October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and clean, non-toxic skincare brand CLEARSTEM Skincare collaborated with Keep A Breast Foundation on a limited-edition BOUNCEBACK Scar Serum. The serum is optimized for breast cancer-related scars and post-care needs and it shares the benefits of a stem cell and triple-peptide concentrate to smooth and flatten scars and wrinkles, all the while reducing their appearance and color.
For every bottle of the BOUNCEBACK Scar Serum that's sold, $20 goes toward the work of the non-profit Keep A Breast Foundation organization, which is focused on empowering young people with breast health education and support. To support the organization's mission, the product packaging includes a QR code that helps to provide educational info via the Keep A Breast app, such as resources for monthly self-checks.
