Evolution of lipsticks:
When Avon first started selling lipstick in 1919 it was sold in a metal case and only came in two shades, light and dark. In the 70s and 80s Avon incorporated the popular geometric prints and patterns into the packaging. Avon also started to bring in bold colors during this rebellious era like orange, coral, and fuchsia. Today Avon uses scientific research and a wax free formula that leaves lips feeling moisturized and plumped. Avon now sells over 400 shades of lipstick from nudes, red, peachy, corals, and purples.
Avon introduces mark. brand:
Avon launched mark. in 2003 to celebrate the "mark" young women make in the world. Avon understood that women love to be social and want to be beautiful and this is exactly what this brand represents. The mark. eyeshadow palette in neutral has often been compared to the popular urban decay naked palette. The clothing from mark. is made in junior sizes to best fit younger women. The brand also features Lucy Hale from the hit TV show Pretty Little Liars as their brand ambassador. "Click Click Avon's here":
One thing your grandmother might remember from Avon is having an Avon lady knock on her door with a brochure or either her delivery. Now Avon keeps up with the growing world of technology by having an online site for customers to shop from 24/7 at their convenience. This site offers lots of deals and coupon codes including free shipping on orders over $40.
