Look Good, Feel Better

Look Good...Feel Better is a free community service program dedicated to helping women undergoing treatment for cancer. The purpose of the program is to help women manage the appearance related side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, thereby helping to restore their appearance and self image.

The Look Good...Feel Better program is available through the generous support of the Cosmetic, Toiletry and Haircare Industry. The Industry, represented by ACCORD, (Advocate for the Consumer, Cosmetic, Hygiene and Specialty Product Industry), supports the program with products, financial donations and volunteers.

Two hour Look Good...Feel Better workshops are offered at over 165 hospitals and cancer care centres nationally. Workshops are conducted by experienced and specially trained volunteer beauty professionals who provide advice on how to deal with changes in skin, hair, eyebrow and eyelash loss and general appearance related concerns. These workshops are completely free, relaxed and friendly with an emphasis on hands on learning. The workshops are available to any woman undergoing or about to undergo treatment for cancer.

There have been over 80,000 cancer patients helped by the program since 1990.
