i did volunteer work before I ever got a job...

knowing the Mary Kay business model...

this lady is probably one of their home consultants, and she can always use a pretty face to get make up applied to. The other hope is that when she sees the look and effects she may become a customer.
This is exactly what happened with my wife. She bailed out after a couple of visits. No one ever took pictures of her, they don't mean modeling in the catalog.

If it's the same sitation as offered to my wife, the lady just wants her to come over the her house and put make-up on to show to parties--like TubberWare parties. One of our friends, a prior model, suggests modeling only for enjoyment--but she doesn't mean to do it for free in any way, only that it wasn't the best path for her as a job. So if your friend thinks its fun, go for it. But this probably isn't the gig that is going to do anything for her career.
