However, I couldn’t help myself but to make this post today because prior to Christina’s post, I had never heard of any Mary Kay rep.’s approaching people in supermarket’s and asking them to be a Face Model. In fact, one of Christina’s readers, a former MK rep., posted the entire script in the comments section.

So you can imagine the good laugh I had for myself when I finally got to witness this “event” first hand last week.

As I walked into the supermarket there were two women whispering to each other with their eyes dotting all around the produce section. They appeared to be discussing some big secret while eyeing up who was in the general vacinity. It appeared odd to me, until I saw that they were all dolled up looking very professionally dressed. People who live in my area would see that they stood out like a sore thumb because no one here dresses to the hilt to go grocery shopping. Besides the fact that these ladies were simply carrying a grocery basket, but not really shopping (more eyeing the aisles).

So as I shopped I watched them continue to walk up and down the aisles and whisper to each other. They looked like predators on the hunt for their prey. As I began to turn down the laundry aisle, I saw they had come in for the kill. They cornered a mom shopping with her newborn. One of the women was talking to the baby and saying just how cute she was, while the other was…tilting her head, putting her hand over her heart and biting her lower lip while talking to the unsuspecting mom. And then that is when I heard it…..

“You would make a great Face Model….”

For the love of God, I busted out laughing. I certainly didn’t mean to laugh so loud, but after being engaged in the saga going on in the comments section of Christina’s post, I couldn’t help it. The women stopped talking and gave me a quick glance looking slightly annoyed. I shook my head giggling and walked away.
