Happy October! This month is one of our favorites, not only do we have an excuse to whip out our favorite cozy sweaters and sip on pumpkin spice lattes, we also see thousands come together for one important cause, breast cancer awareness – breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among American women. As a bonus this month, there is one product that we felt fit all signs, one that deserves to be seen by all – IT Cosmetics Love Beauty Fully Love is the Foundation Brush. This limited edition densely-packed heart shaped brush features a heart-shaped glitter handle and proceeds from the sales support the Look Good Feel Better foundation, a group aimed at helping women feel beautiful as they experience cancer related changes to their appearances.
