Kate Winslet and Lancome Team Up For Charity

What do a famous British actress; a renowned makeup brand and a charity foundation have in common?
 
Kate Winslet has teamed up with Lancome, creating a limited edition makeup collection whose proceeds will be donated to the Golden Hat Foundation. The Golden Hat Foundation was established by Winslet herself and aims to better the lives of autistic children. 150,000 Euros (over $200,000 USD) from the collection will be donated to the charity.
 
The collection includes a blush palette, a classic cherry red lipstick and a complimentary nail polish. Each piece is embossed with Winslet’s signature and a golden hat, symbolizing the foundation.
 
If you’re thinking this would make a perfect stocking stuffer for the makeup junkies in your life well, you’re right! The collection is available nationwide, but remember it’s a limited edition so stock up now collegiettes™!
