With Charter Day Ball just around the corner, we reached out to some local beauty consultants from Mary Kay to show us the ins and outs of creating the perfect makeup look. We’ll show you everything from foundation to the smokey eye to lip color in our how-to videos.

We worked with Mary Kay reps Stephanie and Shelbi who work in the Cincinnati area. If you are intersted in any products or skin care counseling, please contact Shelbi Smith at 937-658-1547 or visit her consultant page.
