Look Good Feel Better and Youthphoria
Youthphoria has proudly supported Look Good, Feel Better over the years, donating money to their programs. This is a charity our founder, Shirley, volunteered for personally, and we truly believe in the power of giving women their confidence back when faced with medical challenges to improve their mental and physical well-being.
Look Good Feel Better is a free national community service program, run by the Cancer Patients Foundation, dedicated to teaching cancer patients how to manage the appearance-related side-effects caused by treatment for any type of cancer. This program helps patients face their cancer, with confidence.
Currently, 1 in 2 Australians will be diagnosed with cancer before the age of 85 and that affects the lives of so many people around us. We cant help everyone, but everyone can help someone. If you or someone you love is going through treatment, we warmly recommend the program: workshops are free, and you can find one by searching for Look Good Feel Better Australia.
Why this cause matters to us
Over the years, many of our customers have come to us during or after cancer treatment. Losing your eyelashes and brows is one of the side-effects people talk about least, yet it changes the face you see in the mirror every morning. Programs like Look Good Feel Better give people practical skills, and a room full of others who understand.
Lashes during and after treatment
When natural lashes thin or fall out, magnetic lashes and Crystal Clear band lashes can still be worn, because they hold to a liner on the eyelid rather than to your natural lashes. Our Reclaim Confidence collection of lashes for chemo and alopecia brings together the styles and kits our customers choose most often at this time, from barely-there clear bands to soft, natural magnetic lashes.
Not sure where to start? Our complete guide to false eyelashes for chemo and cancer patients explains which lashes suit sparse or absent lashes and how to wear them comfortably. You are also welcome to email us two photos for free, personal advice through our lash consultation.
How you can help
Look Good Feel Better relies on donations and volunteers to keep its workshops free. If you would like to support the program, you can donate or volunteer through Look Good Feel Better Australia.
