During this Halloween season what kind of mask are you wearing?  Are you scary? Tough?  Inspirational? Supportive? Cautious?  We all put on different kinds of masks and sometimes they differ from day to day.  The masks you wear can give insight into your personality style and/or someone else’s style. 

The personality test I enjoy is called the DISC test.  In this test you pick a word in 28 different boxes that most exemplifies you and least exemplifies you.  The corresponding answer sheet catalogues these answers and accurately predicts the type of personality people are.  Knowing this not only helps you be able to deal with others by knowing their different traits, but also knowing what your blend is and what mask you are most comfortable behind.  Everyone is a blend of all categories, some stronger than others.  A simplified way of looking at these are relating it to a type of animal/fish;

• D - Doberman – Tough, like big challenges, bark as bad as bite.
• I – Fluffy Puppy – Content to have fun; likes recognition and praise.
• S – Cat – Doesn’t like conflict; finds spots that are most comfortable and retreats there.
• C – Tropical fish – Checks everything out thoroughly, rocks, both sides of tank; ceramic figures. Curious by nature, doesn’t like sudden change.

 You can get more of this by going to DISC.

 Speaking of Masks, a facial mask is a great way to help fight blemishes, soften your skin or can even be used as a relaxer. A good skin care mask should be used once a week depending on what your skin care specialist suggests. Your face may be dry and therefore needs a moisturizing mask. Your face may be breaking out and needs a facial mask that will clear your blemishes. Maybe your face needs tightening, a mask can be good for that as well. Whatever the need, quality skin care products are needed on a daily basis and masks should be worn to help keep your face in check. If the mask you are wearing everyday is in need of  replenishment or if your skin needs to glow;  MaryKay offers masks for every skin type.  This Halloween, make sure your mask is right for you.
