I always felt short changed when it came to learning things about make-up, clothes and girl stuff in general. I blamed it on my only older sister who wouldn't have anything to do with me. I've taken a hard look at that lately and realized I was a tom boy as a child and not interested in learning such things.

I have finally learned these things and am so proud of my accomplishment. It has done wonders for my self esteem. After becoming an Avon Representative, I took the required courses to become a Beauty Advisor. I learned so much and am applying what I've learned to making myself look better but also feel a lot better about myself.

I'm amazed at how much difference it has made to my self esteem to learn these things and to be going to the District Sales Meetings and hanging out with other women. I didn't have a lot of friends during my school days but I'm sure making them now with other representatives and my customers. It's feels great and I wanted to share my learning experience with the rest of you.
