THE MESSAGE: FROM OUR LIPS
Between us girls….you know you’ve got a sexy voice…use it! Let’s talk about the kind of relationships we want to have, and how to keep it safe, seductive and satisfying. And don’t forget, every cent from the sale of MAC Viva Glam Lipstick and Lipglass goes toward helping women, men and kids everywhere affected by HIV and AIDS. Viva Glam is the main source of funding for The MAC AIDS Fund. MAC’s spokes models, makeup artists and entire MAC family are fiercely committed to the cause.
THE (HUSH-HUSH) ISSUE: WOMEN, AIDS & HIV
Forget the stereotypes. Women are more likely to become infected with HIV than men. While the overall rate of new HIV infections has slowed, the number of women infected with HIV is growing. And in every part of the world. In sub-Saharan Africa, six out of every ten adults living with HIV are women and, even more disturbing – three out of four young people between the ages of 15-24 are infected. In the United States, where there are far more resources for HIV prevention and care, the number of women living with HIV has tripled since 1985; more African American women between the ages of 18-35 die from AIDS than from any other illness. Now is the time to make a difference for women. Continue reading ‘From Our Lips: The MAC AIDS Fund speaks up for women, AIDS and HIV’
