Avon's 140th Anniversary - About Us

A legendary beauty brand
was born!

In 1886–the same year the Statue of Liberty was dedicated as a symbol of independence–David H. McConnell, a traveling book salesman, sparked a beauty revolution. What began with simple perfume samples soon grew into the California Perfume Company, which later became Avon. Today we celebrate 140 years of innovation, opportunity, and beauty for all.

The Beauty of Sharing

Sharing the things we love is the glue that holds our community together. It sparks conversations and builds positive relationships. Avon was the first to pioneer social selling, turning millions of beauty lovers into Avon Ambassadors, giving them the opportunity to share what they love.

“I have truly met some of my best friends through Avon. I have learned a lot about myself. It is rewarding as I see other women grow and come into their own.”

Emily, Avon Ambassador since 2005
