IT WAS A DOUBLE WHAMMY FOR AVON, THE PLANET'S BEST DIRECT-SELLING COMPANY WITH 6 MILLION 'AVON LADIES' AND A FEW 'AVON MEN' ACROSS THE GLOBE AND SOME 40,000 IN MALAYSIA.
The national Avon convention was also held at Marriott Putrajaya's vast ballroom and the lipstick launch was on the second day. Around 800 Avon agents thronged the cavernous ballroom to receive their rewards for another hugely successful year in 2013.
Fazura the nationally acclaimed actress brought the roof down when she appeared in a spectacularly ballgown created for the occasion by designer to the stars Rizman Ruzaini with a skirt so voluminous it reminded me of Scarlett O'Hara's triumphant descent on the grand staircase in the plantation mansion Tara.
The all-white dress with stunning bejewelled breast plate also reminded me of a bride and Fazura agreed, "Yes, I am married to Avon!" she beamed.
This is the second time Fazura is helming the face of Avon. Three years ago she represented Avon's fragrance range. "Now I am promoting Ultra Colour Absolute Lipstick which is the best lipstick I have ever used! It is a must-have in every handbag!" exclaimed the silver screen siren, looking ravishing in Red Velvet which by chance was the very shade I selected earlier! What a coincidence! Great minds think alike since the adage 'fools seldom differ' does not apply to Fazura and Kee Hua Chee who are both brainy beauties.
I asked Fazura which is her favorite color since there are 10 shades.
Crooned the sultry siren, "I love them all! I have no favorite! Just like a mother who loves ALL her children equally, I intend to use all 10 shades on a rotational basis. These creamy lipsticks are loaded with moisturisers, conditioners and anti-oxidants and continue to work even after I take it off. Did you know 4 Avon lipsticks are sold every second throughout the world? Avon makes the world's best lippies!" added the newly appointed spokeswoman doing her sales spiel.
Each lippy costs RM 20. Actually the price is RM 19.90 but 99.9% of buyers do not insist on asking the 10 sen change so Avon might as well round up the price to RM 20!
Avon is also dangling some serious carrots for customers and dealers---a Perodua Viva S car, 30 other main prizes and 5,000 product prizes in the 'Scratch and Win' contest!
