Avon makeup

The below collection of makeup terms are assembled to help you increase your vocabulary to help you talk about makeup and color cosmetics.

— A —

Acetone
A colorless organic chemical used in nail polish remover, acetone works by softening and dissolving polymer molecules in polishes, gels, and acrylics.

Angled Brush
An angled brush is a makeup brush with slanted bristles, designed for the precise application and blending of various makeup products, including eyeshadow, eyeliner, and brow pomades.

Application Techniques
Application techniques refer to the various methods and skills that makeup artists use to apply makeup products effectively and efficiently. These include blending, stippling, and building color.

Applicator
An applicator is a tool, such as a brush, sponge, or wand, used to apply makeup products to the face or body.

— B —

Bake / Baking
Putting a thick layer of loose translucent powder on your face for several minutes, causing your body heat to be trapped against your skin, which “bakes” (sets) the powder and any cream or liquid products under the powder. After baking, brush away excess powder.

Base
Refers to the skincare preparations and eyeshadow primer you apply before you begin makeup, or it can refer to the basic first layers of face makeup (primer, foundation, concealer, and brows).

BB Cream
A liquid or cream product with sheer coverage used over the entire face, typically in place of foundation. Similar to a tinted moisturizer.

Beauty Blender
A name-brand version of a makeup sponge. Because it is original and popular, many people call all makeup sponges “beauty blenders,” even if they aren’t by the Beauty Blender brand.

Blend
The act of blending out a powder or cream product onto the face to avoid harsh lines. You can blend foundation and face products into the skin with brushes or sponges. You can also blend eyeshadow on your eyelid, crease, and brow bone. Blending is important to achieve a seamless, gradient look.

Blush
A cream or powder that makes the cheeks a pink or reddish color.

Bronzer
Powder or cream product in a shade slightly darker than complexion that brings definition and warmth to the face.

Brows
Short for eyebrows. Help frame the entire face. Many products and styles are used to enhance brows.

Brow Pencil
Product resembling a pencil or pen that is filled with product designed to match hair color. Used to fill in eyebrows and draw fine hairs.

Brow Pomade
Small jar of cream product that is used to define eyebrows. Used with a brow brush (small, angled makeup brush) and spoolies.

Brushes
General term for all sorts of makeup brushes, including eyeshadow brushes, large powder brushes, spoolie brushes, and more.

— C —

Concealer
A liquid or cream (often in a stick form) that conceals or hides blemishes, freckles, dark spots, acne, etc.

Contour
Using a product several shades darker than your complexion to define areas of your face and create the illusion of shadows. Typically matte, the product is used below the cheekbones, on the nose, forehead, and jawline.

Color Correcting
Using a colored cream or liquid product, typically a concealer, with color theory in order to negate the effects of discolored skin. Example: green color corrector helps cover red inflammation or acne, since the colors are complimentary on the color wheel.

Cream
CC cream can mean “color correcting” cream, or can indicate a product similar to BB cream with slightly more coverage.

Crease (Eye)
Area of eyelid that curves above your eye and below your brow bone where the skin folds.

Dupe / Duplicate
Dupe is short for duplicate. Dupes refer to makeup products that are very similar to another product, but are typically less expensive than the original.

Fake Makeup

#ShopSmall but … Is Avon a legitimate direct sales company or a pyramid scheme?

Small Business Saturday® is Coming!

I am part of the Shop Small Movement!  I’m proud to be part of this annual event to encourage holiday shoppers to shop my local, small New Jersey business

I am here to also introduce direct selling as a way to discover the freedoms of owning your own small business. I’ve been a successful direct seller for over 13 years and have built a nice side-gig that yields me additional income!

Making Money from Home

Unfortunately the industry has been tarnished by unscrupulous people promoting fraudulent and unsustainable sales pitches luring unsuspecting people while taking their hard-earned money. If you are looking for an opportunity to work from home and have heard the pitches about earning bigs dollars, I’m here to tell you…first, it can be hard to distinguish the real work-at-home businesses;  second, any “get rich quick” or “easy money” pitch should be viewed with caution; and third, don’t forget to do thorough research and ask important questions BEFORE you get involved in any business opportunity.

What is a Pyramid Scheme?

Pyramid schemes are illegal and fraudulent systems where making money is more centered around recruiting and signing up other people than selling products. Since there are only a limited number of people in a given community, most people will never make money. Steer clear of these type of potential scammers!

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation’s consumer protection agency, works to prevent fraudulent, deceptive and unfair business practices in the marketplace. I encourage educating yourself by reading the FTCs – Multi-Level Marketing Businesses and Pyramid Schemes. Another United States federal government agency, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), works to protect investors and the securities markets, and facilitate capital formation. More information can learned by reading the SECs – Beware of Pyramid Schemes Posing as Multi-Level Marketing Programs.

What I Know

The Avon Company is the leading social selling beauty company in North America, with independent sales Representatives throughout the United States and Puerto Rico. Avon’s product portfolio includes award-winning skin care, color cosmetics, fragrance and personal care products, featuring iconic brands such as ANEW, Skin So Soft, belif, CHI, and The Face Shop, as well as home essentials, fashion and accessories. Avon has a 135-year history of empowering women through economic opportunity, and supporting the causes that matter most to women. Avon philanthropy has contributed over $800 million to breast cancer and other important causes. Avon is a proud member of the Direct Selling Association (DSA) and strongly supports their CODE OF ETHICS. The DSA’s Code of Ethics is a robust series of policies that every DSA member agrees to follow as a condition of membership. It holds member companies accountable for policies that protect independent salespeople and consumers and encourages the entire marketplace for direct selling to meet these high standards.

In an attempt to be fair and transparent, here is what I know about Avon’s business principles:

  • The Avon business model does not rely on nor does it encourage sales of inventory, training or business support materials between Representatives. The core of our business model is Representatives selling our products to an end consumer. A representative’s compensation is tied to their sales. As sales level increase, commissions may increase. Representatives set their own hours as well as their sales goals, and their commissions are based on product sales.
  • Avon has reasonable return policies. Representatives are not left holding excess inventory. Avon offers its customers 45 days from the date of purchase to return their product to their Avon Representative. Avon allows a Representative 60 days from the date of purchase to return a product.
  • Avon limits earnings to three generations. The Avon Leadership opportunity offers rewards and bonuses for building your team and increasing sales. Avon offers opportunities and bonuses to expand Representative’s earnings potential. But Avon does not promise commissions on infinite sales but promotes and incentivize Representatives based on their own sales and their teams’ sales.

When I get questions about direct selling, I say to them: At its best, direct selling is “I tried the product. I liked the product. I recommend it to a friend.” If you are considering entering direct sales (or ‘social selling’) here are three tips to remember:

  • Like the product! Make sure it’s a product you use and enjoy yourself. You can be a beauty influencer, skin care expect, sharing and selling to friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers.
  • Understand the product. All good direct selling/social selling companies will provide training and mentoring support. But you should not need to invest heavily in start-up training and marketing materials. You are in control of how many hours you want to put into your business. Direct selling is for those who possess a strong work ethic and an entrepreneurial spirit.
  • Know who you are buying from and who is paying you. When ordering product for your customers, make sure you will be purchasing from the Company, not the individual who recruited you into selling. And that your earnings will be paid by the Company. Direct Selling companies that survive on recruiting new participants rather than retail sales are pyramid schemes.

My Story

I’ve always loved jewelry, cosmetics, and fashion. I have childhood memories of receiving gifts of Avon products from my godmother. I remember a classmates mother selling Avon to mine. I continued to buy Avon into adulthood through a friends’ wife and a local woman. When they stopped selling, I decided to sign up to be an Avon Independent Sales Representative for the discount and maybe even make a little extra money. Fast forward thirteen years and I have built a nice side-gig that yields additional income. I also lead the Passionately Avon Team of like-minded people that adds to this income. My success came with truly loving Avon products and the company. I enjoy helping others start their own Avon businesses and accomplish things they never thought possible.

Be an Avon Insider

Avon offers a Compensation Plan competitive to other direct selling companies. You get the ability to shop wholesale prices to help you run a successful beauty business. I’m looking for dedicated people interested in earning some extra money or getting their own Avon purchases at a discounted price. My successful team members are people who are self-motivated and have an entrepreneurial drive or mindset.

If you are interested in selling Avon’s award-winning beauty products, begin within minutes for $0 (or with one of our other sign-up options), earn 25% commission on $40+ beauty orders + unlock exclusive discounts, perks and more by going to https://bit.ly/31Qp7za. My Reference Code (nrago) links you to my team so I can coach you on the Avon tools and training to start with your own small business, included with the $0 enrollment fee! Our starter collection (currently a $30 investment) gives you an incredible set of favorite products in full and sample sizes plus product-packed brochures (catalogs) to share and help you get your beauty business started. The $0 sign-up or a contribution to the American Cancer Society* (ACS) will get you started with your own online store and digital tools, but do not include a starter collection, brochures or samples.

Connect with me so I can answer your questions or concerns, help with signing up as a representative, as well as give you tips on how to begin building your own beauty business!
