had to reschedule.

(1.5 hr)
Commentary:
After the first attempt to meet up and discuss
senior project, we rescheduled for today to
meet at Starbucks and go over everything. I
brought all my senior project paperwork as well
as an outline of what I wanted to do. Cindy
(facilitator) came prepared with Mary K
brochures and helpful ideas as to what my final
outcome should be. We decided that skin care
would be the area we worked in for this project.
Our plan is to get three volunteers and supply
them with three different types of facial
cleansing products. Each will be given the
responsibility of recording a photo of their
progress every week and I will take the before
and after final pictures. Then they will receive a
Mary Kay makeover to show their progress.

and to learn more about the makeup and
skin care products. After the meeting was
over I spoke with Cindy about coming to sit
in and observe her on "Glamour Night"
which is a monthly routine for Mary Kay
that allows women to get a makeover and
dress up and take pictures just for fun.

Commentary:
Cindy (facilitator) thought it would be good
for me to partake in "Glamour Night" just to
get a feel for what I would be saying to my
volunteers and she allowed me to bring
two friends along with me. At this event
she spent a little extra time going over
each step to giving a makeover so that I
could learn the process. After
going through with the whole night and
receiving make overs for both myself and
my friends, I sat down with Cindy to
discuss our next meeting and to ask any
questions I had.

me about how I should consider becoming
an actual Mary K consultant as part of my
process in this project just so I would be
properly equipped with everything I
needed, come time to educate the
volunteers on what they would be doing
and the products being used. I agreed to
becoming a consultant.

to becoming a consultant.
Commentary:
My mom and I searched for three ladies, all
of different ages, to be my volunteers for
this project. We found two women that
were more than happy to help out and,
because we were short another woman,
my mom decided to help me out and be
the third volunteer. We then called Cindy
(facilitator) and spoke to her about how to
order my first Mary Kay kit as a new
consultant. After ordering the kit we went
out and bought supplies to give to the
volunteers so that they were provided with
everything they would need.

volunteers (along with my mother, the third
volunteer) and discuss what they would be
doing for me and how to use each product
that was given to them. Each volunteer had
a different product so each instructions
were different. I then took a "before" shot
of each volunteer. We left the two women
with a journal to record daily what kind of
environment they were in and what foods
they might have eaten that day because all
this depends on what kind of skin you
have. We also left a camera so that they
could record weekly their progress. We left
this up to them because they live too far
away for us to drive there every week so
instead we decided to make monthly visits.

Commentary:
When we got there, I took another
progress photo of each volunteer and
downloaded all the pictures they had taken
weekly and put them on my computer so I
could get started on my presentation.

Commentary:
Because of their tight schedule with work
we had to rush the process of the
makeover so I was not able to take as
much time as I would have liked, but we
still got it done and in the end the
volunteers looked great. One problem we
ran into today was Caitlin (volunteer) had a
break out from the Mary Kay mask that she
used the nightbefore. Of course these
kinds of things are uncontrollable but we
still managed to make her look good!
