My sister-in-law, Carissa, and I rarely wear make-up and don't really know how to put it on. So last night we went to the Bare Escentuals (you may have seen the infomercials) store at Southdale Mall and got makeovers! I forgot to bring my camera, so I don't have before and after shots of Carissa, but she looked great! Both of us just want to be able to have the option of getting more dressed-up if we're going on a date, or to an event like Dan & Kaylen's wedding in June!

These photos are a little dark because I used the webcam.

Here's my before:
