This can be a little painting night, face painting session, a candle making night, a fundraiser for the community, a bake sale or even a simple get together for an exercise activity. Remember to always link your passion for beauty and lashes at each event

Example:

Paint night: Have all client paint a creative lash image. Have paints for them and a host that knowns the basic principals to paint. So that the attendees are both learning how to paint and learning about your lash business.
