WHAT MATTERS MOST

Giving Back & Getting Bold

Benefit's Bold is Beautiful Project empowers women & girls in our communities through health and wellness, education, and financial self-sufficiency. One month every year, we donate Benefit’s proceeds from global brow waxes to charities that support women, and since 2015, we’ve raised over $25 million. ​  


Our community means everything to us, and we want to lift them up as much as they lift us up.

Jean and Jane

Our Fearless
Founders​

Meet Jean & Jane Ford, two Indiana farm girls turned successful models & makeup artists. The twins moved to San Francisco in 1976 to take on a totally NEW approach to beauty. They believed laughter is the best cosmetic and turned the so-serious makeup industry on its head. Over 40 years later, we're always trying to do the twins proud by taking risks, pushing the envelope, and keeping the beauty world on its toes.

Can't Stop, Won't Stop
