Who’s getting friendly with “Flat Nancy”? It’s Beauty & Skincare Innovator, Ole Henrickson’s! But is that the real Ole?

In the beauty office at Q stands a cardboard cutout of a friendly looking man. However, every time I walk by it, it startles me. Ok, maybe a little more than startle. I actually go into a karate pose just in case I need to protect myself (not that I know anything about karate, it just makes me feel powerful). A few seconds later, of course, I realize it’s just a picture of guy. Crazy part is no matter how many times I walk by him, he still causes me to flinch! Honestly, I had no idea who this guy was or why there was a cutout of him. I found out a few weeks later.

About two months ago, I got a call from the beauty buyers asking if I would like to meet Ole Henrickson since I was scheduled to do a one hour beauty show with him on May 27th at 6 am ET. Of course, I agreed. The minute I saw the real Ole, I just about died! It was so funny to see the man who’s been “sneaking up” on me for weeks. I told Ole about what his cutout was doing to me & we laughed & laughed. Of course, it gave Ole and I an immediate connection, and we started gabbing.

It was so nice to have such concentrated time with this man. I discovered that not only does Ole have an incredible sense of humor, but he has a brightness that emanates from within. I could feel his desire to help every woman & man achieve the most beautiful skin possible was real. During our time together, Ole shared how he grew up Denmark & how he spent much of the first part of his career on the road. Unfortunately for him (but fortunately for us), he developed some serious skin conditions. This is what drove him to the kitchen, yes, the kitchen, where he concocted his first skin care products. More than 35 years later Ole is still creating skincare products for his thriving Spa in LA that has a roster complete with celebs. Pretty impressive! But what’s even more impressive is his skin! Wait until you see it & hear how old he is!!

About a week after our meeting, two boxes (one big, one small) arrived at my doorstep. It was from Ole & his team in LA. One contained samples of his products (which I’ve been using since they arrived) & the big one had “Flat Ole”!!!! What a hoot! I immediately put him in our foyer. Up until yesterday, Ole has been greeting (& spooking) my friends & family (including me). Since the big show is this Sunday, I had to pack Ole up & bring him to the Q. On my way there, I decided that our cutouts should meet. So…“Flat Ole, meet Flat Nancy”!

Come meet the real Ole this Sunday at 6 am. The entire show is Customer Top Rated with the exception of the brand new Eye Roller Gel, which is sure to be a hit! During the show, I’ll share my experience with each of the products. But, I’d rather hear from you! Which of Ole’s products are you using, and what results are you seeing?
