I haven’t seen an AVON lady here but I’ve seen an Oriflame guy. Oriflame is the “Avon” of Saudi Arabia. It is a cosmetics company from Sweden which also uses the direct selling method. There’s a catalog being passed around where you’ll see the products and order what you like from the person in charge of the catalog. In our case, it’s one of our housekeeping guy at the hospital. It’s the “business” of his wife and he’s helping out since he gets to mingle with more ladies at work.

Here’s a few pages from the Oriflame catalog:

A handsome man on its cover! Haha!

Sensual women for perfumes.

Candy-colored nail polish and lippies.

Kissable lips.

I haven’t had the chance to order something from the catalog but my officemate said she’s satisfied with one of their bronzers. Though prices seem a little bit higher on this season’s new catalog, they’re still affordable since Oriflame is an international brand.

I might try their bronzer or nail polish one of these days.
