Give GG Makeovers

Bringing joy through beauty is what we do best! To keep our makeovers safe, hygienic, and beautiful for every senior, follow these essential rules and styling secrets from GG National.

The Golden Rules (Safety First!)

-Wash Up: Always wash or sanitize your hands immediately before and after every single makeover.

-No-Go Zones: Never apply eye makeup or style a senior’s hair. Stick to beautiful skin and lip transformations!

-Mask Mandates: Does your partner senior home still require masks? No problem! Pivot the fun and stick to giving flawless GG manicures instead.

Foundation Pro-Tips

-The Tinted Glow: Mix a little foundation with a dime-sized puddle of moisturizer on a cotton pad to create a custom, hydrating tinted moisturizer.

-Custom Color-Matching: If a shade doesn’t perfectly match your senior's skin tone, blend different foundation shades together. Add more moisturizer to make the coverage lighter and more sheer.

-Flawless Blending: Always apply foundation using a fresh makeup sponge. Blend evenly across the face, being careful to avoid the sensitive eye area.

Blush Basics

-Less is More: Lightly apply blush using a clean, disposable brush.

-The Perfect Smile: Ask the senior to smile, apply the blush directly to the "apples" of their cheeks, and gently blend the color out toward their temples.

Lipstick Precision

-Scoop It: Use a clean makeup spatula to carefully scrape off a small amount of lipstick. Never apply product directly from the tube!

-Paint the Smile: Pick up the product from your spatula using a lip brush.

-Blend Outward: Start right at the center of the senior’s lips and brush the color outward, smoothly filling in the gaps for a gorgeous finish.
