Some helpful info to pass around to Avon fans. Thanks to my former Avon lady, Julia, for this. I've used a few of these myself.

Avon's Bubble Bath Has Many Uses According to customers:
1. Zillions of bubbles that leave no bathtub ring.
2. Does a beautiful job on washing cars, mobile homes, recreation vehicles, etc.
3. Use as a laundry detergent (delicate laundry).
4. Use for hand washing.
5. Use for pre-soak on heavy soiled laundry...great for "ring around the collar."

Avon's Newest Product Closely Resembles the T-Virus from Resident Evil.

Last Friday my Avon lady gave me the new Campaign 7 catalog (March 2009) featuring their newest product. My first reaction: "OMG Avon is selling the T-Virus!" 

Then the Umbrella Commercial ad for Resident Evil: Apocalypse started playing in my head.

The product is called Derma-Full X3 Facial Filling Serum, and it looks EXACTLY like the T-Virus from Resident Evil. Needless to say, my Avon Rep wasn't amused when I tried to explain the humor in it. Plus, my co-workers looked at me like I had lobsters crawling out of my ears when I went all "geek" about it.

But let's compare shall we?

I don't see any difference! Even the "doctor" placed in the Avon ad sells the whole "Umbrella scientist look." All she needs now is a little Umbrella logo on her lab coat.

The comparison hasn't gone unnoticed by far. It's been all over the internet: You Tube, Geekologie, and even (go figure) totallylookslike.com just to name a few.

I told my Avon Rep (who sits not 5 ft from me everyday) how much attention it's gained, she just gave a false little laugh then went about her business. Pft, she's no fun!

Anyway, I'm anxious to see if Avon sales will boost because of this. I think they should rethink their marketing strategies, unless their goal is to bring about the zombie apocalypse before the Canadians do.

Have a good weekend!!!

Umbrella Commercial just for fun!
