"I truly believe that make-up and skincare is a part of a woman's personal development. The way you look is important and the way you apply your make-up says a lot about your skills and attention to detail. Putting on make-up is an ability, it is a skill, so you want to invest in some make-up and beauty brushes, and a skin cleansing regimen that works for you."

Exciting News

I will be looking for a surprise in my C13 order! Reps are receiving a Customer Connection Kit so we can create our own personalized advertising blitz to find new Customers!

The Customer Connection Kit includes 30 Connection Cards and a 50-sheet pad of Shopping Lists! By placing a minimum $125.00 order in each campaign from C15-C17 and serving more Customers in C15-C17, Reps qualify for an exclusive Limited Edition Cosmetic Bag Gift Set ($25.00 value).

I'm not sure about the Limited Edition Cosmetic Bag Gift Set though. I don't sell $125.00 in each campaign, so the Gift Set is a total write off. But hey! Just the Connection Kit is good enough for me.

Thank You Avon!

The 7ps You Must Master Before You Accomplish Anything in Life

* Potential - What do you have the ability to do?...
* Preparation - God won’t give you any more than you can handle
* Persistence – DO NOT STOP
* Perspective - What is your view of life?
* Persuasion - How to persuade life… How to persuade people.
* Perseverance – struggles, heartache, pain, disappointment. Persevere through so you can get to
* Power - You are full of power

These 7 steps are crucial to success. I myself, am trying to master these 7 steps, so that I can apply it to certain areas of my life. Like I said in one of my previous posts, I do Avon part-time, it is not something that I'd like to get into full-time. But for those of you who are interested in making Avon a full-time career. Please feel free to follow my blog for motivational updates.

Raw African Black Soap

I purchased "Raw African Black Soap" yesterday, the real thing, the real deal, the authentic stuff, the original. The one you get in Africa! I used it last night, this morning, and I'm about to use it after I get off blogger.com! I am really hoping this will work for me...

Stay Tuned, Stay Beautiful!

Practice what you preach when it comes to business!

I am not a walking Avon billboard as of yet, but rest assure after my c12 order comes, I probably will be. I do not plan on making a full-time career out of this or anything, as I have other goals. But I do enjoy selling Avon part-time for the love and fun of it. I love make-up and skincare, and I enjoy selling it to the women who want and continue to buy from me. So, if wearing Avon products will help increase sales, then I'm in!

As an Avon Rep I get the opportunity to invest in my own personal development at a very low cost. And I get discounts and benefits on products which in turn is a good way to save some money.

As a walking Avon billboard I plan to use an Avon skincare regimen, wear Avon lip gloss and make sure I have on at least one piece of Avon jewelery or clothing when I go out. And of course… I will always, always, always keep brochures and mag-a-logs with me as a way to start an Avon conversation and to find new Customers.

How do you perk up your complexion?

We all have good days and bad days and the same thing holds true for our skin. Whenever I notice my skin looking a little tired and dull, I reach for my mark Shine Fighter Oil-Control Mask. I like the fact that my face tightens up while it's sitting on my face for about 15 to 45 minutes. The tight feeling tells me that it is working, and after I wash it off, my face feels soft, smooth, and the shine is gone. I use this 1 to 3 times a week. I definitely recommend this product.

Once I whip my skin back into shape, I'd like to maintain the healthy glow and even tone. So, I plan to purchase the Luminosity Pro Brightening Serum.

Avon Magix Face Perfector SPF 20

If you have oily skin, you know it can be tough to prevent mid-day shine and keep grease at bay. This primer makes skin look smooth and matte. It helps stop shine during some of the most humid days and it lasts more than five hours!

Dudu-Osun Black Soap

Okay, so I have been doing my research on this Dudu-Osun Black Soap since I started using it about 2 or 3 days ago. Apparently users should start seeing the effects of the soap right away and if not then after a few weeks. The skin will start to feel smoother and for those with oily skin (like myself) your skin will become less oily and more evened out... Claims have been made that it does help with getting rid of discoloration in two ways (I am still waiting to see if this statement holds any sort of truth to it).

First it stops lesions from forming. The oil control and cleansing properties helps to fade overall spots, helping decrease the formation of new lesions as well as help the old ones to go away.

Second, it helps to gently exfoliate the skin when you wash with it, which speeds up the cell turnover and helps dark spots fade.

I wash my face with it as I would with any facial cleanser. It lathers just like a regular soap. Sometimes I leave it on my skin for a minute or two to help it really penetrate, but lately I have been rubbing a piece of the bar gently between my hands then using the foam from the bar to apply to my face in a gentle circular motion. Then I rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, apply my toner, then apply my AM or PM moisturizer. That's it!

I store my black soap in a soap dish. Oh, and apparently you can also use the soap as a shampoo. I haven't tried it as a shampoo as of yet, but I'm tempted too! Anyway, with all the great reviews, I am definitely looking forward to seeing the results as the days go by.

Have a flawless day!

Clear Skin Challenge

I wash, tone, and moisturize my face every single day, twice a day (AM & PM).

Step 1.
Cleanse: Dudu-Osun Black Soap. I had read so much good reviews about this soap, and a friend also suggested I try it, so I decided to stop by the local beauty supply shop to pick one up. Thankfully, I was able to grab the last one on the shelf. I just starting using the soap 1 or 2 days ago, so we'll see how it goes. I really hope this works for me, as I am in a quest to find something that will clear up these darn Acne scars. I really want my clear skin back (sigh).

In addition, I will mask once or twice a week with Mark. Shine Fighter Oil-Control Mask

Step 2.
Tone: Avon Clearskin Professional Clarifying Toner Pads

Step 3.
AM Moisturizer: Aveeno Clear Complexion Daily Moisturizer
PM Moisturizer: Reversa Anti-Spot Night Care

Spot Treatments: Avon Clearskin Professional Daily Correcting Lotion, and/or Neostrata HQPlus Ligtening Cream

Stay Beautiful!

My Beauty Philosophy

What is your beauty philosophy?
Natural is beautiful. Makeup should be used to highlight your own beauty.

What is harder in make-up: to emphasize or to conceal?
It’s always harder to cover something up – in fact, I recommend that women put minimal effort into concealing imperfections and instead play up whatever feature they find most beautiful.

What is your favorite make-up item?
Mascara. This really helps lashes look fuller and the eyes look more alive and awake.

A full face of makeup looks too obvious. How can I make it look more natural?
Makeup tends to look heavy when it is not properly blended. When wearing a full face of makeup, blending is the key to a soft, natural look because it helps you avoid hard lines.

Less make-up is more, so keep it simple!

Why wear it if the world knows it's not actually yours? You don't want to wear make-up if people can actually see that it is plastered all over your face, especially if it makes you look like a different person. You want to make sure that your make-up looks as sheer as possible and as natural as possible. Keep your foundation as light as possible, if you don't need it, then don't wear it, or don't wear heavy foundation.

Product Reviews: Clearskin Professional

Okay so, I received my Clearskin Professional Acne Treatment System Kit last night. I am so excited to see the results after 3 days (lets see if this product really lives up to its claim). I used the Deep Pore Cleansing Scrub, and the Clarifying Toner Pads on my face last night before I went to bed, and I can honestly say that I like it. I like the smell of the product. I like the way the product feels on my face, the tingling sensation from the Deep Pore Cleansing Scrub makes me feel as though the product really works, and I like that the grains in the cleanser are extremely fine, and a pea size goes a long way, so the product may last a lot longer than I expect. This is my official journey to clearer looking skin... starting now!

Peace & Positive Progress!
