Hey Dolls, it's September and with that Laura Mercier wants to share their participation supporting Ovarian Cancer Month. They are launching some gorgeous limited edition products that you should check out:
September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, and we would be so grateful if you would join the Laura Mercier Ovarian Cancer Fund (LMOCF) in raising awareness of the disease.
The LMOCF was started by Laura
Mercier, founder of Laura Mercier cosmetics, and Claudia Poccia,
President & CEO of Gurwitch Products, the brand’s parent company,
because both women’s lives were touched by loved
ones who faced ovarian cancer. In 2011, Poccia lost her younger
sister, Laura Lia Murray who was only 39 years old, to the disease.
Mercier has witnessed her dear friend, Ranee Flynn bravely battle
ovarian cancer for years.
Last September, they, along with
their colleagues at Laura Mercier cosmetics, launched the LMOCF with the
mission of educating women about the disease, supporting those who were
undergoing treatment, and funding
research for a cure.
