- Опубліковано 8 січ 2015
- I was recently diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma and have been going through chemotherapy, so I know first hand the toll that cancer takes on your appearance. Thanks to my eyebrows falling out and my eyelashes jumping ship, I've had to tweak the way I do my makeup. I wanted to share how I've been doing my makeup to compesate for the hair loss. Hopefully this helps some of my fellow cancer warriors.
I apologize for how insanely long this video is, but I didn't want to leave anything out! Especially the brow details.

The wig that I'm wearing is the Jon Renau "Zara" in the color Shaded Praline.

Hey sweetheart , im 17 years old from jordan i was diagnosed with both lungs , liver,ureter NA,Lymph glands and left testicular cancer
It was very spread out my entire body,, after many rounds if chemotherapy and 4 surgeries, they removed all of the cancer and killed the cells with chemo now im back to high school and my normal life .
I hope my story would inspire you so you can make through also , hugs and kisses to all my survival brothers and sisters ✋🏻
AoN K So glad you got through this! You re honestly an inspiration! If i were you,due to ofcourse my huge fear of diseases,i wouldnt have survived mentally.But i can feel your strength! Oh and i just realized this comment was 3 years ago- lol!
I hope you re still doing good with your health! Lots of love from Greece! And all
My strength is with you
Respect
I hope You still doing good ❤My thoughts and prayers sweetheart
Praise GOD!!!
I have never commented on a video but your courage, beauty, and willingness to strive took my breath away. I hope you continue to win your battle with cancer and keep making amazing and encouraging videos. Thank you for showing everyone that being brave and strong is beautiful.
Thank you so much for making this video, Erin. I was diagnosed with with stage 3 breast cancer, chemo starts next week, and I didn't know what to do about the hair loss. Your video taught me so much, I feel confident now that I can look normal and feel good about venturing outside my house when I have the strength to do the simple things like grocery shopping and not worrying about how people look at me. It's not about vanity, it's about not getting the stares, or the looks of pity or, as I put it, upsetting the little kiddies (and adults). BTW, you are a beautiful woman, inside and outside, and I hope you are in remission and will be well and whole again SOON! You have an amazing attitude. You have given me hope.
I hope that You doing well and that You are in remission. GOOD BLESS.My journey is still a front of me.
How are you today?
I have had stage IV breast cancer over 6 years now and have been on chemo quite awhile. I was very lucky that in my treatments I was able to keep my hair until about a year ago when I was put on Taxotere and then I lost it all 11 days after the first infusion!
I was so not prepared, I would have loved to have seen this back then to help cover my ghoulish grey skin, lol. The new chemo regimen I am on turns my skin dark in certain areas which makes me feel like I look like i haven't had a shower in months! Very frustrating trying to not look like the walking dead!
I REALLY appreciate these types of videos. They really help give me tips and ideas for ways to perk up my appearance and not look and feel like I crawled of of a grave.
My hardest part is my eyebrows, I'll be trying some of your tips soon though and maybe it won't be such a struggle.
Anyways, thank you for doing videos like this, they are helpful and I can't thank you enough!
wow Erin, so awesome! Thank you. No videos in three years, I hope youre well xxxx
My Mum went through radiation and chemo therapy 14 years ago for breast cancer, and her eyebrows never really grew back and she is still a bit self conscious about it. For Mother's Day I'm going to get her some Anastasia products (I already use it myself), so thank you for this video. She's blonde as well and it is was a very good guide for me (being a dark haired girl).
And it's amazing what you're doing. Helping people while going through something as tough as what you're going through is inspiring, even if it's just to help them see they are still beautiful. I know it was tough on my Mum.
I've subscribed. :)
Erin, thank you so much for posting this. I usually dont wear a ton of makeup and have always been an amateur. Ever since chemo has been kicking in more and more, I 've had to wear more makeup and your video has been SO helpful. I love your easy to follow instructions and the list you provided at the end. You are inspiring and courageous. Thank you again and I hope this video finds you well. ❤
Thank you for this. I'm on my sixth round of chemo and been doing it for 8.5 years. It's depressing when you lose your hair and your eyebrows and your eyelashes. It's great to see a natural looking tute on how to look 'normal' while going through this.
Thank you so much for this video. I was diagnosed with Sarcoma at the end of December (merry christmas). I’ve been on chemo since February and the last of my eyebrows and my left eyelashes gave up the ghost over the weekend. That was the final straw for me in looking sick. I’ve been watching other makeup vloggers for months, but you helped me get off my butt and actually do something about how I was feeling about my looks. Thanks again, have an awesome week.
Dear Erin, I am not typically a "commenter", but I watched your video back in January before beginning treatment for Hodgkin's and felt so grateful to you. I cried the whole time I watched. Just felt so reassured to know I could put on a "normal" face and hair when I didn't want to advertise to the world that I was sick. I immediately got myself a Jon Renau wig! It's a struggle everyday, but I do find that when I look healthy and beautiful on the outside, it's easier to get myself going so I can get out and do the things I love, that make me feel the same inwardly. Thank you for sharing yourself. Hope you are doing well, two years later!
You have the nicest eyebrows I have ever seen. Wow!!! They look so natural and they are on fleek!! You go girl! Sending prayers your way xxx
Thank you so much for sharing your techniques, and may you be blessed with a speedy recovery, you are so brave, a true role model.
ERIN.... I cannot praise you enough girl! I think that you are sooo sooo brave to bare it all and show us what you must be going thru. I cannot imagine the toll chemo is taking on your body overall along with your skin changes and hair loss. My heart and prayers are with you. I am just going to go thru your vids now but PLS PLS PLS do an update so we all know how you're doing. Thx so much for your great vids and keep on fighting girl!! 💪👌👍🏻🙏🏻💟
I love this video so much. I am 16, and my single mom is going through Melanoma skin cancer and has also lost her hair.
I absolutely love your attitude throughout this video, you seem like such a strong person! I love your makeup, and hair! :) I hope all goes well with your treatment!
Thank you for such a great video Erin. I am a 64 yr old, just had my 2nd round of chemo with 2 more to go. May have just thinning of the hair or may have hair loss. Have decided to invest in a wig, and have to say yr wig looks so natural. I have been reading a lot of the comments and you have really helped a lot of young people who are going thru these issues. I wish u and all yr subscribers going thru this difficult time, all the very best xxxx
you look so beautiful Erin oh my goodness
I have the same cancer and makeup and wigs is a struggle for me, thank you so much for this video
Wishing you luck with your journey.Thank you for doing this video.This meant so much to me.
Thank you Erin for doing all your tutorials during your journey with cancer and chemo. Being recently diagnosed with breast cancer I desperately started searching for help with makeup and hair loss. I found so much more when I found your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and yourself to those of us on this cancer journey as well. Your inner beauty shines through. Sincere well wishes and thank you again.
Hi Erin. I’m just beginning my journey with Cancer treatment. Yours is the first video I’ve watched from beginning to end and thoroughly enjoyed all your tips and loved all the products that you used. I hope I can master the beautiful look you created. I wish you good health as you continue your treatment. 💜🇨🇦
This video has been so helpful to me, especially with the eyebrows! I just got diagnosed with Hodgkin's last month so I still have my hair and brows. Your wig also looks amazing! I love how natural it looks. Thanks for making this video!
Thank you sooo much! Your warmth and kind heart shines through. Wishing you all the best. You video was very helpful
You are soooo pretty. So happy I found you. You are a lifesaver and thankful you put your time and energy into this. I sooooooo appreciate this help.
and you look gorgeous would never have known you were receiving treatments. but THANK YOU!!! definitely subscribed
Thank you Erin for doing this video I know how hard it must be to do. I think you look beautiful. Good luck in your journey!!
Hi my name is Emily and I am 17 years old I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma in late November! So far I've been doing pretty well. I was petrified when I learned I was going to lose my hair and it happened very fast I have two wigs but I'd rather wear hats right now since it is cold. I plan on giving them to someone who can't afford to buy a wig. Anyway I love makeup as well and luckily my eyelashes and eyebrows haven't fallin out yet and hopefully they won't. I have a PET scan on Wednesday so hopefully that will show that the chemo is working and I will only have to do two more cycles!
Emily Catherine ..... How's everything going for you?
I LOVE your taste in makeup. Hourglass has the softest powders! Good luck with your chemo and keep on fighting.
I lost my grandad to lymphoma last year. I wish you every bit of luck and so much love and don't forget your beautiful x
Thanks so much for making these videos, I can’t tell you how helpful they are. My mom is going through chemo right now so these tips were super helpful for me to try and do her make up in a way that made her feel good about herself :)
Dear Erin. Hope your feeling ok after the chemo. You are a natural beauty. Thanks for sharing this with us, it must be very helpfull for the cancer suffers. My sister just got diagnosticated with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and i want to help her with the look which is very important for the cancer sufferers. People are starring at you guys and that must be paintfull for your self-confidence (which is actually suffering aswell). I really hope ur ok and that ur strength helped you to move on with this terrible condition. Wish you the best dear!
I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in April of 20202. I have been going through my chemo treatments and I needed this video!! Thank you so very much!! 🙏 you look beyond gorgeous!!!! I give you so much credit for posting this video!! Sending you tons of hugs!!! 🤗🤗🤗💕💕💕
God bless girl! You look beautiful, keeping you in my prayers. You're gonna kick cancers butt! Btw you have really pretty eyes and I like the way you did your eye makeup to compliment them! xoxo
You are so beautiful and so inspiring! I love your tutorial and I'm going to share it on all my accounts with everyone, I know you did this as a chemo look but it applies to everyday as well. So thank you for bringing inspiration into my life, I will keep you and yours in my prayers! xoxo
You are stunning both with or with out your wig & make - up. Thank you for uploading this vid and all the best with further treatment. Your positive, happy vibes are shining through my friend. Hugs & kisses comin at ya mate.
You are so courageous! I think you are wonderful, a real Earth Angel! Lots of love and blessings xo
Hey Erin! I am 20 and was recently diagnosed with brain cancer and will start chemo tomorrow. I can count the times I've worn make up in my life on one hand lol! Thank you so much for making this video. I've never worn makeup before, but after I had my brain surgery, my eyelids turned purple and my family and I thought it might be fun for me to start wearing makeup and keep the look going. I'm so glad I found your video!
Thank you for this wonderful video as it is scary for us first time chemo patients where we know we will lose our hair, eyebrows etc. This has been very helpful with the eyebrows and tips to go lighter. I have always used black since I have olive skin, but I will definitely try everything in the video.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR MAKE UP EXPERIENCE!
WOW Your AMAZING honey! SO glad I stumbled across your channel. Will be adding you to my prayer list! XO
your BEAUTIFUL! like seriously your so pretty!!!! even without your wig!
Hi, I don't have cancer or anything I just thought it would he interesting to watch, my grandmother has cancer and has been going through chemo. I just wanted to say you are BEAUTIFUL. With & Without makeup. :) you're gorgeous and you're gonna get through this❤️ God bless you & stay strong.
Omg, thank you for this video. I will share your video with all my cancer sisters. I am a 2xcancer fighter. You are beautiful.
Great no make-up make-up look! You are gorgeous, Erin.
What a beautiful inspirational young lady!!! 😍. I wish you all the luck, good health and happiness in the world XX😘
I think you look beautiful with and without makeup and the wig you have an awesome personality!!
Your so brave & beautiful. Loved this.! Good luck girl.
Great video thank you for posting this!! I too am going through chemotherapy, this really helps. Even though we are going through this rough patch we are beautiful no matter what!! God bless
Just came across this video and I'm just thankful you posted this and your other videos I'm going to check out. I'm an esthetician and makeup artist from Washington and just got trained in Oncology Esthetics and was browsing UA-cam for skin care and makeup videos relating to those going through treatment and I know skin can be so sensitive and dry but I'm happy that you makeup I already use in my kit as well so I'll be able to work on clients with a better idea
I have non Hodgkin's lymphoma leukemia and I'm 22 and my hair is falling out and I am so nervous. Thank you for this video.
this is amazing, i love your positive light.....I am sharing this with a friend, please keep them coming and god bless
Your videos are awesome and have been so helpful. Thank you so much for sharing and making this all feel less weird and abnormal!
All my love and blessings to you Erin. You are a beautiful woman inside AND out
i really enjoyed watching this video... your a beautiful young woman... and have given me amazing tips for my make up.. i just recently started using Anastasia brow penciland ask in LOVE with it also. .. but i needed to watch your strength even more now as my mother is going thru chemo for lung cancer... after her round 4 treatment-her body is taking a tough toll. .. i needed a reminder of strength.. thank you and God Bless you... you are in my prayers ... i know this was made 2 years ago. ... n i pray things for you are better now
You are so beautiful! Keep fighting on!!
I just lost my hair- lm going through chemo for breast cancer. Thank you so much for doing this because everything is so different while on chemo you have to start over! A wig try on and selection would be great and a false lash instruction. I don’t know if the glue and things are harmful to your eye area. Any instruction is so helpful. Loved this xo💞
Thank you for a beautiful video. Just had my first chemo treatment yesterday. Looking for for all tips that will be helpful!!🤗
God bless you; you are an inspiration! Thanks for sharing!
Bravo ! Quelle formidable idée ce tuto !!!! Bravo, what a good idea this tutorial !
hope u are well, ur very inspirational, and brave! Prayers
YOU LOOK SO BEAUTIFUL!
I have diagnosed with trichotillomania. I have barely any real eyebrows, eyelashes, and my hair is slowly coming out. I love you
best of luck :)
Stay strong Laura. Best of luck to you.
Stay strong Laura. Best of luck to you.
Thank you for this Video, I am not in chemo but for some reason my eyebrows have all fallen out. I have had the hardest time learning how to draw them on. I have watched numerous eyebrow tutorials but most are just adding to thin eyebrows. I just wanted to say your very brave for making this video and thank you. I hope and pray for your recovery.
Thank you so much! :)
You look great and did a kick ass video! Thanks for the tips!!!
Very beautifully inspiring. This tutorial is So helpful ❤
You're absolutely stunning with or without hair. 😍
Thank you so much for this video. This will really help my mom out. You are very beautiful by the way!
You are very beautiful without all of that makeup and the wig. You know, I'm never one to say that just to cheer someone up because plenty of people do it in the comments. But I surprised myself, because the first ting that I said when you took all of it off was," She is really beautiful!" I'm glad to see you're still uploading today and I'm excited for it to be your last treatment(that is over by the time I'm writing this).
Hey i know this is an old video but I’m 17 from Scotland and yesterday I got diagnosed with the same cancer as you and I’m starting chemo this week, thank you very much for making this ❤️❤️
I find you very inspirational !
28 and just got diagnosed with Cancer. You look amazing.
Hey Erin Thank you for this video. I just finished my chemo treatments. My daughter worked at the make up counter and bought me some Lancôme mascara That helps with eyelashes and eyebrows. This helped me to regrow some lost eyelashes and eyebrows. Some did fall out, but this did helped me get through this time. I love the natural look and the wig. Where did you get your wig. Again, thanks for the video. It has been hard feeling like a person when you lose your hair. Blessings.
As many of the comments below..I have stage 3 breast cancer and had my first chemo last week... Week one has been terrible and would not wish chemo on my worst enemy...during the week I have watched your videos several times and you have motivated me.. I may be sick, loose my hair , plus everything else chemo throws my way. But on my good days, when I feel almost normal I can also look that way which does wonders to the ego and body.Look Good...Feel Good .❤️
Also waiting for my wig to come as my hair, was very similar. I hope your battle is being fought well and wish you all the best.
I'm having my 4th chemo for breast cancer tomorrow and I found the first one was the worst for me. I hope you are feeling better and the next rounds aren't as hard for you.
My BFF was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. She starts her chemo this Friday and she has asked me to attend make-up/wig sessions with her on the last Thursday of every month. Your video is very humbling and inspiring.
I will be there for her. What is the best type of support you received?
Not sure where you live but I'm sending you positive thoughts from Ontario, Canada!!
Best of luck with your recovery.
Jennifer
Hope you’re okay & healed, Erin 💜
Hi Erin!!!! i m starting to lose my hair.... Taxol, ovarian cancer. thanks for the tips!!!!! i will try them!!!! and good luck with your treatment!!!! thanks for the tutorial! xoxo
She’s absolutely beautiful
Oh thank u soo much for this! Amazing!

You 're a brave lady,more glory for you
I’m using my husbands account , but I want to say .. Not only are you absolutely beautiful, but you are very inspirational for me at this difficult time in my life . Friday , I will go in to find out my test results with my gynecologist.
It’s been a long rough road , but I’m glad to have found your videos . I just now subscribed to you . Best wishes love 💕
You beautiful brave lady..bless your soul and your eyebrows there are pretty and its OK if your hair falls out etc...its all OK..you're so pretty........thank you for sharing your journey
Love the tips, thank you!
Erin, you're a a Goddess!
I lost my hair, lashes and brows during chemo, and I also used the Anastasia brow pomade! It looked really natural, and many people did not realize I’d fully lost my brows. I walked into an Ulta store and asked the makeup ladies what to buy and asked them to teach me how to use it. I found that I relished makeup (and jewelry and clothes) during treatment, because I didn’t want to look sickly.
beautiful spirit!
you are beautiful. I am a breast cancer survivor of 10 years and my hair never grew back like it used to be. its now very thin. I have ugly black circles around my eyes and no eye brows or lashes. I'm finally experimenting with make up and clip in hair extensions. good luck on your journey
You look great you do a very nice job I wish the best and I wish you good health.keep doing what you are doing.lots of luck.
You are beautiful !!! 👌🏻💅🏻💄
Get well soon dearly 🥰♥️🥰♥️🥰♥️
Wow that wig looked so natural
loved your video
+Erin Leigh 🙂 you are an inspiration to many others out there.
I'm new to this - as I had my first chemo treatment 2 weeks ago, head shaved yesterday. This will help me with my make up. You did a fantastic job. One question- where did you get your wig? Love it. Thanks for sharing.
YOU Are THE BEST😊
Emily, for some reason it won't let me reply to you directly. But I wanted to wish you the best during your Hodgkin's journey! You got this, girl!
Thank you!! Actually when I had thPET scan they couldn't find any thing left in my chest so I now only have one more round of chemo and I am very happy I have had to miss a lot of my senior year of high school . But I'm happy that I will be done with this soon
ur pretty as u are hun amd after well done u hope u kick butt of c... xx
You are so beautiful!!!!!!! I will be keeping you in my prayers honey!!
Thank you for your video. Drink plenty of water, avoid tea, coffee, cola which can dehydrate your skin. Also vitamin E is good for your skin and hair. I am soooooo tired of looking cancer, I want me back
you look amazing
you're so pretty
you look amazing soo beautiful :)
Thank you for this video. ☺
I totally appreciate your courage and bravery to make this video. I just underwent a full mastectomy surgery and will undergo chemo soon. I’m a bit scared of being bold. Your wig seems so natural and looks like my own hair. Can u share with me the details of this wig pls? I like to order it as well online if possible. Thx a million. Tina😊
