The only woman in Forbes' Greatest Business Stories of All Time and the first woman to chair a company on the New York Stock Exchange, Mary Kay Ash has a life story that reads like a Barbara Taylor Bradford novel

Growing up in Depression-era Texas, Mary Kathlyn Wagner is a dutiful daughter and diligent student with ambition aplenty and no place to use it. Married at sixteen, she is a grandmother at thirty-four. When she is not cooking or cleaning or taking care of the kids, she peddles cleaning products to other housewives. The work has no salary and no security but she sticks with it, sure that direct selling will make her dreams come true.

In 1963, after she has been divorced three times and widowed twice, she sets up her own company, selling second chance and self-invention for the price of a skin care showcase. Soon millions know her as the little lady in the big wig who gives away pink Cadillacs. From its unpromising start in a 500-square-foot Dallas storefront, Mary Kay Inc. grows into a global phenomenon with 3.5 million reps in over 35 countries. She becomes the most famous saleswoman in the world. Maybe the most famous ever.

Based on fifteen years of research, Selling Opportunity gives us a page-turning rags-to-riches story set against the background of direct selling in all its overstated, over-the-top glory. Here, for the first time, is the definitive history of a peculiarly American industry and a mid-century mindset that ennobled extreme self-reliance, sticking to your guns, and blind faith in the American dream.

Lovely
Color: Silver White - 02, Color: Silver White - 02
This is the best body glitter I have ever owned. I have a spray one and it is not as shiny as this one. This one has a very good appearance. It literally is shining so bright without the lights being off. This is one drop on my hand that I spread around, it does go on as a liquid and then it dries up and soak in your skin . From the bottle It has a very fresh scent like a very, very light scent, but when you put on your skin, it doesn’t smell like anything so you can still put on your regular perfume without worrying about mixing fragrances. It’s a good decent size especially considering I only did one drop and I get so much glitter!

Perfect Champagne Shimmer for Festivals & Events
Color: Champagne Gold - 01
Color- Champagne Gold shade. So cute! Get it! I always end up getting compliments when I wear this to festivals/concerts/event. It works great not just on your face but all over your body like arms, chest, shoulders, anywhere you want a little extra glow. It adds a really cute shimmer without being too extreme or over-the-top. I especially like wearing it to festivals or events where there are lots of lights or sunshine, because that’s when it really catches the light and looks the best. Once it dries, it has more of a matte finish with a soft shimmer rather than looking overly dewy or greasy. The champagne color blends really nicely with my neutral/tan skin tone, so it looks natural while still adding that fun sparkle. It’s a great little addition to any festival or event outfit. A little bit goes a long way. I’ve probably used this around 20 times already and still have at least half the bottle left. Another huge plus is that it washes off easily and doesn’t flake everywhere or leave glitter all over the floors and counters like some other body glitters I’ve tried. Overall, a great product if you want a subtle but noticeable shimmer! ✨

A little goes a long way, one drop is packed with glitter. Also it actually dries to matte finish, not dewy.
