Which cosmetic products during chemo? 

Chemo and cosmetic products are not incompatible, quite the opposite. However, it is important to choose suitable products. It is necessary to pay attention to the compositions and give preference to organic cosmetics during chemo. In addition, there are some essential cosmetics that you will need to better accompany chemotherapy. 

First, silicone and anti-UV nail polishes. These chemo nail polishes are designed to protect nails from the effects of chemotherapy and prevent them from cracking and darkening. You must use the nail polishes the day before your first chemotherapy up to 6 months after your last chemotherapy. Everything you need to know about nail protection during chemotherapy can be found in our article: How do you protect your nails during chemotherapy?

Which cosmetic products after cancer? 

After cancer, it is important to continue to take care of your skin and keep it well moisturized. Cancer is also the time when hair, eyelashes and eyebrows grow back. In this phase you can help stimulate and improve post-cancer hair growth with Revitalash or Nanolash products, but also with castor oil and stimulating products. You will find numerous solutions in our “Eyelashes and hair” category. As for the nails, it is important to continue applying silicone and anti-UV varnishes in the 6 months after the last chemo.
