From the National Football League to the Roomba, unless you live under a rock you're well aware that October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

The beauty industry has been key in bringing breast cancer awareness to light, thanks to pioneering brands like Estee Lauder, which helped to put the charity on the map when Evelyn Lauder created the Estee Lauder Companies' Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign in 1992.

We've got a round up this years top BCA products, below, that help you donate and beautify at the same time.

One of the most stylish offerings is Avon's Crusade Tote, $10, left. Created by Finnish designer Marimekko exclusively for Avon, 100% of the proceeds from this cotton canvas tote are donated to the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade, which has raised more than $600 million globally for breast cancer research and treatment.
