Fans were quick to head and support Glossier after their immense support of the movement.
@glossier deserves our BUSINESS. Please remember this, everyone! Boycott the silent and unbothered. PROMOTE THE HELL OUT OF BUSINESSES THAT CARE.

Glossier came, Glossier saw, Glossier countered; the popular skincare and beauty brand with a cult-like following of fiercely loyal millennials finally decided to speak out against the turbulent political climate and donate to the BLM movement. The iconic beauty brand lashes out at racist power abusers in an effort to hold them accountable for their actions. Glossier attempts to brush off the ugly blotches of bigotry that blemish the face of America. They plan to donate $500K to organizations dedicated to erasing racial injustice and another 500K to black-owned beauty corporations.
Thank you for your support!

It’s safe to say, after Glossier’s generous $1 million donation to the BLM movement, that the makeup company is da balm. We commend Glossier for its handsome donation and hope that its band of loyal followers will also offer aid.
I am a plucky Sophomore at Wesleyan University with a passion for writing, fashion, running, and extremely strong coffee—so strong that it would make a 6’5’’ WWE wrestler weep. I am a small person with a big personality, only intensified by the coffee, that seeps into both my bold street and writing style. I am currently based in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area and am excited to work for such an empowering, female-focused publication. During this trying time in history it is more important than ever for women to continue lifting each other up and spreading positive energy!
