The Estee Lauder Pink Ribbon Collection helps raise awareness that early detection saves lives. Today the Pink Ribbon is the ubiquitous, worldwide symbol of breast health and breast cancer awareness, during this month Estee Lauder Beauty Advisors hand out PINK RIBBONS, informational brochures and more. This takes place not just in North America, but at counters around the world where women are desperate for information and hope.
