This delicious royal blue nail polish by Essie is more than just a lovely colour. Its name is Becky’s Wish. All proceeds from sales will go to the Starlight Children’s Foundation, which grants sick children once in a lifetime wishes as well as providing entertainment in hospitals and hospices across the country. You can buy it at Cowshed Spas exclusively or online here, from today. Look out too for the Channel 5 documentary which runs through February celebrating 25 years of the charity. Tonight it’s about a little girl called Becky.
There’s a heck of a lot of good about the world of beauty – heaps of beauty companies make it their business to raise money for charities, from Breast Cancer Care to charities for children.
Clinique is another, supporting Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity and Kiss It Better, an annual appeal spearheaded by an old friend and work colleague of mine, Carmel Allen (in the centre of the photo below), to raise money to fund research into the causes and treatment of childhood cancer. Her own daughter, Josephine (see below too) was treated there for a form of cancer when she was little.
Through February you can buy a selection of Clinique products and proceeds will go to Kiss It Better. There is a limited edition lip gloss set – Smoothie Kisses Lip Gloss Set – you can buy it at House or Fraser and a total of £4 out of its total cost to you of £22.50, will be donated. Or £2 from every Clinique lipstick or gloss purchased at House of Fraser will go to the appeal. Go on, you deserve another lippie – just make sure you buy it at H of F during the month of February.
