Look Good...Feel Better: Helping Women Cope with Cancer Treatment
March 11, 2008
Written by: Lisa Powers
The panel included Seventeen Magazine publisher and cancer survivor Jayne Jamison, cosmetologist and volunteer Eivind Bjerke, hotel industry executive and cancer survivor Eli Martinez-Cedrez, and makeup artist and volunteer Rick DiCecca. They each shared their personal experiences as patients and volunteers with Look Good...Feel Better, a program started 20 years ago by cosmetic and personal care products companies to help women cope with appearance-related side effects of cancer treatment. The program began with the idea that an improved physical appearance can lead to increased self-esteem and help patients approach their disease and treatment with greater confidence.
Look Good...Feel Better is offered in 19 countries and has served more than 825,000 cancer patients since it began.
