The Mielke Way 
Hello – I came across your blog and would love to send you some of the Ava Anderson Non Toxic products.
Here’s a little bit about Ava Anderson Non Toxic’s products (no harmful chemicals) and I’d like to share her amazing story.
Founded by Ava in 2009 (at 15) with the help of her parents, to share products that are not harmful for humans and the environment. She now has 1,300 consultants in 48 states and is one of the fastest growing direct sales companies in the country. Recently honored as “Emerging Entrepreneur, 2011” finalist by Entrepreneur Magazine. In addition to us growing a business with an important social message, our consultants are growing strong businesses as well.
Ava’s quick growing success has been monumental and she has been featured in Glamour, Seventeen (“Pretty Amazing Girl” pick by the Editor) People, Aol Stylist, WWD, Italian Vogue, and many more. She has been endorsed (never paid) by Alicia Silverstone and other high profile celebrities interested in anti cancer and environmental issues.
Here is a list of Ava’s current lines:
avaBODY – hand & body lotion – hand sanitizer – lip balm – hand soap – shower gel – body scrub
avaSKIN –cleanser – toner –moisturizer – exfoliator – eye makeup remover pads – eye cream – lip scrub
avaFACE – lip glosses – lipsticks – mascara – foundation – blush – brushes
avaSUN – sunscreen – lip balm with spf – moisturizer with spf
avaHAIR – shampoo – conditioner – style cream – deep conditioning treatment
Will are ecstatic to be adding more categories in the coming months and year!
There is almost nothing that is actually BENEFICIAL to our skin, and our bloodstream, in the cocktail that makes up traditional products in most people’s home. We challenge you to look up just one of the product that you use on a regular basis at http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com – – -as Ava says, “you will be shocked!” Be sure to scroll down and see the disease categories of the ingredient in your products. And to NOTE – if the product has the ingredient “fragrance,” where manufacturers can legally hide hundreds of toxic chemicals and not list them (“trade secret”) – – -all bets are off! Your 5 (on a 0-10 toxicity scale) is much higher – you just won’t know it!
Our goal is to provide the best quality personal care products that contain no harmful chemicals – yes, we’ve done it!
We hope you’re interested in Ava’s lines and we look forward to the opportunity to have you try some of Ava’s AMAZING products.
Please send your address and we’ll send you some goodies soon 🙂
Thanks,
Jean
