BREAST CANCER AWARENESS
A Story of Strength, Hope & Resilience
Why This Is Personal...
In 2021, our founder, Colleen Rothschild, was diagnosed with breast cancer. This diagnosis marked the beginning of a deeply personal journey through chemotherapy and surgery.
Throughout her experience, Colleen faced challenges that shaped her perspective on life, resilience, and the importance of community and support.
Today, Colleen is in remission, and her experience continues to inspire our commitment to raising awareness, encouraging education, and supporting women navigating their own breast cancer journeys.
Supporting Women Beyond Skincare
At Colleen Rothschild Beauty, we believe in the importance of showing up for women beyond their skincare routines.
Inspired by Colleen's personal journey, we have supported organizations dedicated to breast cancer awareness, education, access to care, and providing meaningful resources to women and families navigating cancer. Organizations we've proudly supported:
Know thy boobs
Know What’s
Normal for You
Breast self-awareness means getting familiar with how your breasts or chest normally look and feel, so you can notice changes.
The NHS suggests checking about once a month. You do not need to wait for a scheduled check to report something new.
Your monthly reminder to know what's normal for you.
Breast awareness starts with understanding your body. In addition to regular doctor visits, taking time to become familiar with how your breasts normally look and feel can help you recognize changes and know when to speak with your healthcare provider.
Up & Down
Move your fingers gently up and down across the entire breast in overlapping strips, covering every area.
Circles
Use slow, circular motions to cover the whole breast, starting at the outer edge and working your way toward the center.
Wedges
Glide your fingers in straight lines from the outer edge toward the center, then back out again — like slices of a pie.

Put it on your calendar. Pick a day. Make it part of your routine. Know what's normal for you.
Awareness Is Always In Season
For us, breast cancer awareness is more than a month on the calendar. It's an ongoing commitment to sharing stories, encouraging conversations, and supporting organizations that make a difference in the lives of women.
1 in 8 women will face breast cancer in their lifetime — our mothers, sisters, daughters, and friends. And because most women diagnosed have no family history, awareness and early detection matter for everyone.
We hope Colleen's story serves as a reminder of the importance of knowing your body, advocating for your health, and supporting one another.
Breast self-awareness does not replace recommended breast cancer screenings or medical evaluations. Talk with your healthcare provider about screening recommendations and any changes you notice.
