Mary Kay Acne Mary Kay question. What is the difference between the Full Coverage and Medium Coverage foundation?
My MK lady said it has nothing to do with the amount of coverage but whether your skin is oily or dry. That didn't make sense. I have age spots, acne scars and wrinkles so I like full coverage but she told me to use the medium coverage because my skin is oily. First of all my skin is still oily using this and secondly; I'm not getting adequate coverage having to use a powder throughout the day. Shouldn't I be using the full coverage? I was using the creme-to-powder but she told me because my face is oily I shouldn't use that; I find that at least I got adequate coverage without having to cake powder on all day. All the Mary Kay peeps...help?
Okay, so it sounds like my MK consultant was correct. Maybe I'll stick with the med coverage but use loose powder instead of press powder. Never the less my face is still oily throughout the day. I have to use the blotter sheets for excess oil. I don't use a concealer; maybe that's why I don't get adequate coverage.
Your consultant has told you correctly.
For those who have Normal to Dry skin, they use the Timewise products that have the Pink slash above the word Timewise on both the cleanser and moisturizer (and any other products that have the pink star or slash). The foundation will have a pink like star.
For those who are Combination to Oily, they use the Timewise products that the Purple slash above the word Timewise on both the cleanser and moisturizer (and any other products that have the purple star or slash). The foundation will have a purple like star.
You may want to ask her about the MK Formula 3 products that will help tone down the oil you are experiencing.
The amount of coverage is the same with both the foundations. The one for Full coverage (normal to dry) is going to give you more moisture than the Medium coverage (combination to oily). The medium coverage is designed to give you that right amount of moisture to keep your face from feeling too dry but not enough to make you feel oily.
Here's what I suggest. If you are on the Timewise cleanser and moisturizer for Combination to Oily skin, use less the amount you've been using on the moisturizer. The width of a wood pencil and no longer than one finger joint should be just enough.
I have oily skin, and I also find that using the Day Solution helps cut down the amount of oil. You only need 1 1/2 pumps for your whole face and neck.
Attention Network Marketers! Amway, USANA, World Ventures, Prepaid Legal, Send Out Cards, Mary Kay, ACN, FHTM, Final Destinations, Hello World, Vemma, Mona Vie, Xango, Herbalife, and all you other MLM Entrepreneurs!
Are you not making frequent bonus checks? Are you not making consistent residual income? Are you not sponsoring new business partners?
Are you frustrated?
Ok, now open your mind . . . because it all starts there. And it is your mind that either helps you get to where you want to go or it limits you, preventing you from getting where you want to go.
I want you to picture your goal with your Network Marketing business. Keep in mind that it is critical that you picture this goal very clearly. Some call it your "Why" for doing the business.
Now, I want you to think of your goal as your destination - your success, so to speak. You want to get from point A to point Z. So you develop a desire to travel down the road to success. How fast you get to your success, is totally up to you, if you even get there at all. Now, by what means do you plan to get to your destination? Well, since it is a road, the best way may be to use a vehicle. So, let’s call it a vehicle by which to travel to your dream, your goal, your vision, your “Why”. And if you have not learned by now, the more specific you picture things the greater likelihood of the universe bringing it to you. So let’s call the means your “Success Vehicle”.
The key components of your "Success Vehicle” are the tires. This vehicle has four tires. These four tires represent your belief system. More specifically, four belief systems.
One is your belief system in the company's products.
Two is your belief system in the company.
Three is your belief system in Network Marketing.
Four is your belief system in your self.
As we all know, it is important to have properly inflated tires before you head out on a drive in your vehicle. Unfortunately, our “Success Vehicles” come with different levels of air in each tire. This leads to different levels of performance with the vehicle and how fast or slow we arrive at our destination, if at all. In fact, if you have a flat tire initially, it may take some time before you even move forward on the road. You will have to spend some time fixing the flat or changing the tire. You may have to call AAA and that will take even more time before you are off and cruising along. If you have more than one tire flat, you may have to call a tow truck, which will take some more time before you hit the gas pedal. However, if you are committed to getting to your destination, you will do what it takes to get those tires up to speed so they can carry you to your point Z.
Most likely, your first tire - belief in the company's products had much to do with why you invested money into the opportunity in the first place. The product is usually not the most common tire that needs to be inflated. Now for the second tire - belief in the company. Usually, on your first exposure to the opportunity you get just enough about the company to make you feel comfortable. The length of time they have been around - head quarters, management team, and a few other details. So, your belief in the company may need some additional attention after you sign up. As for the third tire - belief in Network Marketing. Most actually sign up with a very flat tire. It is very difficult to fill this tire on the first presentation or the first training session. Lastly, the fourth tire - belief in your abilities. This one is actually what we bring to the table and has the most potential for improvement that will carry into many areas of your life, not just your new business.
Here are some solutions for you to help get your to your Success faster:
Tire #1 - Make sure you get familiar with ALL of the products the company offers and that you are able to explain them very well to others. Remember, you are the professional so you need to act like one. Make sure you have tried ALL of the products and are using them yourself. Think of how you felt when you went to a nice restaurant and asked the Server how their specialty dish tastes and they say that they have not actually tried it yet. Not good.
Tire #2 - Make sure you print out and read the company's policies and procedures. Call the customer service line frequently and ask good questions. Keep up to speed on any press releases or public spotlights on your company. Quickly read and absorb their training manual and/or their system for duplication and follow it. Attend the first company convention you can.
Tire #3 - Go online and research Network Marketing on Yahoo and Google. Print out articles, good and bad and read them. Begin reading books on the topic. "Your First Year in Network Marketing" is a great first read. Attend your company's events. Most definitely attend the first company convention you can.
Tire #4 - Begin reading books on Leadership and Sales. Make sure you are on as many company conference calls as you can fit in. Attend your local training meetings. Read the company training systems. Have frequent conversations and meetings with your upline (the Associates above you). Attend networking events and practice talking to people, as the more you do this the more your self confidence will increase. Role play with upline, family and friends on your scripting and presentations.
With all tires properly inflated, you are ready to roll. Remember, there are many obstacles and distractions along the way. Always keep your goal in mind, your "Why" - and keep monitoring your tires for leaks. Push the pedal and happy driving!
