Holiday Beauty Buys that Give Back

I've come across a few very easy ways to give back with your holiday beauty purchases this year, and wanted to share my favorite three.

 

Help Colourpop & NKLA meow the needle this Christmas.

 

1. Amazon Prime has made leaving the house to shop for basics entirely unnecessary, and is beefing up it's luxury beauty department. But, do we always remember to go to Amazon Smile (which sends a kick-back to charity for every purchase) instead of Amazon proper? If you're using Amazon's iPhone app, you can't easily access Smile, but if you're on a web browser, go to www.AmazonSmile.com or, to go directly to Amazon Smile's Luxury Beauty Department to feel good about your spoils.

 

2. Colourpop wants L.A. to be a no-kill zone for shelter animals. Help Colourpop, Best Friends and NKLA to "meow the needle" on this effort by picking up a sparkly shadow or highlighter from their NKLA collection. Put it right on Santa's cookie platter for him to bring back to Mrs. Claus.

 

3. The next time you're picking up some MAC or Jo Malone at Nordstrom in-store, now through December 24, find a "giving card". Each $10 card contributes toward a child’s new pair of shoes, thanks to Nordies, New Balance, and Shoes That Fit. Also applies at Nordstrom Rack stores.

Take it easy this holiday, loves, and... CHARGE! (Especially if part of your purchase goes towards a heart-warming cause).
