IMAGE101

YOU NEVER GET A SECOND CHANCE

First impressions are very powerful and extremely difficult to change because we tend to treat others like objects, placing emphasis on how they look and sound, explains Ann Reiten, a certified image professional.

                                                7% Verbal (What you say)

As you can see, what you look like and what you do speak so loudly, most people don't hear what you are saying.  IMAGE 101 is about establishing a deliberate and favorable impression to assist others in believing the evidence of what they see.  Present yourself visually and behaviorally as a successful person, others will respond to you accordingly.

NEW YEAR - NEW YOU

• Beauty Bangs:  Bangs cover a multitude of sin, or should I say               forehead wrinkles.  You can actually take years off by adding long, side-swept bangs or horizontal bangs if you have the right face shape.  Check out our Get Gorgeous Guide for more styling tips.  Or come by the Arlington or Village of Fairview salons in Texas for a free hair consultation when you mention this article
• Get Skin Care Religion:  This is the year to get serious about a skin care regimen.   What have you been waiting for?  The clock is ticking and you just can't go to bed with your makeup on any longer.  I have developed a quick and easy AM & PM routine that only takes 5 minutes.  If I could put all the nutrients you need for healthy beautiful skin in one bottle, I would do it.  Unfortunately you can't.  That's why you have just a few simple steps each morning and night and the cumulative effects overtime are amazing.  I've been doing this routine for almost 30 years and it works.  The secret is in the ingredients of each step that work synergistically together.  Check out our skin care kits and get started today and reverse the signs of aging that years of neglect have produced.  For more details, check out "Ten Minute Wrinkle Cure."
• Bright Eyed & Bushy Tailed:  OK, forget about the bushy tail, but you do need brighter eyes. Unfortunately, as we age, our skull shrinks and our eyes tend to sink in.  Dark circles can be more obvious since skin thins and more veins show through as well.  The Hello Gorgeous Mineral Illumination Wand works miracles.  Simply click the end and the mineral highlight drenches the brush applicator with light-reflecting mineral particles that will brighten dark circles and shadows.  Brush on inside of nose under brow and bring down under eye.  Smooth with ring finger.  Great for those cheek furrow lines and the creases in the corner of the mouth.  You will love this product!
• Hollywood Contouring Secrets:  We all wear clothes that contour and flatter our shape so why not try a little face contouring with our incredible Mosaic Bronzer.  Tiny squares of light, medium, and dark shades adjust to the most natural appearance I've ever seen as a makeup artist.  Apply under chin, along outer jaw line and temples for a slimmer, leaner face.  For body contouring, check out all the new under garment shapers at Hello Gorgeous in the Village of Fairview, Texas at Stacy Road and Central Expressway.
• It's Prime Time:  If you are having a problem with the vanishing makeup syndrome or you just need a smoother finished look to your makeup, you definitely need Retexturing Face Primer.  It's a colorless, weightless, light-reflecting serum.  It helps neutralize imperfections while giving foundation a fault-free base.  Apply one to two minutes after your moisturizer.  Makeup simply glides on like silk and lasts all day long.
