Pinterest look of the week- June 20th 2013

This is one picture that is just all over Pinterest. So I'm not sure who I to give credit to because it is FABULOUS but whoever you are you did a great job! In this picture the 1st and 3rd are the Pinterest look and 2nd and 4th are my eyes, MK style. This was before I had my amazing Lash Love Lengthening Mascara but not too bad comparing them to false lashes. I also take my look more up than out because of the shape of my eye.

Of course I started this look with Eye Primer because that always helps make the colors brighter. Highlight color is called Crystalline. The silver is called Sterling. Then I used both Black Pearl and Coal of it would fade and still have some great shimmer. For eyeliner I used our previous edition black gel eyeliner but our liquid eyeliner or pencil liner could be used for the same effect. In the picture I used our  Ultimate Mascara but I would highly recommend the Love Lash Lengthening for that false lash effect. Total for this look is only $53 (4 eyeshadows, eyeliner and mascara) Not too bad for fabulous!

My lips are going worldwide!!!

Every year Mary Kay does something called "Beauty that Counts". It's been either a few lipsticks, lip glosses or both. Part of the proceeds made by purchasing them go to our Mary Kay Ash Foundation which will then use that money to fund grants for domestic violence shelters. I love getting behind this every year. So this year I created a cute picture with the information and took pictures of my lips with the colors on. Little did I know that Mary Kay consultant WORLDWIDE were going to use and share this picture to promote it too! WOW! I think it is so great that we can do this. So here is the picture I created and the screen shots showing a few people sharing this picture. I especially love the one that is sharing on another language!

Feeling like a natural beauty

They always say "when you have great skin you don't need a lot of makeup." When I would hear this all I could think to myself was "great, I will be wearing all kinds of makeup my whole life!" I never felt that I had great skin. I had seen dermatologist and they told me the acne that I had was based internally. If I was stressed, you saw it on my skin. If I was hormonal, you saw it on my skin. So really I had just accepted it and tried to find the best way possible to have great makeup to look like I had flawless skin. The picture on the left is my before picture from 2012. I took it to show how great the a timewise foundation coverage was.

But when the new Timewise Repair set came out, I was a bit curious about it. I had been told that retinol started as an acne product when they saw the great anti-aging results they got. So I figured what the heck. Honestly I have nothing to lose and I can share with my customer how it feels and everything. Now I didn't change to the line completely. I love my oily 3-n-1 cleaner! So I just changed to the day and night creams. I started using both creams in December 2012. The picture on the right from March 2013. For the first time in a long time I was going to the gym in the morning without makeup on and it felt amazing! I love not having to worry about getting up and going anywhere and not being able to represent my brand the way I feel it should be! 

Every women, wait, EVERY PERSON deserves to feel great in their own skin! Makeup is just the fun part. When someone else feels good in their skin, I feel great about my job! Do you feel good in your own skin???

Pinterest look of the week- June 5th 2013

I stumbled upon this beautiful look on Pinterest the other day.

http://www.preen.me/look/6485010

This makeup artist is great! Her eyes in the picture are really to die for! And I love that they have a how-to video with it! 

It's a great thing that they show you all the product that they use too. But for everything for the eyes is about $120 for this look.

So I decided to recreate it, Mk style. Cut the price by half too!

As you can see I did not use false eyelashes. Although I love have bold lashes, I like having them be mine. I started my look with my Mk eye primer of course. The MK eyeshadow colors I used were White Lily for the highlight, Amber Blaze for the eyelid and Sienna for the crease. I also used an eyeshadow for the teal colored liner under called Azure. Black eyeliner for the top (liquid can be used but I like pencil or gel better) and I am in love with the new Lash Love Lengthening Mascara. So all of those products I used can be purchased for just about $63 plus tax! Not too bad... But what's best for me is as a consultant I pay 1/2 that! So 1/4 the price of the original look! Love it!
