Make-Up.

My sister is now going to be a Mary Kay consultant!

{My mom and my sister}

On Thursday night, my sister had a few girls over at her house to do a Mary Kay party so she could learn about it and it was pretty fun. The only make-up I wear is eye liner and mascara if I have time to put it on, and occasionally eye shadow. I don't mess around with foundation or bronzer or anything like that because it always looks so strange on me. And I just don't like it. Too much time and effort!

{Don't I look so strange?! Me and my mom have make-up on, but I don't think my sister does, she got distracted somewhere along the way...} 
{Also, I am not shorter than my family, I was crouching WAY down to fit in the picture!}

It was fun to try stuff on and find the colors that were right for me. The thing I especially liked was learning about the basic skin care. All the 'older' ladies I know that have great skin ALWAYS say they just took care of it growing up. They didn't use anything fancy, just face wash and sunscreen.

I'm bad at washing my face once a day or remembering to put sun screen on when I go outside so I'm slightly worried about how my skin will look in 20 years. Because of this, I have been thinking about buying a good face wash/moisturizer. I definitely don't want to pay a lot of money, but I also know that I should probably pay more than the $4 face wash I buy now!

{My cheeks, they are so bronzed!}

Once my sister signs up and get her products next week, I am going to buy the face wash and creams. The lady who was doing the party said her bottle lasts about 7 or 8 months, but she washes her face twice a day. I would aim to wash my face at least once a day, but twice a day is pushing it at the moment! But that's good because it means it will last me longer, right? And it's only $40 for the two, so it's not that expensive.

I also know I am going to buy some mascara. I loved it and it made my eyelashes look pretty sweet for $10! I feel weird saying that, considering I don't think about my eyelashes AT ALL throughout the day except when I put mascara on...

So if you buy Mary Kay or want to have a Mary Kay party with me, let me know! I'll pass you on to my sister. 

Also, if I had a Mary Kay party at my house so my sister could get practice, would any of you ladies come? It would be fun to get together, especially people I haven't seen in years!

  6. Good luck to her! I tried selling Arbonne for a few months but it wasn't for me. If she's good with people though, I bet she'll go far. =]\

  10. Ya, I don't think I would enjoy selling stuff either, but I think my sis will love it. She's so good at that kind of stuff!

  12. Aw I wish I could have a Mary Kay party with you! I'm pretty sure we don't live close enough for that though lol.

  13. Good for her! Well since we're trying to downsize I have tons of old "supplies" I need to get rid of and they'll just go to Goodwill... so I'll dig around and find all the stuff that doesn't say Arbonne on it and she can take what she wants and give away what she doesn't. Mainly just convenient carriers so you don't have all of it in plastic bags or cardboard boxes or anything. I have one of those scrapbook kits which I used to hold samples and such. Let me know if she's interested at all and we'll figure something out. =]

  14. IF you happen to find stuff while you're cleaning, let me know what you've got! The kit she gets when she signs up comes with a TON of stuff, so she might be covered, but I'll ask her about it. Thanks love!

  15. Hehe, ya, I don't think so! It would be fun though!

  17. Thank you! I'm definitely starting to realize that I DO need to spend a little money on that. =]
