Professional Makeup Artist recommendation for Dublin

Posted by Chris on December 30th, 2013

I would recommend professional makeup artist Debbie O’Brien for special occassions like weddings

Debbie works in and around Dublin, Ireland and is a Motives cosmetics specialist

Here’s Debbie’s introduction to herself:

Hi everyone, and thank you for taking the time to stop by and have a look at my website. I feel that to be a really good make up artist you have to have two things, a creative flair with cosmetics and also a really good rapport with people. Since make up artistry was not my first love, it was however something I always said I would get involved in at some point. Having spent many years in the hospitality industry, I built up a fantastic work ethic, key qualities, such as always being punctual, pride in my appearance, attention to detail (slightly OCD at times to be honest) and most importantly I pride myself at being really good with people.The many years of experience from that industry, built the foundations I needed, to do what I really always wanted to do, and that was to become a make up artist. It’s not a job for me, in the sense that I don’t dread going to work!! I spend hours looking at new make up trends, new fashion trends, browsing from make up counter to make up counter, ensuring that I’m not limiting my knowledge in any way.

Its also really important to me that I don’t allow myself to be slotted into any one category when it comes to age brackets and make up styles. I really believe it’s important to teach girls from a very young age, how precious their skin is, and how important it is to look after it properly. So if its a young lady wishing to have her first make up experience, or a lady that wishes to celebrate her 50th wedding anniversary, its my job to make every woman feel fabulous!!!

Here’s some testimonials from happy clients:

TESTIMONIALS

Official Make-Up artist for the Tweeting Goddess – Sam Kelly
Winner of Tweetie inspire award and star of RTE’s Dragons Den and ‘She’s the Business’

Debbie did my make up for the Tweetie awards in October. I was delighted and felt beautiful after she worked her magic!! Debbie is a professional and also puts you at total ease and I put total trust in her. I will be using her as my make up girl from now on! Highly Recommend!!! – Sam Kelly

After being disappointed with my original bridal make-up trial, Debbie(Decadent Beauty) came recommended through a friend. I was quite fussy about what kind of make up I wanted for my big day, Debbie really listened to what I wanted done but she gave a few suggestions too which worked out perfect. Debbie was so professional and insisted on getting my make up just right, she wanted to be 101% sure I was happy with the end result on my make up trial. On the big day, she kept me calm and stayed right up till I was ready to leave my house to touch up any last minute lippy etc. I would recommend Debbie to any Bride that is looking for hassle free make up artist to do their make up on their special day. I would definitely use Debbie again for any future events. Helen

I could not recommend Debbie enough. She graciously agreed to do my makeup on my wedding day. I have never felt so beautiful. The look she created for me was exactly what I wanted (although I actually didn’t tell her what I wanted) & it lasted all day. This photo is taken hours after I had my make up done and it stayed this fresh all day long, bearing in mind I got married in Greece and it was also hot. Honestly, Debbie is such a professional & highly skilled, everyone commented on how amazing my make up was. Susan.

Best Online Cosmetics Shopping Site

Posted by Chris on December 25th, 2013

There are many online cosmetics websites but this Motives site has the latest fashion forward products from New York and Miami

Motives cosmetics is the quality of Chanel or Dior at less than the price of MAC

Adopted by some of the most famous celebrity makeup artists in the world, Motives cosmetics is sweeping the world but is as yet unknown to the mainstream buyer.

Eminating from New York and Miami based Loren Ridinger and LaLa Anthony – friends of celebrities like the Kardashians, Jay Lo and Alicia Keys – Motives Cosmetics and Motives for LaLa ( designed for women of colour ) is a cutting edge cosmetics line that was designed by women who wore the best for women who want the best but at an affordable price.

The reason that so many celebrity makeup artists are adopting Motives is that it is amazing quality at really low prices.

Motives can be obtained from selected makeup artists and discerning salons in the UK but it can also be obtained easily online >>> HERE <<<< n.b. this is a U.K. site for U.K. purchasers there are alternative cosmetics sites HERE for the US and HERE for the rest of the world.

Please contact me if you have any problems buying cosmetics from any of these sites. I am on twitter @cwindley on skype at chris.windley and on mobile +447881 500002.

If you need assistance identifying the right cosmetics for you I have makeup artists that can help you. We don’t have people everywhere in the UK at the moment – and in fact if you would be interested in representing Motives in your area please ask for more information.

Motives Makeup Business Partner Fast track to Director in the UK

Posted by Chris on December 9th, 2013

We are announcing a scheme to fast track 20 selected individuals to Motives Business Director level by the end of 2014

Behind this initiative are $Million earners, startup specialists, small business development experts and digital marketing moguls

The Motives by Loren Ridinger and LaLa Anthony Cosmetics range has taken the world by storm not only for the quality, fashion forward nature and affordable pricing ( typically you get higher quality and more product at half the price of high end cosmetics ) but also for the innovative promotional and marketing techniques utilised.

Loren and LaLa.

The ” Instagram Project ” as it is known within Motives is probably one of the most successful promotional efforts in the world. Avoiding advertising and paying for promotion Loren and LaLa provided product to beauty bloggers and Instagramers and they produced pictures and blogs that generated 100’s of leads within days and carry on doing so.

It is this marrying of Digital promotion with what is quite clearly a product range that needs personal attention and face to face selling that is so powerful.

A Motives Business Director will earn around £144,000.00 ( £144K) a year ( NB A Director earns between £12K and £18K in a 4 week pay cycle ) but to get to that level you have to get through about 10 Business Levels. There are a number of examples of people getting to that level in around 11 months so to get there by the end of 2014, for the right person, putting in the right activity, with the correct level of knowledge and skills, this is entirely possible.

As the C.E.O of Motives parent company, JR Ridinger, says .. what you need to provide is the PASSION !!!!

Photo: Motivational Monday: Wise words from our CEO.

YOU are going to be someone that is PASSIONATE about the beauty industry. You might be – but don’t have to be – a Makeup Artist, a salon or spa owner, a Nail technician, a hairdresser or a skincare specialist.

You KNOW that the beauty, health and wellness industry is a multi-billion opportunity. You also know that although you love the industry, meeting people and making them look and feel beautiful you are NOT getting properly compensated for the time, skill and effort that you are putting in. The shop or salon you work in is making some money and the Directors and shareholders of the product company are also making money but YOU are NOT.

If you are a shop or salon owner then you know that you need to MAKE MORE MONEY but you might not know exactly how to do it.

Most people that become millionaires, multi-millionaires or billionaires have done it because they started a business of one sort or another and they either stayed with it until it grew into a big company or they ” exited ” from it – sold or floated it on the stock market.

Some of the ingredients to a successful business are … great products or service, attractive brand, scalability and replicate-ability and some element of divorcing time from money.

You will probably know about the need for a business to have great products, service, branding and marketing.

You might not quite understand the need for scalability ( ability to grow ) , replicate-ability ( repeatable model ) and how to divorce time from money.

They are all tied together and the fact that the Motives business is both an online ( Internet based ) and offline ( face to face ) business is highly relevant here.

So, let me just tell you some of the key people that we have in the team here ( excluding for the moment JR and Loren Ridinger and LaLa Anthony themselves ) :

Lisa and Don Martin – Million Dollar earners with Motives and Market America.

International Business Development and Motives Specialists – Rob and Joyce Jenkins

Small Business Marketing Advisor and former Advisor to the White House – Michael Nelson

Me !!!

and Marketing and Event Management specialist Claire Taylor

Claire Taylor

Over the next few weeks we will be identifying the 20 people that we want to work with in the U.K. and Ireland to help to build in the UK and beyond ( eg Europe and the Middle East ).

Some of these places have already been filled and we have already started working with these individuals.

Please make contact by twitter @cwindley, skype – chris.windley or mobile +447881 500002 asap.

Some work from home jobs are not quite what they seem – Shop.com and Motives UK

Posted by Chris on October 10th, 2013

In America, as everywhere else, people are looking for legitimate ways that they can work from home and earn a decent living but look out – the scammers are about !!

People will go to incredible lengths to manipulate real stories and turn them to their own advantage

Market America and Market United Kingdom ( which includes the Shop.com and Motives Beauty brands ) is a very substantial, fast growing, direct sales business.

Here’s a few facts:

Company Quick Facts:

Founded in 1992 Market America Worldwide is headquartered in Greensboro, North Carolina, USA
Over $5.3 billion generated in accumulated retail sales
Individuals have earned over $2.8 billion in commissions and retail profits
Hundreds of exclusive Market America branded products and services
Over 50 million additional products/services through affiliates and direct partners
Operates globally in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, Hong Kong, Taiwan and the United Kingdom

and with those facts you can imagine that it is pretty upsetting when real testimonials are doctered to support other, less legitimate businesses.

Take a look at this report HERE from TV Company NBC in Philadelphia, USA which talks about the way that this video

was taken and manipulated to promote another company.

So, it is very difficult to find truthful information about businesses that allow you to work from home.

The fact is that ALL businesses require hard work and dedication to make them successful. What you need to know is that the business model is real and can work.

In October and November 2013 the Founders of Market America , Loren and JR Ridinger and other senior management will be visiting the UK again giving you an opportunity to meet with them and discuss the Shop.com and Motives opportunity.

As I have pointed out in earlier blogs such as this one and this one we are particular focussed on helping people with the digital marketing aspects of the Market United Kingdom home based business.

We are also concentrating our efforts, for the time being, on the fashion and beauty aspects of the product line as there are many people to whom this is relevant – fashion and beauty blog and shop owners ( with or without a website ) health spas, makeup artists etc etc

Contact me by leaving a comment or Google me and connect with me on Twitter ( @cwindley ) , Facebook , Skype ( chris.windley ) or whatever communication method suits you.

Becoming a Motives Cosmetics Digital Partner in the UK

Posted by Chris on October 3rd, 2013

How can you integrate the Motives Cosmetics line into your Fashion or Beauty blog or business ??

Are you a Beauty Blogger ?? Are you a makeup artist ?? Do you have a Beauty or fashion related business or website ??

Extending the success of Motives in the USA to the UK we are working with selected Fashion and Beauty bloggers to show them how to leverage the power of the Motives and Shop.com Internet Portals and integrate these into their existing business models.

Let’s just discuss the opportunity that exists for the fashion and beauty blogger and their network of related contacts – for example, makeup artists, salon owners, health spa owners and fashion business owners.

Obviously bloggers have an Internet Presence ( web/blogsite and social media pages ) already. Their contacts may or may not have web or blogsites. It does not really matter whether they do or don’t. The Motives and Shop.com portals can be stand alone or integrated with existing web presences.

To get some ideas let’s look at some people already doing this ( this is just a random selection from Googling Motives Cosmetics ):

Here’s Lily & Vanessa Lewis from Australia. Did you see the ” Shop in MY store button ” ??? What a lovely site.

Here’s another site from someone in America. See the advert on the right hand side at the top ?? Takes you straight to this person’s Motives Portal.

This one from Emily Eddington of the USA is a Blogger site and perhaps more typical of the ones that we have seen in the UK so far. Emily has written a review for Lauren Page so you’re are actually being directed to her Motives site.

So, the way you use the Motives and Shop.com portals is flexible and non-exclusive. – which means that you can carry on doing independent reviews and you can also carry on recommending other products from other companies.

What is important to understand is that these ladies have ” monetised ” their sites. This basically means that you are giving people the opportunity to buy the things that you like and recommend.

SO MUCH effort goes into reviewing and writing about products. Why not give them the opportunity to buy some of them from YOU ??

In this video here we are going to hear from Makeup Artists, Coach/mentors TO Makeup Artists and Salon owners and particularly from Ethnic, darker skinned ladies ( African American and Latino ) who love the line created specifically for them by La La Anthony

Did you hear that phrase ” Trading Time for Money ” from Carlos ???? Your blogsite is on 24 Hours a day – people are looking at it from all around the world all the time. Why not have it so that, if they want to, people can buy from it all the time ?? Where will you be ?? Sleeping ?? On the beach ?? Shopping ??? When you get an email message saying that someone has bought one of your recommendations.

By the way – I know that most of the people that you are seeing here are in the U.S. ( Some of the web and blogsites I showed you earlier were, for example, in Australia ).

We are leading a Digital Marketing initiative into the U.K. but there are already people here that are doing great business as Shop.com and Motives partners and affiliates.

Here’s Kristina Thoedoris with Stooshe ‘s Alex Buggs:

Kristina is in London.

So, Let’s see what else you can do with Motives by going to this website >>>>> HERE <<<<<<<.

If you are a blogger or journalist then we have a PRESS KIT for you here. This has this Autumn and Winters lines in it.

So, I hope you have enjoyed this information and if you have please contact me:

My Shop.com Shopping Portal is >>>> HERE <<<<

My Motives Shopping Portal is >>>> HERE <<<<

So please browse around them and let me know what you think.
