY AVON!!!! LOL

Happy New Year!

Wishing you an awesome New Year

and hoping you achieve all your

goals and dreams

in 2017

As I look back over 2016, I am very proud of accomplishing President's Club with AVON again, and of the other goals reached over the year.

I hope you all also look back, and see successes. And here's to more in the upcoming year!
