moms and beauty

Since many of you know, I’m a stay-at-home mom and of course, I’m not working outside of my home. Anyways, I really want to start an online business so I thought I would give Ebay a try. I have a lot of makeup that I have accumulated over the past few months, stuff that I have bought to review for my blog and other stuff that I bought because it was on sale and I just had to have it at that moment. I also have hundreds of makeup items that I bought wholesale for the sole purpose of selling it on Ebay.  
Some of the makeup that came in the wholesale lot that I bought are items that have been discontinued and aren’t available for sale in stores anymore, like certain eye shadow or lip gloss shades from Milani, Revlon and Maybelline.  Anyways, for the next couple of days, I will start auctioning and selling my make up on Ebay. I still haven’t posted anything because I’m waiting for my shipping supplies to arrive and I need to weigh packages to get an accurate shipping cost, take tons of pictures and write detailed descriptions on the items that I’m selling.

I’m new to this Ebay stuff and I hope I learn the ins and outs of it soon. I’m currently working on another website or online store where you can see all of the items that I have up for sale in one place: KamilahRose.  By the way, KamilahRose is also my User ID  on ebay.

Anyways, I’ll let you know when my first items are up for sale.
Wish me luck! ;)

MEET mark….

I’m an impulsive person.  I often make decisions without thinking about the consequences first.

Like last night while watching TV and browsing the net, a commercial about being a mark representative came on.  I watched it just like any other commercial but then without even thinking about it, I typed in their web address and next thing you know, I was signing up to be a mark rep.

While I was reading about the benefits of being a mark representative and how easy you can start selling their cosmetics and fashion products, I just had to sign up.  I didn’t even hesitate to pay the $20 start-up fee.

Now that I’ve had more time to think about what I did, I don’t regret it.  I’ve always liked Mark’s makeup and skincare products.  And I’m proud to be associated with the company.  However, even if I don’t sell much, the start-up kit and free bonus that you receive are definitely worth more than my $20 investment.

Okay, I just want to make something clear.  Just because I’m a mark representative doesn’t mean I’m going to review their products and give them a better rating.  I don’t want anything to jeopardize the honest relationship that I’ve been working hard to build with you.

Most of the makeup looks or tutorials that I do from now on will probably consist of makeup from mark.  Also, I will post many pictures and detailed information of some of their makeup and skincare line, so YOU can decide if it’s something you want to try.

thebeautyofmakeup@thebeautyofmakeup.com-makeup reviews-beauty and makeup-beauty review-natrual look-neautral makeupWhew!!  The holidays are now officially over.  I don’t know about you but I’m happy to see them end.  Well, at least for now that is.  

I’m just sooo excited to start the new year.  I have many wonderful things that I wish to accomplish this year.  Besides trying to spend more time with the family and making this year better then the last, I plan to do a few things that will make me feel good and accomplished. 

I’m currently a stay at home mom but that doesn’t mean that’s all that I have to be, right?  I can be or do just about anything that I want. 

As many of you already know, I have a BS degree in Business Administration.  And so, I’ve decided that this year would be the year that I put all of my business knowledge to great use.  How?  Well, by starting my own business.  It would have to be something online, of course.  I mean I still want to be a stay at home mom but I also want to be a successful business woman. 

I have a few ideas of the type of online business that I wish to open.  However, I still have a lot of research to do before I can even think about inaugurating an online business.

Also, I want to spend more time working on this site  and would like to create another review site on one of my other addictions-BOOKS.  I love reading!!  

Beautiful makeup and a good book, now that’s a GREAT day for you.

Hmmmmm….soooo…

Have time for my family, start my own online business and work on two review sites?  Whew!!  Now that’s ambitious, don’t you think?   But do I really have what it takes to make all these wonderful things happen? I know it’s easier said then done, but I’m willing to put in the long hours to make my dreams a reality. 

Okay, maybe starting these new ventures isn’t the hard part but making them into a success, now that’s the part to really focus on.

So, what are your plans for the year?  Anything differently you wish to do or accomplish for your family or self?  I would love to hear about all the wonderful things you’re set to do this year.  Now, don’t be shy girls ( guys?) and tell me all about it in the comments! 

Truly, I hope this year will be your best year ever!!!  Love, Rosa.
