As most people know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. But for those that don't, I'm sure the increase in pink ribbons, pink shirts, and Weekend Walks may have, eventually, tipped you off.
Though there are so many ways to donate to many Breast Cancer Charities, it just got even easier for us product junkies. As it turns out, there are plenty of beauty products you can shop for that benefit related charities and here are a few of my personal faves:
This limited edition trio key ring features a pink ribbon heart charm, Clinique "C" charm, and three mini lip favorites: Long Last Glosswear SPF 15 in Clearly Pink, Superbalm Moisturizing Gloss in Grapefruit and Different Lipstick in Glazed Berry. (Clinique will donate $4 per key ring purchased to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation during the month of October.) Retailing at $16 USD
The lip design collection was hand-picked by Evelyn Lauder (one of the creators of the pink ribbon symbol; her mother was Estee Lauder) herself. Trio includes: Pure Color Crystal Lipstick in Tiramisu, Pure Color Lipstick in Candy and in Rubellite. The lip colors in a pretty pink cosmetic bag. (Estee Lauder will donate $500,000 in connection with the sales of its Pink Ribbon Collection to the BCRF.) Retailing at $25 USD
Bobbi Brown Pink Shimmer Brick Compact www.bobbibrown.com
Bobbi Brown has created a limited edition Pink Shimmer Brick Compact. Hand-made in Italy, each brick contains five bars of iridescent color. Use on cheekbones, eyelids or allover for a pink glow. (Bobbi Brown will be donating $35,000 in connection with the North American sales to the BCRF.) Retailing at $38 USD
This eyelash curler is engineered and tailor-made exclusively for Sephora. At a price of about $16 USD, Spehora will be donating $1 from each eyelash curler sold to the BCRF.)
This pretty pink lip gloss is in a limited edition package. It's a silky-smooth lip color that stays in place for up to 6 hours and protects your pout with SPF 15. By the way, all proceeds of this product, through the month of October, will be donated to the BCRF. Retailing at $21 USD

I COULD go on and on and on about all the exclusive products available OR you could all go online, start shopping, purchase some of these products and help find a Cure.....hmmm, decisions decisions...
