Hi Cara, your new site looks great.
We did a Relay for Life back in April and gave out bottles of Sally Hansen "Dumped" along with the symptoms card you provided. Dumped is right on for color. They cost a dollar and so it was a fairly cheap handout for our booth.

My sister and I had pedicures with "Teal the Cows Come Home" last October following my surgery and I will wear it for the rest of my life. I constantly have people commenting on my toes and it does allow me to tell the story of OvCa. I belong to NOCC and OCNA and I hand out symptoms cards and bookmarks to close to every woman I come into contact with. If I don't have cards with me I send them in the mail or email websites with information. We have to be the voices to warn others. WIth lots of love, Lani

Painted my toe nails with China Glaze #550 Aqua Baby. It is a flat finish. Looks great. Hope to spark lots of questions. I am a 7 1/2 year ovarian cancer survivor. Thank you to all the companies supporting ovca. We need more companies like yours willling to be leaders in the fight against the more obscure ovarian cancer rather than followers supporting the usual cancers.
Switched to L'Oreal for makeup/hair color/etc. when I found out they support ovca.

How great! My daughter is a manicurist and I will have her paint my nails with a teal color. I wish I didn't have to wear my lovely thick compression stockings or I would get my toes done too! Linda

I wear flip-flops every day. The teal toes is a wonderful way to let everyone know about our support for those with this cancer. I recently[Aug.8] lost a dear friend to this disease. I will keep my toes teal this month in celebration and memory of her life and her battle.

I have my fingernails done in a French manicure, but instead of white tips, mine are teal. it looks great, fairly understated, but noticeable enough for people to ask why. Great opportunity to spread the word. I was going to do it just for September, but decided to keep it through October, too, with everything and every company going pink this month, I'm keeping my teal.
