A roundup of some of the coolest beauty releases to celebrate and honor Pride Month!
Text: Kevin Ponce
As pride month comes to an end, V is looking back at the beautiful collections that were released in the past several weeks, celebrating visibility for LGBTQIA+ people from around the globe. In recognition of the powerful strides that have been made towards equality, many global beauty powerhouses have decided to use their platform and privilege for good, participating in the conversation and movement for the queer community. The collections are not only keeping us looking fabulous, but are also philanthropic, by donating the proceeds made from the lineups to various global initiatives. From queer candles to glosses galore, you’ll be sure to sprinkle a little rainbow everywhere you go.
Below, you’ll find our curated list of collections to shop from.
