More Fun than a Ball of yarn! Able to Leap Tall Buildings in a Single Leap. Not a Bird or a plane, but a Tabby Chic (tm) Woman!

SHEBOYGAN, WI -- Women literally have nine lives -- financial planner, care taker, educator, dietician, maid, counselor -- and that is all before they leave the house and become taxi services, employees, and community members. In the midst of all these roles, how do they make time to take care of themselves?

As Sarah Ban Breathnach, author of Simple Abundance & Something More, writes, "There are so many insidious ways that we betray ourselves. Self-sacrifice is one of the more popular ones for women because it's condoned by society."

Many women have sacrificed time for themselves, dismissing time spent on pampering themselves as either frivolous or selfish. This is especially true of mothers. "My mother taught me that motherhood means self-sacrifice" said Edel Jarboe, founder of SelfHelpForHer.com, an online self-help magazine. "But now that I am older, I question this lesson. Maybe if she had taken more time for herself, she wouldn't have been so tired all the time. Maybe I wouldn't be so worried about her health now." Often, mothers are so concerned with their responsibilities to their children that they loose their own sense of self.

The current proliferation of self-help books, magazines, talk shows, seminars and websites, mostly consumed by women, indicates that there is a new awareness to take care or ourselves. Women know that something is ‘missing'... The key is to make themselves a priority. The simple act of returning to private beauty time or a simple, yet effective skin care regime can be a great way to begin making yourself a priority. Think of it as daily spa time that rejuvenates your body and soul. And it has its ‘responsible' side too.

Taking care of one's appearance is not just vanity, it is the physical manifestation of self-worth. A pleasant appearance presents to others your abilities to care for and manage yourself. It demonstrates self-respect and communicates to others that you expect to be treated with respect. To employers, your appearance literally becomes your ‘living business card!' For mothers, setting time aside for yourself also teaches family members to treat you and your private time with respect, as well as showing your children that it is ok for them to prioritize time for themselves too.

"Ask a working mom what she misses most, and she will reply ‘my youth!' Dig a little deeper, and you will find her describing getting ready for a date. Not describing the date itself -- but the time preparing for it!' says Deanna Ferber, President of GlamKitty, LLC, a cosmetic company that focuses on bringing glamour back into the lives of busy women. "Women delight in the acts of private beauty time. They glow as much from the joy of time spent on themselves as from the products they use!"

GlamKitty, LLC offers Tabby Chic (tm), "the culmination of beauty and function in your form", to busy women. The company receives many comments from women who had been missing their own personal beauty time. Women like Mary Elizabeth (Detroit, MI) who write "Thank you all for helping this busy mother of 2 busy boys find the time to 'be a girl' again!" And Paula G. (Sheboygan, WI) "...after just a few days some girls at work asked if I had been getting more sleep!"

When a woman makes herself and her appearance a priority, she feels and looks more lively and confident. Beauty time is not such a frivolous or selfish act after all.

"Can confidence really be such a bad thing if some days it is the only resource we have to complete all that we have to do?" added Ferber.
