Hi friends! As some of you know I helped start, Share Your Beauty the first beauty product donation program, in partnership with the non-profit organization Family-to-Family. Together we organize drives and events to collect beauty and hygiene products and deliver them to shelters and teen centers in NYC and the tri-state area.
We’d love your support with donations of any unused beauty and haircare products (unopened samples will also be accepted) for a special drive we’re working on. Anyone that donates 10+ products will receive a $20 credit to the PRIV app. PRIV brings your favorite beauty services including manicures, blowouts, and makeup applications directly to your location; anytime, anywhere.
While we accept donations year round we are partnering with PRIV and LeSportsac on September 30th to organize a special event for the non-profit, Covenant House. The PRIV makeup artists will provide free makeup applications and tutorials for women getting back into the workforce and LeSportsac is providing bags for all of the attendees. Any beauty product donations are appreciated as we will be filling the bags with the donated items to give every woman in attendance a gift.
