On August 6, More Than 50 Top Beauty Editors and Beauty Brands Gather at Saks Fifth Avenue’s New York Flagship Store to Benefit Look Good Feel Better®

On August 6, Saks Fifth Avenue and Look Good Feel Better®, the charitable program that helps people with cancer address appearance-related side effects of their treatments, will host the fourth annual Look Good Feel Better National Beauty Editors Day. More than 50 beauty and lifestyle magazines and leading beauty brands will convene in Saks Fifth Avenue’s New York flagship store to provide consumers with a once-a-year opportunity to engage in 30-minute consultations: 15 minutes with their favorite beauty editor and 15 minutes with their favorite brand, all in exchange for a $40 donation to the Look Good Feel Better program.

Participants choose from a list of magazines/editors and brands for the consultations, which will cover a range of topics, including: current trends in skincare, fashion and makeup; inspiration and insider secrets; specific beauty advice; and product demonstrations. Each beauty brand will provide participants with an exclusive full-size gift.

“National Beauty Editors Day is now an annual signature event,” said Louanne Roark, executive director of the Personal Care Products Council Foundation and the Look Good Feel Better program. “This is an unprecedented collaboration between beauty magazines, beauty brands and consumers – all meeting at Saks Fifth Avenue to celebrate and support women with cancer. The day speaks volumes about the importance and power of beauty as a tool for healing and hope.”

Look Good Feel Better offers free workshops and support to people with cancer that include lessons on cosmetics, skin and nail care, wigs, turbans, accessories and wardrobe styling to help them to feel beautiful and confident during treatment. Since the program began in 1989, it has served approximately 950,000 people with cancer in the U.S. and an estimated 1.7 million people with cancer around the world.

“We are delighted to welcome again top beauty and fashion editors to Saks Fifth Avenue for Beauty Editors day to collaborate with Look Good Feel Better’s extraordinary program,” said Kate Oldham, Senior Vice President, Beauty, Saks Fifth Avenue. “It is a wonderful opportunity to invite customers, friends and family to join in this incredibly rewarding event that provides a special experience for women in support of this meaningful cause.”
