The world's biggest direct seller of cosmetics can't escape to the islands to avoid its financial woes. Avon Products Inc. says it is ceasing operations in 16 Caribbean nations.

A spokeswoman for the world's biggest direct seller of cosmetics told The Associated Press that the company will no longer accept orders from places including Jamaica, Haiti and the Bahamas. Spokeswoman Lindsay Fox said that the company will still serve eight islands including Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.

She declined to say how many sales representatives would be affected.
