Since the holidays are literally just around the corner it is time to think about holiday selling and still working through the hussle and bustle of the holiday season. I’ll admit, in the past I have always been intimidated by November and December. The first year I was working my business I did a craft bazaar at a church and when I called the leads many were too busy due to holiday plans. This year (5 years later) is different! For the first time I am READY for the season and will take control of the situation. (more…)
This week for Fight the Frump with Fussypants I’m talking about the dreaded eye shadow crease! You all know what I’m talking about. You apply your eye makeup pristinely in the morning and by noon there is a thin line of color amid a bare patch in your eyelid crease. It’s unsightly, isn’t it? I have some suggestions that will make that problem history. (more…)
Since it is mid-July and the heat is steamy and humid, I think it’s a good time to talk about acne prevention and treatment! In this humidity anyone can have oily overload. Last week I did and I used my typical acne routine. I cleansed, used Blemish Control Toner Formula 3, Night Solution, and moisturizer. So, the focus is acne treatment and oil control products.

This evening my order arrived! I’ve been waiting! I am always impressed with how quickly my products arrive after I order them. I think I placed my order last Wednesday. Tonight I got my new colors arranged nicely into the display trays. I don’t have every single color in there, but I have most of the eye colors and the blushes I find most appealing.
I have all of the new eye colors in the bottom tray except for Coal. I have Cinnamon Stick cheek color in the top right corner set. In the top center square you will see Sunny Spice (left) and Sparkling Cider (right) cheek colors. The bottom center square contains Berry Brown (left) and Pink Petals (right) cheek colors. Most likely, I will order one or two more display trays to showcase everything in an appealing manner. If you choose to do this yourself, be sure to arrange the colors to compliment each other. Avoid having colors that clash too close to each other in the tray. (more…)

Last night at my meeting I got some great training and tips on this fabulous product! The Targeted Action Line Reducer is designed to offer both instant and long-term effects. It plumps the skin in the face where lines occur within 10 minutes and also aids in the disappearance of those lines over time! Amazing! But there are some things you should know: (more…)
My purpose for posting this is to demonstrate the proper verbiage expected of us to use when addressing this issue with our customers. Note, the specifics that surround the arrival of this title. (more…)
OK, this news isn’t as bad as I feared when I first started to read it, but it’s excellent information nonetheless and is understandable. I’m relieved that the PCP version features the product! Anywho, this was in my email tonight:
As you may know, the TimeWise® Targeted-Action Eye Revitalizer is now available for ordering. And while this fabulous new product is featured in the Fall/Holiday Preferred Customer Program version of The Look, you may wonder why it is not included in the Fall/Holiday issue of The Look that you can order on the Sept. 16 Consultant order form (open stock version.)
At the time we went to press for the open stock version of this brochure, we still were not sure when this product would be available. We did not want to put you in the position that a product was again featured in The Look that you were not able to offer your customers. The Preferred Customer Program version of The Look went to press at a later date so we were able to include the TimeWise® Targeted Action Eye Revitalizer.
The good news is that the TimeWise® Targeted-Action Eye Revitalizer ad, as seen in the Summer issue of The Look, will be posted on the Mary Kay® InTouch Web site Sept. 16 so you can print the ad and insert into The Look you share with your customers.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
