Compacts, Brushes, Travel Roll-Ups & More! Chris Hansen - Mary Kay Cosmetics

,

With so many of our Mary Kay products (eye shadows, blushes, and so on) available in little individual plastic cases, our customers like to be able to put together their own color looks -- and store them that way. They can also carry their colors with them in their purse or handbag -- because we have refillable compacts just for that purpose! Come check out the various ways you can store your cosmetics at home or on the go for a touch-up. Chris Hansen will have these compacts for you to see -- as well as our Mary Kay brushes for you to be able to professionally apply your makeup, eye shadow, blush, etc.

What's a "Travel Roll-Up?" Come to hear the answer!

I've been a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant for 16 1/2 years, and I've seen how our products have evolved (including how to store them) for the better over this period of time. Mary Kay is always in the forefront of new skin care products, color cosmetics, and so much more. I love being supported by a company who truly strives to be the best for its customers -- a company that listens to its customers.
