The Legs Were Made For More Than Walking

There are many prices we pay for staying in style and being successful. Uncomfortable pain in the leg and foot area is experienced by many men and women. A recent study showed that 50% of women and 20% of men suffered from aching, heavy and tense feeling legs and feet.  Most of us tolerate the inconvenience of these feelings and chalk them up to getting older. However, in most cases they can be prevented but, most definitely treated.

We tend to experience these unwanted aches and pains due mainly in part to our general lifestyle and other factors of our everyday life. Tired leg syndrome (TLS) is a common problem that begins due to swelling and weakening of the leg and foot muscles. Women are more prone to be afflicted with this than men due to wearing high heels, staying on the feet caring for the home and their families and simply by being on the go. However, men and women both are affected when they have a job that requires them to be on their feet a lot and even on the go a large portion of the day.

Vericose Veins

Freedom From Aches
& Pains Can Be Yours

Ultimately, TLS can occur as a result of venous insufficiency. This will in turn cause heavy, tired and aching feet and legs. Venous insufficiency is a condition in which improper blood flow causes swelling, varicose veins and/or edema. This condition can also be caused by neuropathy which is nerve damage. You can give your legs and feet the attention they need and deserve. 



Massage Away the Pain



There are things we can to do treat and prevent this condition. For more severe cases, you will need to seek the direction of a physician. But, for minor cases, that are nagging you can try various exercises, changing your footwear, soaking your legs and feet in warm water and massaging the area throughout the week. If you experience tired leg and feet and want a quick remedy you should definitely try the new Mary Kay Mint Bliss Energizing Lotion for Feet & Legs ($10). This is a light weight, cool mint formula that gives relief to tired and aching legs and feet. This item has become a customer favorite.  By having this item at your fingertips you will experience relief without spending a fortune.

ERASE YOUR BAGGAGE



Erase Your Baggage

Thank God it’s Friday!!! The phrase so commonly stated by many often precedes a fun filled, action packed weekend. With those good times there are often repercussions that we are not so thankful for; hangovers, lost sleep, and puffy eyes just to name a few. We all know where hangovers come from and what causes them and lost sleep is an explanation in itself. But, exactly what causes those dreadful puffy eyes that we are many times afflicted with?



Guys Are Affected Too

Puffy eyes are a condition of swollen, inflamed eyes. They affect both men and women. Studies have shown that after the age of 30 people become more plagued by this inflammation. The area surrounding the eyes is very then and full of blood vessels making it ultra sensitive. Puffy eyes can be caused by many factors. As many of us know they also do not limit their appearance on us to just the weekends. Some of the causes of puffy eyes include stress, allergies, hormone changes, fluid retention and other factors. We are fully aware that when someone cries often times it leaves us accompanied with swollen/puffy eyes. This is due to the fact our bodies react to emotions and causes blood to flow through the eyes which ultimately leads to swelling. The production of too many emotional tears will also strain the eye. “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” if it were only as easy as the song claims. 

Sleep or lack of I should say, affects our lives in countless ways.  In regards to puffy eyes, too much sleep and not enough sleep can be a trigger. This can be caused due to varying factors such as too much sodium in your diet causing inflammation due to water retention, tossing and turning and not getting enough “good sleep”.

For many of us, the weekend brings with it a time to gather with our friends and family, the celebration of different events or simple weekend getaways. All of these can include the enjoyment of an alcoholic beverage. Studies have shown that alcohol also has an impact on the swelling of your eyes. However, it is a more prominent symptom for those excessive drinkers.

You can take a deep breath because there are several things you can do to treat and prevent the appearance of puffy eyes.  If you suffer from normal puffy eyes that are not caused by other eye conditions you can try several things to get them back to normal. First, always limit your sodium intake for several health reasons in addition to preventing swollen eyes.  Be sure to drink lots of water throughout your day. This is another healthy practice to hydrate your body and to make sure you are flushing your system regularly. I have a few friends who swear that washing your face with ICE cold water offers immediate relief if you can tolerate the chill. I cannot say if this does indeed offer an immediate relief but, I am sure it will wake you up very quickly LOL!!!

Tea Bag Therapy?

Cucumber Spa?

There are of course a few home remedies that most of us have heard of and possibly have even tried. The famous cucumber slices on the eye is one of those. The legend says that you should place two well chilled cucumbers on your eyes for no longer than 10 minutes. Now, I have tried this one. For me it seems to make me relax more but, does not diminish puffy eyes.  Another common home remedy is to take two very well moistened tea bags and place them in the refrigerator. Once they have reached a nice chilled temperature place them on your eyes and leave them on for a period of 10 minutes. This is not a practice I have tried.  But, I am curious….

I would rather have a product that I know works so I can rest assured that I will be able to rectify my swollen eyes when they decide to grace me with their presence LOL!! The three products that I use and highly recommend are:

 Mary Kay Firming Eye Cream ($30): Firms, brightens and provides intense moisturization for the eye area. It also minimizes fine lines and wrinkles.

Mary Kay Indulge Eye Gel ($15): its botanical extracts are proven to help reduce the appearance of puffiness. It is also accompanied by a nice cooling effect.

Mary Kay Targeted-Action Eye Revitalizer ($35): its roller ball applicator makes it possible for you to apply the product exactly where it is needed all while giving your eyes a “massage”

Please be aware that their cases where puffy eyes are persistent and severe. They can be a symptom of an underlying eye condition such as allergies of the eye. When in this form the puffy eyes are commonly accompanied by pain, discomfort, blurry vision, irritation and/or other conditions. If you are experiencing puffy eyes to this degree it is imperative that you seek medical assistance from an optometrist.

 Enjoy your weekends or any celebration by knowing that you can treat the “physical evidence” of your fun filled life!! Start erasing your baggage now. Order your Mary Kay eye care today.

THE SCENT OF A MAN DRIVES WOMEN CRAZY

There is no denying it….women notice men who smell good. Whether it is a guy we pass in a store or the love of our life, our heads will turn to the scent of a sexy smelling man. As much as women appreciate the scent of a man we want to make sure that the men we have in our lives smell as attractive as they are to us. Unfortunately, guys do not seem to grasp the importance of using cologne to keeping their ladies enticed. Since men are visual creatures perhaps explaining the benefits of this little aphrodisiac will open their eyes to the importance of its use.

Smelling Good Means Taking Care of Yourself
& Shows You Can Take Care of Others

Speaking for myself I can say that a “good smelling man” signifies a gentleman who cares enough about his hygiene to make the extra effort to top off his cleanliness with nice cologne. If you are lucky enough to have passed the initial phase of dating and your man still wears cologne it means he still wants to be attractive to you. By wearing cologne it shows he is still making the effort to give you something you like as well as taking care of him.

The Scent of a Man is Undeniable

There have actually been studies conducted on this by professionals and just curious individuals. What I found interesting was that the majority of these studies were conducted by young men who wanted to fully comprehend what it was about a man’s smell that drove women crazy. One that was particularly interesting to me was a college male who noticed a female friend wearing an extremely oversized sweater on a completely sunny day. Her female friends (all dressed in tank tops and short sleeved shirts) were gathered around her at the table next to his. He could over hear the commotion of compliments they were giving her in regards to her sweater. For the life of him he could not understand at all why!?! His thinking was she looked horrible because it did not fit her at all and it was way too hot for her to be wearing a sweater. When he finally could not stand his own curiosity any longer he intruded on their conversation. What he found surprised him. The sweater belonged to the girl’s boyfriend and the other ladies were taken back and intoxicated with the smell of the sweater. He thought to himself, “You have got to be kidding me!!” But, they weren’t and his ignorance to the power of a man’s smell led to his research.

 What he went on to discover in his project was that human pheromones(aka your bodies’ natural chemicals) have been known to sexually attract women. A little interesting side note…these same human pheromones have been known to repel men. Studies have shown that these same chemicals also harbor a spacing pheromone which is used to “mark territory” and signal physical presence in the male species. Just another piece of evidence that “Men are from Mars & women are from Venus” LOL!! This particular experiment went on to show that women responded with friendliness, sensitivity and emotionality when exposed to larger concentrations of the chemical. Also intriguing were the facts that the chemical showed a greater effect in the first period of the woman’s menstrual cycle and when combined with other fragrant ingredients (men’s colognes).  It is proven that women will generally undergo flushing of the nasal area and the cheeks when they are exposed to the chemical/cologne and will indeed tend to flirt more.

Friend or Lover A Man's Smell is Important

So guys… (And for the gals who have to educate their men) here are a few recommendations that will help you in this area. I strongly urge you to have 2-3 colognes at hand so you can “shake it up”.  Women like spontaneity and by changing the way you smell a few times a week gives the insight that you are not predicable and boring. This is important on two levels. If a woman is looking for a mate she wants one that will most definitely bring some spice to her life. By rotating your cologne choice you will show that you are surprising.  For those of you that have your soul mate, by rotating your cologne you are showing that you still want to have fun and spice things up in your relationship. Mainly it shows her that you want her to be attracted to you.

Never apply cologne solely to your clothes. If you do this the smell with eventually vanish within a matter of a few hours. Your clothes do not contain the natural pheromones that your body does therefore you will not obtain the full effect of your cologne if you do not apply it directly on your body. When you spray cologne on the right spots it will mix with these pheromones to create a scent that is distinctive as being YOUR SMELL. Each person’s body creates its own natural smell with these pheromones and mixed with cologne your own individual smell is created. Your smell cannot be duplicated. Now you know why cologne never smells the same on another person as it does you.  You are unique!!!

The best parts to apply cologne to your body are known as the “hot spots”. This is because they are the areas known to produce the most heat. The heat from your body will combine with the chemicals from the cologne to produce a longer, greater satisfying and effective smell. To achieve the maximum results when wearing cologne, it is suggested that you apply it to the following body parts: neck, wrist, arm pits and behind the ears. If you are using a spray cologne do not spray it behind your ears. Spray it on your hands and rub it behind your ears after all, you don’t want to smell like you took a bath it your cologne. Too much is too much. Another benefit to putting cologne on behind your ears is that when you are dancing with your lady we will tend to whisper in your ear or rest our heads directly on your shoulder so we will not be able to escape your spell-binding aroma.

You do not have to break the bank to smell good. There are an unlimited amount of expensive colognes on the market. The most expensive to date was a perfume/cologne made by Calvin Klein.  It sold for a record $2,670 per bottle and contained a chemical called androstenone this according to the Guinness Book of World Records. Luckily for you there are cheaper alternatives. Mary Kay sells men’s cologne that is called “DOMAIN” that is amazing. I have to say that this is one my all time favorites. It reminds me of a combination of Drakkar and Abercrombie & Finch cologne for a fraction of the cost. A 2.5 fl oz bottle of Domain costs $34.00. You can also purchase the body wash and hair shampoo for $18.00. Domain will wrap you (or your man) is a scent of hearth and home mixed with a blend of lavender and oak moss. It is a very masculine scent that will keep the women drooling for hours.

Mary Kay also sells additional men’s cologne. For a complete listing and description of these scents please visit my website at: www.marykay.com/ur4beauty .

Start your path or broaden the one you are already on to creating your scent…one that will leave you unforgettable.

"I WANNA HOLD YOUR HAND"

One of the negative results of nature’s temperature changes that we do not welcome with each new season are chapped hands.  Changes in the climate can take our normal, healthy looking hands and transform them into a tired, aching, sore and completely unattractive extension of ourselves. Lucky for us this is a small side step of Mother Nature & her elements and it is completely treatable.







Embrace the One You Love
Without Fear



Chapped hands are classified as a result of very dry skin. This occurs when there is reduced moisture (or water) content of the skin. Therefore, we related chapped skin to the cold air. As we all know, the surface of our skin holds a certain about of water. When and if there is a decrease in the amount of water content in our skin, we will experience dry, itchy and uncomfortable skin.  This occurrence can display itself in patches or subsequently affect the whole area of the hands. When this happens we tend to become self conscious of our appearance and our contact with others. When you have chapped hands you can fear the smallest things, like touching someone slightly on the shoulder, hugging a friend or shaking hands with a stranger. How in the world can chapped hands affect all of these areas you ask? Well, first you become highly aware and embarrassed by the appearance of your hands. Secondly, the pain that can accompany chapped hands is intensified by the presence of air, and highly sensitive to touch of any kind. Therefore, it doesn’t matter if you are the one being touched or the one doing the touching, if you have dry, chapped hands you will experience some discomfort regardless of the order of which the “touches” are being exchanged.

Most of us would never allow our hands to reach severe degrees because we are so aware and attentive to one of our most used body parts. However, we can unknowingly expose ourselves to the possibilities with very menial and routine tasks. In a society that seems to be plagued with viruses and germs, we are constantly being told to wash our hands and even repeat the lecture with our children. We do so until it becomes a practice that is etched in our brains and an action we do without having to remind ourselves to do so. As a result, our hands suffer and need extra TLC.

For others, the root cause is not as obvious as hand washing. It can be a genetic predisposition to dry skin. Eczema and other skin disorders can show themselves through dry, chapped skin on the hands. An allergic reaction to certain products or elements can also disguise itself as chapped skin.

I am a person who finds favorite form of relaxation/alone time is through enjoying a long, hot bath. But, in doing research on this subject I discovered that my habitual enjoyment is one of the leading causes of chapped skin. I did feel somewhat affirmed in my decision to “continue soaking in the tub” when I realized that taking long hot showers can have the same resultJ. I can also continue to enjoy it because I can control the longevity of it as a precaution. I should have been fully aware of the effects bathing could have on my skin considering the fact that any long term exposure to cold or heat can affect your skin. With this particular cause, come other culprits that can affect the texture of your skin. Sunburn and windburn are two factors we all have more than likely been a victim of at some point in our lives. Winter’s low humidity that brings with it dry air as well as the use of indoor heat will deplete the moisture in our skin. One of the most undeniable factors of this condition is AGE. The dreaded three letter word. Yes, we cannot hide from it! The inescapable truth is that the older we get the more attention and care we must pay to our body…HANDS INCLUDED!!!

In the most severe cases, it can become difficult for you to perform everyday tasks without wearing protective gloves.  There are the reoccurring skin conditions such as skin inflammations or outbreaks  of eczema which can become conditions requiring professional care due to the fact that bacteria has entered through the cracks of the dry, chapped skin.

A Mother's Touch is Cherished

This condition is one that you can prevent from happening to you.  For those of you who are prone to dry skin be sure to soak your skin thoroughly while bathing or showering. But remember to limit the time you spend exposing yourself to the water as well as the amount of soap that you are using. Some may find that the soap you use affects different parts of your body in different ways. Therefore, this may call for a change in the product you use overall or the addition of a new product for the more sensitive target areas such as underarms or genitalia.  Whether you are bathing or simply washing your hands, always, always be sure to pat the hands dry with a towel and apply a moisturizer. It is proven that moisturizers do just that they moisturize the skin by coating it with oil.  They also block the evaporation of the skin’s natural moisture and trap water in its surface (skin). While they cannot cure existing skin conditions such as eczema, moisturizers provide protection and relieve the dry, itchy side effect and help to reduce the tendency of the skin to crack. While most of the water in moisturizers can evaporate, the oil remains acting as a lubricant which allows the skin to retain that moisture.  

There are two types of moisturizers available for over-the-counter purchase. The first ones at our disposal are cosmetic moisturizers. They will provide immediate relief of dry skin but will last only while they are applied to the skin. For some people this will be enough to keep your skin from feeling dry and chapped.

Second in this group are therapeutic moisturizers. It is proven that many of these creams contain mineral oil or petroleum that act as a barrier to keep the water from disappearing from the skin.

The best way to avoid chapped hands is to keep them well dried, protected from the elements of nature (cold and wind); wear cotton-lined gloves for wet work and brain wash yourself to practice frequently applying moisturizers to your skin. If you find yourself still suffering from a severe form of chapped, dry, cracked hands please consult a dermatologist. He will be able to prescribe you a medicated hand cream to help treat your symptoms.

I am proud to say that one of the most renowned and highly regarded products presently on the market is the Mary Kay “Satin Hands” pampering set.  This product has won several awards and has been featured in magazines throughout the world as a recommendation from the professionals as one of the best skin care products available. We offer this as a set of three items for $34. This set consists of a hand softener, hand scrub, and a hand cream with 24 hour moisturization (not offered by many products).  It is recommended that you complete the three step process at least once a day. But, the hand cream is sold separately and you can apply the it as often as you like. What you will find is that you save money that you would normally spend on other moisturizers by using just one application a day of the “Satin Hands” hand cream. This product is also available in “fragrance free” for those who have sensitive skin. This product is dermatologist approved and will give you the change you are looking for. It is the “rock star” of hand creams.

LIVE LIKE THE SUPER STAR THAT YOU ARE

As I have started on this new business endeavor, I present myself to you as an Independent/Professional Beauty Consultant. For some of you, the title “beauty consultant” may be just a polished way of saying “makeup salesperson.” However, I wanted to take some time to explain just what this title means and the responsibilities one must embrace as they make the decision to proudly adopt the label of “beauty consultant.”  Contrary to popular belief, as a Mary Kay Independent/Professional Beauty Consultant, is not simply an annoying lady in pink trying to shove her products down your throat.  I am so much more.

A beauty consultant is someone who provides advice about personal appearance, with a focus on enhancing a person’s beauty, helping those less confident individuals find and embrace their beauty and for the career driven we help them to look professionally polished. Beauty consultants are not only found working directly for cosmetic companies such as Mary Kay but, they are also employed by department stores. They sell their products by showing individuals how they work and they can best be used to improve personal appearance. Often times they can also run private consulting agencies used by people who want to make radical changes to the way they look. You may not be aware that beauty consultants also staff makeover television shows and other services which are designed to provide image makeovers. In fact, beauty consultants are also referred to as image consultants, style consultants and stylists. We can and do fall under these labels when we are approached to help a person with their overall look including their fashion choices. After all, when you have the desire to look a certain way your attire is naturally affected by the transformation.

In today’s world with the belief that “image is everything” dominating so many job market arenas, there has been a great demand for beauty consultants.  But, the desire to look your best doesn’t just stop with the professional world. Whether we like it or not, EVERYONE is in the public eye. Whether it is through job interviews, traditional media, social networking or the all pervasive video recorders and cell phone cameras, we can be caught in the moment sometimes without our knowledge.  You are not alone if you want to improve how you come across to others.

Your Time Is Valuable

It is a great misconception that you can only have a personal beauty consultant if you were rich, famous or powerful. All it requires is your desire to display your personal beauty to its best form. The convenience of being able to pick up the phone, or send an e-mail and tell your consultant “I need this” is simply priceless. You no longer have to find the time to go to the store and hope and pray that they have your product in stock. Your time is precious regardless of who you are. Why waste your lunch hour rushing to pick up your makeup when you could actually enjoy that time for yourself. You no longer have to deal with the headache of traffic to get fulfill your beauty needs. Moms, how many times have you been in the midst of your daily rush when you realize you are completely out of your cosmectic products and found yourself wondering how you were going to find the time to get what you need in the midst of all of your other duties?  With having your own personal beauty consultant, the product and the service come to you. Ho

w great is that!?!

As my customer you will find that the benefits of my services surpass any that you will acquire over the counter. Where else can you give yourself a virtual makeover while sitting in your pajamas and watching television? Having a beauty consultant opens your world up to endless possibilities with fashion, glamour, self confidence, health and friendships.  

Gift Giving Can Be Easy

And guys, do not feel like you would not benefit from a personal beauty consultant. Perhaps you don’t find yourself in need of the cosmetics women use but, you may have your own image/personal needs that you need assistance with. Also, how many times have you found yourself at your whit’s end trying to figure out a gift for special lady or ladies in your life? By having your own personal beauty consultant this task never has to be an emotional and physical burden on you again.

As stated on my website, as my customer you can create your ideal beauty experience. I offer personalized service that is designed to fit you! Just tell me if you would like one-on-one consultation, a party hosted by you with your friends, a virtual party, makeup tips, skincare advice, or free samples. Remember that you can always “try before you buy”.  I also offer services for weddings, mother-daughter events, spa parties, “diva dinners” and so many more.  If you aren’t sure what exactly your needs are we can work together to determine just what they are. If you prefer to shop online only or order by e-mail or phone, the choice is totally YOURS!!! I would love to help you any or all of your image needs.  Let’s talk.

Review – Why You’ll Love the New Mary Kay Compact

By Jenny Rapson on October 1, 2008

I’m not a “Pink Lady” (my oh-so-clever nickname for Mary Kay Consultants), but I do love the products they pedal. I’ve tried lots of cosmetics over the years and Mary Kay is what works best for me and is in my price range. So as you may imagine, I was thrilled when the good folks at Pink Lady Central (aka Mary Kay Corporate) sent me their new compact to try out and review.

It. Is. Awesome!

I love it, and here are a couple of quick reasons why you will love the new Mary Kay Compact too!

• It’s customizable. You can put six eye shadows in it, or three eye shadows and a blush, or a blush and bronzer, or pressed powder and highlighting powder…the combinations are literally endless! There is also space for a lipstick or lip gloss and your brushes and applicators.

• It’s easy-to-use. The compact and the items that go in it are MAGNETIC so they stay in place! The compact also has a little tab on it that snaps loose easily when you want to switch out your cosmetics. It’s as simple as can be.

• It’s just the right size. This compact literally fits in the palm of your hand, and slips into any purse, even a clutch! So you can have your beauty essentials with you anywhere! The surface is scratch-proof also, so no matter what else you have in your purse, your compact will still come out looking great!
