The Edit: Beauty Buys To Support Breast Cancer Awareness Month
You should never need an excuse to treat yourself to a new beauty product, but if you do, there’s no better one than this. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and to mark the occasion, various beauty brands have brought out a limited edition product. Each time the product is purchased, a part of the money will be donated to this very worthy cause. A fabulous gift for yourself and helping others – what more could you want?
