Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2019: Best Buys That Give Back

Support the cause with one of these limited edition products

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and some of our favourite fashion and beauty brands are getting on board with limited edition collections to support this incredibly worthy cause.

According to the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF), breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Australia, and horrifyingly, that number is on the rise. Eight women die every day in Australia from the disease, making it never more important to ‘think pink’ and take action. Whether you want to shop fashionbeautylifestyle (or all of the above), there’s something you’ll love to buy to help raise awareness and funds for much-needed research. 

Below, a roundup of 2019’s best pink buys in honour of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
