Beauty Brands Are Stepping Up to Support Coronavirus Relief Efforts
April 03, 2020ORLY has recently announced that they’re revamping their LA-based nail-polish factory to produce 75% alcohol-based hand sanitizers. The first batch of 10,000 units will be distributed to the Los Angeles homeless population. Come early April, consumers will be able to purchase hand sanitizer on their website.
The company has pledged to donate three million diapers, 300,000 packs of wipes and 20,000 personal care products to Baby2Baby. These resources will be donated to homeless shelters, health clinics and families impacted by coronavirus.
Thrive Causemetics has pledged to donate 100% of its proceeds from March 27th to Meals on Wheels, Baby2Baby and Feeding America. What’s more, the company’s founder and CEO Karisa Bodnar personally donated $10,000 to the University of Washington Virology Lab which is working on COVID-19 tests.
The beauty brand donated 500 jars of their C.E.O. Vitamin C Rich Hydration Cream to hospitals across the United States. Their hope is that the products will help the nurses and doctors dealing with dry, irritated skin due to wearing masks while treating patients.
