Summer is here! With the rising temperatures, you may notice that your skin has gotten a little bit oiler, and it's going stay that way until the leaves start falling several months hence. Have you adjusted your skin care for the hotter months? It's just like changing your wardrobe for Spring & Summer. Not only might your skin care need to be tweaked, but your foundation might need it, too. 
Even if you always wear sunscreen and are rarely in the sun, you still have incidental exposure. Most women will get a little darker during these seasons. Time to go up on your foundation shade, and maybe even switch formulas for the summer. Find the right Mary Kay foundation for YOU here, and email me to get matched. If we're not in the same area, I'll send samples. 
I've found that my clients who lack confidence in their foundation are often attempting to use the same shade and formula year round. In most cases, that just doesn't work. I will work with you until we get it right, since Mary Kay has a fabulous 100% Satisfaction Guarantee! 

My suggestions for Summer foundations: 
Timewise 3D Foundation in Matte or Luminous  - Set with Translucent or Pressed Powder
Mary Kay Mineral Powder Foundation 
Mary Kay Endless Performance Creme to Powder Foundation 
Mary Kay CC Cream with SPF 15 

If you use a Normal to Dry skin care formula during the winter, you may benefit from switching to a Combination/Oily formula for Spring and Summer. If you always use a Combination/Oily formula, you can ramp it up for summer. Your regimen can be customized for you, just by adding some of the products listed below: 
Clear Proof Acne Treatment Gel 
Oil Mattifier 
Beauty Blotters 
Clear Proof Deep-Cleansing Charcoal Mask 
Any or all of the products from the Clear Proof Acne System 

Check out all Mary Kay's skin care lines here - lots of options! They can all be tailored to your needs. Do you use another brand? Compare values and consider giving Mary Kay a try. It's 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed, so it's risk-free! 

 And don't forget the sunscreen! But that's another post . . .

Summer Perfect Feet & Legs

It's the season for beautiful feet! Your feet are on display every day. You are either giving yourself regular pedicures, or having them done at a salon, but what are you doing in between to keep your feet looking their best? Here are my tips for feet and legs: 1. Every time you don your athletic or yard work shoes, take a minute to go over your feet with a foot file to smooth out any rough spots, and then apply a generous amount of Extra Emollient Night Cream , or the Hand Softener in the Satin Hands Set , all over your feet and toes. Then go do your workout, and let the heat and the Cream do their magic! You'll be amazed, when you remove your socks, how soft and smooth your feet look and feel! 2. Keep the Satin Smoothie Hand Scrub, from the  Satin Hands Set * , in your shower, along with a fingernail brush. After you've worked out while wearing the Hand Softener/Extra Emollient Night Cream on your feet, hop in the shower and wash your feet with the Sati...

The Modern Cat Eye - Video Tutorial from Robert Jones

Updated April 19, 2017 Makeup Artist Robert Jones show us how to do a modern "Cat Eye", using Adele as his inspiration.  To watch him do the eyeliner, skip ahead to about 6 minutes in.  It's worth watching the entire process, though.  He also applies false eyelashes.  For the eye shadow, I recommend combining the Mary Kay Cream Eye Colors of Pale Blush and Beach Blonde, and then topping that with Sweet Cream Mineral Eye Color to acheive an opaque color.  For the eye liner, start with MK's Black Eye Liners , and then go over it with a liner brush dipped in Coal Mineral Eye Color, which is a powder.  Or try MK's Liquid Eyeliner Pen  or Black  Gel Eyeliner  for a dramatic line.  Note that Robert does not apply foundation or concealer below the eyes until AFTER most of the eye makeup is complete.  This is done so that any stray eye makeup under the eye gets cleaned up, & the raccoon effect is avoided. ...
