Avon: A Cruelty Free Company

On June 2nd 1989, Avon became the first major cosmetics company to announce a permanent end to animal testing on all Avon-manufactured products.

Avon do not fund cruel &/or irrelevant animal research.

Taken from their website:

Avon is known for its leading efforts to eliminate animal testing. On June 2, 1989, Avon became the first major cosmetic company to announce a permanent end to animal testing on all Avon-manufactured products.
In place of animal testing, our safety evaluation process utilizes data from in-vitro tests (test tube/cell culture) or clinical tests (on human volunteers), and references existing animal-testing data.
Avon does not conduct animal testing on any of its products or raw ingredients and does not require that suppliers of raw ingredients and finished products produced for Avon conduct animal testing on our behalf.
Avon will conduct animal testing when required by law, at the request of government health or medical authorities, and only after having first attempted to persuade the requesting authority to accept non-animal test data.
Avon partners with other cosmetic companies to identify and develop new testing alternatives. Similarly, Avon is a long-time supporter of research into alternatives conducted by the Fund for the Replacement of Animals in Medical Experiments (FRAME) in the United Kingdom and the Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing at Johns Hopkins University in the United States.
Ongoing research on new/existing alternative methods is conducted by scientists in our Cell Biology and In Vitro Toxicology Laboratory at our Global Research and Development Center in Suffern, New York.

Ding Dong: Avon Calling!

Whilst browsing the internet earlier in search of inspirational Avon blogs; I came across a blog which outlined what they believed to be “The five biggest mistakes made by Avon Reps”.

To be fair; these are only mistakes in the authors opinion, but I couldn’t help but pick out mistake number three: ‘Wearing Avon Products’... The author claims that wearing the products (which you’re trying to sell) is the worst marketing technique because, in all their time as a Rep; they were never asked about their make-up or fragrance.

Slightly fathomed by this; I spoke to one of my clients & asked her for her thoughts: She said: Wearing the products you’re selling is an effective marketing technique, because by doing so, people can see the products in their full glory & if you’re wearing something which they like, they can purchase their own.

In my experience; people often ask me about my make-up; nail polish & on a number of occasions I’ve been asked about the fragrance I’m wearing... & so I have to say, in my personal opinion: NOT wearing the products which you’re trying to sell, would be the biggest mistake that a representative could make...


What are your thoughts?

Why Hello There!

Thank you for taking the time to view my blog; tis looking rather sparse at the moment, 
but bare with me... it won’t be for much longer...

I began blogging last September as part of my university degree & over time, I found myself becoming more involved with beauty blogging... Until today, all of my posts were presented upon the same blog ... However, as my networking has increased & I’ve found myself with an increased interest in cosmetics, I decided it was time to give my beauty blog the attention it deserves, & so I’ve given it its very own space on the internet: 

& for now, make yourself a cuppa tea & settle down...

Happy Following,

Hugs & Glitter,
