12 Beauty Products You'll Love Even More Once You Learn Their Backstories

The only thing better than a beauty product that actually lives up to its claims? A product that does so AND gives back to an amazing cause. This fall, we're stocking our makeup bags with nail polishes, makeup, skincare, and more that do good while helping us put our best faces forward. Currently decorating our vanity: OPI's emerald green lacquer that donates proceeds to the Sandy Hook Promise organization, Laura Mercier products helping Ovarian cancer research, and soothing Aromatherapy Associates bath oil that does double-duty to aid in the development of a cancer vaccination. But that's not all -- we rounded up more amazing makeup, fragrances, and body washes that benefit even more amazing charities. Click the photo to shop for a cause!
