Christmas Gift Ideas in Campaign 23

Only 9 weeks until Christmas!  Are you a  "buy early and put away" or a "last week before Christmas" shopper? As a single mother back in the 70s and 80s, my Christmas shopping began in July. I'd buy items weekly, wrap them and put away, ready for the end of the year. It was the only way that I could make sure that my children would have a nice bunch of goodies for Christmas.

I still seem to start earlier in the year, than most. It's much easier on my wallet that way.

AVON's Campaign 23 brochure is packed with some lovely gift items that I want to share with you. Plus, I am now running my annual #SavingsIncentive whereby when you place a $100 order on my website , I send you an additional $25 worth absolutely free - just my way of helping your $$$ go further. It's always my premise to #saveyoumoney or give you more for it. It's also my way of saying "thank you" for your support.

To browse the Campaign 23 brochure online, 

simply click here. You can relax in a comfy chair, put your feet up, and look through the book on your laptop, tablet or phone. There's no traffic or weather to deal with, no crowds, no waiting in a checkout line. Wherever you are, in the USA, you can shop from the convenience of your own living room, without any hassles.

So, who do you have to shop for? How can I help you cross them off your list?

Do you remember when AVON had collectible decanters filled with after shave and colognes? They were in their heyday in the 60s and 70s when I was growing up in England. Well, this year, they have listened to all the decanter lovers and have brought out this cowboy boot filled with one of our favourite men's fragrances - Wild Country.

It holds a full 5oz, and is the perfect gift for the man in your life, whether that's a teenage son, a boyfriend or husband, dad or grandad. It's a limited edition, to mark the 50th anniversary of the Wild Country fragrance. Best of all, it's only $20!

For our Wintersoft fans, AVON has created this gift set that makes an awesome stocking filler. It helps against the ravages of Winter weather on the skin, moisturizing it and keeping it nourished against the elements.

What's one of the things that comes to mind about cold, Winter evenings? What memories come to mind?  For me, it's got to be a mug of steaming hot cocoa. As children, this was our bedtime drink. When my own children were young, Christmas Eve meant going to the church for the midnight carol service, walking home and having a mug of cocoa and some biscuits when we got home. 

These Winter Soft snowflake ceramic mugs mean that you can start a cocoa tradition in your home, this year, or use them for your morning coffee. The set of 4 is dishwasher safe, and retails for $29.99.

This is a perfect gift for a young couple for their first Christmas together, for somebody who is celebrating their first Christmas in a new home, and definitely for cocoa lovers!

Great for snuggling under as you watch tv on a chilly night, this Winter Soft Cable-Knit Throw makes an awesome gift for everyone on your list. 

It's 50"L x 60"W and comes in 2 colours, blue or cream. They are $29.99 and are featured on page 6.

I'll share some more tomorrow.

The Best Way To Shop From The Outlet Brochure

I get asked many times, "Rose, what's the best way to shop from the Outlet books?" and my response is always "on my website".

Why is that?

The Outlet Brochures are like the clearance tables at your local department store. They have great bargains in them, but only a limited quantity, and once they are gone, they're gone!

I place my orders every 2 weeks, so - by the time I do - items may be sold out before my order is submitted to AVON.

When you go to my website www.youravon.com/rosemarydempsey you are told immediately if the item is out of stock, but if AVON still has some, then yours is reserved as soon as you have placed and paid for your order.

It saves you disappointment, and as well as ensuring that you GET the item, it also means you'll receive it sooner too!

You can request a complimentary AVON or mark. brochure in your order, and can take advantage of special offers, just as you could if you were giving me your order in person.

Many times there are online-only specials too, so that you have access to additional offers and savings.

I hate having disappointed customers, and ordering online helps cut down on the event of that happening. My goal is always to offer my customers the best AVON experience that I can, and I try to do that.

If you buy from my site during October, you can use code RA2510 on any order of $25 or more and get free shipping.

Campaign 22 picks from our Holiday Previews

Christmas is coming! In Campaign 22, we have some previews of our Christmas gift items, beginning with fragrance sets for him and her.

I LOVE the Prima fragrance, and this fragrance is perfect for ladies who love a delicate plum, rose and patchouli scent. This is the fragrance that I wear, that the lady at the vet's office commented on how the people who work there say that I "always smell so nice", about.

For lovers of a slightly "headier" fragrance, the blend of raspberry, Bulgarian rose and sandalwood in our Little Red Dress fragrance, is sure to please.

These 2 lovely gift boxes are on sale for $25 each. They make a perfect stocking stuffer for one of the ladies in your life.

AVON doesn't leave our menfolk out, either!

Bergamot, cardamom and rich woods combine in one of AVON's classic men's fragrances, Mesmerize, and this 3 piece boxed set is only $17 .

For the man who loves lavender, spearmint and cedarwood, look no further than this Prime gift set, of  eau de toilette, after shave conditioner, and hair and body wash, on sale at $30.

Either of these boxed sets would make a welcome gift for one of the men in your life - whether hubby, son, brother or dad.

Campaign 22's A Box also makes a great gift! At only $10 with any $40 brochure order, they make another great stocking stuffer.

If you like to support a good cause when you gift shop, then take a peek at AVON's Pink Hope range, where a portion of the price of each item is donated to AVON's Breast Cancer Crusade.

Or maybe our Speak Out Against Domestic Violence cause may be closer to your heart.

Both ranges have an awesome selection of beautiful accessories that make both a statement and donate a percentage to the cause.

Do you have ladies in your life, who have feline or canine furbabies?  I bet they'd love one of these necklaces!

And they are Sterling Silver, and only $19.99 each (usually $39.99).They are engraved with the words "A true friend leaves paw prints on your heart", so perfect for those doggie and kitty mamas.

Finally, although great for ladies of all ages, I think my final picks make awesome stocking stuffers for the teens especially,as they offer plenty of colour choice, at nice prices! 

I hope you've enjoyed this preview of some of our gift ideas. I'll do another when Campaign 23 opens, so that you can browse and check them out in a relaxed, unhurried way.

Have a wonderful week!

Wheelchair AVON is fast becoming Walker AVON, LOL.

I still don't feel safe without support as the right hip just pops out any time that it feels like it, but I am definitely getting more active since getting my new walker, the rollator, back in June.

I can also SEE where I have lost the weight, between this pic taken yesterday, at the AVON Store in Fountain Inn, with our coach and Division Head, who came to visit us with the AVON Drive Like A Boss Car, and the one below, taken when I couldn't walk from my car into a restaurant for the AVON Academy celebration lunch, and had to be in my wheelchair.

I am just so happy to be regaining my mobility, and have lost 69lbs so far. I still have a long way to go to my goal weight, but am hoping that my increased activity will keep the momentum going.

I'd love to be able to take part in events again, I so miss them. Being in my bed 95% of the day really isn't as much fun as people think it might be. It has forced me to find new ways to work my business but also stopped me from using some that were enjoyable for me.

Just wanted to share my before and afters though, quite chuffed with myself.

Oh I LOVE it!!!!! The AVON Mini Cooper Visited Fountain Inn Today

Today has been an awesome day! The SouthEastern Division Manager, Janette Wilson and our local AVON Coach, Lane Lake, visited the AVON Store in Fountain Inn today and brought with them, the AVONMobile that one lucky rep in our Division will win in the Drive Like  Boss incentive going on right now. 

It's a really cute Mini Cooper Convertible. We were all really excited and had our pics taken with it. I just LOVE those lashes!

Personally, I think being in the driver's seat really suited me! LOL.

Some of the ladies went for a ride!

My upline Glori, Janette, Lane, and one of my team leaders, Jenn, let me take a pic of them all together.

It was a really beautiful day and we all had a lot of fun.

Glori's daughter, Paige, struck a model pose for us all.

We earn entries for doing a variety of things, so the more we achieve, the more entries we will earn. I'd love to have you help me earn some entries.

You can place an order through my website www.youravon.com/rosemarydempsey

If you've been considering becoming an AVON representative yourself, simply go to my Sell AVON tab and help me grow my team (and become eligible to earn entries for yourself, as well as earn points towards our Cruise Like A Boss incentive (where everybody who earns it, GOES!)

Likewise, if you have friends who love our products, or have considered joining AVON, please give them my links, if you're not becoming a rep yourself. I'd really appreciate it.

If you have any questions at all, just email me at rosesavonshoppe@aol.com, I'm aways happy to answer.

Have a wonderful weekend!

It's Always About Performance

When a man goes to look at a car, he's looking for performance. 0 to 60 in so many seconds, the  particular benefits of the engine size, the stereo system, all the bells and whistles. Sadly, they can't always afford that Maserati on a Mini or Kia paycheck ... so they then look at what they can afford, that's within their budget, with as many of the features that the more expensive vehicle has, but at a cheaper price.

You can apply the same idea to skin care. You are looking for performance, you want the product to take care of the particular issue that it claims to, whether it's fine lines, age spots or discolouration, lifting or moisturizing, nobody likes wasting money on something that doesn't work.

You can find products that work just as well as AVON's in department stores, but you'll pay twice to three times as much, and AVON's Research and Development Division has been at the forefront of many of the "discoveries" of the past 20-30 years, in the skin care field. It's actually a sign of how good they are, when competitors bring out a product of similar formulation, to deal with the same skin issues, and package it in a similar way to ours! It has long been said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Unfortunately, not everyone stands behind their skin care products the way that AVON does. You have a 90 day 100% money back guarantee if you are dissatisfied in any way.

What does that mean?

Well, maybe you use it for 14-28 days and you really don't feel that it has given you the results that you were looking for. That's ok. Just return it, and you'll get a refund, or you can get something else in exchange.

You don't normally have problems but you tried something, and the very first time you used it, you got blotchy, or maybe it irritated your skin and made you itch. It's ok, not everybody can use every item. Just return it. You have not wasted your money on a product you'll throw away.

So, I hope you'll take a look at Campaign 22's Insider's Guide To Skin Care brochure and know that you can buy in confidence. Just go here to browse your copy.

Feel free to email me at rosesavonshoppe@aol.com with any questions, I'm always happy to answer.

Oh ... and if you place an order of $25 or more, just use code RA2510 for free shipping on that order!
