Skin So Soft Avon Bath Oil - A Review

Have you heard of Avon Skin So Soft Bath Oil?
As an Avon Representative, It’s one of my best sellers! Many of my Avon customers are very loyal to the Original Skin So Soft bath oil they rave about how soft it makes their skin as well as the additional benefits associated with the legendary product (insect repelling qualities, household remedies etc.).

But I have a little secret that may shock you….I’m not a big fan of the scent.

Now don’t get me wrong! I use many products from the Skin So Soft Avon line or “SSS” for short, like the lotions, hair removal products, deodorants and body wash but I have to truthfully say I don’t use the bath oil. And I’ll tell you why. Last winter I decided to purchase the Skin So Soft Gelled Body Oil for me and my son because we both suffer from extremely dry skin during the winter so I thought this is great, we can both use it and my son can easily smooth it on after his shower and all will be well. Unfortunately we both found the Original SSS fragrance was just too strong. My poor boy, he was so annoyed! He said he smelled like a flower! And I don’t blame him; the strong flowery scent didn’t suit me either.

Now I realize fragrance is all a personal preference and as mentioned most of my customers love the Original scent but for me it’s just too strong. I prefer a lighter scent. So I ended up returning it and figured that Avon Skin So Soft Bath Oil just wasn’t for me and I stuck with the other Skin So Soft Avon products that came in other scents like the lotions and body washes. I don’t mind the way they smell, in fact I really like the light fresh scents of SSS Soft & Sensual and SSS Signature Silk and the lotions really do leave my skin feeling soft. But I couldn’t help feeling like I was missing out, especially when my customers would rave how soft the Original Bath Oil left their skin. If only Avon had the bath oil in these other scents. I couldn’t figure out why AVON had these two fantastic fragrances in their other Skin So Soft Avon products but yet they were holding out on the bath oil.


Well now that’s all changed!

Because recently Avon announced they improved the Skin So Soft formula and also added to their bath oil collection. They still have the Original formula but now they also have Soft & Sensual and Signature Silk formulas as well! Boy was I happy when Avon informed me of this news. It was about time!


Now Avon has three New & Improved formulas that will please everyone! Here is the new line up:



Skin So Soft - Original Formula (Botanical & Fresh Herbal Scent)
If you’re a loyal user of the original bath oil you’re going to love this improved formula now with Jojoba Oil. It still has the same fragrance as well as softens and conditions skin all day. Skin Soft Original is also available in Shower Gel, Gelled Body Oil, Body Lotion, and Bath Oil Spray.
Click here to see the whole SSS Original Collection over at the Avon website
.





Skin So Soft – Soft & Sensual Formula (Lush Floral & Jamine Scent)
This new formula with Argan Oil locks in 50% more moisture than lotion. It offers rich hydration and restores skin’s essential moisture. SSS Soft & Sensual is also available in a new Creamy Body Wash, Shower Gel and Ultra Moisturizing Body Lotion.
Click here to see the whole Soft & Sensual Collection over at the Avon website








Skin So Soft - Signature Silk Formula (Fresh Gardenia & Exotic Woods Scent)
New Signature Silk Bath Oil also with Argan Oil boosts and illuminates skin. Signature Silk is also available in a new Creamy Body Wash, Shower Gel, Replenishing Hand Cream, Ultra Moisturizing Body Lotion, Gelled Body Oil, and Perfecting Oil.
Click here to see the whole Signature Silk Collection over at the Avon website




So there it is I am now a happy camper! I ordered my bath oil in my favorite scent (Soft & Sensual) and have been using it ever since. My skin feels good and I smell good.


Here are some tips when using the bath oil

How to use:
As a Bath Oil - Fill into bath and poor desired amount into water to soak yourself
As a Leave-in Moisturizer - Apply to wet skin after bath, smooth all over body then wipe off with towel

Helpful Tips:

  • Be careful when pouring! It has a push twist cap but it will pour freely if dropped. So make sure your hands aren’t slippery when holding the bottle.
  • I found that while using the bath oil as a leave-in moisturizer it’s better to apply it standing on a towel rather than in the bathtub because it can leave the tub slippery.
  • The top doesn’t have anything to control the flow of the oil so I found it easier to pour it into the cap first which makes it easier to control when I’m pouring it onto my hand to apply.

Have you tried Skin So Soft Avon Bath Oil? What are your thoughts? I’d love to hear how you use it and any helpful tips you might have! Just leave a comment below.

Avon Anew Anti-Aging Skin Care


Get Your Free Customized Anew Skin Care Regimen Here


Avon ANEW anti-aging products have been helping millions of Avon customers look younger and beautiful for two decades and this year ANEW is celebrating its 20th anniversary. Avon ANEW is known worldwide and has become the company’s largest brand. Since the introduction of their first product in 1992, Avon has expanded the line to meet virtually every anti-aging skin care need.

The ANEW Anti-Aging brands includes:

  • ANEW Clinical
  • ANEW Rejuvenate
  • ANEW Reversalist
  • ANEW Ultimate
  • ANEW Platinum
  • ANEW Genics,
  • ANEW Solar Advance
  • ANEW Anti-Aging Makeup

 

 

ANEW Skincare Regimens


If you use Avon ANEW regularly you probably have already have seen the benefits that a daily ANEW regimen can bring but if you are “new” to ANEW or have never tried any of the products here is a breakdown of the ANEW skincare regimens.

The most popular of the Avon ANEW products are the customized Anti-Aging regimens. ANEW skin care regimens are specifically designed to meet the skin care needs of individuals in their 30’s, 40’s 50’s and 60+. The basic ANEW regimen starts with 4 main products:

 

  1. Cleanser
  2. Day Moisturizer
  3. Night Moisturizer
  4. Eye Treatment.


When used together on a regular daily basis these four components are the foundation of the ANEW skin care regimens. A typical ANEW anti-aging regimen is a 3 step process:

Step 1 – Cleanse with an ANEW Daily Cleanser:
Used daily, morning and night, ANEW Cleansers remove makeup & impurities preparing the skin for moisturizers and treatment.

 

Step 2 – Moisturize with a ANEW Day & Night Cream:
ANEW SPF Day Creams treat and protect the skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays as well as protect against environmental pollutants. ANEW Night Creams treat and moisturize skin at night when it is more receptive. Using ANEW moisturizers nightly helps boost skin cells to replenish and repair daily damage caused by sun, pollution and weather as you sleep.

 

Step 3: Finish off with an ANEW Eye Treatment:
ANEW Eye treatments treat the delicate eye area of fine lines, puffiness and discoloration.

Getting in the habit of cleansing, moisturizing and treating your skin day & night isn’t always easy but it is necessary for healthy skin. Choosing the right products for an anti-aging skin care regimen can also be confusing but Avon has taken the guesswork out of skin care by customizing the ANEW regimens by age group. The Avon ANEW daily skincare regimens are:

 

 

ANEW Rejuvenate 30+


For those in their 30’s, ANEW Rejuvenate addresses the early signs of aging by visibly reducing fine lines, evening out skin tone, shrinking the look of pores and smoothing rough texture.

The Avon ANEW Rejuvenate regimen includes:

  • ANEW Rejuvenate Revitalizing 2-in-1 Gel Cleanser
  • ANEW Rejuvenate Day Cream SPF 25
  • ANEW Rejuvenate Revitalizing Night Cream
  • ANEW Rejuvenate 24 Hour Eye Cream


Additional Rejuvenate Skin Care Treatments

  • ANEW Rejuvenate Night Sapphire Emulsion
  • ANEW Rejuvenate Flash Facial Revitalizing Concentrate
  • ANEW Rejuvenate Mineral Facial Rinse-Off Treatment
  • ANEW Rejuvenate Glycolic Facial Treatment

 

 

 

 

ANEW Reversalist 40 +


Avon ANEW Reversalist is for individuals in their 40’s who may be experiencing moderate signs of aging, including wrinkles, loss of firmness and discoloration.

Avon ANEW Reversalist regimen includes:

  • ANEW Reversalist Renewal Foam Cleanser
  • ANEW Reversalist Day Cream
  • ANEW Reversalist Night Cream
  • ANEW Reversalist Illuminating Eye System


Additional Reversalist Skin CareTreatments

  • ANEW Reversalist Night Sterling Emulsion
  • ANEW Reversalist Renewal Serum

 

 

 

 

ANEW Ultimate 50+


For those in their 50’experiencing advanced signs of aging ANEW ultimate addresses specific skincare concerns within this age group, such as loss of elasticity, volume and cushion, as well as deep wrinkles and dark age spots.

The Avon ANEW Ultimate regimen includes:

  • ANEW Ultimate Age Repair Cream Cleanser
  • ANEW Ultimate Age Repair Day SPF 25
  • ANEW Ultimate Age Repair Night Cream
  • ANEW Ultimate Contouring Eye System


Additional Ultimate Skin Care Treatments

  • ANEW Ultimate Age Repair Gold Emulsion
  • ANEW Ultimate Elixir Premium

 

 

 

 

ANEW Platinum 60+


Platinum targets anti-aging concerns for those in their 60’ and up who are experiencing advanced signs of aging. Platinum’s rich formulas improve the neck area, deep wrinkles, dullness, extreme dryness and improves firmness and elasticity.

The Avon ANEW Platinum regimen includes:

  • ANEW Platinum Cleanser
  • ANEW Platinum Day Cream
  • ANEW Platinum Night Cream
  • ANEW Platinum Eye & Lip Cream
  • ANEW Platinum Serum

 

ANEW Skin Treatments


In addition to the above daily regimens Avon customers can also target and treat specific aging concerns where more attention is needed.

ANEW Clinical


 

ANEW Clinical helps target problem areas that need extra help with wrinkles, loss of firmness, uneven texture or discolorations. ANEW Clinical target treatments are used along with any ANEW regimen listed above and are applied immediately after cleansing and before the day and night creams. ANEW Clinical is Avon’s at home option to dermatological procedures.


Some of the more popular Clinical Treatments are:

  • ANEW CLINICAL Eye Lift PRO Dual Eye System
  • ANEW CLINICAL Advanced Wrinkle Corrector
  • ANEW CLINICAL ThermaFirm Face Lifting Cream
  • ANEW CLINICAL Advanced Retexturizing Peel
  • ANEW CLINICAL Luminosity Pro Brightening Serum

 

 

 

 

ANEW Genics


 

The newest addition to the ANEW family and currently the most talked about is the breakthrough night treatment, ANEW Genics. ANEW Genics is scientifically developed with a patented Youth Gene Technology to help skin look up to 10 years younger. Avon is first in the skincare industry to introduce this groundbreaking Youth Gene night treatment.

ANEW Genics is used in place of the ANEW regimen night creams and emulsions and can be used by allage groups.

The ANEW Genics regimen includes:

  • ANEW Genics Treatment Cream
  • ANEW Genics Eye Cream (available March 2012)
  • ANEW Genics Serum (coming soon)

 

 

Although Avon makes it easy by customizing ANEW regimens by age group, not everyone within that age group will have the same skincare needs. So Avon has designed a quick & easy tool to help customers create their own customized anti-aging regimen. The Guide to Looking Younger Online Quiz, is an interactive resource available through the Avon Website. Customers are asked a set of questions regarding their skincare concerns and based on their answers are given a customized regimen of Avon ANEW products.

 


Avon ANEW Body & Beauty Treatments


So far we’ve only covered ANEW skin care facial regimens but did you know anti-aging products go beyond that? ANEW fans can also use the anti-aging line from “head-to-toe” with Body Treatments. ANEW body treatments target problem areas on the body such as cellulite, sagging or discoloration. Avon ANEW also has an anti-aging sunscreen to help protect and repair skin from the damaging sun, as well as an makeup line that helps women look younger throughout the day.

Beautiful and Bald Barbie Cancer Cause

Bald is Beautiful Barbie

 

Hello Beauties!

A friend of mine shared a Facebook page with me the other day and it touched me so much I just had to share this with you all.

Everyone deserves to feel beautiful and the Beautiful and Bald Barbie Facebook page is on a mission to help those who are suffering from hair loss due to cancer or illness feel just that. The Beautiful and Bald Barbie cause is urging everyone to support them in influencing Mattel toys to produce a bald version of its famous Barbie doll. The cause believes that a bald Barbie will help children with cancer and others who have lost their hair due to illness cope with their conditions.

To support the cause go to Facebook and Like the Beautiful and Bald" fan page

This is the article my friend shared the other day :-)

Support for ‘Bald Barbie’ Swells on Facebook

A Facebook movement to urge Mattel to produce a bald version of its famously blonde Barbie doll generated more than 10,000 “likes” in just a couple of hours, according to one of the administrators of the “Bald and Beautiful Barbie” page.

Beckie Sypin, a co-founder of the cause, told ABCNews.com that the hope is that a bald Barbie will help children with cancer and others who have lost their hair due to illness — such as alopecia and trichotillomania — cope with their conditions.

“We hope it gets the message out that being bald is beautiful and is no big deal. There’s no need to cover up,” she said.

Sypin’s own daughter is one of those children. The 12-year-old, named Kin Inich, lost her hair after chemotherapy.

Even though her daughter isn’t a huge Barbie fan, Sypin said she is excited about the idea.

“She said if they make one, she would totally get it,” Sypin said. “The first thing she said was if they make that doll, she would buy a bunch and take them to a children’s hospital and give them to children with cancer.”

Jane Bingham, Sypin’s friend and co-founder of the Facebook page, lost her hair while undergoing treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

“My daughter had some difficulty accepting me going from a long-haired blonde to a bald woman,” she wrote in a blog. A bald Barbie, she added, could be a great way for young girls to cope with hair loss that happens to them or to a loved one.

Nearly 60,000 people are fans of the page, created just three weeks ago, and that number is still climbing. Many commenters shared their support for the bald Barbie.

“I can only imagine what young children feel when they lose their hair,” wrote a cancer patient. “Let’s make this happen and teach them young that hair doesn’t make someone beautiful, it’s whats inside that truly matters!”

Sypin said the hope is that if the doll is made, proceeds from sales would go to a children’s cancer group.

The women also started a “Bald G.I. Joe Movement” Facebook page to help young boys dealing with baldness.

Hasbro, the company that makes G.I. Joe, told ABC News in a statement that it supports the movement “and the attention it is bringing to very worthwhile causes, including cancer research.”

Hasbro also said there will be two new action figures in this year’s product line that are bald, and while they weren’t designed to draw attention to childhood cancers, the company hopes the figures will provide comfort to children suffering from hair loss.

In an email to ABC News, Mattel didn’t say whether it would produce the bald Barbie or not, but expressed appreciation that Sypin and Bingham wanted Barbie to be the face of their campaign.

The company also said it receives hundreds of requests for different Barbies and are always exploring new options.

Both Hasbro and Mattel also stressed they regularly support numerous children’s charities.

Supporters of the bald Barbie also took to Mattel’s Facebook page, asking the company to mass produce the doll. Last year, Mattel made a one-of-a-kind bald Barbie for a 4-year-old cancer patient in New York, according to WCBS.

Sypin said the response she got from Mattel was a letter informing her the company does not accept ideas from outside sources.

But that rejection hasn’t stopped the movement’s momentum.

“We hope either Mattel does look at it and says okay, or that another company will pick up on the idea,” she said.
