Helping is a Beautiful Thing


In light of the recent earthquake and tsunami devastation in Japan, beauty companies all over the world are doing their part to contribute to those in need of our help the most. Listed below are contributing companies reaching out a helping hand to relief funds in Japan. Look beautiful and heal the world? Sounds like a win/win to me...

  1. This is such a great movement! It's really sad that people haven't been donating as much for Japan as they did for Katrina and Haiti (so far, at least), so maybe this way, some of the difference can be made up! :)))
