Well+Good TALKS: How 2020 Has Completely Changed the Way We Think About Beauty

The beauty industry, like so many others, has undergone a seismic shift over the past six months. The way people think about their skin, the way they shop, and the growing awareness (finally!) of racial injustice in beauty have all changed the trajectory of the market forever. In this discussion, our panel of beauty insiders will discuss all of this and how individuals’ habits and routines have been impacted—for the better!

For this W+G TALK, every dollar raised will be donated to Look Good Feel Better, a free nationwide charitable program dedicated to helping women with cancer cope with the appearance side effects of treatment.
