The Beauty of Giving

'Tis the season to give!  And there's nothing better than doing your part (however big or small) in helping those who need it most.  Even better...shopping for and buying beauty products that then turn around and donate a portion or even all proceeds to a great charity!

If you are going to give to yourself, why not make sure it also helps out a worthy cause!  There are many, many products out there that participate in charitable profit donations...and here are some of my favorites!

MAC Viva Glam Lipstick

It's a deep pink that may not suit everyone but you can blend it with other colors or glosses to suit your skin tone.  Best part - long wearing and a soft creamy consistency.  Even better part...EVERY PENNY goes to those affected and living with HIV and Aids.












Philosophy Shower for the Cure

A light, relaxing scent that doubles as a spa-like experience in your own home!  And...ALL proceeds go to breast cancer research!












Lush Charity Pot

Super duper soft body butter that will leave you moisturized for days! EVERY CENT goes to carefully selected humanitarian, environmental and animal rights charities.












Clarins Feed 10 Set

I call Clarins the medicine of beauty as they make some very good "treatments" for several skin concerns.
Each purchase of $40 provides 10 school meals through the United Nations World Food Programme.  The set includes deluxe travel sizes of Beauty Flash Balm, UV Plus HP SPF 40 Day Screen, Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector (01 Rose Shimmer), Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch.










These are just a few of my newest favorites.  There are so many more out there.  Give a little, get a little!!!
