Preppy Peachy Deegan LOVES Pink and Green and has found a new way to put them together! “Think Pink, Go Green” Beautorium Announces Support of Susan G. Komen for the Cure® North Jersey Affiliate Fundraising and Education about the Health Benefits of Natural and Organic Beauty Products to Highlight the Campaign


Natural beauty retailer Beautorium has announced a new initiative that will unite breast cancer fundraising, in support of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure® North Jersey Affiliate, with education about the health benefits of natural and organic beauty products. From Oct. 15, 2009 - Jan. 15, 2010, 25 percent of the proceeds from select products listed at www.beautorium.com will be donated to the North Jersey Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure®.

Beautorium has enlisted several of its brands, among the top natural beauty companies in the world, to participate in the effort. Exuberance Beauty, John Masters Organics, Juice Beauty, Marina Cosmetics, red flower, Revolution Organics, Saaf, Sophyto and Trilogy will donate to the cause.  Melvita Organics will also join the lineup at the time of its US debut on Nov. 9.  Among the 35 natural and organic products hand-picked to benefit Susan G. Komen North Jersey are Beautorium top-sellers like Trilogy Organic Rosehip Oil, Exuberance Brightening Facial Serum with Vitamin C, Saaf Organic Eraser Body Oil and Juice Beauty SPF 30 Tinted Moisturizer.   Whom You Know has tried the Botanical Body Wash by Trilogy and Dr. Hauschka's Lavender Bath; what could be better than using a great product for a great cause?

The unique support that Beautorium brings to Susan G. Komen North Jersey highlights the organizations’ interest in health awareness and education for women. In addition to raising funds that will help save lives, bring care and support to breast cancer patients and work toward a cure, Beautorium seeks to further the understanding of the importance of natural and organic products for our best health. Many ingredients that are commonly found in commercial beauty preparations have been linked to cancer or other health issues. Given that skin is our largest organ, able to absorb 60% of what we put on our bodies, the choice of natural and organic personal care products is an important step in protecting ourselves from an overload of harmful chemicals.

Beautorium offers only the highest quality natural products that are free from ingredients like parabens, phthalates, sodium laurel sulfate (SLS), sodium laureth sulfate (SLES) and polyethylene glycol (PEG), which may pose serious health risks.

 “I would like to thank Beautorium for raising awareness and funds for our organization from their Think Pink, Go Green Collection.  Their support will help us to one day realize our goal and vision of a world without breast cancer.” said  Deborah Q. Belfatto, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Susan G. Komen North Jersey 

Beautorium founder Ann Francke says, “We are passionate about the fight against breast cancer and thank Susan G. Komen North Jersey for the opportunity to support their work.  We are hoping that our benefit campaign will be highly successful and enjoyed by all!”
