Girlawhirl finds that even a smile can support breast cancer research There are lots of ‘pink' lipsticks and glosses this month!

Always in the market for anything new along the lines of lip color, Girlawhirl was delighted to find so many shades of lipstick, glosses and stains that she wanted to add to her arsenal. Even better than adding the latest killer shade to her collection though, was that her purchases were not made in vain. She made a point to buy ‘pink' this month, and she's not referring to the tint of her lip color alone. In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month some of her favorite cosmetics companies, like Clinique, Tarte and Estée Lauder to name just a few, have promised to donate a portion of profits from certain ‘Pink' lip products to breast cancer charities. So she's ready to pucker up, and hopefully, kiss breast cancer goodbye… |
• Origins has always been one of Girlawhirl's makeup favorites. In fact, one of their discontinued lipsticks gets the award as her all-time favorite! But this month, she is making a point to pick up their Flower Fusion™ hydrating lip color—made by blending floral extracts with other botanical waxes to create a creamy, hydrating lipstick. But Girlawhirl really loves that the company plans to donate $2 from each sale this month towards its $34,000 donation to the Breast Cancer Research Fund!

• For a pink pout with a little extra pizzazz, Girlawhirl grabs Clinique's Colour Surge Butter Shine™ “In the Pink.” Shiny like a gloss, soft like a lipstick and great for her purse strings. Plus, Clinique will donate $10 of her purchase to the Breast Cancer Research Fund! Now that's what Girlawhirl calls a guilt-free purchase!

• Girlawhirl loves the entire Estée Lauder Pink Ribbon Collection. How could she not when 100% of the net proceeds from the collection's Pure Color Crystal Gloss, Pure Color Crystal Lipstick, Pure Color Long Lasting Lipstick, Pink Ribbon Pin and Pink Ribbon Compact are donated to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

• And not all of her stylish little sticks are for her lips. That's why Girlawhirl loves her limited edition Prescriptives Mystick Swivel Cheekcolor. It gives her cheeks the same creamy color treatment her lips are so used to. Brought back by popular demand for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Prescriptives will donate $42,000 of the profits to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

Girlawhirl can't get enough ‘pink' products – and thankfully there's no shortage out there. So she's checking in with her favorite cosmetics brands all month to see what each is doing for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
