Murad’s Halloween Bash

Halloween is one of my most favorite holidays of the year. Don’t get me wrong. There’s nothing like celebrating our nation’s birth with a good old fashion barbeque on Independence Day. And who doesn’t like to ring in the New Year while watching the ball drop in Times Square? But there’s just something about Halloween that thrills me like no other holiday does. Maybe it’s the decorations, the orange and blacks, the cats and bats and pumpkins. Maybe it’s the candy and how I feel like a kid again. But I think we all know what it is……the costumes. For one day a year we can be someone else, live out a fantasy and just have fun with our newly created character.

To celebrate this fun-filled holiday, each year Murad throws a Halloween Bash complete with costume contest. It’s a pretty big occasion. All employees turn out for lunch, treats, laughter and of course, to take a gander at the costumes everyone’s wearing.

This year, however, was special. Our very own IT wiz Belsien Thomas went all out and performed for his fellow coworkers a scene right out of Michael Jackson’s Thriller video. As he busted a move down the aisle, everyone was clapping and cheering him on. He took first prize of course. But a congratulations is in order for the runners up: Andrea Koons, a cute cupcake, Dina Salcido, a lovely peacock, and Lola Russek and Miko, in coordinating costumes.

Stayed tuned for a special screening of Belsien’s performance on Facebook. If you’re not already a Murad Facebook fan, become one here. And while you’re there, check out more pictures from Murad’s Halloween Bash!

WOW of the Week

We receive numerous testimonials daily from happy Murad customers which we call WOWs. Check back soon for a new WOW of the week.

I have used your vitamins regulary even on a empty stomach and they are great. No side effects at all. Very honestly my skin has really transformed. My pores are fianlly under control much smaller appearance. It is moist all day and in the morning very dewy. It is clearing up all the congestion. I feel very secure about my skin . So it is 2 weeks today and I am thrilled beyond the words I have mentioned. Thank you very much. I guess sometimes these little events can change someones whole perspective. You did me a huge service with your knowledge.

Happy (un)Birthday


I think the Mad Hatter was really on to something with the whole ‘un-birthday thing’—why should celebrating you be restricted to just ONE day a year? Germany gets it, they’ve dedicated no less than one month to celebrating their favorite beverage and look how well that caught on—people are chicken dancing their way across the globe as we speak. And Disney, the inventors of the original un-birthday, celebrated their 50th anniversary for no less than 2 and a half years.

When I was little, I followed this mantra religiously until I realized that celebrating everyday like a real birthday can become a logistical nightmare—hello. . .you aren’t the only one privy to having an un-birthday or two and purchasing gifts can put a major strain on a five-year-old budget when your income is dependent on how many teeth you happen to have lost that month. So, I focused my efforts on that one special day and dedicated myself to planning the coolest birthday parties around—Murder Mystery party (you’ll never guess who dunnit), pajama party (I heart feet pajamas!) and a Double Dare party so good my friends were washing slime out of their hair for weeks.

As my next un-un-birthday rapidly approaches (how’s that for a double negative?) I’ve been thinking a lot about what it means to grown up (although I still refuse to consider myself a ‘grown up’ even at the ripe old age of 27). I look back on how much things have changed—and how they haven’t. While I’m still a sucker for a good theme party and pointy hats, it’s easy to get caught up in the rush of the day to day and forget to approach each day as a day worthy of celebration—a day worthy of eating cake. Luckily I survived the quarter life crisis that snuck up on me last year in the form of the undying urgency to repaint my bathroom no less than three times just because I needed a change—and came to the realization that you just can’t sweat the small stuff. Groundbreaking, I know.

I am lucky to say that I’ve spent most of my ‘grown up’ years working for a company who operates under this exact premise—‘Why have a bad day when you can have a good day?’—which proves to be one of the reasons we continue to grow and emerge from our teen years unscathed. 2009 marks the year of our 20th anniversary, and in honor of this momentous occasion, we are going old school and partying like its 1989—sans aqua-net hair spray and New Kids on the Block (reunion tour not withstanding)—with events and promotions galore. Giving us many reasons to celebrate—and eat cake.
