Mary Kay History

Mary Kay was founded in 1963 by legendary and extraordinary entrepreneur, Mary Kay Ash. She was considered one of the pioneers of the beauty industry at that time. She only had 5 products in a 500-square foot store in Dallas, Texas. Mary Kay Ash had a dream to inspire women all over the world to take control their lives and change their finances. She wanted to teach other women how to also teach other women how to transform their lives. 

Mary Kay Ash is no longer with us, but has been going strong for almost 55 years. The company is still being run by her family, one of her nephews runs the company now. There are over 3.5 million beauty consultants that includes over 35 countries. With more than 200 products available, the company ranks high in the cosmetic industry.

Mary Kay’s achievements, does not include just sales. The Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation, which is now called the Mary Kay Foundation, was founded to fund and research cancers that affect women and to help fight violence against women. The company has a gone green, and has a corporate recycling program. Consultants can return product packaging to be recycled.

I can think of a lot of great beauty companies out there, but the one that is at the top of my list is Mary Kay. Yes, the company has great products, but so do other companies. It is the love and caring for women and the business opportunity that would allow women to experience financial freedom.

LUSH LASHES!!!

Not everyone is gifted with those beautiful and lavish lashes. That is why Mary Kay Lash and Brow Building Serum, should be your product of choice for lash and brow growth. Besides the natural aging process, there are still a lot of reasons that could lead to shortening of lash life, such as the habit of frequent eye rubbing which causes irritation. Not to mention, harsh makeup and makeup removers. Also, excessive tweezing and waxing are also other ways you can lose lashes. This is where the Mary Kay Lash & Brow Building Serum comes in, this product is the perfect solution to restore the beauty and health of your lashes and brows. 

I'm so EXCITED about our new Lash & Brow Serum! This is going to be a HOT HOT HOT item!

Love My Lips!

I have never been a liner girl, but I have found my new found love. Clear Lip Liner, who would've thought. This age-fighting liner helps keep lips looking young and voluminous. The fabulous formula is also long-wearing and waterproof for a velvety, moisturizing feel. There are nine incredible shades to choose from so you find the perfect match to your natural skin tone. This lip liner is mechanical, retractable and comes with a built-in sharpener in the cap.

Check it out here

  How It Works

• The delicate lip area is prone to excessive moisture loss and as lips age, they become thinner and fine lines and wrinkles become more obvious on and around the lips. This formula is a creamy formula that doesn’t sacrifice wear time and is chock full of age-fighting ingredients that help lips appear smooth and help protect lips while preventing feathering and bleeding for a perfectly, polished look.
• The neutral, lip-tone based shade palette can help streamline a woman’s makeup routine because one liner will accommodate all lip color shades and will provide a subtle way to prevent feathering and bleeding. No more guessing which liner shade matches your lipstick shade.
• With a sharpener built into the cap, you have a choice on how thick or how thin you draw your line.

It’s a foundation. It’s a powder. That’s the beauty of mineral powder foundation. This Mineral Powder blends effortlessly for a flawless look. It makes lines, wrinkles and other imperfections seem to disappear. It provides a buildable coverage that I love. 

How does Mary Kay Mineral Powder Foundation specifically differ from MK Signature Loose Powder?
In addition to the general differences mentioned above, Mary Kay Mineral Powder Foundation contains a higher percentage of minerals than the loose powder. Also, the key function of the loose powder is to help control excess oil while setting makeup for a flawless look.

Beyond your face!

The appearance of your hands and décolleté can give away a women's age. The early signs of aging are not only found on the face but on these areas as well. These areas are usually the last on our mind when we think of skin care until it is too late. TimeWise Body Hand and Décolleté Cream Sunscreen SPF 15 it the one product that gives both the hands and décolleté some much needed attention. 


The skin on the back of your hands is relatively thin and fragile just the like skin around your eyes. As we age the skin on the hands produces less lubricating oils, which can make dryness a bigger problem. Then there is the décolleté that gets a lot of unwanted exposure to the sun. The skin in this area is prone to crepiness and excessive freckling or age spots.

Here’s what women said after using TimeWise Body™ Hand and Décolleté Cream Sunscreen SPF 15.

• After 2 weeks:
  • 80% said it softens the appearance of crepiness
• After 4 weeks:
  • 80% said skin appears firmer
  • 78% said it helped reduce the appearance of fine lines
• After 8 weeks:
  • 85% said skin felt tighter
  • 80% said it visibly reduced the appearance of wrinkles
  • 60% said it helped reduce the appearance of dark spots  
     

How It Works 
 
TimeWise Body Hand and Décolleté Cream Sunscreen SPF 15 combines several effective ingredients – including the superfruits acai berry and pomegranates:

• Minimizes the appearance of crepiness and helps skin look firmer. The formula includes ChroNOline™ caprooyl tetrapeptide-3 that has been shown** to provide optimal skin support by boosting collagen and elastin.
• Hydrates and supports the skin barrier, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Acai berry extract plus vitamin E helps protect skin by neutralizing harmful free radicals. Pomegranate sterol helps fortify the skin barrier and acts as a humectant to pull moisture into the skin. Shea butter and glycerin provide skin conditioning benefits.
• Helps reduce the appearance of dark spots. The formula contains Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) and ChroNOline caprooyl tetrapeptide-3 which have been shown to have an impact on the process that causes pigmentation to occur.
• Protects against UV damage. Sunscreen ingredients provide UVA/UVB broad spectrum defense.

Acne Be Gone

Mary Kay® Acne Treatment Gel is the best over the counter treatment that I have found. If I notice a pimple starting to appear on my face I will apply a small amount of the acne gel 2 to 3 times a day. Within a few days the pimple is gone. 

 

• Water-based gel clinically proven to dry and clear acne blemishes and allow the skin to heal.
• Penetrates pores to eliminate most blackheads and pimples, and helps prevent new blackheads and pimples from forming.

 

 

 

 Active ingredient: Benzoyl Peroxide 5%

Benzoyl Peroxide kills acne bacteria within the pores and on the surface of the skin.

 

Earn extra income

I want to take a few minutes to explain why I made the decision to sell Mary Kay products. As a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant I have my own business. I have the flexibility to work as much as I want too. It is so important to me to love the work that I do and with Mary Kay I love the products and I love the people that I get to meet. Being a mother of 3 and a wife is how I have spent most of my life, so when my children got older I decided that I needed something for myself. Mary Kay has given me the chance to get out and meet new people that have the same goals as I have.

I feel that to be successful in the Mary Kay business you need the support of other consultants and a goal oriented director. So if you decide to sign up as a consultant find a unit in your area that have weekly meetings and training. The training and meetings are free and will be very useful as you start your business. My director is always giving me great advice on how to expand my business.

These are just some of the reason to sell Mary Kay. To find out more and to hear other stories click here.

Eyes Alive

Imagine a luxuriously rich eye cream that is so advanced it firms, brightens, provides intense moisturization, plus minimizes fine lines and wrinkles. You can have all this with the new TimeWise® Firming Eye Cream. Experience the younger looking eyes you have wanted to see. This I use in the morning and at night along with my TimeWise 3 in 1 cleanser and moisturizer.


Fact: The skin around the eyes is the thinnest, most delicate on the face. 

• 96% saw an improvement in the overall appearance of the skin around the eyes
• 100% saw a visible reduction in roughness/dryness around the eyes
• up to 25% firmer skin around the eyes
• up to 40% reduction of dark circles under the eyes
• up to 75% improved silkiness of skin around the eyes

Lips Don't Lie

If you need to bluff away dry lips, then the Satin Lips Set is what you need. Your lips have an extremely thin outer protective layer. As our bodies age the already thin layer of our lips become thinner. Which can then cause our lips to dry out faster and become chapped easier.


First you use the lip mask to exfoliate the dead surface skin cells that cause lips to appear dull and lifeless. Then apply the lip balm to moisturize.

• Lip Mask provides gentle and effective exfoliation
• Lip Balm moisturizes the lips for at least six hours

Happy Hands

See how three easy steps make hands happy with the Satin Hands® Pampering Set.  This set will make your hands feel heavenly imediately after using. I just love to use the Satin Hands because it makes my hands feel wonderful and soft to touch. I use the peach flavor because it smells good but it comes in fragrance-free also.

• The Satin Hands® Pampering Set is an easy, three-step system that helps keep hands feeling renewed, soothed and pampered.
• The Extra Emollient Night Cream helps maintain the natural moisture of the skin and replenishes hydration in dry areas.
• The Satin Hands® Satin Smoothie™ cleanses and exfoliates in one step  It instantly leaves hands feeling smooth and soft.
• The Satin Hands® Hand Cream provides instant hydration to condition and moisturize hands for hours.

Spa at home

I love this Set here. It makes your face feel sensational. You only use it twice a week but the affects could last as long as 6 months.  
 
See why women everywhere have turned bathrooms into at-home spas with the TimeWise® Microdermabrasion Set, which features aluminum oxide crystals as used by dermatologists. Immediately fight fine lines, refine pores and achieve smooth skin. Women love the immediate skin-smoothing results from the this product.


After using the TimeWise^® Microdermabrasion Set for just one week:

• 85% Saw an improvement in skin texture
• 73% Saw a reduction in fine lines
• 71% Saw pores that looked smaller

Miracles do happen

Looking your age is so overrated. Who has to when you have the TimeWise Miracle Set.

First you have the The TimeWise Cleanser. It combines anti-aging benefits, with three essential skin care benefits in one product to cleanse, exfoliate, and refresh revealing younger looking skin.
Second you have The TimeWise Moisturizer. It is formulated with an exclusive dream humectant blend, plus powerful antioxidants that guard against free radicals to help skin look and feel smooth. It hydrates for up to 10 hours while helping control excess oil.
You then have TimeWise Day Solution with Sunscreen SPF 25 and TimeWise Night Solution. Together they work around the clock for protection during the day and renewal at night.
All these combined make the Miracle Set.


As seen by a dermatologist on panelists in a 12-week clinical study:

• 83% had a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles
• Up to 25% improvement in skin elasticity
• 100% had softer, more supple skin
• 46% improvement in more even skin tone
