At Thrive Causemetics + Bigger Than Beauty Skincare, every product you purchase helps make beauty more than just makeup — it becomes a tool for confidence, self-expression, and empowerment. Thanks to you, we’re able to partner with organizations like Give n’ Glow, a nonprofit dedicated to ensuring that women facing hardship have access to the self-care and beauty products they deserve.

About Give n’ Glow: Beauty for All

Founded in August 2023 by Samantha Asprelli, Give n’ Glow is on a mission to ensure that all women — regardless of their circumstances — have access to beauty and self-care. The organization provides high-quality makeup and skincare products to underserved women, recognizing that beauty is not just about appearance, but about igniting confidence and self-love.

Samantha, a third-year brand management and social innovation and entrepreneurship student at Northeastern University, launched Give n’ Glow as a way to merge beauty with philanthropy.

"At Give n’ Glow, we strive to go beyond beauty products. We want to empower women, inspire their inner glow, and create a community of support and positivity,"

She believes that access to beauty products can be a catalyst for self-confidence, empowerment, and personal growth, helping women navigate the world with renewed confidence.

A Valentine’s Day Celebration of Self-Care

For Valentine’s Day 2025, Give n’ Glow assembled 1,000 beauty kits filled with Thrive Causemetics products. These kits were distributed to 10 nonprofit organizations across Boston and beyond, serving women in shelters and transitional housing programs.

Some shelters hosted makeovers and makeup tutorials, giving women the opportunity to learn beauty techniques as an act of self-care and empowerment. Others integrated the kits into Valentine’s Day celebrations, ensuring that each woman felt loved, valued, and pampered.

Building Community Through Beauty

More than just a product donation, this initiative created a movement of giving and connection. Samantha brought together first-year Northeastern student volunteers and a women’s community-building group for newcomers to Boston, fostering a shared mission of beauty, empowerment, and kindness.

With your support, Give n’ Glow was able to make a meaningful difference in the lives of women in need. Samantha shared this heartfelt message of gratitude:

"We are beyond grateful for Thrive Causemetics for providing us with these incredible products — everyone loves them! We would not have been able to do this event without your support and generosity and are so happy that we were able to make this initiative happen! Thrive Causemetics has had such an impact on Give n' Glow—you have skyrocketed our mission."

A Shared Commitment to Giving Back

Since becoming a Thrive Causemetics Giving Partner in 2024, Give n’ Glow has expanded its impact, proving that beauty can change lives. At Thrive Causemetics, we are honored to support their mission through our Bigger Than Beauty® Giving Program, ensuring that self-care is accessible to all women, regardless of their circumstances.

This is just the beginning. Together, we will continue to bring confidence, dignity, and joy to women who need it most—one beauty kit at a time.
