Help Kiss Breast Cancer Good-Bye

Help Kiss Breast Cancer Good-Bye

For Breast Cancer Awareness month, Karen, Purple Lab Creatrix, wanted to do something special and meaningful. Last year, she met an inspiring group of women – Malaak, Andrea, and Hayley – who lost their good friend to Triple Negative Breast Cancer, a rare and aggressive subtype.

When their friend Nancy passed, they created The Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation to bring awareness to and support research for triple negative breast cancer. It is an incredible organization comprised entirely of volunteers.

That is why Purple Lab created SWAC: Sealed With A Cure ($18.50) of which some of the proceeds will go to the charity. It is a delicious pink sheen with subtle flecks of real gold. The color is called Nancy – the legacy of TNBCFsm – and it comes with a love note telling her personal story. This gloss has been designed to boost “beauty, health, and confidence” while raising money for breast cancer research.

The gloss is formulated with all things for wellness and TLC:
► Echinacea, a purple cone flower that is used as an immune system booster;
► Mangosteens, a tropical superfruit, packed with antioxidants (it has a tangy, sweet flavor and it’s indigenous to the Sunda Islands and Indonesia and it happens to be Marc Jacobs’ favorite fruit – heard him talking about it once when I was eavesdropping on a convo in his showroom);
► Vanilla, the aroma therapy scent used for depression (Sloan Kettering happens to be the first medical organization that factualized the use of aroma therapy for medicinal purposes);
► and Vitamin C and E because if you’re going through chemotherapy, your lips get very dry.

It is soothing, nourishing, and absolutely perfect. Even if you are battling breast cancer, you can to feel beautiful and express your femininity – so important when you’re fighting a disease that attacks the feminine part of us.
So enjoy, pucker up, and think of Nancy and giving back to fight this disease and cure it… FOREVER!
