The Look Good Feel Better Program
This two-hour workshop is an enhanced-care service for women. (Men can participate in the at-home program.) The workshop features step-by-step sessions led by cosmetology professionals using products donated by the cosmetic industry. Included are skin care and makeup lessons, nail care and advice on how to deal with hair loss using wigs, scarves, hats, hairpieces and other accessories.
The program was founded in 1989 by Personal Care Products, a charitable organization supported by the cosmetic industry, in cooperation with the American Cancer Society (ACS) and the Professional Beauty Association (PBA). Look Good Feel Better is free, non-medical, and salon- and product-neutral. Volunteers and program participants do not promote cosmetic products or manufacturers. All cosmetics used in the group program have been donated, and volunteers complete a certification class to become a Look Good Feel Better volunteer.
