BEAUTY & GLAM PRODUCT JUNKIE Shop BeautyKind – Cause, Commerce and Community for the Greater Good Our Product Junkie, Tameka Green, has found a way to shop for makeup, skincare, fragrance, and hair and nail products while giving back. BeautyKind integrates cause within commerce and donates 5 percent of the purchase price of every product to the cause of the consumer’s choice. The site also offers a loyalty program where up to 5 percent of every purchase will be given back to consumers in the form of “Beauty Points” as a reward for buying from the site and sharing BeautyKind within their social community. Consumers are encouraged to “Share” through a personalized link and distribute via personal email or their own social media platforms. The Beauty Points can be redeemed for additional donations, samples, products, expedited shipping, and as a debit card to spend as desired. Partnering charities include organizations such as the American Cancer Society, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Soles 4 Souls, and Breast Cancer Charities of America. Or contact them to have your cause added to their list of organizations. Visit www.beautykind.us, choose your cause, and start shopping! Try a new brand and send Tameka a note about it at tameka@ gazellestl.com. “Gazelle” readers will receive $25 off any purchase of $50 or more.
