If you’ve been considering getting into the Party Plan business for some extra cash, a new career or even just to get an account to buy your products at a discount then when you consider the amount of different companies out there, it can be hard to choose the right company.

So which one do you choose?

It depends on whether you are getting into the Home Party business to make some money, or to get your favourite products cheaper. If you are only joining to get your own account, then it makes sense to choose a company based solely on whether you like the products or not, how much discount you are eligible for and how much the starting kit is.

However if you are looking to earn some money or build a career, then there are a few more factors to consider such as commission rates, consultant incentives (cars/holidays/cash), and whether there is a market for your product.

You should also look seriously into how much support the company gives it’s consultants. You want to be able to access training and support especially when starting out.

As a general guide, products that are highly consumable such as food and cosmetics, are easier to market because there is always a need for the products, however items such as jewellery and kitchen items are often purchased on a one time basis and are therefore less consumable.

The bag on the left is the extremely popular (not to mention absolutely gorgeous) Chloe bag. The bag on the right is just one of the current hostess gifts that you can choose from if you hold a Nutrimetics party.Â

Don’t you think they look similar?Â

While the bag on the right will never substitute for a real Chloe bag, it’s still not a bad little handbag for us fashion diva’s.

And the best thing is you can get it absolutely free just by holding a Nutrimetics Spa. Ask your consultant for details, but hurry as it may not last long!

Ok, so you are running late again, but you’ve got just enough time to brush your hair and apply the basics!

Here’s the best 3 minute make-up routine I know!

1. Start with a tinted moisturiser – you don’t have time to apply the perfect foundation so a tinted moisturiser is a must have in every busy girls make-up drawer – plus it’s extra forgiving if you don’t apply it neatly.

2. Quickly dab a concealer will cover the most obviously flaws – of course we lazy spa girls NEVER really have flaws.

2. Add a quick burst of blush to the apples of your cheeks. A cream or mousse blush is your best bet here as it’s super spreadable. Try and get a pinky brownish shade so that it will double up as eyeshadow as well.

3. A quick sweep of mascara will finish your eyes and give you that ‘made up’ look.

4. Finally dap on your favorite lipgloss and you are ready to go!

Looking at pictures of models in magazines is enough for anyone to get skin envy, and while most of those pictures are helped by lighting, good makeup techniques and re-touching, it is possible to get glowing healthy looking skin yourself with just a few simple steps.

Today’s lotions and potions are now more effective than ever at ridding any dullness on the skin but of course having a strong foundation of good nutrition, healthy cosmetics (no nasty toxins to clog pores) and lots of water for hydration is the best starting point.

Exfoliate
Your first step to a luminous complexion is to get rid of any dead skin cells that are clinging to your face. While normal cleansing will get rid of some of the dead cells, you really need a scrub or exfoliant to speed things up.

A good exfoliant should have ultra fine smooth particles that will transform your skin without irritation or redness and leave the skin glowing. Using an exfoliant or one of the new at home micro-dermabrasion kit’s once or twice a week will renew your radiance in no time.

For those with sensitive skin, using a facial peel crème with salicylic and glycolic acids will gently remove dead skin cells revealing younger looking skin underneath without any harsh scrubbing that may irritate some skin types. The benefit of using a facial peel crème such as Nutrimetics Ultra Care+ Facial Peel Creme is that they are also very effective at clearing pore blockages to leave your face smooth and radiant.

Moisturise
After exfoliating is the best time to follow up with a moisturiser. The new visible skin that you have revealed will glow if it is adequately hydrated. Dry skin can often look dull in comparison.Â

One of the best ways to moisturise new skin is with a serum or elixir as these ultra light moisturising systems give an immediate hydrating boost to new cells and can restore the skin’s natural moisture balance very effectively giving an instant younger look.
