Avon Clearskin - My Beauty Consultant Products

Jennifer C is a beautiful young lady!  Blonde hair, blue eyes, tall, slender and athletic.

She also has severe acne.

I met Jennifer when she just turned 16.  This pretty young girl was embarrassed about her complexion.  Her mother, a good friend of mine, was becoming concerned that Jennifer's self confidence and self esteem were reaching a low.

Jennifer told me she had been using Proactiv for months and it worked wonderfully, but the family was now on a tight budget and the products were too expensive and asked if I could help her.

Avon carries products geared specifically for Jennifer!

Avon Clearskin has products equal to the leading acne fighting companies!

I recommended Jennifer use the affordable,  Clearskin Professional Acne Treatment System.

 Formulated with a blend of key ingredients:
- Salicylic Acid* OTC active treatment to clear, reduce & help prevent acne blemishes.
*Scrub & Lotion only.
- Glycolic Acid An effective skin retexturizer.
- Exclusive Zinc Hexapeptide-11 Designed to help control surface oil in oily-prone skin.

3 steps to skin that's clearer in just 3 days!

Dr. Karcher says: "The first thing I tell my patients is that a good skin care routine is the foundation for great skin. And keep it simple! Use each step morning and night for the best results possible."

How to use:
Step 1 Cleanse Deep Pore Cleansing Scrub contains our exclusive Oil Control System. Exfoliates pores; leaves skin feeling cool, clean and healthier-looking. 4.2 fl. oz.

Step 2: Tone Clarifying Toner Pads specially formulated to help retexturize, calm and soothe; skin looks and feels smoother after just one use. 45 pads.

Step 3: Treat Daily Correcting Lotion multi-tasking treatment lotion visibly minimizes pores and controls surface oil. Proven to even skin tone. 2 fl. oz. 




Because Jennifer was anxious to use the products, her mother ordered them from my online store : Avon Express Online Store  

The products were delivered to her door within four days.  

 During my follow up with Jennifer, I noticed a dramatic improvement in her skin and I am happy to say her acne is under control.  She is also more outgoing and self confident!

No one needs to live with acne!

Avon Anew Products

I met with Megan, "Meg" a 67 year old Grosse Pointe matron, one hot, steamy afternoon in August four years ago. 

Meg, as well as  her physician husband had lifetime of fulfilling charity events, traveling, raising three children (all adults now with families of their own).  She's an avid golfer, and blessed with good health!

Sitting across from Meg, I noticed that the years of her outdoor activities had taken a toll on her skin.

She had deep wrinkles, almost creases on the forehead, on both sides of her face, her skin was leathery, she had deep "crows feet" around her eyes and (thankfully) had quit smoking the year before, however the damage around her lips was prominent. Her jowls had begun to lose elasticity. 

Meg asked for a skincare consultation knowing I was an independent Avon representative.  She had used some high priced products in the past with little success in combating her concerns.  And she had heard about the award winning Anew and  Avon Anew Clinical products from television advertising and magazine articles such as Allure.

We decided that she would start with the Avon Anew Platinum specifically designed for 60+ women.

Anew Platinum Cleanser is a mild but effective cleanser that will moisture.

Anew Platinum Serum helps restore the look of the skin

Anew Platinum Eye and Lip Cream visibly restores definition around the eyes and lips.

Anew Platinum Day Cream reduces the look of sagging around and under the chin and neck.

Anew Platinum Night Cream continues to reduce the sagging around the chin and neck.

I also left her samples of Anew Clinical ThermaFirm Face Lifting Cream, And Anew Clinical Wrinkle Corrector, Anew Clinical Pro Line Eraser Eye Treatment and Anew Clinical Pro Line Eraser Treatment.

During my follow up consultation with Meg, I was gratified that she was so pleased with the products and her appearance! 

She opted to use the Anew Platinum Day, night and eye and lip cream, and is a faithful user of the Avon Clinical Products:  wrinkle corrector and Pro Line treatments.

These products literally took years off her face and six months later much of the sun damage to her face had visibly diminished.

My Beauty Consultant Products-Skincare

The day I met Mary Jane C was freezing!  We were just recovering from a major snowstorm and the the temperatures were still below normal for February.

Sitting across from her in her dining room, I noticed she had two small children, twins about four years old, both energetic boys! Mary Jane is a stay at home mom, about 32 years old with few wrinkles but her face had been scarred with teenage acne and she was self conscious about this problem.  She also had some laugh lines around her eyes and her skin tended to be somewhat blotchy.

She has a hetic life!  The twins are little brothers to two older siblings, a daughter ten and a son, eight. Her husband works at an accounting office.  Her schedule was such that she needed an easy, quick regimen to ward off the signs of aging and repair those concerns she already had.

I recommended she start her day with a mild cleanser, Avon Anew Revitalizing 2-1 Gel, followed by Anew Absolute Even Multi-Tone Skin Corrector and Anew Genics Eye Treatment.

Why?  Avon Anew Revitalizing 2-1 Gel is mild, will gently remove all traces of makeup and tone the skin.

Anew Absolute Even Multi-Tone Skin Corrector will even out her skin tone and is a perfect product for post -acne marks.

Anew Genics Eye Treatment will diminish the lines around her eyes and will make the undereye firmer.

I also suggested for night cream she use Anew Genics Night Treatment Cream.to moisturize.

I check back frequently with all my customers/ clients and am very happy to say that Mary Jane's skin has evened out and the acne marks are barely visible!  She has reordered these products regularly from me for over three years!

My Beauty Consultant Products

I've been an independent representative with a Fortune 500 Company for close to 15 years

I love their award winning skincare, fragrance and cosmetic products.

(I'm constantly looking at our competitors to ensure my customers/clients receive the best products on the market at the most affordable prices).

For the most part, this blog will be an informative, questions and answers from consultations I've done over the years.

To guard the privacy of my customers/clients, I will not use their full names.  I do, though, have permission to use their first name, age, and skincare concerns, color applications, and fragrance suggestions.




My Beauty Consultant Products- Emma J

Emma J is a 35 year old career woman, an attorney.  Emma works long hours with a firm in Downtown Detroit.  Recently married, and a hetic schedule, (she also worked out twice a week at a local gymn), Emma wanted a skincare consultation that was easy to use and would help prevent new wrinkles.

Sitting across from her, I noticed that Emma's face had few lines or wrinkles.  I remember being amazed that with her stressful job, looking for a new home, working out, and social events, she didn't appear haggard.  To the contrary, she was in a well dressed business suit, her hair was perfectly done, and though I thought she could use a bit more makeup, she was the epitome of a successful career woman.

I did a skincare profile with her targeting her concerns:  lines forming around the eyes, laugh lines, starting to show, frown lines slightly appearing.

I suggested Avon Anew Rejuvenate  specifically designed for women 30+ with early signs of aging. 

Emma wanted a simple regimen and Rejuvenate fit this bill perfectly.
