(This is not the current newsletter, the current will be updated)

 April 15, 2000 
 

We are now in C-11. 
The last day to order is 
April 30, 2000.  (Thank 
you for all your orders by 
the way.  And remember 
that when you bring me an 
order from a friend I’ll give 
15% off your order.) 

C-11 has some good 
values this month.  The 
Naturals shower gels are 
$2.99 each (usually 
$5.00 each) pg. 101 in 
the brochure. 

Mix and Match beauty 
buys 2 for $4.00 hand 
creams, perfumed skin 
softeners, speed dry nail 
enamel lip color (usually 
$2.29 - $5.00 each) - pg.. 
120-127. 

The item that won’t be 
priced lower this year and 
actually prevents age 
spots from forming and 
one of the longest lasting 
Avon product is Nurtura at 
$3.99 (usually $9.00) on 
the back cover. 

Bubble Bath 10oz and 
24oz buy two of the same 
size, any scent 
combination for the price 
of one,  16oz  $9.99 for 
two; 24 oz, $12.99 for two 
pg. 110.  These are great 
for many other uses 

 besides the wonderful 
bubbles 2 capfuls gives 
you without  a ring around 
the tub to have to clean 
up after.  The Vanilla 
Cream bath is wonderful 
to use for a special 
laundry and also it can be 
used in those carpet 
cleaners at the market. 
(By the way those 
machines work great!!!).  I 
like to use the Bubble 
Bath for washing dishes. 
The scent is a great help 
for those of you who also 
find the business 
depressing. 

The jewelry - sterling silver 
any two pieces for $29.99 
- save $9.99 is a great 
offer. pg.. 54-55. 

Lastly, Anew Skintrition is 
priced the lowest this year 
at $9.99 - pg. 47.   It is a 
vitamin primer that makes 
your make up go on 
nicely.  This is important 
to all dry skin foundation 
users.  It even outs the 
texture so your base 
smooths on evenly. 
 

 What’s New  -  Dolce 
Aura 

Avon’s newest fragrance 
is now available.  It is a 
romantic floral: 
 
 Page 1

 
 
 
 
 
Bergamot, yellow freesia, 
tangerine flower, rose, 
muguet, jasmine patchouli 
and oakmoss.  For 
everyone there is a 
sample of it with C-11 
brochure. 

The 3-in-1 all over face 
pencil is an ultra creamy 
formula and subtle color 
for eyes, lips and cheeks. 
Easy to apply, easy  to 
blend for a summery look. 
It has a jumbo pencil 
sharpener too. 

The sheer face tint with 
spf 15 is a light 
moisturizing tint with SPF 
25 to even out skin tone. 
Very sheer silky-soft matte 
finish.  If you like a little 
more coverage but sheer 
foundation the Clear 
Finish Oil-Free Foundation 
is great. 

Sheer Color Creme Blush 
gives you a day at the 
beach color with sun 
protection.  Super-sheer, 
natural looking blush adds 
just a touch of color to the 
cheeks.  Goes on 
smoothly and evenly. 
(This is only available at 
this time of the year)  It is 
water resistant. 

WHEN YOU ORDER ANY 
MAKE UP PRODUCTS OF 
TWO OR MORE I WILL 
INCLUDE A MAKE-UP 

 VIDEO THAT GIVES YOU 
THE BASICS ON HOW TO 
APPLY MAKE-UP.  IF YOU 
ARE NOT ENJOYING USING 
MAKEUP THIS VIDEO CAN 
CHANGE ALL THAT. 

The Clean ‘N Go cleansing 
& makeup remover cloths 
removes dirt and makeup 
from the face and eyes. 
Contains soothing 
chamomile and aloe.  25 
cloths  Intro special : 
$4.99. 

The Peach Soft Musk that 
everyone is enjoying in the 
shower gel, talc, lotion 
and perfume has another 
product in the line now it 
is the Peach Skin 
Softener.  For those of you 
who have never tried the 
skin softeners you are 
really missing out.  And 
especially with the warmer 
weather on the way this 
can easily provide enough 
scent by itself without 
needing a fragrance spray 
for those of you who are 
sensitive to perfume I 
hear that this is a solution. 

Imari is being offered in 
an organza drawstring bag 
for this brochure only at 
$14.99 (usually $20.00). 
Imari is one of Avon’s best 
selling fragrance. 

Also new the Naturals 
aloe collection. A 

 wholesome gentle sensitive skincare for your skin. Dermatologically tested.  Aloe 
facial wash with ginger $2.99.  Toner with tea tree $2.99 and the moisturizer with 
aloe and wheat germ is light, non greasy.  This line is very good for very dry sensitive 
skin but can be used by all skin types.  Non-comedogenic. 

Do you have sensitive skin?  Does this sound like you?  (Dry and oily skin types do 
experience sensitivity from time to time too.) Dermatologists define sensitive skin as 
skin that stings, turns red or develops a rash that lasts more than a half hour after 
applying products.  Avon still makes the Calming Effects skin creme also. It is just not 
always in the brochure, but can be ordered. 

Just to tell you a little bit about what I am doing.  I am trying to build a consultant 
group. I want to help them get what they need to start their new business.  I have 
hired seven representatives now.  And I am looking for anyone else who might be 
interested.  I think that it would be especially 
 Page 2

 
 
 
attractive to all who order 
on a regular basis 
because you can order all 
your products that you are 
using at a substantial 
discount.  For the first 4 
campaigns you can order 
them at 40% and you 
don’t have to necessarily 
order every campaign if 
you are ordering for just 
your family and friends.  It 
won’t be a problem for me 
in fact I encourage you to 
benefit by the savings and 
you can always stop 
anytime and order through 
me after the 40% discount 
runs out.  (After 4 
campaigns you have to 
have a certain sales 
volume to get the 40% but 
you still would be able to 
order the products at a 
20% discount and that is 
better than I offer you for 
bringing one extra order to 
me)  So it is something to 
try.  Who knows maybe 
you want to make  money 
too.  We have monthly 
meetings to attend to help 
you get started in  sales 
also.  There is no delivery 
charge on your orders 
either.  By the way for 
those of you who receive 
the brochure by mail.  You 
can order you products 
directly from the company 
(with a delivery charge of 
$4.00) just be sure to 
mention the number on 
the back and I will be 		 credited for the order. 
Would you let me know 
when you order this way 
as I would like to see how 
it works. 

Your input means the 
world to me and I can use 
your ideas, comments, 
questions and critiques to 
improve my service.  And I 
would like to share them 
with everyone in the 
newsletter also.  So like 
when you get used to your 
favorite Avon lipstick and 
they discontinue it you 
can voice it in the 
newsletter.  By the way I 
have a conversion chart 
for anyone who requests it 
when this happens.  Or 
alternatively when you are 
getting many compliments 
on the way you look so 
much younger or different 
from using Anew please 
share these stories as
they are very important 
and can provide very 
helpful feedback for 
others.

What’s up with 
AHAs 

Another class of 
ingredients that can work 
with moisturizers to 
improve the skin’s 
appearance is 

 alpha-hydroxy acids, or 
AHAs, such as glycolic and 
lactic acids. “AHAs aren’t 
just a craze.  They serve a 
very important purpose in 
skin care,” says Ellen C. 
Gendler, MD., director of 
the Center for Skin Health 
and Appearance at the 
New York University 
Medical Center.  That 
purpose is to act as an 
exfoliant by dissolving the 
“intercellular glue” 
between dead skin cells, 
thus gently peeling them 
away and revealing the 
smoother complexion 
beneath.  The result is 
more-youthful-looking 
skin.  And AHAs help boost 
the effectiveness of 
moisturizers,too.  Explains 
Cristina Carlino, CEO of 
BioMedic Clinical Care, a 
company that specializes 
in therapeutic skin-care 
products, “You cannot 
moisturize the skin by 
putting cream on dead 
cells.  You have to 
exfoliate to remove them 
first.”  Lastly AHAs can 
unclog pores, a benefit for 
those with oily skin.  The 
Anew skin care line is best 
for using these very 
effective AHAs.  The very 
latest product to the line 
is Luminosity.  It has an 
exclusive brightening 
complex combined with 
gentle plant extracts to 
create a new radiance.  It

moisturizes, exfoliates 
and has an SPF of 15. It 
can be used twice a day in 
addition to what you are 
currently using.
