Not as common as women but men do get breast cancer.  Unfortunately, if you have the material, there might be a chance you'll get it.

Regardless of what gender you are, once done, you must learn how to cope.  There's a silver-lining to dealing with hormonal-based cancer, you got the excuse to pamper oneself to make things easier.  Plus, people will be really nice to you.

While dealing with irritated skin from the medications and treatments, you are welcomed to splurge and experiment with some top-of-the-line skincare that also gets Hollywood celebrities red carpet ready.

Dealing and treating ultra-sensitive cancer-treatment skin forces skincare manufacturers to up their game in delivering soothing but effective skincare that tackle the problems immediately to make daily living easier.

In other words, if it reliefs weary treatment skin, imagine what they'll do for normal everyday skin.

Hodgkin’s disease survivor and cancer care-giver, Britta Aragon, knew there must be a better way and better products to tackle chronic dryness and eczema one gets from treatments.

As a former makeup artist and skincare therapist, Britta took matters into her own hands and form CV Skinlabs, a line of practical and resourceful skin care products that most skincare manufacturers never thought of yet most cancer patients dream of, like...

CV Skinlabs' Calming Moisture for Face, Neck and Scalp, an all-over antioxidant-rich moisturizer that a no-fuss yet sensitive skinned man or woman can use in a jiffy.

  

Rescue + Relief Spray is a simple but rich spritz of a spray that you can spritz on anywhere on the body where it's itching, burning, irritated and inflamed

Restorative Skin Balm is a soothing balm and gloss for the lips while it calms severely dry and chapped skin from eczema, scars, lips and cuticles.  This balm doesn't gloss over the problems.

If you're a stickler for the drugstore classics,  Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula is donating 15 percent of the sales price (with a minimum donation of $100,000) from specially-marked bottles of its core Cocoa Butter Formula products to Susan G. Komen® beginning October 2014 through June 2015.
