Join my Virtual Party

Your Invited!

Yesterday I introduced you to all of the new products that were released by Younique  this week and today I want to extend an invitation to join my Spring Product Launch Party. This is a virtual party (like I told you about here) which means that it is all done online! Younique has created a unique way to party. We use the power of the internet and social media such as Facebook to bring the party to you. There are a few ways to attend a Virtual party:

• Just click on the party link and it will take you directly to the Younique page that is specific to each party. From there you can browse the products, make your purchase and your order will arrive on your doorstep with in days! 

• The next way to "attend" a virtual party is using Facebook Events pages.  When you first go on to the Younique site it asks you to sign in using facebook, the reason being that when you create a virtual party it automatically creates a Facebook event and from there you can "invite your friends". This event page now becomes "your living room",  this is where I, the presenter, can interact with your guests, where I can post pictures and information about the products and guests can ask questions. I even do "contests" or "games" sometimes! So please join my Spring Product Launch Party on Facebook if you would like! I would love to have you join the party! (you can also bring your friends!
• I am also performing an experiment using Google+. We do not have this set up using the Younique site yet, but I created an event in Google+ to see if you could use it as the "living room" like you do on Facebook. I know not every one still loves Facebook so if you are a Google+ fan please check out my event page there as well!

Once you have checked out my Virtual Party and see how cool they really are if you decide you want to host one yourself to earn Free and 1/2 price items just let me know! I am always happy to help people earn products! Just send me an email at youniquebyalynn@gmail dot com

Have a great weekend!

Simply Glorious!

Glorious by Younique $39

Tonight we add more products to our cosmetic collection and I would like to introduce you to another of them!

Glorious!

"Younique Glorious Face & Eye Primer creates a flawless canvas as it enhances the skin's texture and primes and prepares the skin for premium application of mineral makeup. The result is porcelain-perfect, velvety-soft skin with incredible long-wearing, sweat-proof coverage of mineral makeup that casts all day."

One of the things that I love about Younique is that we only sell All natural products. We are proud of our products and of the ingredients that we put in them. We will not only tell you what we put in our products but why we put them there! How many companies can say that? Tonight at Midnight our new face and eye primer, Glorious, will be released and I am so excited! So as promised here are the what and why that makes our primer so GLORIOUS!

Elastin

Elastin is a protein already found in the skin and tissue of the body. It helps to keep skin flexible but tight, providing that bounce-back reaction if skin is pulled. It is most often listed as an ingredient in “anti-aging” skin care products. It is typically harvested from either cows or birds and is said that it should promote better skin elasticity and helps the skin to better hold in moisture. So it’s basic purpose is to boost skin strength; smooth the appearance of wrinkles; and perk up loose skin.

Dimethicone

Dimethicone is derived from its mother element, silicon or silica. Silicon is a natural occurring element and scientists have made great breakthrough in combining silica with other natural elements like carbon, oxygen and hydrogen to form a polymer. It is this polymer called Dimethicone that is in Glorious. It is a silicon-based organic polymer and is widely used in skin-moisturizing lotions and other skin care products. It is also widely used in shampoos because "dimethicone makes hair very shiny and slippery." In a nutshell the main purpose of Dimethicone prevents water loss and protects your skin, and allows makeup to bond to skin and stay put all day.

Trehalose

Trehalose is a natural substance also known as mycose. Trehalose is found in animals, plants, and microorganisms. In animals, trehalose is found in high amounts in shrimp, and also in insects, including locusts, butterflies, grasshoppers, and bees, in which blood-sugar is trehalose. It is actually an edible substance and has a sugary taste on its own. It is an ingredient often found in eye drops to relieve dryness of the eyes, so this is another ingredient that is proven to be very safe around eyes. It is actually added to Glorious to work in conjunction with and stabilize the next ingredient – Vitamin E.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin and antioxidant. That means it is absorbed by the fat, or lipids, in your cells. Vitamin E is one of the most powerful antioxidants, but here is what is important to remember -- your body can NOT produce it on it’s own, which means you have to make sure you're getting enough of this valuable nutrient both in your diet and in your skincare products. It’s been proven that eating foods high in vitamin E and taking vitamin E supplements can't get enough through your food intake can help prevent premature aging of your skin and damage to your skin. Studies show that putting vitamin E on your skin help your skin stay healthier and more supple by ensuring you get enough of this antioxidant vitamin. 

Hyaluronan

Hyaluronan is responsible for smoothing your skin out by temporarily filling in any holes and wrinkles in your skin. Hyaluronan is something that is already naturally found in our bodies, specifically found in our tissue and cartilidge. The average human has about 15 grams of Hyaluronan in our body. Hyaluronan helps to secure moisture and creates this fullness effect—or youthful-looking skin by repairing tissue. Hyaluronan is also a major component of skin, where it is involved in tissue repair. Topically applied, which of course our Glorious Primer would be – this Hyaluronan ingredient helps to form an air permeable layer and penetrates into the outer layer of the skin, essentially boosting the elasticity and hydration of the skin. The protective barrier on the skin locks in moisture, which gives the skin a youthful appearance. As we age, skin moisture can drop significantly, our skin dries out -- which creates aging-like effects on skin appearance as it loses its elasticity. I really think this is one of those magic ingredients that makes Glorious feel so wonderful to the touch on our skin. Scientists and chemists refer to Hyaluronan as a “smart nutrient” simply because it can adjust its moisture absorption rate based on the humidity—relative to the season and the climate.

Butylene Glycol

Butylene Glycol is an organic ingredient that makes our product extremely soluble. It is non-toxic, hypo-allergenic and is typically used in cosmetics and food preparations to keep the product liquefied and soluble. It’s considered very safe by the FDA and is also considered to be an organic preservative which helps give a two-year shelf life to our Glorious primer.

Silk Crosspolymer 

It is what gives the primer the desired silky feeling when you touch it. It’s gives a very smooth and silky texture and acts as a skin conditioner. This is really its main and only purpose, but is really what gives it's silky smooth texture.

Here is a sneak peak of the new Younique products being released tonight! They will be amazing!

A Younique way to Party!

Have you ever hosted a party with direct sales company? I know I have! I invited 20 of my "closest friends" to come to my home for a party. I plan my menu of snacks and clean my house from top to bottom, find a sitter for my kids and when the party finally arrives......4 people show up.....UGGG
I know you know the feeling!
At Younique we take the party to a whole new level...and location...the internet! We have harnessed the power of social media and turned it into one big party! When you agree to host a younique party here is what you do:

• Log in to your Younique account and start a 3,5 or 10 day party. Just write a welcome to your friends or use one of ours, choose the photo or video you would like in your party page. This will automatically create an event using Facebook events (other social media sites coming soon)
• Log in to your FB page and invite your friends, as well as your Younique Presenter. :)
• Once the party starts the Presenter (that's me) will be posting pictures and videos to introduce our products to you and your friends. The more you interact with me the better your party will go, your friends want to see someone (other then me) excited about these products. 
• Sit back and enjoy! No need to gather orders or then deliver orders, everything is done online! Guests can order from the comfort of their own home and their product is shipped immediately, no waiting for the party to end!

Hosting a Virtual Party really is that easy! So what is in it for you as a hostess? You will receive:

April Presenters Kit

Spring is a great time to start something new!

The other day I did this post about some of the great reasons why I became a Younique Presenter. I loved so many aspects about the Younique business that I became presenter #27 before they had even launched any products! When products were launched the following month and I placed my first order of 4 mineral pigment shadows, brushes and 3D Fiber Lashes I was excited. Once I tried them I was in love!! Now it is your turn!

Any one that signs up as a Younique Presenter now through April will not only be considered a founding presenter but will also receive the following in their $99 Kit:

• 15 Matte Mineral Pigments ($150 Value)
• Presenter's Guide
• White Status Charm and Purple Bling Pen
• One-year FREE website ($120 Value)
• $33 Younique Cash to spend on product or business supplies
• Triple Digits Founding Presenter Charm

Plus as an added gift for joining my team I will also give you a set of 3D Fiber Lashes! (a $29 value)

This really is an amazing time to join the Younique Family! We are growing every single day, yet this is still a "ground floor" opportunity. There are just over 400 presenters in the US which means that your area may be "wide open" territory! You could be the first! If you have been looking for a great business that values your time, talents and you as a women then Younique is the place to be! I am looking for more dynamic women to add to my team, will you be one of them?

As long as you’re online, you don’t have to worry about losing clients. Of course, if you prefer to host home parties instead of virtual parties, you can still do so! You can still meet with your customers if you want to demonstrate the products in person but you can also utilize social networking sites like Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram to spread the word about your business and your products. Shipping is low priced at $5.50 for any order OR FREE for orders $100 or more! You have complete control over how you would like to run your business while having access to the company’s business tools.              

The Younique Compensation Plan—Outlined in your Presenter Guide--As a Younique Presenter, you begin at 20%, once you reach $1,000 in PRS (personal retail sales) you get a raise to 25%; even on purchases YOU make on YOUR website, you are paid. There are also sponsorship bonuses each month up to 6% of monthly company sales as you build your team! The goal is to build your team and encourage your team to build theirs too!! The success potential is limitless for ALL of us. Since you get your own Younique VISA debit card, you can easily access your earnings within 24 hours following a sale---no waiting for payday. By the way, there is also a cruise for 2 to be earned by anyone who reaches a certain status by September 1^st, 2013. I’d love to tell you all about this realistic goal once you’ve joined my team!

Become Younique Royalty! –-Since Younique is still a very young company, they are very much open to new product ideas. Another way of earning some extra income is by pitching in an idea for a product and if your idea gets chosen, you’ll earn royalties for that product for as long as you remain a Presenter for the company! Younique is the first company to ever do this! We are making history! One of my ideas is currently 1 of 13 that are being considered for the first round of the Royalties Program! I am so excited!

Younique Parties & Hostess Rewards—Younique parties are fun, convenient, and rewarding. Once your hostess has agreed to host a Virtual party, Presenters will educate them of Younique’s products so that they can be knowledgeable to party guests on their own. After the party, the VPH (Virtual Party Hostess) receives an email informing her of how much rewards she has earned! Hostess rewards are based on the party’s total retail sales and are quite gracious. I’ve already had numerous successful parties, it’s easy and super fun! You create your parties right from your personal website; our VP tool makes it very easy.

As you can see, Younique offers a truly exciting opportunity for those who are interested in starting their own business. Since it’s fairly new, it’s the perfect ground floor opportunity to join, as your business can grow as the company grows.
