New Avon Catalog video up on my channel!! 💖th-cam.com/video/7U4oRp2cwSw/w-d-xo.html
I was a kid in the late 70's & every girl I knew wore Sweet Honestly. We all loved the little jars of cream sachet, pins with solid perfumes, scented body powders, all very popular
They should bring it back. I also use sweet honesty. Lip glosses and many other product. I heard an Asian company bought Avon. I remember the TV commercials with the ding dong thing of door. Avon calling. My aunt was a rep. And so did I. If was nice and fun.
Yup born in 78 but the solid perfume s is were awesome
I Loved Sweet Honesty! Wore it back in the 70s
Sweet Honesty doesn't smell like it used to..it's no longer light and sweet😢😢
As a little girl in the 70's, I remember most of these items. So nice that a young lady like yourself has an appreciation for it also :)
My dad always wore the Indian Cheiftain cologne my mom got from Avon in the 70’s. He passed in 2010. In 2015, I went to a yard sale, and found some, full bottle in original box. The lady had it marked for $3. I told her why I was buying it, because the smell reminded me of my dad when I was a child. She gave it to me for free. I literally cried at her gesture. It meant more to me than anything!
That is so sweet! Thank you for sharing! ❤️
crying at your comment... that is sweet
*_Precious!!!_*
That was really sweet
They could never make that bottle now or use the word ‘Indian’ instead of ‘Native American.’ People would cry, “racist” or “cultural appropriation.”
Wish Avon would bring back all these neat items!
Yes, me too!
Yes, especially for us guys and kids! 😁😁😁😁😁
@@dariowiter3078 Mre too!!!
@@anndaniels3545 😁😁😁😁😁 👍👍👍👍👍
Back then Avon was so unique in the packaging. Avon today just has no personality it's boring. Thank you for this it was so fun to watch this.😊❤
I loved Avon Honeysuckle. Thank you for the trip down memory lane.
Oh my gosh! The strawberry bottle and the kitten soaps are so cute!
Yes! They had the cutest stuff!
I was a Avon lady in the mid 70's. This catalog brought back so many good memories! Thank you for walking down memory lane with me. I wish all this would come back.
Thank you for sharing! I have another Avon catalog video coming next week! 💕
Those vintage bottles are so much prettier than the modern ones💜 I love vintage beauty products glad your video popped up in my feed new sub here💞
I agree! I love the designs of vintage beauty products! Cool, thank you!
@@BeautyShan82944 You're welcome🥰
I do remember that book! I'm 60- I had the 🍓 cologne! I still have some Avon , such memories! ⛅⛅
Cool! Love it! 💕
Hi Laura! Do you remember dew kiss lip balm and the Pink moisturizing bar? I grew up on Avon in the 70's 👋👋
@@anndaniels3545 Yep, I remember dew 💋 kiss. My mom got lipstick, & me flavors of lip balm. Avon has good memories, but now I just order a few basic things like shampoo or sweet honesty💗
@@lauraswihart4816 wow girl! I guess I need to Google AVon for products!💝
I am 65 and remember these well! I loved sweet honesty but it didn't mix with my body chemistry, my dad said it smelled like dirty feet! Well I appreciated his honesty lol
I had tons of this. Almost 60 now and remember my red calico kitty pin-pal fragrance glacé! Nice memories.
I love collecting vintage colognes!., You can tell from the photos that everything that was done in those days was done with love, delicacy and passion!
Boy, I haven't seen this catalog since that time period! 👍👍👍👍👍 😁😁😁😁😁
THANK YOU i absolutely loved this ! i grew up with avon and i was so excited when the avon lady come over with moms order and drop off new catalogues .my entire big long dresser was entirely covered in perfume bottle girls ..they ended up making clothes too literally everything
Cool memory Jillian!!
That is awesome! Love that!
I remember so many things from that catalog. In early teens I wore Sweet Honesty and moved up to the Honeysuckle. Wow have not thoughtful Avon in years and now realize how I miss it. Thanks for posting!
Great video! I was 14 in 74. My mom had an Avon lady, she would leave samples of lipstick, the different fragrances and so much more.... great memories! I also have an Avon lady but it's not like it used to be, she doesn't offer samples, just a money back guarantee and it takes forever to receive my order, plus everything is so expensive! I miss the good old days!
The design was so much better, just looking at these items we can feel the soul in them. They are so beautiful 😍 💖
Aww I wish I would have kept my catalog I also wish they would come back with these items love them
Enjoyed this. My Mom had the same Avon Lady ,I was 12, until my thirtys. I told my Mom she kept them in business smile xoxoxoxo
I have the Dutch Girl, a kitten in a basket, a bear, a green Christmas boot, and 2 dachshunds. I have a beautiful "jeweled" pocket watch style pendant that had solid perfume in it. It was my mom's and I think it might be Avon as well. I wear it on a chain sometimes. I remember so many of those items from the catalogue! 😊
That is so cool!
I HAVE BOXES UPON BOXES OF THE CARS WITH COLOGNE STILL IN THEM AND HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO WITH THEM, LOL! MY MOTHER-IN-LAW USE TO SELL AVON AND SAID THESE WOULD BE WORTH MONEY SOME DAY....
Nice! My dad had a few of the Avon car colognes as collector pieces!
Hawaiian White GInger was a fave of mine and my fave all time perfume is Avon's Fantasque. I'd love to get my hands on that someday.
I got my Spring decorations out today, and I came across two 1984 Avon porcelain Bunny salt, and pepper shakers.
I miss Avon. I loved it when the Avon lady came to the door.
Bonne Bell was also sold door to door.
lol - fun trip down memory lane. I had the cola bottle lip gloss and the orange kitty-cat perfume pin.
I miss those old Avon brochures and the prices
I was pretty young when this would have been out, but I do remember some of those items and I had a few of them. I loved Avon and the little tiny lipsticks were the coolest sample. I wish I had all my little decanters and so on, but it was gotten rid of long ago. Thank you for sharing!
That is cool! Glad you enjoyed it!
Patty! I used to get the lipstick little white tubes as a tot from my Mom 🌸
I had so many lip balms from Avon- I still get some from Etsy. They have some cool stuff! 🍓🍰
I'm from England 🇬🇧 my nana had that glass pineapple with lotion in. It was in the kitchen next to the sink. My mum has it now. It's nearly 50 years old + still going strong - although with different lotion in 😂 my mum had the snail too . My auntie was an avon lady + made a good living from it. My Nana + my auntie are dead now but I always think of them when I see vintage avon .Every Xmas everyone got avon because of my auntie- as soon as anyone went to her house they got a book thrust in their face + she made them order 😂 love the old catalogues ❤ The bottles were fab back then I wish I still had them all I only have a few now. My favorites are a glass apple that had red bubble bath in + a cat with a fan + a fancy 👗 😂 I have a couple of the glacè pins too
Back in the fifties, we lived in the country and had an Avon rep. Mom always bought things. She gave her samples. Later in life, I sold Avon. I won the musical bride doll for outselling anyone in my district. I'm thinking about selling since I don't have anyone to leave it to.
This was fun.
Hey Avon, please bring back Moonwind cologne...that stuff was amazing 🤗
I have a bottle of moon wind if anyone remembers that one back in the early 70s on small wage these were a bit expensive. Thanks for trip down memory lane
I had the sweet gingerbread house perfume bottle, I loved it!! 🤎
I miss some of the older fragrances, I wish they would bring them back.
Thanks Hon for your video!! I have so many memories of Avon growing up. When I was about 4, my Mom would have a neighbor friend come by w her Avon samples and catalogues, I would lay on the floor looking at the pictures in these catalogues! Then she always left me those teeny fairy size lipsticks!! Anyone remember those? Later on we'd always get stocking stuffers Avon 🌹💐👈🌸 the DEW KISS LIP TUBE WAS THE BOMB...I sold Avon as a young woman and I sure miss their PINK BAR SOAP it smelled sooo good and left your skin petal soft! Do they still make it I wonder ? Thanks for the stroller down memory lane 🌸💐🌹🤩💋💥🥰😻💮🍨🦄🦋
That is so cool! I don’t have any Avon lipsticks yet but I love collecting Avon and wish they had the same things available today! ❤️
@@BeautyShan82944 how sweet! Thanks for responding Shannon! The teeny tubes of 💄 were precious! Also as a 5 year old I had the plastic moo pin blue cow w perfume balm pin, I think I used it all in 1 day but took it for show and tell 😅🥰😍
Soap on a rope ! It was so hard to avoid ! In high school halls, all we smelled was Brut and English Leather.....WoW.....an aphrodisiac if I ever got to smell again, for sure ! What a ubiquitous gift it was ! Think of the money put up every month for a lovely new catalogue to be published ! Just to see that photo set up in the yard with the white birdcage and bottle featured....what it all cost......wow.....did we appreciate it all? For me, it was all so unattainable.....I’d spend over my profits, not having the volume....of sales.....but what a pretty nice-smelling lovely fun distraction for me during The Baby Years.....Avon and LeLeche League meetings were my entire social life and how I loved Both - from organic no-sugar Moms to frivolous beauty fun!
I’ve been selling Avon since 1986 and we still have the little lipstick samples!
I remember buying the evergreen Christmas scent because we had started buying artificial Christmas trees that year! I remember how beautiful our house smelled. I think I remember the following year they came out with bayberry candle scent and I bought ten spray cans of it! I haven’t been able to find a scent that was so full of Christmas spirit and fun til this day!
I was given so many of these vintage cologne bottles growing up. I wish they'd bring back these scents! (Sachet is pronounced sash-say ;) not sash-et). Thanks for the sweet stroll down memory lane!
Ok this is my childhood! My mom even sold Avon in the sixties! They had a sample case with product ms and this round blue box with tiny little lipstick sample bullets. I was mesmerized by those samples. I’m pretty sure that’s what sparked my love of makeup!
Love that! Thank you for sharing!
Really enjoyed seeing this. I remember buying from Avon in the 70's. Someone bought me that daschund perfume bottle for Christmas that year, and my stupid boyfriend dropped it, and it smashed 🤣
I love Hawaiian White Ginger! It was my first perfume love as a child, rather than Sweet Honest. I had a demistick. after that Moonwind in the dutch girl!
Thank you so much for the memories! The avon lady was a highlight of our week.
My mother was at Avon lady back in the 70s she would get her order every Saturday and I remember her unpacking it. She would also get special prices to buy and I got a lot of the decanters and Avon stuff. I just donated a bunch to Goodwill in the thrift Mart because cellar on the Bay or ST
So cool! Love looking through the pages with you!
Thank you for sharing this Avon Catalog. My daughter was just born in 1974. I remember many of the items. Have a nice day!
I love it. My mom sold Avon when I was in Kindergarten in 1977-78. She used to take me with her sometimes and go door to door or drop off orders. I also had a lot of the little girl jewelry, perfumes, decanters, lip gloss/stick, soaps and the toys. I have only one or two of the perfume bottles left.
Thanks for sharing!!
Avon'd jewelry was always made so well. May mom, my Aunt in England and I were all AVON Representatives. I was a bottle and jewelry collector. I truly love them Christmas Tree Broaches they put our once a year. I could write a book about my love for Avon. I'm so happy you love it too.
I loved wearing Wish Bone crème.
Avon is awesome..
Avon~we would like to go back down memory lane...
My first deodorant was from
Avon in 1984, I was ten and thought I was grown!😂
My first deodorant from the 70s was Ban roll on….I still remember it running down my sides!
TFS! I like seeing the vintage items. Your page turning is perfect!
I remember the A on representative used to come to your home They always left lots of samples. Our world is so different now.
Oh wow! I remember the doggie too! My mom still has the snow bird. Those creams smelled so good. I remember a lotion called desert flower. Mom would put it on my hands. It smelled kind of dry been sweet and powdery. I really enjoyed this video. Brought back so many warm memories.
Oh wow, I remember these products. I was a teen at that time. I remember the bird nest soaps, the little white chair with the pink cushion too. Had those lip pops. The astringent in the white bottle. My brother had the zwild zcountry cologne, and my little brother had the Snoopy brush and comb set. My mom's BFF was our Avon lady. Thank you for the trip down memory lane!
I loved the decanters. I have a unicorn and a mermaid. I have the vanity jar in your catalog. I loved when my mom or my nana let me pick out something from the catalog.
I have the pineapple! Didn’t realize it was Avon! And Mom used to get me the little sachets in pins..I still have my kangaroo pin.
Very cool! I just found the pineapple perfume bottle at an antique store and picked it up! 🍍
The blush was great. I got cute jewelry from them too.
My mom sold Avon back in the 70s !! Thanks for sharing, blast from the past!!😊
Reminds me of my mum she used to buy Avon I loved looking at the catalogues when I was a kid ❤️🇬🇧 I remember soap on a rope perhaps not so old fashioned it's better for the environment
My grandparents bought a lot of Avon. I was gifted several rubbermaid containers full of Avon decanters all with their contents. 💝🌸✌🏽
Thank you for bringing back memories ❤
I loved the honeysuckle perfume...
I remember some of this that my grandmother had!! So cool!
Such memories. How fun. Thank you.
Avon jewelry now SUX unless its sterling. But back in the days prior to 1990s it was AWESOME. remember the great holiday decor and home decor collectables they had..now it's like Ehhh
So cool!! I love this!!
Thankyou! I spotted some of the avon items i have, and this brought back memories🥰
Thanks for sharing this! My mom had a friend that sold Avon and we always had it around and I loved looking thru the catalogues. My brothers had that Indian head cologne pictured in this one! Such fun stuff
So cute! Thanks for sharing that. Brings back wonderful memories! 😊
6:29 yay! I saw the Topaze bottle. My mom still has that bottle on her curio case with all the whimsy figurines of porcelain and lead crystal. I love nthe vintage catalog. Thank you so much for sharing. I recently bought a bottle of Topaze from Avon and it smells just as sweet as I remembered. 🌼🌞☺️
So amazing catalog. Thank you!
Omg! I had all of those lip pops! I can still remember the scent ❤❤❤❤❤
I toppled my mom's highboy trying to get her Here's My Heart. Sonnet, Moonwind 7 Sweet Honesty were faves, too. I loved the sample boxes of perfumes and lipsticks.
This video bought back so many good memories
I have always loved Avon. My mom and I bought and my sister in law sold it. She did well. As well as her mom. They won awards.
Thank you. That was simply wonderful to see. ❤️
Shannon, thank you for sharing ❤your video with me and I enjoyed it
Loved those old Avon days!
I love avon. Beautiful.
Wow, most of my favorite bottles are all in this catalog! I was a kid then and remember it all. Not sure if you realized that the crystal looking cologne bottle turned into a candlestick. Avon made a lot of those. I have a set of red ones I use at Christmas. I had a little chuckle when you said sachit. It's sashay.😊
Wow this took me back! I sold Avon when I was 16 in high school. Would have been 1977-78. I remember almost everything in that catalog, haha
omg!! I’m in my early 20s and collect vintage makeup/beauty products and I have that snoopy brush on the back cover in my collection!
We had so many of the items in this catalog!
I still have that Snoopy brush and comb. I loved all the kids items that my mom used to buy! I’m an Avonrep and we don’t have a kids line anymore
Haha, saw the title and said to myself immediately,”Been there, done that”! I loved shopping their books. Had an Avon Lady come to the house every couple of weeks! ❤❤
I’m five min in, wondering if my favorite, Arianna, will be invented yet ! When my rep/boss came to introduce me to sell the line, she smelled so good wearing this brandynew Arianna scent......I got and sold it, too, never a big clientele, I liked it, but, as we know happens, it never smelled so delicious on me ! I Loved the monthly meetings...(I was a blessed Mo. of 2 beautiful babies under 3....) Loved the ‘prize’ every month, just couldn’t get the sales, (which WAS The Point!) being mostly home with a nursing baby and her brother! Thank You. This was Fun ! Surprised how I enjoyed it...maybe partly bc you don’t overpower our pleasure in browsing; you remain calm and pleasant throughout....
Do you mean Ariane? I had that one but I don’t remember an Arianna.
I enjoyed this video .. Thanks so much for posting it! I recall some of those items from the 70s - I had one of the beautiful swan bottle perfumes. Avon don't sell here in Australia anymore 🙁, which is a little sad. Always great fun browsing their catalogues. Thanks so much for this trip down memory lane ✨🌸💄
That’s great! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I used to like peach cologne I think it was called, I loved the top as it was a peach. I wish I’d kept it. I’m 61 and your video brings back so many memories. Avon don’t do the unique bottles anymore. Maybe they should have a retro sale and we could buy them again
It was pretty peach and it was the fragrance for a little girl
Thank you for sharing 💖 I have some items from catalog.👍❤
What a cool piece of history. Avon was known for their beautiful bottles for their scents and lotions.
The year I was born🎉
I had all the Cola lip pops!
i was waiting to see the lip balms that was my absolute favorite thing
Dew kiss lip balm, if they still make you should get
This was taking a walk down memory lane!! I used to sell Avon
Omg I had that brush!!!
I wish I had an my grandmother's old avon things and catalogs. My dad had an auction and so much was going on I didn't get to go through all her things and keep much. Also at the time this stuff was not as popular. I would of love to share all the stuff for people to see.
We had those little brushes in the back pockets of our Levi’s
I have the flower maiden calone my grandmother Mary got in the 1980s. She was born in 1916 she saw so much in her lifetime she died tragically in 2014. I miss her and my Grandfather John 1896 soo much. im their only grandaughter.
I remember some of these. This was a good way for young teens and stay at home mom's (they were called housewives) could earn extra money.
i have quite a few of these things lol i always wondered if i would be able to pin point them in time
So THAT'S where my grandmum's pineapple lotion decanter came from! 😍
Love looking through 5he old Avon catalogue. For the young they use to do pretty peach. Do you remember I use to love it
