Celebrate Pride Month with these beauty picks that give back
June is Pride Month, and joining in on the celebration are our favourite beauty brands. As you shop the many limited-edition rainbow makeup collections and products this month, it’s a good idea to note where your money is actually going.
Many skincare and many brands are taking the saying “put your money where your mouth is” literal sense and putting forth donations to support and help celebrate the LGBTQ+ community.
Making the world a move inclusive place, check out the beauty brands that are giving back.

Marc Jacobs Beauty’s Enamoured Dazzling Gloss Lip Lacquer has launched new shades in a limited-edition rainbow design. Until July 10, 2019, 10 per cent of global sales will go SAGE, an advocacy and service group for LGBT elders.
