    For me it is just the opposite, I never wore lipstick, just basic base and I rarely wore eye shawdow. The third time I had cancer I decided I was looking too pale and needed to perk myself up for me. I began wearing long lasting lipstick and eye shawdow, even mascara sometimes.....ohhhh what a dare devil I am! ;-) Well now I wear it regularly, I even put on my long wear lipstick before bed....looking better simply made me feel so much better and lifted my spirits, you are on to something!

    Hugs,

    I made a promise to myself
    I made a promise to myself that I would not go into the cancer center without makeup. I always wore it before cancer and wanted to keep that part of me. I only missed once when I was dehydrated and needed to get in there fast.

    There's a nonprofit organization called Look Good, Feel Better that comes into cancer centers to do makeup and wig makeovers. It doesn't cost anything to go.

    We need to do everything we can to keep our spirits up!

    I used to be into Mary Kay,
    I used to be into Mary Kay, never sold it, just became a distributor to get my makeup cheaper. I don't put makeup on every day but always use cleansers and moisturizers, toners, every day. I'm hoping I can keep it up while I'm going for treatments and I plan to have makeup on when I go for my surgery. What do the rest of you do when it comes to surgery/ makeup or not? Shortscake, you're such a pretty woman, you dont need anything.
