restore dignity, hope, and self-esteem to cancer patients and other people
with chronic illness at every step in their journey. Our Angels provide
gender-neutral beauty, skin care, and aromatherapy services in
hospitals.
“Being a Lipstick Angel has been (by far) the most rewarding thing I have
ever done in my life. I’m grateful every day for the beautiful Angels
and patients that I’ve connected with through this incredible program.”
-E. Stollman

* Have at least 1 year professional experience as a professional makeup
artist and/or esthetician license
