A weathered face can help one project wisdom or blend in at Mount Rushmore but is otherwise considered undesirable. Stand out from monumental mugs with today’s Groupon to The Avon Store. Choose from the following options:
- For $35, you get a 30-minute facial (a $40 value) and a microdermabrasion treatment (a $60 value, a $100 total value)
- For $25, you get $50 worth of facial services, fragrances, and cosmetic items
The skin visionaries at The Avon Store soothe sensitive and stressed skin with Avon facials and proffer cosmetics that can be taken home for anytime self-pampering. The 30-minute facial gives clients a quick face refreshing and a choice between an exfoliation process or an impurity-siphoning mask more relaxing than a bubble bath that hums Enya tunes. A microdermabrasion treatment is then applied for speedy exfoliation and further eviction of dead skin cells.
Guests can also browse The Avon Store's buffet of other facial services, including a 60-minute Anew anti-aging facial ($45) that exfoliates and regenerates dermises with a tincture of real alligator tears, or a 55-minute Clearskin facial that tackles acne with an individualized battle plan ($40). Cosmetics such as the all-occasion-worthy 12-in-1 Shimmering eye palette ($20) and fragrances such as Hervé Léger Femme ($34) come in variations for many tastes and are known to make puppy eyes at customers until scooped up into waiting arms.

The Groupon Guide to: the Differences Between Dogs and Cats
Though dogs and cats are often confused, they belong to two quite separate taxonomic families. Here is a guide to telling the difference:
• The most obvious external differences are visible in the head—dogs have wider and shorter heads and a more U-shaped than V-shaped snout. For hard-to-distinguish specimens, the protruding tooth is the most reliable feature to define a species.
• Dogs lack the jagged fringe which appears on the hind legs and feet of the cat, and the toes of the hind feet are webbed not more than halfway to the tips. Dogs strongly prefer freshwater, and cats can better tolerate seawater because of specialized glands for filtering out salt.
• Dogs also tend to be darker in color than cats—often nearly black—but color is very dependent on water quality. Algae-laden waters produce greener skin, and tannic acid from overhanging trees can often produce darker skin.
• When cleaning dog pools, some zookeepers can tread on dogs without eliciting a response, though cats almost invariably react aggressively and are for the most part more aggressive in their natural habitat.
