Testimonial for Products Used During Chemotherapy (November 2009)
My name is Angela and I live near Boston. Arbonne has been like a miracle for me. Earlier this year I was diagnosed with colon cancer and I am undergoing an aggressive chemotherapy regimen called FOLFOX, with an added treatment of Cetuximab. So it’s like double-strength chemo, and this medicine basically stops the epidermis from functioning. From my scalp to the bottom s of my feet, all over my arms and legs and even my face, my skin is inflamed and very bumpy with acne I never had before.
When I tried the Arbonne products, I didn’t have a lot of hope at first. I had spent a lot of money on all kinds of products, from high-end cosmetic remedies to drugstore cures and antibiotic creams from the Dana Farber Cancer Center. They all burned my skin the second I put them on, even the Aveeno baths.
Except for Arbonne! Right away I could feel the difference - my skin didn't burn at all! The biggest difference is the calming effect on my skin. It is less red, less bumpy, and less itchy. Even the nurses at Dana Farber noticed and asked what I was using. Here’s what works for me: on my face I use the RE9 Anti-Aging Facial Serum several times a day, and I use the RE9 Night Cream during the day and night. On my body I use the RE9 Body Serum and Body Lotion. All over my whole body I use the SeaSource Face and Body Mask, which is terrific. All of these products contain Hyaluronic Acid, listed in Arbonne as sodium Hyluronate, which is a powerful skin hydrator.
It’s hard enough to go through chemotherapy with 3 young children, a husband and an active lifestyle. Arbonne has made it much easier for me and I wanted to share my story in hopes that it can help someone else.
