Lisa Before Lisa's Makeover Pictures
DCI
Lisa
Thirty-six-year-old Lisa is a mother of two and a human rights lawyer. With her time dedicated to her family and her job, her appearance is the last thing on Lisa's mind. Her friends say she wears her 10-year-old daughter's clothes - sweat pants and T-shirts - and she has one look when she goes to work - white shirt and black pants.
Stacy and Clinton want to show Lisa that dressing in grown-up clothes doesn't mean she'll spend more time getting dressed in the morning. But it does mean she will look put together and more professional. Lisa says her feet don't go into ladylike shoes with heels - and she never wears skirts or dresses. Stacy and Clinton need to put forward some powerful arguments to change this lawyer's mind. Lisa's hair is normally dragged off her bare face into a ponytail; Nick Arrojo must persuade Lisa that letting her natural curls take hold is easy to manage and looks good. Makeup artist Carmindy develops a fast face for busy Lisa to do every morning.
