Instant Face Lift and Wrinkle Reduction

Everyone wants to experience the phenomenon that's sweeping the nation.
I often treat myself to and instant face lift for half the price of going to the Spa.  This system is great for both Women and Men by BeautiControl.  I believe a hard working woman should never sacrifice her beautiful skin.
Treat yourself to a multi-action resurfacing treatment regimen that leaves your skin looking and feeling years younger. The appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, hyperpigmentation, sagging skin and pore size are all greatly diminished. You benefit from the synergistic strength of two powerful exfoliators followed by the instant tightening and firming face creme and eye firming serum. See a younger you after the first treatment.*
Step1
BC Spa Resurface Multi-Acid Resurfacing Peel
This clinical strength chemical exfoliator is packed with advanced multi-acids that loosen the “glue” holding dead skin cells together. By loosening this glue, it is much easier to remove these cells and let your healthier skin shine through.

Step 2 BC Spa Resurface Microderm® Abrasion For Face
This physical exfoliator is your alternative to expensive microdermabrasion treatments performed in a medical spa or doctor’s office. It removes the surface layer of dead skin cells that have been loosened by the Multi-Acid Resurfacing Peel. It’s a wonderful way to truly reveal the younger, vibrant skin hiding behind dead cells.

Step 3 Regeneration® Tight, Firm & Fill® Eye Firming Serum
Once you’ve exfoliated your face you need to apply our fabulous anti-aging products. Start around your eyes with Regeneration® Tight, Firm & Fill® Eye Firming Serum. The patent-pending, triple action peptide blend immediately tightens and firms your skin. The revolutionary Hyaluronic technology will firm the skin around your eyes, while it plumps and fills the wrinkles.


Step 4 Regeneration® Tight, Firm & Fill® Face Creme Apply our fabulous anti-aging products and watch them work their magic. Your face will immediately feel soothed by Regeneration® Tight, Firm & Fill® Face Creme, as the patent-pending, triple action peptide blend immediately tightens and firms your skin. The revolutionary Hyaluronic technology will also plump and fill wrinkles to diminish their appearance.

SPA Means Skincare Solutions!

Let me introduce you to Laura’s spa secrets.  I have done it again and found something that’s too great to keep a secret.  In today’s economy who can afford an afternoon at a Day Spa every other week or an overnight stay?  If you manage to save enough money for a day at the Spa; it cost too much to walk out the door with a goody bag of products.  I don’t know about you but I am tired of buying sub-standard products off the store shelves.  Lord knows consultants of specialty brands have tried to sell me skin care products and makeup in my own home.  Their specialty brands had irritated my skin. In some cases, when the consultant applied their product on my face during the first sampling.

My aunt introduced me to “BeautiControl” and I fell in love.  Now I can enjoy a spa escape in my own home as often as I want for half the price of a spa visit.  Renewing the mind, body and spirit is a rejuvenating experience.  My skin is glowing, healthy and wrinkle free at age 46. My friends and I have been talking about spa ever since my first introduction.
When we talk about SPA, we are not talking about bath and body products.  When we refer to SPA, we are referring to the same high end skin care solutions that you find when you go to exclusive day spas.  The SPA has always been a place that is known for aggressive, skin care treatments, not just a place to go to pick up your bath and body products. 

When we talk about BeautiControl SPA products, we are talking about those cosmetic alternatives to Botox, Restylayne, collagen injections, or other forms of dermal fillers, clinical Microderm Abrasion treatments, chemical peels as well as those exotic mud masks, salt glows, cellulite treatments and other such services that are provided at day spas around the world.  When we talk about SPA, we are talking about skin care solutions…plain and simple.  High end, state of the art, technologically advanced treatments that are recommended by a spa professional. 

Why BeautiControl Spa?
The only differences between going to a Spa to get your treatments and the products that are offered by Beauticontrol are #1, the cost…#2, the inconvenience.
BeautiControl offers an anytime spa experience in the convenience of your own home with products that are customized by a skin care professional – YOU!

So, to help you visualize what I am talking about….think of it this way.  Think of BeautiControl not as a company, but as a Spa.  You know, like a Canyon Ranch Spa or La Costa Spa, or any of those other exclusive day spas.
When you book an appointment at the BeautiControl Spa, you have just taken time to yourself to indulge in an experience that becomes part of your daily routine.  If BeautiControl were an actual Spa these would be just a variety of the services that you will find offered:

Menu of services

God Bless You Etta and May You Rest In Peace.

Legendary blues singer Etta James dies in Calif. I can recall many nights lying on the couch in my living room (a candle lit room) sipping on a glass of red wine and listening to soulful sounds of Etta James. God bless you Etta and thank you for sharing your gift of song with the world.

A Reflection on Martin Luther King Jr. most Popular Quotes.

A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

It is not enough to say we must not wage war. It is necessary to love peace and sacrifice for it.
Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.

Man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.

Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?' 

An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.

At the center of non-violence stands the principle of love.

Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.

Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.

Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies - or else? The chain reaction of evil - hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars - must be broken, or else we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation. 

He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.

History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people.

Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable... Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals.

I am not interested in power for power's sake, but I'm interested in power that is moral, that is right and that is good.

I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant. 

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. 

I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made straight and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together.

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit together at the table of brotherhood.

I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.

I just want to do God's will. And he's allowed me to go to the mountain. And I've looked over, and I've seen the promise land! I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promise land.

I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.

I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.

Small Business Tax Survival Tips.

If you're like most people, then it's safe to say that the current economic climate has gotten you down in more ways than one. Just take a look at The Occupy Wall Street Movement; how it has spread far and wide in such a short period of time. It's no secret that this country is in crisis mode and people are literally fighting for their lives. Working Americans are being strangled by taxes! Every month we pay more in taxes than we spend on housing, food, transportation, and health care. WHERE'S OUR CUT?

Have you ever wondered how the "rich" maintain their wealth? Have you ever wondered why so many people are attracted to owning their own business? Profits you say? Absolutely, but there is one outstanding advantage to owning a home based business even if you fail to make any profit at all.

Running a part-time home based business is the biggest way - the only way - the average person can have a major impact on slashing his/her taxes. You can save thousands of dollars every month and year on your taxes simply by being a small self-employed business owner. Ultimately, it' not about how much you make, but rather how much you are able to keep in the end!

How hard is it to qualify for Small Business Tax Deductions? It's EASY! All you have to do is meet these four simple tests:

Have a legitimate business such as real estate investing, consulting, network marketing,     freelancing, child care, internet marketing, direct sales, etc. 
  1. Prove you intend to make a profit. You do not have to actually make a profit before qualifying     to take these deductions, but you do have to show you intend to make a profit.
  2. Work your business on a "regular and consistent basis." At least 45 - 60 minutes a day, 4 - 5    days per week.
  3. Document your business Income, Expenses, and Activity Brief, hand written notes in a    scheduling diary is usually enough.
That's it! If you meet those four simple tests, you probably qualify for some major home based business tax deductions, which could reduce your taxes by thousands of dollars every year, for the rest of your working life.

NOTE: Before filing your tax return(s), please be sure to consult with an experienced Tax Pro who specializes in home business tax law for optimal results.

REMEMBER:  Charity! Donations!  Don’t toss out unwanted items (clothes, appliances, toys, jewelry, books, electronics, videos, home furnishing and the kitchen sink). Please collect a receipt for all donations in reusable condition and report it on your taxes.  Collect a receipt for all monetary donations.  If you tithe at church you should receive an end of year report of all your donations to file on your taxes.  All your donations should add up to at least $8,000 in order to receive a noticeable return on your taxes.

Understanding the Biblical Description of a Virtuous Woman.

Studding the character of a Virtuous Woman can prove to be invaluable in helping all women to manage her time, resources, gifts and talents God has given her. Throughout the centuries women have been amazed and challenged by her life. There's a Virtuous Woman in all us.  I believe that most of us are transforming into this Biblical description of a mature woman. I've recognized her characteristics in some of my closest women in my life.  As daughters, we've never really questioned were did the description of a good girl, a respectable young lady, a woman of worth, a woman of quality or a phenomenal woman comes from in society.

Where did the generations of women adopt the ideology of a perfect woman?
Why do societies around the world expect little girls to grow into respectable woman? 
In all honesty it's challenging to live up to her standards. I find that most of us women do grow into the image of the Virtuous Woman in our own time. Some women can honestly say it has taken them ten to twenty years of their adult life to meet her standards. I do believe this is a transformation process.  Lets examine the description of her characteristics and the biblical text that introduced a Virtuous Woman to the world.

31:10-31
The description of what a wife should strive to be and the type of woman a man should seek to marry.

The acrostic form of the passage conveys the beauty and comprehensiveness of this woman.

We don’t have to be married to transform into the image of a virtuous woman. As woman we must value ourselves and know our worth.

31:10-12
A “Woman of Strength” who is trustworthy and would never does anything to bring dishonor to herself or family. “All the days of her life” indicates forever committed.

Ladies, let’s not dishonor ourselves by low living (fighting, adultery, prostituting, selfishness, laziness, procrastination, dishonesty, cheating, and allowing ourselves to be used by unworthy men).


31:13-15
This woman is industrious. Whether she put her hands to the task or supervised others while they worked.

She is an efficient and organized homemaker, always watching over her home. This business woman is a Leader who manages well. She is an entrepreneur who understands prosperity.

God has blessed us Ladies with many gifts and talents. Use your gifts and talents to bless others or to
grow profitable. Some of us are entrepreneurs and some are just simply fabulous. We all have something positive to offer in the form of service, talent or wisdom. Keep in mind Ladies theirs a business woman in all of us no matter if we own a business, manage our homes or responsible for a task in someone else’s business.

31:28, 29 

This is the description of a wise woman of strength. The testimony of all her friends and family who know her illustrates her worth. She is loved and blessed. She is a blessing to others.

Throughout time many godly woman were recorded in the Bible, but the Virtuous Woman (Wife) described in
Proverbs 31:10-31 receives special is praise. A rare woman who is a paragon of virtue: trustworthy, industrious, organized, and loving.

She is able to order the priority of her world. Her husband totally trusts her. Her grown children praised her and her home was a model of efficiency. She found time to reach out to her community, too help the poor and to increase her family’s resources through wise investments and productive management. Her relationships and responsibilities were wisely balanced. The Virtuous Woman was truly outwardly beautiful as she was inwardly wise.

The Virtuous Woman
Proverb 31:10-31 NKJV

10 Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is
     far above rubies.

11 The heart of her husband does safely trust in her, so
      that he shall have no lack of gain.

12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her
     life.

13 She seeks wool, and flax, and works willingly with
     her hands.

14 She is like the merchants' ships; she brings her food
     from afar.


15 She rises also while it is yet night, and gives food to
      her household, and a portion to her maidservants.

16 She considers a field, and buys it: with the fruit of
     her hands she plants a vineyard.

17 She girds her loins with strength, and strengthens
     her arms.

18 She perceives that her merchandise is good: her
     lamp goes not out by night.

19 She lays her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold
     the spindle.

20 She stretches out her hand to the poor; yea, she
     reaches forth her hands to the needy.

21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for
     all her household are clothed with scarlet.

22 She makes herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing
     is fine linen and purple.

23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sits
    among the elders of the land.

24 She makes fine linen, and sells it; and delivers
     sashes unto the merchants.

25 Strength and honor are her clothing; and she shall
    rejoice in time to come.

26 She opens her mouth with wisdom; and on her
    tongue is the law of kindness.

27 She looks well to the ways of her household, and
    eats not the bread of idleness.


28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her
    husband also, and he praises her.

29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but you excel
    them all.


30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman
     that fears the LORD, she shall be praised.

31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own
     works praise her in the gates.
