I recently set up a Facebook page  because as an Avon Distributor -and many more like me- I would have some stock in the office including ex demo items and older stock no longer in the brochure. I have a big team and was getting requests from my Representatives asking for some of their favourites that had been discontinued. Sometimes I could help but more often I was asking fellow Distributors if they had what I needed. I had seen the same pages on Facebook for the UK and US so decided to set up an Irish one.
You can get in touch by finding me on Facebook at Avon Ireland Discontinued Stock Finder and posting up what item you the need or use the Contact button on the page.  Our story has been featured on the popular blogging site Anita's Beauty Blog

Tiny Tillia by AVON is a world of charming new baby products.

Tiffany Lerman founded the company in 2006.
She is the daughter of best-selling author Jackie Collins.
Having struggled to find a bath and body line that was not only safe and effective but a pleasure to use, she decided to use her imagination and create something entirely unique and invented Tiny Tillia.

There's even a cast of lovable characters like Dilly Pig and Duncan Dog.

This new range of products is sure to delight all our customers and boost sales in the busy Christmas period.

For Representatives it is also a great way to boost your earnings, why not plan an AVON party featuring the Tiny Tillia range?

Invite all your friends, mums, aunties, grandmothers or as many people you can find, If you have any friends who are expecting a baby -have a 'Baby Shower'.
This could be a great experience to show the range to many more people and a good opportunity to purchase a gift for the expectant mother. 

I will have a some of the products available in the Christmas Party Kit and anyone who wishes to host or have parties during the 4th quarter should email avoncarlow@gmail.com or call 087 6443961 to pre-book their party dates now.
