A funny!

This is SO TRUE!

You get your value and money worth with Scentsy!

Knock-Off's and wanna be scents are EVERYWHERE....

And are almost always cheaper.  BUT....

Scentsy scents LAST longer, so for the value, you get more for the money!  Also, Scentsy is made with non-toxic chemicals.  Who KNOWS what's in the "other guys" scents!


Just another reason to try Scentsy!!  ;)

**July ONLY**

OKAY, so it's ALMOST July!!  Know what that means??  No??  Well here, let me tell you!!


It means...
That in the wonderful world of Scentsy!...
20 BRING BACK MY BARS will be available!!  July only!!

So, what are "Bring Back My Bars"?  (I'll abbreviate as BBMB)  BBMB's are Scentsy scents that were once discontinued.  The public voted on them, and after nearly 4 MILLION votes, the top 20 are being brought back for JULY only!! 

This means your FAVORITES (and more than likely your NEW favorites if you are new to Scentsy) are available again!  Woohoo!! 

For a list of BBMB's you can visit my FB Scentsy page and click through this photo album...

Know what else is super cool in July?  THIS "Ohana" warmer! 

What screams summer more than ocean blue "waves" and FLIP FLOPS???  (If you are from the south like me, you know it takes pretty cold weather to get us out of our comfy flip flops!)
(To order, go to www.allisonmckenzie.scentsy.us starting July 1st and search for "Ohana"! 10% off the entire month of July!)


Alright, so consider this - July means what?  BBMB......cute new warmer....... and possibly the start to your own amazing Scentsy business??  Now I've said this before, and I'll say it again...ok?  So listen.....and I mean this EVERY TIME I SAY IT.  Scentsy has been the BEST decision for me!!  I am a stay at home mom who has tried numerous "sell this product and get rich" SCHEMES.  None of them "work" like Scentsy has worked for me...because Scentsy is not a SCHEME.  The reason is because people NEED Scentsy...everyone could use a great gift to give to someone!  And who doesn't love a fresh smelling home for guests?  Scentsy is fun, fresh and unique!!

Well anyway, I believe July is the perfect month for YOU to start YOUR Scentsy business. (Not to mention, because these BBMB scents WILL SELL and you will have a TREMENDOUS first month with Scentsy!!) Remember, Scentsy provides you with all the tools needed to start.  Train at home, ONLINE!  And speaking of training.....I TRAIN MY TEAM MEMBERS WITH TOOLS, RESOURCES, IDEAS and FRESH SELLING TIPS FROM THE DAY THEY SIGN UP UNTIL......well......until they don't need me anymore!  But I have never had a team member "not need me"...because we become such great friends that we just BUILD OUR BUSINESSES TOGETHER!!

Think about that.  And find me on FB once you decide to join!  www.facebook.com/findscentshere.scenty

 

Spiritual Alphabet

Our oldest daughter is 2 years old, and she's just starting to learn her ABC's pretty well.  It amazes me how such a little person can soak in and remember so much!

Well, one of her new favorite books (given to her at birth, but we are just now allowing her to get her little hands on it) is her Spiritual Alphabet Book.  We are Christians, and instilling the love of Christ in our girls at young ages is very important to us.  What a wonderful way to do that!  A spiritual alphabet book!  We love it so much, that I wanted to share with you the SPIRITUAL ALPHABET!! 

*****First - to give credit where it is NEEDED.  The book is "My Spiritual Alphabet Book" by Holly Bea.  The illustrations are wonderful and colorful, perfect for little ones to keep their attention!  Illustrations done by Kim Howard.*****

This is my Spiritual Alphabet - God made it just for me.  So when I count my blessings, I can use my ABC's!

I absolutely adore this book, as does my 2 year old!  I am so happy to see her learning and most importantly reading and beginning to understand in "easy words" the love of God.  Such a neat book....ALL parents need this book!! 



Smooth *Summer* Feet

It's that time of year!!  Summer!!

Fun in the sun - sand, water, BBQ's, swimsuits and sandals! 

Wait....Sandals??

What about our WINTER feet that have been stuck inside closed toe shoes and boots??

Dry, rough feet are NOT cute in sandals -

no matter what pretty color nail polish you pick out!!

Well, you can pay for a pedicure of course, and what lady doesn't love a good pedi?!  But for those of us who spend most of our time at home with children - you know, wake up and do everything revolving around your precious babies then at the end of the day realize you barely ate or had a bathroom break...well, you more than likely don't have time for a pedicure!

And you of course can try products that "shave" your rough skin down...like those egg-shaped deals that literally shave your skin off.  (It doesn't hurt, but think about it....ewww!)

Well here's what I do:

All you need are 2 products that will last you a long time!

That's right!  This is all you need for Smooth Summer Feet!

I use Stridex Naturally Clear on my FEET after a nice shower or bath. 2 pads are needed (one per foot).  Then slather on some nice skin care lotion.  This is just Equate brand from Wal-Mart - doesn't have to be expensive!  And I prefer non-scented on my feet!  (Even though, yes - I am a Scentsy consultant and Scentsy has AMAZING smelling body lotions that I use on my body.  I simply prefer non-scented on my feet!)

The acne pads slough off dead skin and adds a little medication which kills bacteria.

The lotion, of course, adds moisture!

Please note: ANY acne pad will work.  HOWEVER, Stridex Naturally Clear does not have alcohol - which I assume would DRY your feet even further.  That is the reason I choose the Naturally Clear.  :)  If all you have are acne pads with alcohol, give it a try still and be sure to moisturize those feet afterwards!

I at first did this for a week, and now that my feet look and feel better, I keep it up every few days as I feel necessary!

Now that your feet are SMOOTH -

what are your favorite nail polish colors for summer?? 

Mine this year are bright purples, blues and of course PINK!
