Woman enjoys running at-home business
"When I go on vacation, my favorite part is the spa," Hasler said.
BeautiControl, which many remember for telling people what their "season's colors" were to look their best in makeup and clothes, is now focusing on people being able to enjoy a spa experience at home. Hasler leads spa parties in her home or in hosts' homes where guests are pampered and taught to relax. Guests experience heated neck wraps, dead sea salt scrub hand treatments, hand repair lotions, lip masks, foot treatment creams, warm spa booties that they get to take home as gifts, and therapeutic eye pads.
Hasler plays music, leading guests in visualization and relaxation techniques, including deep breathing. Then she gives head massages and teaches skin care techniques.
Each spa can consist of what the guests would like and can include detoxifying mud facials, green tea warming masks, chemical peels or information about makeup.
After learning how to create a spa experience, guests can duplicate it in their own homes.
Hasler went to a spa party about 18 months ago, fell in love with the skin care and spa products, and her teenage daughter loved the makeup, she said. Hasler initially became involved with the company so that she and her daughter could have discounts on the products. Sharing information about the products was easy, she said, and she soon found herself setting more and more goals for herself in the company.
"Selling BeautiControl is not something I thought I would ever want to do," Hasler said, "My family was in retail, and I know how hard that is."
