  • We have a winner!

    The votes are in and we have a winning tagline for the Mary Kay blog. Congratulations and thanks to each of you who contributed a tagline suggestion, and also to those who took the time to vote. The winning tagline is Reflections: The purpose and passion behind Mary Kay products and people This tagline was originally submitted by Kim Howe Beams as Reflections: Look in, reach out! Discover the purpose and passion behind Mary Kay products & people . When we went through the process of narrowing down all the submissions into the 13 finalists, we did some editing in order to make some of them shorter, but still maintain the essence of the thought. I'm extremely happy with where we ended up on the tagline, and I think it does a wonderful job of explaining to our blog readers what sort of content they will find here when they visit. I hope you like it. The tagline will actually begin appearing on the blog site sometime next week. Kudos to Kim for the winning slogan, and you're going...

    The Mary Kay women are really a creative bunch! We've had well over 500 suggestions for the Reflections blog tagline. We'll close down the contest and gather all the entries tomorrow morning at 9:00 AM Dallas time. Then we'll narrow it down and put several of the best back out there for you to vote on. The tagline that receives the most votes will be declared our winner, and the author will be the owner of a fabulous new Michael Kors designer handbag. I've noticed that many of you have left duplicate comments because you didn't see it post immediately. Comments made to this site are moderated, which means that I review them before they are posted to the site. I review the comments several times each day, but there are times when I eat, sleep, do my other Mary Kay work, and spend some time with my family. Also, for you "night owls", I'm an "early to bed, early to rise" person, so I rarely review comments after 9 PM, and often review them prior...

    All I can say is WOW! I wish you could all see how things are "buzzing" around here since yesterday morning. So many of our employees and executives are sharing their excitement about the new blog, and just take a look at the response we've received so far. Clearly, the time was right for us to make this connection. As far as the tagline contest, we've already received more than 150 fabulous entries. The plan is to keep it open through the weekend, and then we'll close the contest early next week. My team will take all the entries, narrow them down to a handful, and post them for you to vote on. In the meantime, keep those great ideas coming. In case you're curious about the PRIZE, how does a Michael Kors designer handbag sound? Is there such a thing as too many purses?
