Cosmetics
Many people don't realize that hair loss as a result of cancer treatments means the loss of ALL of your hair. Yep, your nose hair, arm hair, leg hair, pit hair.....all will be gone. This includes eyelashes and eyebrows. Moxie lash offers false eyelashes that are either magnetic or have nano-grip technology. They do not require glue and are easy to put on and take off.
Our founder tried lots of options for eyebrows and found this Sephora waterproof brow pencil to be her favorite. Wearing a headcover can be hot, and hormones can be wild, so perspiration happens. This can cause drawn-on brows to run or smudge. Since this pencil is waterproof, it stays in place. This brow pencil is great for creating shape and mimicking the look of actual brow hair. It is available in a range of natural-looking colors. A spoolie brush is also included so you can blend the product and make them look more natural.
Founded by Kaspars Iglitis, Prime Prometics is a cosmetic line that was originally developed for chemo patients and now markets its products to women over 50. Kaspars tells her story of being the daughter of an oncologist, and when her aunt had cancer, she was saddened by her aunt's fears about feeling like a woman again after experiencing hair loss dude to chemo. Her father explained to her that most women with cervical or breast cancer not only say goodbye to anatomical features that enchance femininity, but they also lose their hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes--often for life. The make-up that many chemo patients are forced to hide behind kills weakened hair follicles’ ability to regrow. The chemicals wreak havoc on sensitive skin. Kaspars felt that women warriors deserve better! Not only are Prime Prometics a great solution (our founder LOVES their mascara), they are a company that gives a portion of their profits to organizations that benefit cancer patients.
