Band Together With Mary Kay To Fight Domestic Violence {Giveaway CLOSED} Part 2

12:00 AM


***GIVEAWAY CLOSED***

Last week I posted about how Mary Kay has really stepped up to combat domestic violence by creating a
three-video mini-series of Inspiring Stories. These have been great to watch so far and I hope you have enjoyed them too!!

Well, today I am going to present the second video and this one is called "Give Joy". It is narrated by Alexa Vega. In order for your view of this video to count, you need to watch it in it's entirety.
Domestic violence is a silent war that rages in and around homes all over this world and the victims need to know that we care!!! Show your support for this cause by taking a minute and watching this short film. It will inspire, amaze and encourage you to show others that you care.

So, without further ado, here is the film...




I loved watching this. Being that I am NOT a victim of domestic violence, it is hard to comprehend what it is like to live in a hostile environment where the one you love is hurting you. These women have truly overcome some great hurdles and I am impressed with where they are now. This was a great film!!!

As with the other "Band Together" post from Mary Kay, this post also has a giveaway! It will be the same prize, which is a red Mary Kay Beauty Clutch. Inside the clutch is a Mary Kay Lash Love Mini, a Bella Belara Fragrance Wand and a Beauty That Counts Sampler Card. This clutch has a retail value of $25. Here are your entry options!

    It was a really nice video about three women who were able to escape abusive relationships. It is such a horrible situation to be in. If you haven't been there, you really don't understand it. They are so positive now.

    Domestic abuse is the number one reason for injury to women. Also, for a limited time Mary Kay is donating a dollar from every lipstick purchase to stop domestic abuse.

    Great stories in the video. It really is a lonely place that no one understands unless you have been there. I like the message of 'joy' and having a vision that does that involve that abusive person and some perseverance.
