Tim Quinn, celebrity makeup artist for Armani Beauty, knows firsthand how the physical discomforts of chemotherapy can affect the skin and give the face what he calls a greenish-gray pallor. In addition to working with cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy to help them adjust their beauty routines to meet the challenges of complexion changes and lash and eyebrow loss, Quinn also underwent chemotherapy himself, when he was diagnosed with testicular cancer several years ago.
