Following up on our post on The Pink Ribbon Place, I recently went to a workshop that took place there titled "Look Good Feel Better." If you missed that post, be sure to go back and check it out. They provide lots of resources for women with breast cancer.
In the workshop, participants were given a cosmetic bag full of makeup and beauty products. To our surprise, the bag not only included inexpensive drug store brands, but also expensive higher end brands. Estee Lauder for example.
An instructor graciously instructed how to apply the makeup step by step. She also impressed upon the participants the importance of and ways to avoid cross contamination by cleaning brushes, avoiding beauty blenders, and using a tissue to clean pencils.
One of the tips I found most helpful was her demonstration on how to map out eyebrows. The instructor also gave pointers on hats, scarves, and turbans, including different ways to style them. A large brim hat for example, to keep away damaging sun rays.

A t-shirt that can be used as a head wrap as another. The instructor demostrated how to do it and details were also in the book. No sewing needed, just a t-shirt that you don't need to keep.
Participants were also given a book with detailed information on what was covered in the workshop.
The Look Good Feel Better workshop seems such an important resource for women affected by the disease. Please help spread the word about this wonderful workshop and The Pink Ribbon Place.
