In The Pink

New York designer, Cynthia Rowley, famed for dressing celebrities such as Scarlett Johnasson, can turn her hand to anything, it seems. One of her recent ‘designs’ was to wave a wash of bright pink over a garden hose and sell it at USA supermarket giant, Target, for $10. Odd. Would have loved to be a fly on the wall at that marketing meeting…’ok, so it’s a hose…and your design touch is to make it pink….yay, we LOVE that…high five…we think….’ However, She’s been much more inventive and forward with her collaboration with Avon. The gorgeous All-Over Face Colour, 8 pounds, is a make up addict’s must have, embossed with tiny flowers, and pretty in pink hues. Americans are mad for Avon, while we Brits tend to treat it as a beauty poor relation, but if it keeps on with these wonderful collaborations, it deserves more respect. Worldwide, Avon coins in over $10 billion in annual revenues. However, its worth noting that Avon UK has raised 14 million pounds for breast cancer charities since 1992. That truly is amazing. NB: Lisa Snowden has just signed to be the face of Avon lingerie.
