My Mary Kay Makeover & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #69

They say there is a first time for everything. I say great things happen outside of your comfort zone. So here it is…me going way outside of my comfort zone and doing something I have never done on my blog before…I am going to share a picture of myself without makeup. Brace yourselves for it…I am so not comfortable with this! But if I am going to share my Mary Kay makeover with you all, I guess I need to share my starting point…my face sans makeup!

*This is not a sponsored post.  As always, all thoughts and opinions are entirely my own.

So there it is…I faced my fears and I am no worse for wear. No big deal, right? Now I want to introduce you to my new friend, Janeigh Grady, a Mary Kay Independent Sales Director.

Meet Janeigh Grady, Independent Sales Director for Mary Kay

I met Janeigh at my weekly ladies’ coffee meet up on Wednesday mornings. Her personality is so infectious as she bubbles over with passion, enthusiasm, energy, and a giant zest for life. She is definitely my kind of people! She is a survivor, a fighter, a sweetheart, a kind soul, and she gives one hell of a makeover with some really fabulous makeup and skin care tips to share as well. Janeigh is extremely knowledgeable about the products and the brand that she represents and we had so much fun during makeover time!

These scrubs and lotions really did make my hands and lips feel like silk!  I couldn’t get over it. So cool!

Janeigh encouraged me to try a more minimalist make up look for this first time around and I really quite liked it! The foundation was super light and airy and she even taught me how to contour. Turns out contouring is way less intimidating than I thought it would be! And the lip colors were fantastic as well. Now to figure what I need to add to my daily makeup routine.

By the way, I haven’t colored my roots in some time because I am trying to decide what I want to do next.  Ideas are always welcomed!

Then I headed outside for a quick photo shoot of my new Old Navy tie sleeve tee. And of course, it was snowing. Because it’s only April.

You probably didn’t spot the snow in those photos. Wait for it…

You see it now, right?  I think it is finally over though!  Or at least I am hoping so.

Thanks so much, Janeigh, for making me feel so pretty! And for sharing your inspiring life story with me. And for being totally awesome and completely badass and such an amazingly cool chick! I will see you at the next Ladies’ Coffee!

The featured favorites from last week are two of my good blogging friends (who are also good friends with each other) and they both shared Spring shopping haul posts! Always fun!

Kellyann from This Blonde’s Shopping Bag shared her post, So A Woman Walks into Old Navy and……and I had a good chuckle at this post because I can so relate. And seriously, Kellyann, who does send someone else to buy a swim suit for them?! I can’t even imagine. But men/boys are strange like that sometimes, I think.

And Lisa of Coast to Coast shared her post, Spring Loft Try On in Time for a Sale. Seriously, Lisa looks great in anything she puts on. Although she may disagree with me about tee shirts, but I still think that olive tee is super cute on her.  You need to hop on over to her post to see what I’m talking about!

By the way, Spring is a great time to treat yourself to a makeover and try some new makeup and skin care tricks as well.  So go on and schedule a pampering session for yourself soon!

Keeping it on the edge,
