Should I avoid using an exfoliator?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You could try a gel exfoliator, which is gentle, won\u2019t irritate your skin and won\u2019t leave it dry afterwards. Apply it using upwards circular motions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What\u2019s the best way to apply makeup to sensitive skin?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018Beauty blenders\u2019 are little sponges that come in a range of sizes \u2013 they expand when you soak them in water. They\u2019re a very gentle way to apply makeup. You can use a small one for eye shadow, a medium one for your cheeks and a large one for your foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>I\u2019m having hot flushes. How can I keep my makeup in place?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Est\u00e9e Lauder has an amazing range of products, including an eyeshadow paint that won\u2019t move if you\u2019re sweating. They also sell a Lip and Cheek MultiStick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>I want to recreate my eyebrows, which are thinning because of chemotherapy, but I\u2019m struggling to find products that match my natural colour.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My top tip when trying to find an eyebrow product in the right colour is to go to a store and speak to an expert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They will be able to find the correct colour for you. The best way to recreate natural-looking eyebrows is to use a template.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Since treatment, my nails have thinned \u2013 and some have split. What can I do?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Massaging them with olive oil will help. In the evening, perhaps while you\u2019re sitting watching TV, take a small pot of olive oil and massage it into the cuticles. Be gentle, but do apply a little bit of pressure. Sally Hansen has an amazing nail hardener that contains vitamins. Coat your nails with this after massaging them and before applying nail varnish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What\u2019s the best way to remove makeup around my eyes?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your eyelashes have thinned, you need to be extra gentle when removing makeup like eyeliner or mascara. You can use a cotton bud dipped in olive oil. When removing makeup, roll the tip around rather than dragging it across the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Can I wear false eyelashes?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, you can wear false lashes. If possible, it\u2019s a good idea to try them out before your eyelashes start to go, so that you get used to using them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rftcjapan.org\/wpdata\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/PiNK-Summer2019-Banner03.001.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Makeup artist Debbie Storey gives beauty tips and answers some common questions about makeup after breast cancer treatment.
