Beauty Tips For Body Care
This is my second attempt posting this. I don't understand why it was taken down in the first place, but I find it discouraging if the r/SkincareAddiction mods decided to take this down for further review because it was too political - especially since they just made a post supporting BLM. If this is taken down again, I would say it's a sign that their support is just surface level.Ultimately, it's important to not only support businesses that are founded by unrepresented communities but also to NOT support businesses who are funding and supporting the current administration. I hope this post doesn't get silenced again.Original Post:In light of the posts of supporting black-owned businesses, I thought it might be worth mentioning some skincare companies that you might want to avoid since they support Trump's campaign in some way. Most of this info comes from the #GrabYourWallet campaign that went around last year.Estee Lauder Companies:Estee LauderCliniqueDr Jart+Glam GlowLa MerOriginsBumble and BumbleAvedaRon Lauder (son to Estee Lauder and heir to Estee Lauder Companies) actively donates to Trump's campaigns (Records).LVMH:SephoraBenefitFreshLVMH chief executive Bernard Arnault is said to have close ties with Trump and his family. Some examples include him being a guest at Trump's first state dinner and being one of the first CEOs in talks with Trump after his inauguration in 2017 (Source).Revlon:RevlonElizabeth ArdenAlmayRonald Perelman is Chairman of the Board of Revlon and donated to Trump Victory. He's also speculated to have ties with Kushner.This definitely isn't a complete list, but I thought this might be a good place to start. I'm not demanding anyone to completely change their skincare routine if something from one of these companies is your HG, but I would ask you to be more aware of where your money is going and how it might be impacting others. #BLMIf anyone knows of any other companies that might fit in this list, please mention them in the comments!EDIT: This doesn't really go under supporting Trump, but another conglomerate that might be worth scrutinizing is L'Oreal. Model and activist Munroe Bergdorf says that L'Oreal dropped her from a campaign for being vocal against racism: https://www.teenvogue.com/story/munroe-bergdorf-loreal-paris-black-lives-matterL'OrealVichyLa Roche-PosaySkinceuticalsCeraVeAcneFree
