Not Just One Bad Apple

Posted on November 14, 2024

Probably the most frequent challenge I hear to our real-life experiences with Mary Kay Cosmetics (other than “no one held a gun to your head!”) is “Oh, there’s always one bad apple in the bunch. Don’t judge the entire company Read more…

$10,000 Unit Production Doesn’t Give You Executive Income

Posted on November 13, 2024

Written by PinkPeace Who still thinks that directorship is the way to real money in Mary Kay? There are lots of beauty consultants who think that if they just can make it to the “elite 2% of all those in Read more…

Mary Kay Does Not Work For Everyone

Posted on November 1, 2024

A Mary Kay consultant tells us how easy it is to make money in Mary Kay. After all, with minimal effort, she sells $400 to $500 in reorders. And if she worked more, she’d make more. She was told there Read more…
