Fashion & Beauty Brands Combat Coronavirus
I recently shared a post on how you can help in the fight against COVID. Obviously, there are a lot more, but it’s impossible to share all of the goodness going around right now! If you missed that post and are interested in donating to those organizations, you can find the post here.
In this post, I’m focusing on some amazing fashion and beauty brands that are helping to combat the coronavirus! If you know of another brand doing something special, please share in the comments below.
