I know --

I know that a lot of women like to leave their makeup on overnight so that when they wake up in the morning they don't scare themselves when they look in the mirror. Well, that's what they say anyway. I think they really don't want to scare their significant others, their spouses or their children. Babies cry enough without being scared when they first wake up.

So what does that do to your confidence when you look in that mirror every morning and see the mascara under your eyes instead of on the lashes? Or half the foundation is on your face and the other half is on the pillow case.

What do you FEEL like when you see the ravages of left over makeup on your face?

Well, it sure isn't confident!!!

If you have the correct cleansing system, you can clean your face AND moisturize in less than 10 minutes.

Your children would rather see a clean face than one that is leftover from last night.

Nothing is good the next morning cold---except pizza!!!

And you GIRLFRIEND are not pizza.

YOU are a beautiful, vibrant woman with lots to give to all those who live with you.

Make the best of it-----

WASH your face and be PROUD!!!

Be Honest with yourself!!

Honestly--how many of us have gone to bed with our makeup on?

Every night for a week? 

Raise your hand!

ME!!! and I know better.

Your skin will not age 10 years for every night you don't cleanse your skin.  It will just be very dry or oily depending on your skin type.

I know women who NEVER cleanse their face because of Roseacea or because they just don't know what to use.

One tip is this -- if you get bumps around the jaw line after using a cleanser then you are using the wrong product NOT because you are allergic to it.

Allergic reaction of face cleansers, foundations or creams will make your skin burn and become very red and tender.

If a product breaks your skin out into lots of bumps it could be a combination of lots of things.

And that's why Mary Kay has consultants -- so we can work with you to find the BEST product for YOUR skin.

The BEGINNING!!!

Like Alice in Wonderland I am going to begin at the beginning and go on to the end and stop.

The beginning to feeling SASSY is good skin.

Not JUST your face---but your whole ENTIRE body.

This takes a little dong but is well worth it.

Skin flakes off -- or if it doesn't it settles in certain places and just holds on tight-- until someone loosens it.

That's what is called EXFOLIATION. And to exfoliate you either use a dremel tool to get that extra skin off -- or you use an exfoliater. A non harsh way to get to the problem.

And it leaves your skin feeling SOOOOO good!!

As I am a Mary Kay consultant I recommend our Microdermabrasion set for your face. For the arms, legs, feet, torso -- and other parts that I will not name, I recommend the scented sugar scrub.

When I take the time to get rid of all that dry skin, I feel like I could take a jet ski to the moon.

Have you ever??

Have you ever gone to your makeup drawer and couldn't open it because there was too much STUFF in there??

Well, sister of mine, let me tell you about Mary Kay Cosmetics.

As a consultant with Mary Kay I know a lot of things about the BEST for your skin.

As an artist I know even more about what colors YOU need.

That all adds up to a drawer that has what you need---and no more.

Doesn't that sound good to you??

The only way I will know if this blog is gonna work is if you will click on and tell everyone you know about it.

Thanks!!
