Think of it as the ultimate bathroom triple threat?a creamy all-in-one combination of milk proteins and fruit essence that can be used as shampoo, shower gel or bubble bath. As the brand adheres to its own personal philosophy of living life well and vivaciously, 100% of net proceeds will be donated to EIF?s Woman?s Cancer Research Fund.

Karl Lagerfeld, the iconic Chanel designer, has combined forces with Saks Fifth Avenue and Entertainment Industry Foundation?s Key to the Cure campaign, in creating a long-sleeved tee. Crisscrossing arrows are sketched on the front, and Lagerfeld's suit-clad image rests on the back, next to his signature. Nearly all the proceeds from the sale of each limited edition tee ($35) will be contributed to EIF's Women?s Cancer Research Fund.

Here?s a moisturizer with a mighty claim: Aveda is donating $4 for each purchase of the limited edition hand-saver (retailing at $19) to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. The lotion contains hydrating plant extracts and antioxidants, and you can be rest assured that it?s good for you and planet Earth; Aveda stays true to the brand?s eco-friendly roots with botanically-based products.

Maybe you already guzzle this fizzy drink supplement spiked with minerals and electrolytes to boost your energy and vitamin levels. If not, now is a good time to start, as half of all proceeds from the tangy pink-lemonade flavor will be donated to the Keep a Breast Foundation. Sold exclusively at Whole Foods Market (grab a box for $12.99), it allows you to drink pink for the cause, literally.

Two intertwined "love"-inscribed rings in 18K white gold and 18K rose gold linked by a deep pink silk cord form the 2008 edition of Cartier's Love Charity bracelet. It's a splurge at $995 a pop, but $200 of each sold will benefit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

Rock the season?s trendy, super-sleek blunt bob (think Katie Holmes) with help from this shocking pink hair iron from British-import GHD (stands for good hair day, folks). The ceramic iron ($225) helps protect your strands from damage and creates straight, silky locks. It?s got a dual purpose, too?if volume and body is your hair mantra, the rounded barrel makes for easy curls, flips and boho twists. Fifteen dollars from each sale supports the Young Survival Coalition, an organization that encourages young women to become advocates for their own health. Now that?s hot.
