20 Years, Two Names, and One Big Pivot: Meet "Mary K with Avon"

Avon Fiji Fresh stain removers

They say life is a journey of “pivots,” and as I hit my 20th year in my Avon business, I’m taking my biggest turn yet.

The Story Behind the Name

When I started this Avon journey in 2006, I was Mary Halsey. In 2013, I became Mary Kominska after finally saying “yes” to my husband, Scott. (Fun fact: He actually proposed in 1987, and I said no! Proof that some of the best things in life—and business—take time and the right timing.)

The Rebrand: Mary K with Avon

I am celebrating two decades of beauty, I’m leaning into the name I was born to have. I’m officially rebranding as Mary K with Avon.

I’m the “Mary” you’ve trusted for 20 years, simply with a fresh vision and that signature Avon glow. This “pivot” is about honoring my history while stepping boldly into the future.

Why Pivot Now?

After 20 years, I’ve learned that if you aren’t growing, you’re standing still. 

My 2026 Pivot means:

More Energy: A refreshed commitment to my customers.

More Expertise: Two decades of beauty knowledge at your service.

The Same Heart: I’m still the same Mary, simply more “me” than ever.

I am excited to show you what’s next!

Last week I told you about how well Fiji Fresh laundry sheets clean clothes. Yet we know there are stains that are too difficult to remove, even for the best laundry detergent. It’s why you should know about Fiji Fresh stain removers. They come in a gel or a spray. Both work the same way…but there’s one big difference that I’ll cover in a minute.

But first, let’s talk about those tough, set-in stains. It’s important to get them out if you want to prolong the life of your clothes (especially the items that you love most). Here’s what both the gel and the spray have in common.

They contain powerful enzyme formulas that remove stains better than laundry detergent alone. Therefore, if you have sensitive skin, please wear gloves or wash your hands right after you use them. Next, depending on the severity of the stain, you should let the fabric stand for about five minutes, just don’t let it dry. Then wash it with detergent in the warmest water the garment will accept.

Now with any stain remover product, it’s always best to treat stains while they are fresh or as soon as possible. The same applies here. The reason for having both a gel and a spray has to do with the fabric itself. The gel has a brush which is placed directly onto the stain. You may have to press down to dispense it and gently rub into the fabric. But what if the fabric is too delicate? That’s where the spray comes in. All you have to do is spray it on, just don’t over saturate the material.

Both products are great for treating sleeves, socks, collars , and more – so you can keep your clothes looking as good as new. Again, here are the links for easy access: Fresh Fiji Laundry Stain Remover Gel and Fresh Fiji Laundry Stain Remover Spray
