15 Beauty Products That Give Back to the LGBTQIA+ Community
Pride Month is finally here, and whilst we're busy planning which events we're heading to, there's also the fashion and beauty statements we'll be making while we're there. From limited-edition collaborations to rainbow-coloured packaging, there are tons of beauty brands stepping up to support the LGBTQIA+ community during Pride month and beyond.
Many brands have listened to beauty-lovers everywhere and realised that token gestures are not enough to make real, meaningful impact. That's why we're spotlighting those which celebrate Pride by actually going the extra mile in a tangible way. Via bright, bold, and beautiful products, we are backing the brands who are supporting UK charities including Not a Phase and akt, to name a few, which all aim to empower the LGBTQIA+ community as well as educate young people to make the world a fairer place.
If you're in the market for some fabulously fierce lashes, looking for a bold new lipstick, or hoping to add some skincare essentials to your basket, you can rest assured that these brands stand for inclusivity. Whether it's makeup, hair, skin care, or nails, there's no better time to shop your beauty must haves or try something new — all while contributing to organisations that support the LGBTQIA+ community. Treat yourself to these Pride-themed products ahead.
