British 10K London Run 2013 · 14 July 2013 ·

Look Good Feel Better help people with the physical effects of cancer treatment. We run free workshops across the UK, led by expert volunteers. Every workshop offers an invaluable opportunity to talk to others in a similar situation, whilst helping support people with their changing appearance.

Story

Look Good Feel Better is a charity that is very close to the hearts of those who work here at Revlon.

We recently raised over £7000 for the charity through a sample sale at our Head Office and are hungry to raise more. We have assembled an elite team of 12 'athletes' to run the British 10k in London on July the 14th to raise money for this charity that does unbelievable work for women with cancer.

Even in this difficult economic climate anything that you can donate will be greatly appreciated and will motivate us to drag ourselves around the streets of London.

Please see below for a link to the LGFB website and some info about the fantastic work that they do.

"Who we are

Gift BagLook Good…Feel Better was set up by the Cosmetic Toiletry and Perfumery Association (CTPA) and gained charitable status in 1993. Today, the Programme has the support of over 40 leading companies and brands in the Beauty Industry.

Look Good…Feel Better helps women cancer patients in the most practical and positive way.

Finding out you have cancer in any form can be daunting and life-changing, and the added stress of the appearance related side effects of treatment can be demoralising and very hard to cope with. This can have serious consequences on self-esteem and confidence at a time when a positive attitude is very important.

What we do

We hold free skincare and make-up workshops to help combat the visible side effects of cancer treatment and, in turn, boost confidence and wellbeing.

The sessions are run weekly, fortnightly or monthly for up to 12 people. They are held in over 59 locations throughout the UK, in hospitals and cancer care centres. The Look Good Feel Better Programme is now available in 21 countries worldwide.

At the beginning of each workshop, patients are given a gift bag filled with 17 different products donated by major companies throughout the Beauty Industry. Three volunteer beauty consultants take everyone through a specially designed 12-step skincare and make-up regime. At the end of two hours of learning, fun and laughter ladies leave feeling relaxed and full of renewed confidence in their appearance. They are then free to enjoy the product gift bag or 'cosmetic tool kit' at home.

Many women tell us that their LGFB workshop helped them regain a sense of control and normality at a time when diagnosis and treatment can make everything feel overwhelming."
