This ends up being a night in which Mary Kay consultants get together with other members on their team to learn from each other and recognize their accomplishments and goals. After being able to try some of the products for myself, including the Classic Red lipstick that I love to wear so much, I had a really fun time, met some great people, and learned more about what the Mary Kay opportunity is all about.
I had been to several Mary Kay skin care parties myself when I was younger. I remember being excited to get my first makeup compact that held all of the shades to create a complete look customized to myself! At the time, I didn't know much about makeup, didn't wear a lot of it, and only knew some basic steps to applying it. I even remember being a little intimidated by the consultants and thought that was something that I would never be able to do, even though I liked doing makeup. I did, however, know that I loved using the Timewise, especially as I got older. Eventually, Mary Kay products turned into a great idea for my mom to gift me with at Christmas and birthdays! I knew it would be something that I would love and certainly use!
I believe that I must have been in high school or just out of high school when a friend of mine, Niki Galla, had a Mary Kay skin care party and I was approached about the opportunity by the consultant. My immediate reaction to that was absolutely not! Not a million years did I think I would be capable of doing something like that and I probably thought she was crazy for even asking.
It turns out that there is just the right time and place in one's life to have everything fit together just right. When I attended the Success Event that Monday night, yes, I was approached about the opportunity, but it didn't feel pressured, it just seemed to feel right. Of course I was a little nervous committing to something like this in the beginning. I had my concerns, mostly being worried about when I could fit this in my already busy schedule, particularly because of the travel I'll be doing as Miss Heartland Swing.
After giving the idea some thought, it just seemed like something that I could see some potential in. Not only do I know more about makeup and applying it, but I practically have studied it from learning how to get a 1940's look. I already know and love using the products, so it's something that I can certainly stand behind and believe in. I'd love to help others create a look that will help them feel confident and beautiful on the inside and out. Andrea, my recruiter, has been extremely successful with it, so I have faith that she can help me succeed! I thought that if it's something that I could see myself doing in the future, why not start now?
After finally deciding that this was something that I wanted to do, I got my starter kit, held my first Mary Kay skin care party, and got my personal consultant web page for anyone to shop 24/7 with me. Now I just need others to help and support me. I would love to be your Mary Kay Consultant if you don't have one already! I'd love for you to Host your own skin care party, or even do a one-on-one color consultation. I need all the practice I can get, and if you're interested in the opportunity yourself, I'd love to provide you with more information and potentially have you as my newest team member! If I ask you to be a face model for me, I hope you take it as the biggest compliment!

Since I started, it's been hard going too long without the words "Mary Kay" coming out of my mouth. Little did I know that Galla, who invited me to that party all those years ago, would turn out to be my first personal team member as well. As my boyfriend, Dan Pfeifer, has said, it's like my newest obsession!
