I wore RIDICULOUS wigs!  Our little video has been submitted to Dr. Phil to help bring awareness to our plight.

We're at almost 700 views!

I hope it helps someone to find a bit of humor in all our pain.  I'm here for you...PM me at anytime if I can be of ANY help whatsoever.

    Hi, just seen your video very moving. Am I right did you get skin Cancer from rads? Also do you have any tips on how to look good again. I have just finished chemo and have sunken eyes, no eyebrows or eyelashes and look terrible. I know it takes time but I just want to look half good.



    Cheers Alison

    I, too...lost eyebrows, eyelashes, hair, sunken eyes......the whole thing.

    I penciled in my eyebrows with a light pencil, wore lipstick and pub a little blush on my cheeks.  I used very light foundation as concealer.

    I kinda created "a look"...rather than trying to look like I didn't have cancer.  Does that make sense?  I lost ALL eyelashes, so I just left that alone, rather than trying fake ones.

     There is also a sunless tan airbrush spray that I like by "Sun Labratories"..it comes in dark and very dark, doesn't look orange and is really very complimentary to almost every skin tone.

    Hope that helps...

    love
