Bella’s Beauty Boosters: October Edition

October 8, 2009 by admin  
Filed under Promotions

Bella’s AVON giveaway got such a great response from The Not-So-Blog readers, that I decided to ask Bella to share monthly “Beauty Boosters” so we can all keep up with the great products she has to offer.  So with no further ado, I introduce:

Bella’s Beauty Boosters!

avontote

October, as everyone knows, is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  By the end of 2009, Avon will have raised over $700 MILLION dollars for the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade! WOW! With all of the awareness out there, lets just hope a cure is found soon. This gorgeous tote, designed exclusively for Avon by Merimekko, holds just about everything you need for just $10, and 100% of the net proceeds are donated to the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade. You can look great AND make a difference!

 It may not be cool yet here in Arizona, but autumn brings out the dry-season, when my skin is just THIRSTY. My lips and hands start to feel tight and itchy, so I need a moisturizer that really sinks in quick. I’ll reach for mark. Free For All body lotion, which is fragrance free, non-greasy and contains antioxident rich ingredients like acai, pomegranate and goji, plus shea and murumuru seed butters. I treat my lips to “Kiss Dry Goodbye”, a great Hook Up lip smoother, with Amazon White Cocoa extract for moisture, and my lips are instantly kissably soft.  And right now, with any $15 mark. skincare purchase, you can get a free Talk To The Hand, a fast absorbing, non-greasy hand cream!

mark

This is my new favorite fragrance. mark. Sophistique is simply delightful, and my hubby Matt just loves it (always a bonus!) This gorgeous scent is a little rich, a little sweet, and a lot irresistible! Its an unexpected blend of sheer lotus, basmati rice, and golden amber, finished with orange blossom and ginger wood, and is THE hot fragrance for fall. Its not so rich and sweet as some Autumn scents typically are, but not so springy-floral that it seems out of place in your winter wardrobe. The sheer shimmer body creme is a great way to layer the fragrance to help it last longer. Fragrance rises, so for the longest lasting scent, spray or smooth your scent on from feet to shoulders. If you apply it only to the neck, it will eventually rise and disappear!

Be on the look out in November for more great tips from Bella!

Labor of Love Giveaway #5: Butler Bag from AVON

September 4, 2009 by admin  
Filed under Giveaways

With the birth of my second daughter, I realized that only one thing would get me through the day….ORGANIZATION!  If everything was easy to find and at my fingertips, the day ran much smoother which made for a very happy Mommy.  For the Labor of Love giveaway #5, I am featuring an item that will help you do just that while pampering the new Mom.  The incredible Butler Basics Organizer Bag from AVON will help the new Mom stay organized while showing off her style!

butlerbigA good friend of mine, Isabella, has been selling AVON products with her husband since  2005 and quickly became a huge success!  Her knowledge of the product and fast, friendly customer service has placed her in the Top 100 AVON Representatives every year since 2007.

Because Bella knows the AVON line like the back of her hand, I asked her to share a few of her favorites!

Bella’s Beauty Boosters
Smooth Minerals Lipstick. Enhanced with Shea butter and conditioning oils, has SPF 15, is super gentle and feels just DIVINE on. It goes on so silky smooth and has a nice staying power! Apply one coat for a nice, sheer look. Apply two coats for a more intense color. My favorite is “Rumberry”. Its the perfect shade, not to pink, not too purple, not too red!

Anew Reversalist Night Renewal Cream and Serum - I have them both because they work best together. I’ve been using these now for a month and have noticed that old acne scars are much lighter, it isn’t too heavy for my acne-prone skin AND the two products have made my skin look so fresh and new and simply GLOWING.  The exclusive Activinol technology helps to reactivate the skin’s natural repairing process to reverse aging!

Skin So Soft Signature Silk Ultra Moisturizing Body Lotion (whew, that’s a long name!) – LOVE LOVE LOVE this body lotion. Its thick and rich and softly scented. My skin feels like absolute SILK after using this!!
