hat exactly happens at a Look Good Feel Better workshop? Whether you choose to join us in-person or online, you’ll be warmly welcomed by a team of our professionally-trained volunteers. Along with a small group of women, you’ll learn tips and techniques for taking care of your skin and how to use makeup to manage changes to your skin, brows and lashes. And, you’ll receive a kit of beautiful products for home you can use for practice. We’ll also show you different types of wigs and scarf-tying techniques so you can choose the best options that feel right for you. At our breast care workshop, we’ll talk about the different options available for bras, forms and other garments for when you are going through treatment and post-surgery, plus how to care for sensitive skin. Beyond the practical information, the workshops are an opportunity to be with a group of women going through a similar experience, to share and be heard, to ask questions and most importantly, take time for yourself.
