My Vintage 1970s Avon Cosmetic collection (Over 100 pieces?!)

1970s Avon Collection
Hello lovelies,
I recently purchased this massive 1970s Avon collection at an estate sale, and I couldn't pass it up. I have become quite the vintage Avon hoarder, but I love all of the unique bottles and packaging it was hard to pass up. Let me know if you remember any of these vintage Avon cosmetics or have a favourite from this collection.

I sold Avon in 1976 and went door to door. I won awards for best sales in my territory. I was very young and competing with ladies who sold it for years. I loved it and made new friends. I remember most of the items you displayed. I fell in love with so many items back then and used to buy lots of neat stuff for me and my family. I wish they would come back with much of these items. I laughed when someone smelled my bottle of Candice. She said she wanted to wear platform's and feather her hair. The scent was considered so modern and young back then. Thank you for the memories. Your videos always bring a smile to my face.

It would be so cool if Avon did the retro packaging again.

I was a kid during the 70's. My mom used to buy Avon and I remember loving the solid perfumes for kids that you could pin to your blouse. I had the bunny with skates and the apple with the worm. I used to love the ice cream cone lip gloss too! Avon definitely used to have very creative packaging. You just don't see soaps, perfume bottles etc. like these anymore.

Almost 60 here. I recognize many of these pieces! What a treasure trove!

Ye Gods! I remember the pale yellow soaps with the florwl/fruit decals! We were NEVER to touch them!

I could swear I had Avon strawberry scented lotion when I was really little. I wish they still made things like this today because I love the pretty, little soaps and packaging.

My mom was a Avon lady in the 70's.
These products are my childhood. 😊

Love this collection! I remember my Mom’s Avon lady. I loved the lipstick samples!

Avon had wonderful holiday catalogues. I was always excited to look through it as a little girl, after my mother was finished with it. I received my very first "lipstick" and hand cream, packaged and made for all little girls, in my Christmas stocking. I remember feeling so grown-up when I put on the lip balm. Later in life, I always bought my daughter cute Avon products for her Christmas stocking. She had soap-on-rope, sachet in cute jars, perfume, lip balm, bubble bath, hand cream, etc. It would be incredibly nostalgic and fun to watch a documentary on people's memories of Avon gifts and purchases over the years. You would be the perfect interviewer, narrator for such a creation! 'Just a thought, but I think it is a fantastic idea!!! All my friends and their mothers loved Avon. (I am 70 y/o.)

Quaker state is a brand of automobile oil. That powder was probably sold for men to wash their hands after working on stuff, they like to use stuff with a bit of grit to exfoliate all the oil and dirt off because it can tend to stain the dead skin on the hands

These objects are three times beautiful: they are pretty per se, they are precious because they belong to a different era and that infuses them with the vintage feel, and finally, they have the power to bring us back to a time past in our lives, childhood or youth, and It was usually a happy time....congratulations for this wonderful walk through memory lane! And yes, I am totally convinced that if Avon released some of this stuff right now, It would be a total hit!

My Mom had the same Avon lady for over 50 years! I used to love when she came... great memories!!!

[GreenGal]

[gracesidorowicz]

I loved the collection bottles. Used to keep on your dresser.. Fond memories

I was an Avon rep for 14 years in Australia until they suddenly folded here in 2018. It was such a shock to all of us. I enjoyed seeing some of the quirky novelty items they sold way back in the 70s. ☺💕⚘💄

[judyhoffler]

I use to sell Avon in the 70's and still have some of the special decanter's. Yes, I rang door bells and loved it. I love your collection.

[vmsantos]

It was an amazing and incredible experience. We had an amazing Avon lady. She had the biggest biggest bouffant beehive hair do, and long nails. She had so many samples and a big bag full of goodies. Her home had this garage attachment that was stocked full of Avon stuff so we could go shopping in there if we didn't want to wait for our order to come in. Oh the memories.

[susanwilliams]

My mom sold Avon in the 70s. I went with her often on her calls. All of these items brings back so many happy memories. Thank you for sharing your collection.

I remember an Avon lady coming to our house. I was always excited. The Avon lady also sold Electrolux vacuum cleaners. Sweet memories!! I love Sweet Honesty perfume. I wear it and it makes me feel happy.
