October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It's a scary fact that one in eight women will develop breast cancer over the course of their lifetime. This statistic has nearly doubled over the past 20 years and current research says that the biggest obstacle in finding a cure is funding. In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month, I have rounded up some of my favorite beauty brands and products that donate a percentage of their proceeds to Breast Cancer Research. Shop these items to look and feel good!
