Loving You


This month we had the pleasure of meeting two fabulous ladies from the Buffalo City Mission, Cornerstone Manner Women and Children’s Shelter. Aubrey and Ebony came to help us plan our donation to the shelter. They are planning a special day at the shelter called “Loving You” where we will present our products to the special ladies there through an uplifting workshop we’ll be doing with all of them.

The workshop will be a combination of inspirational messages about how to value their inner beauty and importance in this world, as well as how to feel instantly beautiful by teaching them makeup techniques that they will be able to use for a lifetime. Each woman will leave with a gift bag of Ferro Cosmetics products, which we have been collecting in our ongoing in store “Throw-N-Glow” promotion.

Through the program that we created called “Throw & Glow”, we are able to donate over 120 full size Ferro Cosmetics products to the Women and Children’s Shelter. Our customers have been bringing in their makeup products, throwing them out in our poisonous trash can, and receiving a discount on new Ferro Cosmetics products. For every product thrown away, we donate a brand NEW Ferro Cosmetics mineral makeup product.
We'll be creating 60 gift bags filled with full size products for the entire face, for every woman in the program.


Confidence is a powerful tool in life, and one that we all struggle with some times in our life. But hardships in life can affect our confidence even more, and we want to help encourage and empower these very wonderful, strong, beautiful women to be the best they can be, and go after what they deserve. These activities are true extensions of what we at Ferro believe in as we state through our mission statement:

TO EMPOWER AND ENHANCE EVERY WOMANS TOTAL BEAUTY WITH PURITY, PASSION, EDUCATION AND LOVE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT BY USING ONLY NATURAL INGREDIENTS IN EVERYTHING WE CREATE, PROVIDING SUPERIOR PERSONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE AND HELPING EVERY CLIENT EXPERIENCE AS FABULOUS A FEELING ON THE INSIDE AS WE NOW SEE THEM ON THE OUTSIDE.


Cornerstone Manor Women and Children’s Shelter is a welcome relief from the uncertainties and fear homeless women and families face. For many, it’s the closest thing to home. We are so glad to be a small part of one of their days and hopefully we can help lift their spirits and touch a heart!

Here is what they say about “Loving You Day”:
Women are nurturers by nature and sometimes forget to pamper themselves. Loving You Day is an event inspired by Ferro Cosmetics, where women at Buffalo City Mission’s women and children’s ministry, Cornerstone Manner, can take a few hours from their regularly scheduled day and really focus on enhancing their womanly beauty. An astounding 1/3 of our women find a safe haven at Cornerstone Manner from domestic violence situations. At times some women find it difficult to face themselves in the mirror due to emotional and physical scars. Loving You Day is to inspire hope and that certain confidence to love you even when others do not. You must first learn to love yourself so that you can forgive yourself and begin to make positive changes that reflect such love. The women will learn proper skin care techniques and a lesson on choosing cosmetics that are clear from negative toxins and in return will promote healthy skin balance.

You would be amazed when you look at the brands thrown in our Toxic Product Trash Can once our clients learn what's in them! We have in that can, TV brand mineral makeup, Department store brands that cost someone's week's salary, and high end drugstore brands. Many of them were thought to be natural- and all of them are not!

If you'd like to help contribute and save, bring in your currently used products for evaluation, and if they are toxic, dump em and throw em, and Glow with 20% off your new Ferro Cosmetic replacement.
OR, if you'd like to donate monetary gifts to give directly to the Charity or help support extra costs and materials needed for the class, contact Krissy Ferro at krissy@ferrocosmetics.com.
