Breaking Barriers: How privé Products and Project Beauty Share Are Fighting Hygiene Poverty

In a world where personal care is often taken for granted, millions of women and children across the U.S. struggle to access basic hygiene essentials. The impact of hygiene poverty extends far beyond personal care—it affects confidence, education, employment, and overall well-being. That’s why privé Products is proud to support Project Beauty Share (PBS) through the #privéItForward initiative, helping restore dignity to those in need.

The Reality of Hygiene Poverty

Did you know that 42 million women and 28 million children in the U.S. face daily hygiene challenges? Programs like SNAP and WIC don’t cover personal care products, leaving many without essentials like shampoo, deodorant, and menstrual products. Women also face the burden of the “Pink Tax,” paying up to 50% more for similar hygiene products compared to men. Over a lifetime, this adds up to an extra $188,000 in expenses—an unjust reality that makes basic self-care inaccessible for many.

Project Beauty Share: Restoring Dignity Through Giving

Since its founding in 2010, Project Beauty Share has distributed over 54,000 pounds of hygiene and beauty products—valued at $1.86 million—to those in need. In 2023 alone, over 65,000 individuals benefited from these donations, including single mothers and underserved communities. But the demand continues to grow, and more support is essential.
