The month of May marks the Bold is Beautiful Project, Benefit’s global philanthropic initiative dedicated to empowering women and girls.
Bold Is Beautiful Mission
Benefit aims to teach women and girls to feel bold and capable so they believe in themselves and reach their full potential.
How They Do It
In May, 100% of Benefit proceeds from brow wax services go to charities empowering women and girls.
