CEW Awards Finalists and former Avon Lady

Here are all the CEW Beauty Awards Finalists.  I’m totally shocked by one brand in particular,  I’ve been steering way clear of it but that is going to change.  Any company that can get 9 spots in the CEW finals is something I need to pay more attention to!  Guess there’s no point in beating around the bush – it’s Avon! 

I used Skin-So-Soft when I was in the Navy way back when, it was the only thing that would keep the mosquitoes off me while on the flight deck.  The product was great but I don’t do the party business scene, I’ve dabbled with it, but  you know it’s just not my thing. 

I also don’t do well with the catalog door to door aspect, although I was truly tempted after reading Birdie Jaworski’s Avon Lady Blog (traipse through the archives, it’s just too funny, I wish she’d morph into a beauty blogger again!)  Birdie’s book is also available through her website – be sure to check it out.   

I’ve highlighted my picks, some got two picks while others got none…
