-Part of our April Spotlight Sponsor-

Just a wee bit late but still just as spectacular!

Disclaimer from Steph:

We had a little delay in getting the Spotlight Sponsor done in April, due to hectic schedules and vacations, so we send a huge apology to all of our loyal readers who follow and support all of our Spotlight Sponsors.

Most of you have probably heard of Mary Kay, been to a Mary Kay party, ordered and used Mary Kay, or know someone who sells it. Mary Kay has been around since the 60's and has continued to provide skin and body products all over the world through their direct sales.

One of MBP's Spotlight Sponsors is Maria L., who is an Independent Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay. When we first started working together, Maria wanted to first find out a bit about me, my Mary Kay experiences, my favorite products, my makeup/skin care preferences, etc. She was very thorough and easy to contact, always getting quickly back to me. Every month Maria has offered all of us at MBP great products and wonderful customer service! You can find out a bit more about her or contact her here.

I couldn't wait to see what Maria had decided to feature this month and what I would get to try out. I love, love working with such helpful, kind, and knowledgeable Spotlight Sponsors.

My package is here!

The Mary Kay shipping box is fancy. The regular brown box is covered in pink swirls both inside and out. The package was kept safe inside with packing peanuts. Mary Kay is also doing their part in keeping "green" by using both a box made with at least 30% recycled content, and biodegradable packing bio-peanuts. Inside my May Kay box I found a shipping order, complete with everything that should be in the box, including my sample cards. It also had Maria's contact information and the Mary Kay Satisfaction Guarantee.

Inside my Mary Kay box I found 4 great products to try out, hooray!

The first product I opened up was the Limited Edition Mary Kay Base Coat/Top Coat Nail Lacquer

The next product to try was the Limited Edition Mary Kay Nail Lacquer in Lava

 The color looked a little dark for my usual summer tastes, but I was all for trying out something new and different. The nail lacquer comes in a .25 Fl Oz bottle and is available in two colors, crushed pearl and lava. I applied the first coat and was pleasantly surprised to see it was more of an orangey-pink with a shimmer to it, it was lighter then what the bottle was leading me to believe. I applied two coats of Lava to get the right coverage. I am very pleased with the color and will be perfect for summer toes.

 Very simple and clean packaging in a light mint color provides a great start to the Mint Bliss. The lotion comes in a 3 Fl Oz. container. Just opening the lid, I could smell the mint. It was not overpowering at all, and as I put some lotion into my hand, all I could think about was mint chocolate chip ice cream. I followed the simple directions, massage lotion onto bare legs and feet, and was pleased with how soft and smooth they felt and how great they smelled. The Mint Bliss Energizing Lotion for Feet & Legs is created with a cool mint formula to help tired feet and legs feel revived, while offering a cooling sensation. I have to say my feet felt great.

The final result, using all three of my Mary Kay products from Maria

Maria also included some Satin Hands Hand Cream, which I am a huge fan of, so thanks for the little extra fun! Fragrance free and makes your hands feel super soft when you apply the cream, so nice.

My feet are feeling ready for summer and beach vacations, yours can too! Just check out Maria's Mary Kay page and see what products are best for you.
