Chantecaille Wishes You a Happy World Oceans Day!

Chantecaille is celebrating World Oceans Day with an amazing, limited-edition offer. You can purchase (at the company's Web site) both the Save the Sharks Palette and the Coral Reefs Palette for $120 (a savings of $32). Plus, Chantecaille will donate five percent of the sales to the BLOOM Association and the Marine Conservation Institute.
On World Oceans Day, people around the planet celebrate and honor the body of water that links us all, for what the oceans provide humans and what they represent. You can be a part of this growing global celebration - a tribute really - and indulge your love of beauty with one purchase of extraordinary makeup.

Each of the two palettes provides three eye shades and one cheek shade. I have them (of course) and love them. You can see swatches of Save the Sharks here and the Coral Reefs Palette here.

Passionately committed to saving our sharks, the BLOOM Association has successfully orchestrated a top-level ban on all Hong Kong Luxury Hotels from serving shark fin soup.They need to expand their efforts worldwide. The way shark fins are "harvested" is one of the cruelest things I've ever read.

With the Coral Reefs Palette, Chantecaille has continued its tradition of offering must-have makeup with an environmental benefit. Chantecaille has proudly joined the Marine Conservation Institute in their efforts to protect 10% of the world’s oceans by 2020. The oceans cover 71% of the earth, providing 80% of our oxygen and food for 3.5 billion people; yet less than one half of one percent of our oceans are protected. The health of the ocean is vital, and coral reefs are the alert system. Today three quarter’s of the world’s coral reefs are at risk due to over-fishing, pollution, and global warming. Maintaining 10% of the ocean’s ecosystems as “no-take marine protected areas” is the best chance for coral’s survival.

For this promotion, if you spend $100 at Chantecaille, you will also receive a free Lychee Luminous Gloss, through June 10 or while supplies last. You can see Lychee here.

There is no question that the fate of the oceans is inextricably linked with the fate of the earth and life. If you didn't purchase these gorgeous palettes when they were introduced - or you need back-ups - this is a great time to buy and show Chantecaille that you care too.
