PHILADELPHIA (CBS) ? More than two dozen women got makeovers today in an unusual place: Fox Chase Cancer Center.
The idea germinated in May, says hospital spokeswoman Lisa Bailey.
?The Lanc?me counter at Bloomingdale?s in Willow Grove had Manuel Villegas, their national make-up artist, in for the day, and they had a few openings and called us and said, ?Would you like to bring some patients????
Six Fox Chase cancer patients got the star treatment then, and it was such a hit that Villegas was back with some assistants to do 28 this time, with one aim: ?Make these ladies understand that they?re beautiful, no matter what, no matter what stage of their life,? he says.
Dierdre Duffy looked smashing as she emerged with a new outlook.
?It was pleasant to come here for this kind of event and not be coming for chemo, for instance, or a CAT scan,? she said with a smile.
