Breast Cancer Awareness Month - Ten of the Best
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month – and the beauty industry is at the forefront of the fundraising. Over the past two decades, The Estée Lauder Companies’ BCA Campaign, launched by the late Evelyn H. Lauder, co-creator of the Pink Ribbon and founder of The Breast Cancer Research Foundation® (BCRF), has been a leading voice for breast cancer awareness around the world, and has raised over £29millon globally to fund research, education and medical resources.
Plenty other brands have joined in, and every October most beauty counters, hair salons, and beauty salons have a splash of pink, to raise funds and awareness. There are so many products out there it’s impossible to list all of them – so we’ve picked 10 of the best.
