Avon is always cooking up amazing concoctions for making our skin happy. The latest, their Reversalist Illuminating Eye System and Renewal Day Cream SPF 25, seems to do just that.
I gave them a try for a few days, but my mom quickly scooped them up from under me. Apparently, she'd wanted the products since she heard of them.
Let me tell you a little about my mom: she's tried every single anti-aging product out there. She knows what she loves and knows what she hates. Her skin is fabulous (with just a few wrinkles here and there).
So, she gave the pair a try. First up was the Renewal Day Cream. My mom found that it really seemed to improve the texture and overall tone of your skin. She felt it made a perfect canvas for applying her usual makeup. Also, while it worked it that way, she also saw a noticeable change in her skin--her wrinkles had gone down a bit and her face looked "glowy".
Even though that product was great, my mom's fave of the set was the Illuminating Eye System. It actually took her a little bit to figure out that it is a two-step process and that there is a hidden concealer-esque product on top. But she got the hang of it and was amazed. The "concealer" product on top is actually the sheer veil, which she loved most. It's a tiny bit shimmery and can cover-up and highlight your eyes; basically the outcome is that your eyes look brighter.
A trick she learned was to apply this on top of her eye lids instead of a normal eye shadow primer. She has a lot of problems with eyeshadow creasing, and so far this has been the only product that has made her eyelids look totally smooth.
The products seem amazing--my mom's already asked me the price and gotten an avon lady!!
