Pretty in Pink: Beauty Products for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Summer is officially over. As most of us continue to deal with the lingering effects of the pandemic, many of us have neglected our regular health screenings because of it. However, now is a perfect time to take a closer look at our health and well-being. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and it’s a great time to schedule a yearly mammogram and encourage the women in your life to do the same. Awareness is a wonderful thing and taking action based on that awareness is even better.

And after you’ve taken care of your own health, you can go a step further by making a contribution to organizations that support breast health and work to find a cure. Fortunately, lots of companies make it really easy to support breast cancer research and Shop Pink with special edition products, the proceeds of which go to support the cause.  Here are a few of my picks for the best beauty, style, and home products for Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2020.

  1. This is awesome. I actually stopped donating for this and focused on donating toward Ovarian Cancer research because my stepmom has it. Well, she was in remission for about 3 years and it came back, spreading all over, with a few months left on her prognosis. Cancer isn't fun and it's great that companies are trying to find ways to not just be able to sell a product, but also put some of the sale to a good cause.

    1. Sorry to hear about your stepmother. All the best to your family.

  2. The Hard Candy eye shadows look fabulous. I really need some new makeup. Thanks for the suggestion.

  3. I love that so many brands support breast cancer research/awareness! I'm going to see if I can find some of the Jergens lotion at the store today since I needed some lotion anyways.

  4. It's really nice of companies to donate a percentage of sales of products but I'd love to see a larger number! And year round instead of just during special months. 🙂 I love all the pink.

  5. Oh wow I am surprised to see so many companies supporting the cause. I definitely plan to purchase from companies who support Breast Cancer.

  6. I love any company that supports any charity and for a good cause. This is why I buy there products to support the causes I care about.

  7. Love Them All But My Favorite Is The Compact!

  8. I just had my mammogram last Friday. It is important for us all to be aware of breast cancer even men which we tend to forget they can get it too. I love the Hard Candy eye shadow and the nail polish. Thanks for sharing.

  9. Great ways to be pretty in pink! I love Jergens. What an easy way to contribute to a great cause!

  10. It's wonderful how these companies are giving up portions of their proceeds for such a great cause.

  12. This is a great pink product suggestions for the breast cancer awareness month. It's nice to know that those companies support the cause.

  13. It is so wonderful that a portion of the purchase price is donated. There needs to be so much more awareness and research.
