Cashew + Antioxidants, Almonds and Apricots in Yogurt, Dark
Chocolate Nuts & Sea Salt and Pomegranate Blueberry Pistachio +
Antioxidants – and a portion of the sales of the cube will help

promoting press freedom worldwide by defending the rights of
journalists to report the news without fear of reprisal.
- The Bobbi Brown Eat Pretty Powerful Cube was
curated by Bobbi to empower women to embrace and enhance their
unique beauty, not only through the makeup they wear, but also the
ways they choose to live, eat and give back.
The Bobbi Brown Eat Pretty Powerful Cube features Bobbi's
four favorite flavors – Dark Chocolate Nuts & Sea Salt, Cashew
& Ginger Spice, Dark Chocolate
Cinnamon Pecan, and Madagascar Vanilla Almond – and a portion of
sales of the cube will help KIND fund a new KIND Kitchen at the

New York City's most vulnerable
young people to graduate with Regents diplomas.

health organization in Alzheimer's care and support, and the

"It was great partnering with KIND at the HuffPost Oasis to
highlight the health benefits of unplugging and recharging. And I'm
delighted to continue acting on our shared principles of healthy
living, especially when it can benefit a great cause like the
Committee to Protect Journalists," said Arianna.
"There's a lot more to beauty than what we apply to our face.
Like KIND, I believe that it's about how you treat your body and
what you put in it. When you eat healthy, it shows: your skin looks
clearer, your eyes look brighter and you have more energy. It's as
simple as that," explained Bobbi.
"I fell in love with KIND bars the moment I first met
them! With my busy touring schedule, it is extremely important
to have snacks that I can take with me anywhere, and that give me
the energy I need on stage night after night. The simple idea
of whole healthful foods in a delicious little package is
music to my ears! KIND is always my go-to," said Grace.
Elle Stassen of KIND shares, "we
are pleased and appreciative to have these partners on board for
our first ever Snack & Give Back campaign, as they are
each exemplary role models for what healthy living, eating, and
giving should look like."
The limited edition cubes are available for $42.95 on www.SnackandGiveBack.co.
