YOU CAN HELP: Donation drive for makeup bags/samples

Got makeup bags or samples you don’t need? Stephanie Endres would be happy to get them:

My nonprofit Stephanie’s Lifeline HOPE is currently collecting makeup samples and makeup bags for an event we will be holding in which we are filling the makeup bags with makeup to distribute to women’s homeless and domestic-violece shelters.

We are in search of more makeup bags and more samples at this this time … We will be collecting items until October 27.

In order to donate, drop off donations at 3830 22nd Ave SW in West Seattle (Pigeon Point), or we can arrange a pick up time. Our phone number is 253-237-3056 and our email Stephanieslifeline@gmail.com.

We first mentioned Stephanie’s work four years ago.

    Stephanie:  This may or may not be helpful but I volunteered at the White Center Food bank once upon a time and there were tons and tons of IPSY bag envelopes waiting to be opened (I had no idea at the time what they were until I subscribed myself a year or so later and recognized the packaging).  Apparently they were unclaimed at the Post office or refused or I don’t know what so they went to the food bank.  Maybe they still have a few piles?

      Wow I never knew that. I’m sure they probably gave them out but thank you for the info. That’s good to know.

    Can you use small soaps and shampoos?

    • Stephanie Endres October 15, 2019 (1:38 pm)

      Yes I can use small soaps and shampoos along with skincare and deodorant preferably travel or sample size.

    I know you explicitly state you’re looking for makeup samples, but I thought I’d still ask… will you take skincare or hygiene (like deodorant) items as well?  How about full size products?  Also, what are the best days & times to drop off any donations?

  • Heather October 14, 2019 (11:35 am)

     … and how about hair care & body care products?

      Yes I can use small soaps and shampoos along with skincare items and deodorant preferably travel or sample size. Ipsy bags are perfect!
