I have sold both BeautiControl and Arbonne and have used MK. All three are good lines though I liked the Arbonne the best for skin care and for the color line I like the BeautiControl. MaryKay is just a heavier feeling makeup and just as expensive as the others. You really only need a cleanser and moisturizer, day and night for your skin care and that makes it alot less expensive. All the other stuff is nice but not necessary.
