Peter Thomas Roth to Donate Proceeds from These Products for Pride

Christopher Ehlers READ TIME: 6 MIN.

Clinical skincare giant Peter Thomas Roth has unveiled a new initiative to help give back to the LGBTQ+ community this June.

Each week, 50% of net proceeds from a specific product will be donated to The Ali Forney Center, an organization that works to protect LGBTQ+ youths in New York City from the harms of homelessness.

Here are the Pride Month products, with the proceeds from that week's sales being donated:

June 1-7

Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Rich Barrier Moisturizer

One of the brand's newest innovations, this moisturizer drenches your skin in moisture while enforcing the delicate–and vital–skin barrier. Not only does an innovative Moisture Barrier Boosting Complex help increase the look of skin thickness, firmness, and elasticity, but hyaluronic acid and HydraFence provide 120 hours of enhanced hydration. $58, Peter Thomas Roth.

June 8-14

Max Clear Invisible Priming Sunscreen SPF 45

Any sunscreen that's completely clear is a win for people who hate applying sunscreen. Not only is this sunscreen invisible, but it can also serve as an effective makeup primer, and also improves the look of uneven texture and tone with Vitamin E, shea butter, and bisabolol. $38, Peter Thomas Roth.

June 15-21

Even Smoother Glycolic Retinol Resurfacing Peel Pads

This intensive nighttime treatment is saturated with a high-potency 20% Glycolic Acid Complex and a 1.5% time-released microencapsulated retinol. Together, these two ingredients will improve texture, clarity, tone, fine lines, and wrinkles. Despite the hefty dose of glycolic acid, this peel remains soothing and non-drying thanks to the microencapsulated retinol (which bursts gradually all night long) and the addition of allantoin, adenosine, and hyaluronic acid. $52, Peter Thomas Roth.

June 22-28

Instant FirmX No-Filter Primer

This primer not only provides instant tightening, firming, and blurring capabilities, but it also reduces the look of fine lines, pores, and imperfections. The brand's proprietary ingredient, BarPull, also hydrates the skin and provides long-term anti-aging benefits, while another PTR invention, Elastiflex IQ, improves elasticity over time. In short, not only does this primer offer immediate benefits, but also long-term. $42, Peter Thomas Roth.

June 29-30

Cucumber Gel Mask

One of the best masks on the market, this ultra-gentle, soothing mask is infused with botanical extracts of cucumber, papaya, chamomile, pineapple, sugar maple, sugarcane, orange, lemon, bilberry, and aloe vera. The reason it's so great is that it's suitable for all skin types for an array of concerns like hydration, redness, and sunburn, in addition to after care for peels, waxing, facials, extractions, and shaving. It's so gentle you can even sleep with it on. $55, Peter Thomas Roth.
