    More big bottle tops? Avon has caught the Vera Wang virus! So tacky! If I wanted big bottle tops, I’d ask a niece or nephew to make a papier- mache..at least then, it would be sentimental;)

    The ‘cap’ looks like one of those mesh loofah thingies. Bizarre.

    Any mention of whether the bottle top can double as a brooch or hairclip? My goodness, it’s large enough to wear to tea with the queen!!

    Seriously, though, has Avon recovered from it’s tangle with foreign corruption? Last I read they were turning down takeover bids (I think from Coty) are they still looking for a new president?
