Beauty Brands Helping Fight COVID-19

You’re probably sick of hearing about the pandemic by now. Especially since many of us feel like there’s nothing we can do to help combat COVID-19 except stay at home. Well, we’re wrong. Lots of beauty brands are donating part or all of their proceeds to organizations helping those in need during this crisis. Plus, several are even sending supplies, like protective masks and soap, to the medical professionals on the front lines. So why not stock up on some of your must-have products? We’re talking everything from lipsticks to hand washes to facial masks to hair care necessities. We’d also like to give a special shout-out to all the companies switching production to manufacture hand sanitizer as opposed to perfumes, makeup along with hair care and skin care products.

Bumble and bumble
Bvlgari
CHI
Coty
Estée Lauder
Guerlain
L’Oréal
LVMH
Orly International
SeneGence
Tan-Luxe

And we’d like to recognize Dyson since it has pledged to produce 10,000 ventilators. See the slideshow above for some of the best beauty products to buy to help the cause.

Check out the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) or the World Health Organization for the latest information on the virus and learn what you can do to stop the spread.
