People will be offered face make-up and a beauty consultation on Saturday,May25, at an Oxford fundraising event for a cancer charity.

Staff at Allders, in the Westgate Centre, will be joined by up to 20 beauticians from leading companies for a Mega Make-up Marathon in aid of Look Good, Feel Better -- a charity that gives makeovers to cancer patients.

Perfumery department manager Wendy Molyneux said shoppers would be able to have their faces made up by professionals.

She added: "We hope the day will raise at least £1,600."
