Advertising in Style!

Do you work for a direct sale company?  Do you know someone who does?  One thing I LOVE about selling Jamberry Nails is that I get to wear them and everywhere I go, they get attention.  I love that doing something so easy, like applying and wearing beautiful nail shields, brings attention to my business and starts a conversation about Jamberry.  I don't have to go out of my way to bring up the topic--it's a natural response to a comment on my fabulous nails!

While you may not sell Jamberry nails, wouldn't it be great to have a similarly easy way to bring attention to your product or business?  Take a look at the picture I created below.  You can see that some of Jamberry Nails beautiful designs tie in wonderfully with the theme and colors of many direct sales companies.  Imagine spending 15-20 minutes putting on a lovely set of nail shields and letting your beautiful manicure advertise for you wherever you go, without effort! 

When someone comments on how great your nails are, it's easy to say, "Thanks! I love this design because it's the same colors as Mary Kay's (or whatever you sell), which I sell.  Would you like my business card? I'd love to tell you more about our newest line..."   You get the picture.  You don't have to feel like a pushy sales person--people will bring up the topic themselves when they see your nails, and you simply steer the conversation toward your business.  What could be more natural, easy AND cost effective.  At $3-$4 a manicure or pedicure, you won't find fantastic advertising for any less.  

If you don't see your direct sales company listed below, just give me a call or browse through the catalog on my website: www.molzer.jamberrynails.com.  These designs are, by no means, exhaustive--there's multiple designs that can apply to any direct sales company.  You can mix and match for more impact or to change up your manicure so you're not wearing the same thing every other week (did I mention a typical manicure will last about two weeks and a pedicure can last six-plus)?

If you're not familiar with Jamberry Nails yet, check out my website at www.molzer.jamberrynails.com and take a look at how easy they are to apply by watching the official YouTube application video at: http://youtu.be/3DrAekEj0Z0.  If you're totally sold on the idea, consider booking a party.  It's a great way to introduce friends to a fantastic product and earn FREE shields for yourself.

A Healthy Body is a Beautiful Body

A simple entry today on fitness.  Remember, this is Outside-Inside Beauty and it matters to me what's going on inside my body as well as outside.   I think a healthy body is a radiant, beautiful body.  Right now, I do not have a healthy radiant body--to be honest, I've let myself go...a lot.  And I've had some recent health problems as a result.  Now that the kids are back in school, I have more time to devote to "me time", and I'm using it to take care of my body--this includes starting a regular workout routine.  I've checked in with my doctor and I'm good to go.

So, today I started out by walking the kids to school, which is all down hill for them, and all up hill for me on the way back.  It ends up being a mile and half round trip.  Then I did the first day of a new routine I found on Pinterest.  MY GOODNESS!  It about killed me but I like the variety of exercises and I'm looking forward to the feeling of it getting easier.  

Take a peek at the workout and feel free to copy it yourself or search for your own and start the journey towards getting fit (or staying fit)!

Detoxing Smoothies

I've embarked on the world of "green" smoothies, recently, because my doctor told me I need to include more fiber in my diet as well as eat more healthy fruits and vegetables on a regular basis.  While I like smoothies as a general rule, I've never been a fan of meal replacement.  I've never found smoothies to satisfy me the way "real food" does.  If I drink a smoothie, I still want to eat--so I wasn't really excited about this prospect.

However, I went into it with an open mind.  I invested in a Ninja (I love saying that!). 

Who knew a Ninja would be so great in the kitchen...seriously, though, it's the best blender I've ever had.  It has individual serving cups and it's quick an easy to clean up (something I hated previously about using a standard blender, is taking it all apart and cleaning it every time).  

I've been drinking smoothies for three weeks now and I'm surprised at how full I feel afterward. I had never made smoothies like this before, incorporating vegetables as well as fruit (and no ice cream or yogurt!).  They taste good (wasn't expecting that either) and my difficulty with finding an acceptable morning meal has been solved (I don't care for most breakfast foods).  PLUS, Cainan has been having one for a snack everyday, as well--he's especially fond of kale and I pack it in there!

My standard smoothie has been a mix of frozen blueberries and cranberries, a big bunch of spinach and/or kale, frozen cherries or strawberries, some flax seed and a little orange juice to smooth it out.  The Ninja pulverizes everything into a sweet, frozen blend and I don't taste the greens or flax.  It's yummy and surprisingly filling.  

Recently, I came across a great picture resource for detoxing the major organs in your body.  I was pleased to see that my regular smoothie covers a lot of it but I'm glad for the information.  I can tweak them a bit if I want to work on a whole body detox (of course, the rest of my diet would need a big change, too).  Here it is for your perusal:

Solving Foot Problems with Vinegar

It turns out that vinegar is a great remedy for many foot ailments, from tired feet to common toenail fungus to dry cracked skin.  I found a great blog that gives simple recipes and instructions for several types of vinegar soaks for the care of your feet.

The "Rice Bag" Method

I just tried out the new “rice bag” method for applying my Jamberry Nails and I LOVE IT!!  Okay, they were pretty easy to apply with the hairdryer but I’m always one for finding the most convenient way.  I love that I can sit in my bed at night, while my husband watches TV, and I can do a full manicure without the smell bugging him, then go right to bed.  Sound good?  Well, with no dry time using Jamberry Nail Shields and by applying them with a warm rice bag, that is exactly how quick and easy it is.

If you’re familiar with applying Jamberry Nails, then you prep your nail as usual—clean, push cuticles, file, buff and clean again with alcohol or nail polish remover to get all the oils off.  Pick your favorite shields, cut the size you need and apply it to your nail.  Now, take a rice bag—like the kind you use for warmth in the winter (I’ll tell you more about how to get them in a bit) heat it in the microwave for 30 seconds to a minute (depending on the size of bag you have), use the warm bag to apply pressure and smooth your nail shield on.  I think you get better adhesion with this method than with the hairdryer and I think it’s even easier than the dryer! Depending on how quick you work, you might have to heat it a couple of times.

I am going to be making a bunch of these little babies and using them at my parties to demo, as well as hostess gifts.  One of my downlines has even started selling her little hand warmer creations, which double as Jamberry Nail Shields applicators.  I love it!  Based on her recommendation, I actually used flax seed instead of rice because they are flatter than rice grains and I liked the way the bag lays when stuffed with them.  You can use either (instant rice is NOT recommended).  To try it out, I just put some in an old baby sock, tied a knot in it and heated it up.  Worked like a dream.  Now I’m going to make more (that aren’t baby socks).

And I love this pattern better than any I’ve tried so far!  Exotic Paisley is just lovely!  So feminine and summery—goes with about anything I would wear this time of year.  Remember, you can order directly from my website at www.molzer.jamberrynails.net.   Order three and get one FREE—what a deal!

Manicures for a Cause

One the things I love about Jamberry Nails is their commitment to charity.  Currently, Jamberry Nails offers four lovely designs that help bring awareness to specific issues, as well as donates money to their causes.  The first is Autism Awareness.

My Jamberry Nails have always been attention 

getters and great conversation starters.  With this nail shield, it's a great way to bring awareness to Autism, start conversations about why Autism awareness is important to you, and a way to raise money for the Autism Society.  Jamberry Nails will donate $2.00 for each sheet of the Autism Awareness shields to the Autism Society.  Make a statement with your manicure, help raise money for an important cause and start a conversation about Autism.

I've seen these shields look fabulous applied to just a thumb or index finger with a lovely solid blue (blue for Autism awareness) or red on the other fingers.  I love how colorful these shields are and how they help bring awareness to an important cause.

The second charity is the American Cancer Society and this feminine pattern raises Breast Cancer awareness.  Again, Jamberry Nails will donate $2.00 from the sale of each sheet.  These are lovely and another great conversation starter when people catch sight of your manicure.

The third charity is one I had never heard of.  I was so excited to learn more about their program.  The Pay it Forward (PIF) movement is a charity that promotes compassion and care on a personal, one-to-one level and encourages each person touched by an act of kindness, to carry on a kindness to someone else. It's an amazing charity and you can learn more about it by visiting their website at www.PIFexperience.org. 

 Again, $2.00 from each sheet purchased will go toward this charity and you will also receive PIF wristband with your purchase.  I think the black and white pattern is classy but I really love the color.  This is a great way, especially paired with the wristband, to bring awareness to and help support an AMAZING charity.  

If you're interested in any of these fantastic shields, contact me or order directly from my website:  www.molzer.jamberrynail.net
