Happy Makeup Monday!
Two words: Think Pink! October kicks off Breast Cancer Awareness month, giving us new hope and reminding us to keep a strong- survivor mentality! One beautiful way you can empower all that are affected by breast cancer and help find a cure is to keep your beauty purchases pink this month. It’s so exciting to see all the cosmetic stores filled with pink as so many companies and designers have got on board with making limited-edition products for the cure and the proceeds benefit BCA charities!
Here are some of my favorites:
The Stila Positive and Pretty Palette is one of my favorite BCA products this year. In fun, chic packaging the pretty shades of pink (4 eyeshadows, a blush and a bronzer/highlighter) are wearable for all skin tones, and easy to carry on the go. Cleverly, it comes with a mirror and facechart to help you achieve the perfect look! All that must be expensive right? NOPE.Only $14! Super Awesome!
Get it at stila.com or ulta.com or any cosmetic retailer
This pale pink polish by Essie is sweet, chic, and very classy. Essie, which has a reputation for being one of the best in the nail business, is donating the profits to Living Beyond Breast Cancer. LBBC is a dynamic organization that has been a resource for women and their families for over 20 years.
Get it at $8, ulta.com , or any beauty supply store.
Pink Designer fragrances are the trend for BCA month!
Hanae Mori 4. Is a delicious floral and fruity scent, and the company will donate 10,000 of the sales.
Micheal Kors Very Hollywood pink lip gloss and perfume combo is a sexy and sophisticated , and plans to donate 10,000 of the sales.
Donna Karan’s Cashmere Mist Eau de Parfum Spray is an intoxicating Jasmine scent and she’s taking it a step above donating 15,000 to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
All of these scents are quite pricey($ 90-95), but are a good investment in more ways than one. Get them at any department stores where perfumes are sold.
This is the prettiest eyelash curler I’ve ever seen and one of the coolest ! Sephora is donating $1 of every sale of their pink lash-lengthening contraption to the BC Research Foundation. A lot of women are intimidated by eyelash curlers, but they won’t hurt you I promise!
Get it at for $16.00 Sephora.com or at any Sephora retailer
With the cold months now among us, we need a good lip balm and EOS is the perfect supplier. The Strawberry Sorbet Smooth Sphere Lip Balm is donating 5% of the proceeds to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. These sweet and moisturizing treats are only $3.29 at Ulta or evolutionofsmooth.com (My sister loves these! Every time I go to Ulta I grab a green one for her, but she’ll be getting pink this month!)
Ok, so these aren’t a beauty product but beauty & wellness go together, and running in these awesome kicks will definitely keep you fit and beautiful. Plus, I just think they are so cute! Reebok plans to donate $750,000 to the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer!
Get these for $99 anywhere sportswear is sold
Last, but not least this chic and convenient brush set comes from a proud breast cancer survivor herself, makeup artist Sonia Kashuk. Her pink on-the-go kit includes five makeup brushes and a metallic carrying case — perfect for travel. 15% of the purchase price will benefit The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
