It’s a sobering stat that 1 in 8 women has a chance of being diagnosed with breast cancer at some point during her lifetime. I’ve already lost three aunts to the disease and don’t want to lose anyone else.
Since 1985, October has been designated as Breast Cancer Awareness Month in an effort to raise awareness and funds for the cure. During the month, retailers and companies donate a portion (and in some cases 100%) of their proceeds toward breast cancer research.
From specially-designed brush sets to pretty lipstick shades, purchasing beauty products for a great cause is always a good look!

Have you ever purchased a product solely based on helping a good cause? Have you ever had a mammogram?
Beautiful post! I too have been terribly touched by this disease. My heart goes out to you.
My aunt is a 15-year breast cancer survivor! I purchase products all the time that support breast cancer research/awareness.
