If you've seen my review of the perfume, you know I love the scent! I like to use the powder as a compliment to the perfume, but it's great alone, too, and it does leave your skin with a subtle shimmer...not a guady glitter. And, the great thing about Avon is that, if you think the price is a little steep, all you have to do is be patient...it'll eventually go on sale!

I found these to be a little too strong for my skin. It burned and tightened my skin, and, just a few minutes after using them, my face starts working overtime to produce more oil to replace what I washed off. If I use them at night, I wake up with super-oily skin. If I use it in the morning, then put on make-up, my skin gets flakey. I do believe that it gets the dirt out, but for me that doesn't outweigh the "side effects".

Love these things! When they first came out it seemed so weird...Like putting a piece of plastic in your mouth and having it melt away! The uniqueness is definitely what drew me in. But the bonus is that they work. No, not as well as actually using mouthwash, but great on the go. It doesn't last all day, but it's not meant to. If you need something quick, but strong, this is is. I've also found that they're goon in a pinch if you have a toothache! It won't last long, but if you put it right on the area it'll numb it a little bit til you can get something stronger. And, since it's Listerine, it probably helps if the area's infected, too. (I can't make any medical claims and am not recommending it in place of going to your dentist!)

While there are others that go on more smoothly, I love Wet n Wild because it does the job and is so inexpensive. I go through eyeliners like crazy...not that I really use so much of it, but because I lose it, leave it in the car (in the heat), or just get tired of the color and want to try a new one. So, it's hard for me to justify spending a lot of money on something I'll be replacing soon anyway.

This isn't the exact kit that I bought, but most of the products are the same. The first time I bought it I was absolutely hooked! I planned on using it mostly for travel, but loved the products so much that I just kept using them at home. The lip balm is a little strong, but it really wakes your lips up! The lotions and creams are rich and luxurious, not watery or pasty, and one of my favorite Burts Bees products is the face scrub! I have sensitive skin, that is oily, prone to break-outs, yet also sometimes dry and flakey. It's hard to find a product that doesn't aggravate the situation. But the BB's scrub worked beautifully! It scrubbed off the dead skin w/out making it red and irritated and moisturized w/out making it oily.

I've always loved musk, but some people find it overwhelming. This truly is a soft version that is great by itself, but soft enough to use along with other scents. What first got me to try it was that it reminded me of baby powder, which makes it a great scent to use right after a bath and right before going to bed. If you're not sure about trying the cologne, you may want to try the Soft Musk powder. Because it is so soft and unassuming, I've often used that with whatever scent I'm wearing at the time.

I love all of Avon's lip balms! They all go on smooth (not waxy) and the flavors are great(again, not waxy), not overwhelming. They also have some that are just slightly tinted, some with SPF, and are always coming out with seasonal flavors all year round (I've had cookie flavors, candy flavors, and just about every fruit you could imagine). The seasonal ones also come in cute designs. (I just gave my daughter one with a ladybug on it, along with a matching mini hand lotion). I always have several of my own, and like to give them as gifts and stocking stuffers...or "just because". (PS...As "Odinsbacklash" said, they're also nice to keep handy by your bedside ;)

This scent has been one of my favorites for over 10 years, since it first came out! I'm never without it and right now I have the spray and the powder. I also buy the lotion when it goes on sale. I truly believe that the scent you wear can effect the way you feel and this one makes me feel classy, sensuous and beautiful. While I noticed that someone said it doesn't last long, I think that other people can still smell it on you; you just get accostomed to it. It is niced to carry some in your purse, though, just to refresh it a little and to give yourself a lift.

I'm a big fan of all of Avon's hand lotions, but the one I recommend the most is Silicone Glove. It really does protect your hands almost like a glove. This is especially great for people whose hands are sensitive to chemicals in cleaning solutions. While I wouldn't reccomend using it instead of gloves if you have an allergy, It works well if your hands tend to get dry and flaky sometimes after washing dishes or cleaning.

I discovered this product when I was about 18 and my mom was using it(I'm now in my 40's). I found it to work like magic, not only on my feet, but on my knees and elbows as well. I had forgotten about when I moved out on my own (they may have even stopped making it for a while), but discovered it again several years ago. The formula may have changed since my mom first bought it, but it still works as well as, if not better than ever! And not only is the regular price a bargain, Avon often runs sales on their FootWorks products!
