On Wednesday, January 16, Univision’s Lourdes Stephen will host Spanish-language “Virtual Workshop” for Look Good Feel Better. LGFB is a program dedicated to boosting cancer patients’ self-esteem and confidence through lessons on how to manage the appearance-related side effects of cancer treatment.
Ms. Stephen will be joined by beauty experts Lilly Rivera, makeup artist, and Petra Belen, hair stylist and Louanne Roark, Look Good Feel Better Executive Director, who will offer instruction, tips and advice – tailored to Latina women - for dealing with hair loss, changes in skin, complexion and nails during your cancer treatment, taken straight from the live LGFB community based group workshop program. You can go to the site and register for this virtual seminar.
LGFB also offers free workshops and educational resources that address skin changes and concerns, and offers lessons on cosmetics, wigs, turbans, nail care, and accessories, and wardrobe styling. Workshops are facilitated by 14,000 volunteer beauty professionals in more than 3,000 locations nationwide.
During the past 23 years, the program has served more than 800,000 people with cancer in the U.S. and more than 1.2 million people with cancer around the world. The program is made possible in the U.S. through a collaboration of the Personal Care Products Council Foundation, the American Cancer Society, and the Professional Beauty Association.

I think the Look Good Feel Better program is wonderful. I had not heard of it but it will be an organization that I will now follow. You never know when you will need the support that it offers.
I remember when my friend, Susan, lost her hair from her chemo treatments and it was tough on her. But she dealt with it and never lost her spirit or her beauty. It is nice to know that there is someone out there helping women regain their self-esteem and confidence.
So remember, go register for the virtual seminar that will be held on January 16. Or, go to the site and learn how it can help you or someone you know.
I also have a wonderful giveaway courtesy of LGFB. I have a beautiful limited edition LGFB Oscar De La Renta scarf for one very lucky reader. This is so lovely! To win, just enter on the Rafflecopter widget below.
