Independence Day

Posted by Luanne | Posted in Cosmetics, Freaky Friday, My girls | Posted on 04-07-2008

Happy 4th of July! I hope all of you have an awesome time with family this weekend. We just got home from the fireworks downtown. They were amazing! If we would have had fireworks like that when I was a kid, I would have flipped out. Every year they have to outdo the year before. It was interesting to me that there were still kids that looked bored. What have we done to our children? Fun isn’t even fun anymore unless it has bells and whistles. Did that just show my age?

Anyway, enjoy your family this weekend. Krisha is going to represent Dayton Ballet on a huge Nutcracker float tomorrow morning. I’ll take pictures. Tomorrow I will show you the goodies that Jenny from www.momminitup.com got me at FreeVS (That’s what Jenny calls CVS) Ain’t she cute?

Next week our family will be on a mission’s trip. Pray for us and the families that we will be ministering to. I’ll be back Monday, July 14th.

 

Since this is a holiday, you can get any MK product you want for 25% off! Stock up!

 

Kisses!

What do these three ladies have in common? Nope…it’s not blonde hair or anything bad that came to mind (Cameron Diaz is not so bad) Anyway, it’s HIGHLIGHTER!

One of the #1 trends of 2008-2009 is having a beautiful, healthy, natural glow using bronzers and highlighters.

With new Mary Kay ® Mineral Bronzing Powders and Mary Kay® Mineral Highlighting Powders, customers have more options than ever before for defining facial features, adding a warm glow or highlighting and illuminating! This radiant pair offers complete freedom to mix and match any shade combination to customize the perfect look for any skin tone.

Featuring our new vitamin A-, C- and E-enriched formula, each bronzing and highlighting unit actually includes two shades that can be swirled together with a Compact Powder Brush or the Powder Brush from the Mary Kay

 

® Brush Collection for the most natural effect (tap off excess product after swirling). Each unit is either all matte or all shimmer and includes a recommended skin tone, so you can help customers easily select what’s right for them. Plus, each bronzer and highlighter doubles as cheek and eye color. Two units fit side by side in the new Mary Kay® Compact.

 Mary Kay® Mineral Highlighting Powders

 

 

Highlighting powders illuminate lighter skin tones for a

more radiant look.

 

 

Apply:

  • Under the eyes (great to use after work to brighten eyes after a long day)
  • At the sides of the nose
  • Along smile lines
  • Below the lower lip at the crease of the chin
  • On the chin if you have a heartshaped face to help make the chin look wider and balance the face

     

Mary Kay® Mineral Highlighting Powder

Application Tips

Apply either shade to the area of the face you want to highlight: tops of cheekbones, down the center of the nose, above the center of the upper lip (this defines the lip and gives lips a pouty look without lip liner).

Use 

 

Pink Porcelain only on areas you want to brighten, listed below. (You would not  want to use Pink Stardust because the shimmer is too intense for these small areas.) Note that Pink Porcelain can be used in thesame way as the MK Signature® Facial Highlighting Pen to instantly brighten and lift these shadowy areas of the face.

® Mineral Bronzing Powder

Application Tips

 

  • When used on ivory and beige skin tones, bronzers provide a sun-kissed effect. Apply where the sun hits you: forehead, cheeks, nose, shoulders and décolleté (to even out skin tone).
  • When used on bronze skin tones, bronzers add warmth to the complexion and can even out skin tone.

     

 

 

 

 

 

Eye Makeup Remover

Mary Kay® Eye Makeup RemoverGently removes eye makeup, including waterproof mascara, without tugging or pulling the delicate skin in the eye area. Formula does not leave skin feeling dry. Once you use this you’ll never use another eye makeup remover. It is the best.

Freakin’ Out on Freaky Friday

Posted by Luanne | Posted in Check this out!, Cosmetics, Freaky Friday | Posted on 20-06-2008

I have decided that on Freaky Friday I would do something really freaky and post several MK items that you can purchase at 25% off. Once a month I will post something that you can get for 50% off. Remember…free shipping so take advantage of this …..I don’t know how long I can afford it.

 Since this is the very first Friday, we are going to offer up a 25%off item and a 50% off item. You can only get these items from linking off of this post, but you can purchase as many of an item that you wish. Remember, there is also ALWAYS a free gift if you purchase $40 or more. Ok, here we go……25% off item needs to be something we all need this time of year. How about (drum roll please) …. Mary Kay® Waterproof Mascara!! Do you need it? We all do, so stock up now!

Now for the 50% off item…..how about Mary Kay® Brush Collection! If you only knew how awesome it was you would get one and two more for gifts! Can I get a WOOT WOOT from somebody that knows?

 Anyway…that’s me gettin’ freaky on Friday.

 Kisses!!
