Experiencing skincare problems can cause stress and low self esteem, but Plymouth State University senior Sujeeta Silwal offers a solution: beauty care by Mary Kay. America’s best-selling brand, Mary Kay, carries skincare products, makeup, spa & body treatments and fragrances for women of all ages and skin types.
“Being beautiful is not just having clear skin,” expressed Silwal. “For women it is about confidence. Mary Kay can change a woman’s life by making them beautiful inside and out.”
An Independent Beauty Consultant for Mary Kay Inc., Silwal, 22, earned the title over two months ago when she completed the training sessions sponsored by Mary Kay Inc. Silwal explained that when she moved from Katmandu, Nepal to the United States, the different environment caused skin problems for her. After she tried numerous facial products with no result, a friend, who is a Mary Kay consultant, introduced her to the line of skincare products. The consultant gave Sujeeta samples to try and the products improved her face, so she decided to purchase the products and learn more about the company.
Mary Kay Inc. was founded in 1963 by Mary Kay Ash to enrich women’s lives by providing women with a business opportunity and quality products to improve a woman’s image. The company’s mission statement details the importance of high quality products, great financial opportunities for the beauty consultants, and the value of individual growth and achievement for the women whose lives are touched by Mary Kay. Ash is responsible for creating a corporation with a goal to improve a woman’s life both by job opportunities and the tools to succeed in life. “Every failure, obstacle or hardship is an opportunity in disguise. Success in many cases is failure turned inside out,” Ash states on MaryKay.com, “The greatest pollution problem we face today is negativity. Eliminate the negative attitude and believe you can do anything. Replace `if I can, I hope, maybe, with ‘I can, I will, I must.'”
Silwal was attracted to Mary Kay Inc.’s positive attitude towards success and a life filled with happiness. “I am a very people person and I love reaching people’s lives and making a difference,” she said. “Mary Kay is inspiring because anything is possible when you work at it and believe you deserve it.” She said another great benefit of investing in the company is that Mary Kay offers rewards to the consultants to say “thanks” for the achievements the Independent Beauty Consultant earns through the number of sales. The rewards range from pins of dollar signs and money amounts to the famous Mary Kay pink Cadillac.
Mary Kay products are not sold in stores or online. The only way to purchase the products is to contact an independent beauty consultant for Mary Kay. However, on the official website www.MaryKay.com, a complete list of products, descriptions, and prices can be found along with the most current catalog.
By contacting Sujeeta Silwal at sujeeda@marykay.com or by phone at 603-254-3960 an appointment can be set up to create a customer profile. Do not let language be a barrier for not calling; aside from English, Silwal can speak Nepali, Hindi, Urdu and is knowledgeable in Spanish. Anyone who is interested will be given a free facial and opportunity to try samples of the products before making a final purchase. Most of the popular products Silwal has on hand for the customer to take home with them, but if something needs to be ordered, the wait is not long.
After a purchase is made, Silwal calls within two weeks to make sure the product is working up to the standards of the company and to the consumer, and that overall the customer is happy. Customer satisfaction is important to Mary Kay Inc. and to Silwal, so if a customer is not satisfied with the purchase it will be taken back and exchanged for another product.
Silwal also provides skincare classes, makeup application classes, and parties. With the holidays just around the corner, this is the perfect opportunity to get the girls together to have a party and make out a wish list to give to their boyfriends, friends, and family for gift ideas.
“The most valuable gift that I have learned is to give to others the ability or faith to think positively. I really believe in giving and sharing and this business gives me that opportunity,” said Silwal.
