100% of Mary Kay proceeds donated during July 09

My Mark Kay director just delivered a premature baby and I would like to do whatever I can to help with the unanticipated and underinsured portion of the hospital bill, this is one of my attempts to raise funds!

100% of the proceeds of any purchase during the month of July will go to the hospital bill - as the baby is anticipated to remain there until some time in August. 

Your purchase will help threefold - it helps the family with the medical expenses, plus they will get a percentage directly from Mary Kay depending on the volume of sales generated, and I make my minimum orders.  No order is too small!

If you have any fundraising ideas, or can donate any service, place or thing for an auction, please let me know.

Thanks for all you do!

FROM BEAUTY BOARD:

Ooh, I didn't realize I had samples in my "The Look"! Will have to try one today.

Jun 25, 2009 10:22 AM

I received my new Mary Kay summer book in the mail this week and have tried both of the tinted lip balm samples. Both colors are pretty and they do show color on the lip, which I like. I don't always want a sheer lip gloss. There is a slight taste and smell to the lip balms so that might be something to consider if you are someone who doesn't like scents on their lipsticks, etc. Blush is a light to medium brown and Poppy is a dark rose color. Both colors are pretty. Very nice.

I saw these advertised in a magazine and the shades looked good.
From the samples you received, are they sheer or do they give denser coverage?

 

i got a flier in my mail from my mary kay lady. it had two samples of their new colored lip balms in a tube. it seemed really nice from the sample.

DONT FORGET THE PINA COLADA PARTY AT ELEMENTS DAY SPA!

I love their eye shadows. They go on very softly. I am also a sucker for their compacts. I love being able to mix and match to my own specifications and then take it all in my purse.

I used to wear their foundation all  the time and
always liked any of their color products (eyeshadows, 
blushes, lipsticks) and the Satin Hands.  
I had a friend who used to sell Mary Kay, but since 
she stopped, I haven't seen or used it for a long 
time.

I have sensitive skin too, and use the Timewise cleanser. It has just a little grittiness to it. I got permission from my dermatologist because of my rosacea. She said fine, but nothing else in the microderm family. I've also used their products off and on. Their new summer, beachy shadow quad is nice!

Another vote for the eye makeup remover. :)
Also Microdermabrasion kit and Satin Hands kit.
I use the Timewise cleanser and moisturizers, as well as the oil-free moisture - does a great job of holding in moisture for my skin.

I agree, the eye makeup remover is one of the best I've tried. At least get that if nothing else.  MK full coverage foundation is nice and their lipsticks are nice, too.

The Timewise Day Solution is really good, its an spf 25 serum that helps smooth out wrinkles and leaves your skin glowy. Also their moisturizers are pretty good, the timewise ones. Their eye makeup remover is one of the best I have every tried. HTH

Sometimes it's hard to keep a secret!

I'm so excited because I finished a scrapbook yesterday, it's for a first time grandparent for an upcoming baby shower.  I figure the grandma can take it now, or the parents can take it and fill it with photos and give it as a gift themselves.  I have not done any paper-crafting a quite some time, and while this is no masterpiece it was FUN and so glad I finished something I started.  One down, 2 more to go!  The theme is (Lady)Bugs and Baseball.  I painted this table top for the party also.

Proceeds benefiting the Junior Achievement Summer Career Institute

If you have a couple of hours to spare, perhaps you could volunteer for this project?

Volunteers needed to help "Hot Seats" Campers: To volunteer please email or call Marleen Gravitz- 937-3102                 marleenandlengravitz@gmail.com

The Tarpon Springs Recreation Department Summer Camp Program is this year including a project called "HOT SEATS"... a program intended to help develop the artistic talents of our young people and get them involved in thinking about art in a new way.     - An auction of the completed chairs will be held on July 24.!

If you can help (you don't need to be a professional artist, just someone who is creative in spirit) we would need you for one or more of our one hour session. You do not need to bring anything but yourself.

Your role will be to help the campers figure out how to transfer the design to their chair (the chairs are all different), guide in color selection and mixing and make suggestions that might improve the overall design.  The experience of "real" artists will be invaluable to our Camper/Artists in Training.  Volunteer artists will not be painting the chairs.  All paint must be applied by the campers.

IIn addition, each artist will be contributing to our community by allowing the chairs to be auctioned with the proceeds benefiting the Summer Camp Scholarship Fund and the Public Art Fund.  The auction will be July 24 at the Recreation Center on Walton St.  There are 150 children enrolled in the camp program in two groups.  We have several staff people and a few creative volunteers, but we need artists.

Camp starts next week June 15th.  Artists are needed at the following times and places:

Recreation Center, Walton St:
June 15, Monday  Volunteer artists not needed for this session.  Chairs will be sanded and primed
June 23, Tuesday 10:00 - 11:00
June 29, Monday  10:00 - 11:00
July 7, Tuesday 10:00 - 11:00
July 14, Tuesday 10:00 - 11:00
July 21, Tuesday 10:00 - 11:00

Craig Park Recreation Building:
June 15, Monday  Volunteer artists not needed for this session.  Chairs will be sanded and primed
June 23, Tuesday 3:30 - 4:30
June 29, Monday 3:30 - 4:30
July 7, Tuesday  3:30 - 4:30
July 14, Tuesday 3:30 - 4:30
July 21, Tuesday 3:30 - 4:30 

During the first week the Artists in training will select their chairs, sand and prime them.  They will have a week on their own time to plan their designs.

During the second week's one hour session Artists in Training will transfer their designs to their chair and begin painting.  Painting will continue June 29, July 7 and July14.  If more time is needed to complete the chairs, painting will continue on July 21.  The auction will be held on July 24.

Did somebody say CHOCOLATE?

Ok, it's over...if you weren't here last nite you missed the Chocolate Dessert Party, complete with 3 tiered fountain and more dip-able items than the group of 40+ could consume before 1am when I turned into a pumpkin.

Someone had the gall to tell me the fountain was no streaming - WRONGO!

IMG_0001

That is warm streaming milk chocolate!  And mocha wafer cookies, and strawberries.   Not in foto:  pretzel rods, marshmallows, cherries, cookies, Ritz crackers with peanut butter inside, apples, various and sundry other candy items.

And yes, there was 'real food' - some of the best Pannini's & wraps from Mecca and since there are haters of chocolate, a carrot cake (a moist, delicious, 2 layer carrot cake) from STRACHAN'S (FAMOUS for homemade ICE CREAM) and cannoli and cookies from FELICE PORK STORE (when I miss NY I come here...).

And Michelle MADE this cake - she always has to go and impress the shit out of me:

IMG_4217

What a co-inky-idink that these are her initials....Mary Kay... Hmmm.

Now, on to the baby shower.  Looks like I might be hosting over 70 peeps!  I needs a bigger home, a second fridge, more icy A/C, and some chairs for those asses, then everything will be just right.
