18 household uses for AVON bubble bath..suprised?

Samantha Mainprize, February 3, 2012

Don't buy expensive, harsh cleaning products. Try what many Avon customers are using and discover what they claim as an excellent substitute to your current brand. You will be amazed at the many uses of "Avon Bubble Bath".


1. Cleans chandeliers, lights and windows.
2. Cleans and shines mirrors, glass, china and your most prized ornaments without damage.
3. Cleans appliances such as stoves, fridges, toasters, kettles and microwaves.
4. Cleans dust on plant leaves - leaves them shiny, keeps bugs off and you can use the leftover solution to fertilize the plant.
5. Cleans floors, especially no-wax floors (hardwood, laminate, etc.), cuts grease and leaves no dull residue - shines with a just-waxed look.
6. Cleans spills and spots on upholstery, fabric and carpets. Just dab STRAIGHT on a damp cloth and rub the spot. DON'T WET WITH WATER! You will find no mark where the spot was.
7. A great jewellry cleaner - cleans both costume and real gold and silver.
8. It's a car wash - add 1 or 2 capfuls to a 4-litre bucket of water and then rinse. Leaves no streaks or hard water marks on your vehicle.
9. It's a pet shampoo, not a soap and therefore will not irritate. Rinse your pet after shampooing and your pet will look and smell great.
10. Use to clean delicate drapes and sheers.
11. Cleans venetian blinds - simply rub with a cloth damp with Avon Bubble Bath solution.
12. Laundry detergent: Just one or two capfuls will do a full load of laundry. Safe to use on clothes to prevent fading of colours. Great for work clothes too (cuts grease), lingerie or fine washables.
13. Have you ever splattered bacon grease on a blouse only to find that after laundering, the spots are still there? Just rub straight Avon Bubble Bath on the spots then launer as usual.
14. Cleans walls and ceilings: panelled walls will look waxed.
15. Cleans reading glasses - they'll be streak free.
16. Put it in a potpourri burner mixed with water - makes the room smell great. Vanilla and Peach are the most populal for this.
17. Clean your cupboards - oak, melamine or painted. Just dilute 1 capful into a small bucket (2 litres) of warm water, wipe down cupboards - cleans the dust, fingerprints and grease. Leaves them shiny and it is gentle on your hands.
18. It's gentle as a bubble bath, even for a child. Just pour one or two capfuls under running water. Even better, it leaves no bathtub ring.

As you can see it is so much more than a bubble bath!

How it all started

Samantha Mainprize, January 25, 2012

It was a sunny day in June 2011....we needed extra money, I was bored, and I needed something to get my teeth into!
I have always wanted my own business but never had the money to do it, I wasn't prepared to take any financial risk, and I needed something to fit around my family. I couldn’t change jobs as my hubby works away a lot so there was no way of knowing when he would be away and when he would be at home.  I wasn't one to reply on baby sitters or child minders.  I wanted to bring my children up, to see them grow into adults and for them to now I would always be there.  I guess I wanted my cake and to eat it (nothing new there) but I am strong headed and I know what I want and what I don’t want!

As I have got older, I have got even more head strong and to be honest I find it quite difficult to work for other people if I don’t agree with how they do things or the actions they take!  I aren’t a 'yes sir - no sir person' . To be honest, it may sound bad but if it isn’t going to go my way then it isn’t going to happen at all!

This makes me sound like a very pig headed person, even spoilt maybe, but that’s who I am and I take pride in the fact that unless I believe 100% in what I am doing (or what others require me to do) then I quit.  If I am asked to go against something I truly believe is right then I feel sick to the stomach!

I used to do AVON years ago but I got bored, I had little support and no motivation. It wasn't Avons at fault, it was mine, I wasn't ready for running my own business. But with a fire in my belly and seeing Debbie Davis on YouTube being interviewed on GMTV because she had reached £250,000 in earning from AVON, I couldn’t believe it!  Gail Reynolds, another Avon Rep earn £30,000 EVERY THREE weeks! 
This truly set my world upside down....why? because in my mind all their success was down to their own hard work, they started Avon paying £15 as I did, they sell the same products as I do and they started Sales Leadership as I have.  They all started the same as I have...so if she can do it...then I can!
Don’t get me wrong...they are the minority but they are living proof it can be done.  Why I love Avon, for me personally, is because whether I succeed or fail it will be down to me. No one else will be responsible.  I am in charge or my own success...I am in charge of my own business!
To cut a long story short, I started in June last year as an AVON Rep and Started Sales Leadership straight away!  I was officially ‘a recruiter’,  I help people earn extra money, I train them, I mentor them.  I currently have 25 in my team and the world is my oyster!
I have a long way to go, I have lots to learn but day by day I will get there even if it kills me!
