Go Pink! 5 Feel-Good Buys

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and many brands are showing their support by donating their product’s proceeds to breast cancer research. If you’d like to give to the cause and want to know how you can help, here are some great products (from household product to jewlery) that are participating:

Pantene Beautiful Lengths

For each purchase one of Pantene’s Beautiful Lengths products, one dollar will be donated to the Canadian Cancer Society. Pantene’s Beautiful Lengths campaign asks women to grow, cut and share their hair to support women undergoing cancer treatment. Since 2008, Canadians have donated more than 40,000 ponytails to create real-hair wigs for women in need. For one Pantene Beauty Lengths real-hair wig, it takes eight ponytails.
