These Are The Fashion & Beauty Brands Donating Money In The Wake Of The George Floyd Protests

A single Instagram post can get lost on an ordinary day. On a weekend with more than 140 cities protesting the death of George Floyd — the 46-year-old Black man killed by the Minneapolis Police Department — it is near impossible to keep up. Still, noting which fashion and beauty brands are donating money in the wake of Floyd's death is of the utmost importance.

Over the end of May weekend, the anonymous beauty industry collective Estée Laundry shared a list via its Instagram compiled by @Hapaskin titled "brands that have committed financial resources to support the fight to end police brutality against black people." As Monday brings in a new week, this list is expanding, with more brands donating to bail funds, anti-racism organizations, and more. Many continue to shed light on the deaths of other Black people, including Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and Tony McDade, emphasizing the grief felt and showcasing why protestors have felt the need to act.

Below, 18 fashion and beauty brands who have made donations, and where the money went.
