BEAUTY PARLOR TIME!

Program Implementation

PROGRAM DETAILS This program was specifically designed

for high school aged girls. It focused on both skin care and make-

up tips. All the participants were former 3rd

grade students of mine. My Mary Kay Consultant, Renee

Simpson, was the guest speaker. The program was implemented in my

home due to lack of possible library locations.

IF THERE IS FOOD, THEY WILL COME!To start out, I provided

snacks for the participants. This was a great ice-breaker

and time for the students and myself to do some

catching up.

PRODUCT DISPLAY

As the girls browsed the snacks, they also got to

handle the skin care products as well as this

month’s Mary Kay mailer.

GIRLS LOVE TO SOCIALIZE

The participants were able to get all their giggling out

during the pre program snack time. They were now ready to listen to our guest

speaker, Renee Simpson.

CARPET TIMEMs. Renne Simspon, my

personal Mary Kay Consultant, started out talking to the girls about what color palate they

would use when deciding about what kind of skin care would be best for them and

what colors would work best.

WHAT IS HOT AND WHAT IT

NOTMs. Simpson went though a flyer with the girls on some new and upcoming trends in skin care and make-up. They

were able to give her feedback about what products

they might use and why.

PLAY TIMEAfter the girls were taught the correct way to wash

their face and tips on daily skin care, they were able to start picking out colors that

matched their skin tone. Both Ms. Simpson and

myself aided the ones that needed guidance.

KEEP IT SIMPLE

Ms. Simpson talked to the girls about keeping their

daily make-up routine simple. Just foundation, eye color, and lip shimmer is all they need to perk up their

facial features.

THERE IS A FIRST TIME

FOR EVERYTHINGAll the participants had never put on mascara before. They were very

interested in all the tips Ms. Simpson gave them on eye

make-up application.

SO MANY COLORS, SO LITTLE TIME

The girls were able to pick their top 3 favorite lip colors, then try them with samples that Ms. Simpson brought. They all picked the same

muted colors.

PROMOTING LITERATURE

I was able to go to the Springdale Public Library and

pick out some non-fiction beauty books that the participants might be

interested in. I book talked each one, with additional comments made by Ms.

Simpson.

GIVE AWAYSWith Ms. Simpsons help, I was able to create goodie bags for

each participant. Each bag had eye and lip color palates

as well as sample eye shadow, mascara, and shimmering lip

balm. The girls were very excited about the bags!
