The First Step

Hello!

My name is Kate. I am a twenty-four year old mother of two beautiful boys and a step-daughter and a stay at home mom. My boyfriend was a relator but when the recession hit he had to take a job in a meat processing plant. Our lifestyle changed quiet a bit and then we had a new addition to our family. Our life has been blessed but we are still looking to brighter days. I have been at home with my kids now for four years and after working as an insurance agent it is difficult sometimes to not be able to provide more for my family. So, I made myself a promise that I would search for a way to fulfill myself and pursue my dreams. After much searching the answer came to me in the form of a woman with a ready smile and an opportunity, my Mary Kay lady! I had never considered it before but after hearing her talk about the wonderful things she had accomplished within Mary Kay I knew I was ready to make a change.

I have just ordered my starter kit! I have always had a passion for cosmetics and skin care - my overflowing make-up drawer could testify - and now I have the chance to not only do something that I love but to create some income. I have never been so excited in all my life, and I have read all the horror stories there are to tell online but I truly feel with my sales background I have the upper hand.

So I am starting this blog to document my journey with any luck to success but I will tell it here; the good, the bad, and the beautiful. I will also post some general how-to videos for skin care and make-up but also demonstrate some of the Mary Kay products and colors as I receive them. My first video post will be 'My Philosophy on Beauty'.  Please follow up soon to view.

I invite you all to take this journey with me. If you are a Mary Kay consultant or customer or if you just have something to say please comment!
