Do Me a Favor: Let Me Send You Some Free Samples!

While I can't send you a sample of the AMAZING 3D Mascara, I'd be more than happy to send you a few of these rich, luscious pigment colors.

Most commonly, our pigments are used the way you use eye shadow- on the lids. BUT, they are all natural and chemical free, so you can mix them with your mascara and your lip gloss for custom colors, OR, you can even brush them into your hair for temporary colored highlights! So versatile!

Please do me a favor: Let me send you some of my samples. Try it. You'll like it! Then, you can buy your own gorgeous colors!  Click the Pic to get to my store, or contact me to request your samples!

FAKE LASHES!

Now, I've never even THOUGHT about getting lash extensions, but apparently this is a real thing. And apparently it's popular.

However, do you know how much it COSTS to get lash extensions? It cost up to 350.00 with 60.00 touch-ups! For my family, that's 2 weeks worth of groceries! I don't know how this is affordable, or why this might be a priority for some people. (Even if I were rich, there's no way I'd be spending that kind of money on something like that.) PLUS, lash extensions are extremely damaging to your real lashes.

On the other hand, there are fake lashes. I'm extremely familiar with fake lashes. For the longest time, I would wear fake lashes for every picture I was in, because it made my eyes pop. I also wore them on stage, as I've done a lot of community theater, and making your eyes obvious is a big deal. The problem with fake lashes is that they LOOK fake. They also itch, get caught, come unglued, and they're just SO uncomfortable.

Well, I came across one lovely gem, which was a professional headshot of me from a few years back. And I'm wearing FAKE lashes. Now, don't get me wrong, I look good! But then, I compared my picture to my recent ones, where I've got my magic mascara. And guess what? THEY LOOK BETTER!

Check it out! Click the Pic to get your own Younique 3D Mascara! 29.00 is a fraction of the cost for lash extensions, and feel light-as a feather. They're hypoallergenic, so they won't cause itching, or feel heavy on  your lids.

It's Not Like I MEANT To Fall in Love.

Okay, so, awhile ago, September 2014, I was invited to an online party about some mascara stuff I didn't even care about.

I wasn't really a makeup girl. I mean, that's absolutely NOT me saying I was some kind of "tomboy" or one of those girls who wears yoga pants all day and throws my hair in a ponytail every day. I'm actually incredibly girly and feminine, which is one of the big reasons my husband loves me. That being said, makeup was just a thing I had to do. And I DID it. Not a lot of it, but I did it. Foundation, eye shadow, maybe a bit of blush, mascara, and my favorite Dr. Pepper Lipsmackers lip gloss.

So, I hung out at this party, not intending to buy anything, because it so happens that my husband and I, though we had previously married in July 2013, were planning a big shabang for our temple sealing in September 2014. I was paying for that, and I have 5 kids...so I was tapped out. Anyway, not to be a jerk, I stayed in the party and participated, asked questions and so on...but I wasn't planning on buying anything. I was stuck on my cheap department store makeup. I'd tried Mary Kay. Blech. Avon? Eh. You know, makeup is makeup. (Except for Mac matte red lipstick. LOVE and drool all over the place.)



Well, that party ended, and the girl who was presenting for the makeup company, who happened to be a very good friend of mine, messaged me about possibly doing a party to help me get makeup for free. Well....makeup might be makeup, but FREE makeup is also FREE makeup, if you know what I mean. In addition, the perk for September was that if your party qualified, you could get the mascara for free. The mascara is what interested me anyway because rumor had it that you could multiply your lash length by up to THREE TIMES.


Rumor had it, you could multiply your lash length by THREE TIMES! 

Since I was getting sealed and it was, for all intents and purposes, my WEDDING day, I had planned to wear fake lashes, since all cameras would be on me. I've done some modeling in the past, and I ALWAYS wore fake lashes- it's just like being on stage for a play or dance recital. You need your eyes to pop or they look like they're tiny or not even there. Anyway, I was going to wear fake ones. But I thought, you know, if I got it for free, then why the heck not? So I was like okay, I'll do it. Besides, I wanted to be a supportive friend.




Well, my party kicked tuckus and I got my free mascara, and tons more free and half priced items. The only thing I didn't count on was falling deeply, madly in love with all of it.

For the next two weeks, I deliberated and argued and changed my mind back and forth as to whether or not I should "join up" and finally, I did. I became an official Younique distributor. I figured, I'd get almost 400.00 worth of makeup for 99.00 and then, I could sell just enough to make up the difference. The only issue was, I ended up earning 5 TIMES what I paid for it just in the first month. And now, I'm a BIG makeup girl.

So that's it. that's the story. The whole sordid thing. I'm in love and I'm stuck and there's no way out. But that's okay. I'm really liking it here.
