Preping for a night out? - My Top 5 Avon products

In order of application - #3


Following on from my last post, Preping for a night out? - My top 5 Avon products, it's haircare time!  The 2 items mentioned in previous posts (legs and tanning) were "day-before-the-do" tasks.  Hair is "evening-of-the-event".

I'm a hair straightener addict - I admit it!  I've often been referred to as Medusa because of my bed-head hair, so to me, my straightening iron is a must.  Before I even think of applying heat to my hair, the product I reach for is Avon's Heat Protection Styler.  This is a real smoothie, this styler seals in the cuticle and helps protect hair from styling damage. Spray it in before using stylers to leave hair smooth and shiny.

I never used to use heat defence sprays and I straighten my hair nearly everyday, my hair started breaking and the ends were very dry and frizzy.  My hairdresser told me it was because i wasn't using heat defence.  I tried several products, even big brand names but have found Avon's the best.

Not only does it work well with my hair but it smells gorgeous.  I use this heat protecting spray everyday before straighting my hair.  My hair looks and feels great.

Preping for a night out? - My Top 5 Avon products

In order of application - #2

Following on from my last post in Preping for a night out? - My Top 5 Avon Products, the next step you must take before your night out is to "Tan-it-up".

This is definitely an Avon product that takes an important place on my shelf.  It's Avons' Skin so Soft Ultimate Body Moisturiser with SPF 15.  It is a gradual tanning body lotion which gives a natural sunkissed glow whilst protecting your skin from sun’s harmful rays. It's your summer in a bottle.

I love this product so much and I've used it for years without once turning orange.  If you apply this correctly it will NOT streak.  I use the shade for MEDIUM skin tones.  Having a tan and soft skin is great.  I would choose this brand over the other brands available in stores today.

One pearl of advice - try not to put this on directly before you go to bed.  Allow the lotion to dry thoroughly before climbing under the sheets.  Twisting and turning during the night, with still lotioned up legs doesn't produce an even tan the next morning.  Enjoy the process - don't rush it.

Preping for a night out? - My Top 5 Avon products

In order of application = #1

Friday 8th July, my family and friends celebrated my brother's engagement to his now fiancee, so in the usual girly fashion I started my pamper and presentation routine on Thursday night.  Thursday night's list of "things-to-do" involved legs and limbs, tan and attire.

With two children in bed and a days work ahead of me on Friday, I had to manage my preparation time wisely.  Out came the tube of Avon's Skin so Soft Hair removal cream for the legs.  I must admit, I haven't used this product in a long time and I'm now kicking myself for not using it more often. 

It's easy to apply in that with full-on randomness I applied a thick coat of cream.  The instructions say to leave the product on for between two and a half to ten minutes.  So cream is on - I'm off to continue my list of things-to-do.

With two well creamed up legs,  I pulled my carefully selected dress from the hanger and off I went to iron it lightly.  When finished with my ironing, six minutes had passed.  Time to finished the legs.  I used a washcloth and a running shower head and swiped the product off. 

Brilliantly the hair came off with it.  I continued to remove the product and the hair continued to follow.  Some companies pay Jennifer Lopez to advertise hair removal products, I think I'll be sticking to my Avon Skin so Soft Hair Removal Cream.
