Pretty (in Cheap) Pastels: Avon's Nailwear Pro+

Figgy





Hallelujah! I've found a non-shitty nail polish that I actually like!

As you might know, I'm a bit of a fiend for coloring my nails. It's an easy, fast way to put some color into my life, and I like changing my polish almost weekly.

You might also know that most polishes are pretty terrible. They crack, peel and chip away almost hours after you apply them. I've tried everything from Rimmel (remember that? Worst POS I've ever tried), OPI (I love the colors but those polishes don't last for shit on me), and Sally Hansen (mostly really good and cheap). So I wanted to try something new.

Avon Solutions Total Radiance Eye Gel: You're My Only Hope!

Figgy





Recently I've had to change my work schedule to start the day off earlier, which means getting up at 6am every day. That's not so bad if you're smart and go to bed at a decent hour. But because I'm not, I don't, and end up going to bed at midnight or later.

So I always end up looking and acting like a hideous monster in the mornings. A shower helps wake me up, but sometimes I need a little extra help to look decent. Specifically so that I don't look like a sleep deprived swamp creature whose eyes have been stung by bees. That...made more sense in my head. Point is: Puffy eyes, not attractive.

Need help.

Avon Advanced Techniques Frizz Control Lotus Shield: Results May Vary

Pinky McLadybits

I think I've said this before, but I used to sell Avon. As recently as a few months ago, in fact. It doesn't make me any more enamored with their products, I can tell you that much. The cute boots I bought last year but haven't really worn until this year? Falling apart. Their Magix Face Perfecting Primer? Peeled the skin off my face. So, I'm going to tell you the truth about this Avon Advanced Techniques Frizz Control Lotus Shield.

First, THE NAME IS TOO DAMN LONG. All these beauty products with long-ass names, STOP IT. I HATE IT.

Avon Anti-Rub Blister Stick: Can It Really Prevents Heel and Toe Blisters?

Author: Pinky McLadybits

I don't wear heels often. In fact, I don't wear shoes often if I can get away with it. I used to be able to run barefoot in a driveway full of gravel without wincing or breaking stride. Those days are long gone, as even the pavement is much too ouchy for me to deal with sans soles.

It should come as no surprise then that wearing shoes and walking for vast periods of time causes me much foot discomfort. Blistering, scraping, aching,  and all of the lovely things caused by gorgeous but crazy uncomfortable shoes. I saw Avon's FootWorks Anti-Rub Blister Stick in their catalog and felt it my duty to give it a try.

Avon Therapeutic Cracked Heel Relief Cream


If I had my way, I'd be barefoot all the time. I've always preferred running around in the bare minimum footwear I can get away with - at work, sandals; at play, flip flops.

Of course, all the exposure to the air coupled with all the standing I do at work means my heels tend to dry and crack. Lucky for me, I've found a product that keeps my feet looking gorgeous.
