Prevent Gynaecological Cancer

We’re proud to be participating in The Eve Appeal’s #getlippy campaign for the third year in a row!

SUPPORTING GYNAECOLOGICAL CANCER RESEARCH

The Eve Appeal is the UK charity raising awareness and funding research for the prevention of earlier diagnosis of the five gynaecological cancers.

💋 Cervical

💋 Ovarian

💋 Vaginal

💋 Vulval

💋 Womb

These five gynaecological cancers affect 21,000 women in the UK each year. This means 58 people receive this life-changing news every day. Raising awareness of these cancers and their symptoms can help in early detection and treatment.

SAY NO TO GYNAECOLOGICAL CANCER

Throughout May, 10% of every sale* of Tinted Lip Gloss via our website was donated the The Eve Appeal.
