Vemma® Bod•e Thirst transforms water into a flavourful, healthy hydration beverage. It is an ideal solution to help you increase your water intake.
Activated with 475 mL or more of cold, purified water, this non-carbonated 3-oz concentrate helps hydrate your body’s 88.75 trillion cells for optimal performance before, during and after exercise by replenishing electrolytes and protein building amino acids lost from physical activity.

Additionally, Bod•e Thirst is an ideal solution to support success on the Bod•e Transformation Plan.

Origami Celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month With Bobbi Brown
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Each year, Americans celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month from Sept. 15 to Oct. 15. The month-long event allows both Hispanics (and non-Hispanics) to focus on their history, culture and contribution as American citizens whether their ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central or South America.
America, the great melting pot, has a rich history of many cultures. While some groups may abandon Old World customs and traditions after several generations, Hispanic culture is still very vibrant and influential. In addition to remembering and honoring all the historical, political and cultural contributions made to the U.S., Hispanic Heritage Month is also about celebrating yourself and the beauty of Latina women in particular.
I had the honor of attending a master makeup class at the Bobbi Brown offices in New York, taught byCassandra Garcia, who serves as Bobbi Brown’s editorial makeup artist. Women of all backgrounds were taught Garcia’s simple 10-step application plan, which she clarified should only serve to enhance your natural beauty instead of putting on a different face. The class turned into a true learning experience for me when Garcia asked if I could be the model for the demonstration.
Lacking any actual skills in terms of makeup application, I jumped at the opportunity and

There seems to be a line drawn in the direct-selling industry between the two types of companies out there; those that focus on customers and products and those that focus on the distributors and their income.
With the recent pressure on the DSA to make serious progressive changes and the Ackman/Herbalife battle, it comes as no surprise that more and more Americans are looking at the home party company model — companies that have stood the test of time like; Avon, Mary Kay, Tupperware, and Pampered Chef.
But what is happening in the home party company that is relatively unknown to veterans of direct-selling industry is the unique twists these companies are taking to propel them forward into the future. Is it possible that these very companies that are flying under the noses of veterans will be the ones that are standing at the forefront in just a few short years? Only time will tell. One thing that can’t be argued; these home party companies aren’t dealing with the slue of issues many of the income focused companies are, mainly being the FTC’s pyramid scheme investigations.
