Each child must also provide a warm-up suit or bathrobe, hair supplies, tissues, and make-up. Make-up—please see note below.

Make-up

Please bring only light, natural colors... NO RED LIPSTICK. NO MAKE-UP BASE. Light blush, natural eye shadow (no blue or green), and no false eyelashes. The costumes get stained so easily, that we are trying to keep the amount of make-up worn by the children to a minimum. Thanks for helping on this.
