Makeup night

Once in a while, a girl just really needs to feel fresh, rejuvenated, relaxed and beautiful. If that's accomplished, then we feel ready to conquer the world! But, with the spunky young women we have, it was hard to do this without having a little bit of fun too.

We started with all-natural masks made from avacado, cucumber, and plain yogurt, with cucumber slices to go on our eyes. Turns out, plain yogurt is really good for your face: degerming and all of that. But, not the sissy stuff. It was full fat yogurt. Avacado is really great for providing moisture (so if your complexion is dry, use that) and cucumber is just a good refresher.

 Application of said masks was... a little bit... interesting...

And then, we got to relax. Sort of.

The darn cucumbers kept falling off!

We invited Christi Brodrick to come and teach us a little bit about make-up. She helped us out with what colors go with which skin tones and how to apply for the look you want. Sister Iverson used to sell make-up, so she brought her supply to share with us. :)

And now, it's time to apply what we've learned about make-up!

Jessica and Charlotte came a little late due to a play rehearsal, so that's why they're still in the fabulous green masks. :)


Everyone left before we could get an "after" shot, but here are beautiful Brittany and McKenzie, all finished up.

Thank you so much, Sister Brodrick, for coming to help us out with our make-up night! We couldn't have done it without you! No, seriously, we couldn't have. Your talents have been shared to help us learn more about being beautiful.
