Centella Asiatica Skin Care


"Known as nature’s skin soother, Centella Asiatica, or Cica, is the new solution to redness-prone, sensitive skin. It’s more than a trendy K-beauty ingredient. It’s been used for centuries to help soothe skin. In fact, it’s nicknamed “tiger grass” because tigers roll around in it to help heal their wounds." -Avon Beyond Glow Centella

I’m excited to share my results for the Beyond Glow Centella Before & After Challenge! After using the products for three weeks, I’ve noticed a visible improvement in my skin’s overall condition.
Winter weather left my nose dry and red from frequent wiping, but the Centella-infused products provided soothing hydration, significantly reducing irritation. Additionally, I struggle with lingering redness from past acne spots, which can take a long time to fade on my fair skin. By targeting these areas with the Beyond Glow Centella Serum, I’ve seen noticeable improvement in tone and hydration.
This skincare line has been a gentle yet effective addition to my routine, and I’m impressed with the results! 🌿


I've been using Avon Beyond Glow Centella Cooling Toner throughout February, and it has become a refreshing staple in my routine. It provides an instant cooling sensation after showering and soothes my skin post-hair removal. This hydrating toner delivers quick moisture relief, calming irritation caused by dryness in seconds. A must-have for a refreshed, balanced complexion!


I've been using Avon Beyond Glow Centella Redness Relief Serum for a month, applying it to healing acne spots and redness around my nose from winter dryness. It leaves my skin feeling smoother and more hydrated with fewer flakes. Key benefit: This soothing gel serum, infused with panthenol and glycerin, helps reduce the appearance of redness while providing calming hydration.


I've been using Avon Beyond Glow Centella Soothing Cream daily for a month, and a small amount is enough to hydrate my entire face. I love applying it at night for a smooth, non-sticky feel before bedtime. Key benefit: This soft, non-sticky cream moisturizes while reducing the look of redness from dryness and is clinically shown to improve the skin barrier.

GO. by Glimmer

 






I'm wearing GO. by Glimmer Lacquered Lip Gel in shade Currant Crush on my lips and a touch of GO. by Glimmer Whipped Lip & Cheek Tint in shade Flora on my cheeks. Let's talk details! 💋
The Lip Gel delivers a stunning watercolor effect with a sheer, buildable tint. Even after blotting or hours of wear, it leaves behind a beautiful stain without feeling sticky or drying out your lips.
As for the Cheek Tint, I was hesitant at first because of my mild apple allergy (it contains apple extract) and the bold color in the pot. But I decided to give it a try, applying it over my primer and foundation. The result? Amazing! The color payoff is vibrant yet blendable, and it worked seamlessly using just my fingertips. While I’ll avoid applying it directly to bare skin, I’m happy to report it was a success!


Pink + Pearls! 🩷 Today, I'm rocking the new GO. by Glimmer Whipped Lip & Cheek Tint in Frozen Pink, fmg Glimmer Lipliner in Pink Bouquet, and Beyond Glow Lipcerin Hydrating Tinted Lip Care in Twinkle. The perfect flirty and fun combo for a Galentine’s Day outing with your besties! 💕✨


Peachy keen, jelly bean! 🍑✨ Today’s look is all about soft, dreamy hues with Avon GO. by Glimmer Lacquered Lip Gel in Waffle Cone and GO. by Glimmer Whipped Lip & Cheek Tint in Peony. 💕 This multitasking tint adds the perfect flush to lips and cheeks—just a dab and blend with your fingertips! (I used a light touch since it contains apple fruit extract and I have a slight allergy.) And can we talk about this lip gloss?! It’s glossy but not sticky and gives that pretty, watercolor effect. Obsessed! 😍

Merry Pinkmas! 🩷

 

Merry Pinkmas! 🩷 Glitter nail polish that's easy to remove? What?! No way! Naturally, I had to try it to believe it. 💅 And guess what? It totally worked! ✨



I started by applying two coats of Avon fmg Glimmer Nail Lacquer - Glitz A-Peel in the shade Leading Lady. The polish held up beautifully throughout the day. Then in the evening, I decided to test its peel-off feature. Using a wooden orange stick, I gently worked around the edges of my nails to get the peel started. Once I did, the polish came off in small chunks with minimal effort—so easy and surprisingly quick!


A few tips:
⚠️ Not ideal for those who tend to pick or bite their nails (you know who you are 😉).
⚠️ Skip it if you're planning to cook or bake—no one wants glitter in their treats!

But for a fun holiday party or festive event, it's absolutely perfect! ✨


Three shades available - Leading Lady (pink), Newlywed (clear), and Best in Class (red).

For more pink for your Pinkmas nails, check out Avon fmg Glimmer Nail Lacquer- Raise a Glass in shade Flushed; fmg Glimmer Matte-llic Crystals Nail Lacquer in Rose Citrine; or 

fmg Glimmer Nail Lacquer in Full Moon Flush.
