WINNER: Drum roll, please…Â Patti! Congratulations, you’re the winner of more than $1,000 in makeup from MAC, Make Up For Ever, Clinique, Estee Lauder and Bobbi Brown. Thank you to everyone who took the time to share a sign this year. Hopefully someday soon, a cure will change the meaning of Breast Cancer Awareness Month for people around the world.
Hey, friend. I’ve been sitting here for the past half an hour trying to figure out how to put my feelings into words. I write a sentence, then cross it out, write a sentence, cross it out.
I can’t think of a more elegant way to say it, so I’m just gonna say it…
You and I have been together for a really long time. Going on five years now, which is like 20 years in Internet time, and I think of you like a sister. Sure, we don’t fight over who got to wear that oversized Esprit sweater to the dance or argue about who got to use the car last Friday night, but watching you move about your life and just chatting about whatever — the books we’re reading, the food we’re eating, the makeup we’re lemming, the pets we’re loving — I feel like we’ve become a part of each other’s lives.
And just as there are defining moments that bring family members closer together, I think The Breast Cancer Awareness Month Sign Project we started last year did that for us.
Many of us reading right now have been affected by this dreadful disease, and I hope we stand together again this year to show our support for our sisters, our mothers and our friends. It’s such a small gesture, really, but I hope that in some small way the good wishes we send out into the universe help someone through a difficult time.
I’ve run donations for breast cancer charities in the past, and I encourage you to also support the cause that way if you’re able to, but I know that you’ll have many opportunities to give and show financial support on other sites this month. What we’re doing here this month is about increasing awareness, showing support and standing with solidarity — like a psychic hug and a hand squeeze — to the men (yes, men), women and families facing this disease.
Join me this Breast Cancer Awareness Month by taking a picture of yourself with a sign like the one at the top of this post, and you’ll be entered to win a prize package worth more than $1,000 in makeup and beauty products provided by MAC, Clinique, Make Up For Ever, Estée Lauder and Bobbi Brown. It can be a large sign or a small sign, like on a Post-It, or a camera phone pic of yourself with your sign written on your arm.
For this year’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month Sign Project, so many great sponsors stepped up to the plate. I can’t thank the wonderful people at MAC, Clinique, Make Up For Ever, Estée Lauder and Bobbi Brown enough for their generosity. If you’d like to know more about what a few of these brands are up to this year for BCA, check out BCAcampaign.com.

Chelsea says
October 1st, 2011 at 12:12 pmBreast Cancer took the life of the woman who would have been my mother in law. She was the strongest, bravest person I’ve ever known with the biggest heart. I miss her every single day. She took me into her home, myself not being an easy person to live with, when I needed it most.
I’m in.
Karen says
October 2nd, 2011 at 7:03 amHi Chelsea,
I’m so sorry for your loss. She sounds like a great person who will always live on through your memories and the example she set.
Please do send in a sign and let me know about it, because I would love to include it in the giveaway.

My mom is a breast cancer survivor- and a day does not go by that I don’t think about the battle that she faced and how lucky she was due to catching it early. Women should not fear mammograms- they can save your life! I will work on a sign and send it to you soon. In the beauty BLOGosphere you epitomize beauty with a conscience! Thank you so much for doing this to celebrate women’s health!

Because it would be really cool if I won that, since my stepsister’s mom died from a cancer that started on her breast, and I know that she’d feel good if she [who’s 15] could take part in the picture alongside me, and my pretty kitty, Bella ;D
Thanks !
p.s. you do have a specially funny blog, you know?

NeenaJ says
October 28th, 2011 at 7:03 amI’ve lost a very close friend to breast cancer. While, thankfully, I don’t have a family history, it is certainly something that all women and men have to take very seriously. Do your breast exams, folks, and listen to your body!
I just emailed you my pic, Karen. Thank you so much for heightening awareness and for the lovely giveaway.

October 28th, 2011 at 6:39 pmI was waiting for Race for the Cure in Maryland so I could take a picture of my team Shoe-B-Boobies AKA the Boobie Ballerinas (though my sign blew away)! We ran the race in pink tutu’s and rhinestone ribbons to make sure we caught the eye of every man, woman, and child. It worked too, we raised almost $1,500.00! Thank you for doing your part to raise awareness, you rock!
