Embrace the Breast Cancer cause with Venus

It’s a cause that – sadly - will touch almost every one of us at some point in our lives – and with one in nine New Zealand women diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, it’s not a cause we can afford to ignore. One of the easiest ways to get closer to the cause and do your bit is by buying one of the many beauty products that have aligned themselves with the New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation (NZBCF), the latest of which is Gillette Venus’ popular Embrace razor. This very effective little number will now also be available in pink to help Kiwi women support this important cause, and an on- pack donation of 50c from every razor sold will be donated to the NZBCF between October 1 and mid November. The special edition pink Venus Embrace will include a ‘breast awareness booklet’, educating Kiwi women on how to be breast aware and to help set proactive breast checking habits for life. By providing the right tools, Venus and NZBCF hope to encourage women to check their breasts for abnormalities, as regularly as they change their razor blade. Too easy, and so essential.
