Underwear brand Boody turns pink for Cancer Awareness Month

This month, sustainable underwear brand Boody is helping us get some cute and fun underwear while also supporting the breast cancer charity the McGrath Foundation.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and in Australia, one in seven women are diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, and breast cancer diagnoses have increased by 33% in the last 10 years.

On top of 100% of profits going to the McGrath Foundation, Boody will also use the campaign to help raise awareness and donations for breast cancer causes this October, as Australia prepares to "go pink" for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

This is the second year that Boody has officially partnered with the McGrath Foundation and for 2022, the brand has produced three of its best-selling underwear products in McGrath pink.

The Classic Bikini ($15.95) is comfortable and seam-free for ensuring no visible panty line, and gives good coverage.

And the Original Boxer ($18.95) will make sure your significant other not only looks good but is supported and comfortable.

All of these are available in the striking pink hue until the end of October.

Why people love Boody

The Boody website is full of glowing reviews from women sharing their love for the natural softness, breathability and comfort of its bamboo bras following breast cancer-related surgeries.

In fact, bamboo is one of the most soothing fabrics to wear while recovering from surgery or having chemotherapy and radiation treatment.

The fabric is naturally antibacterial so it can be worn against the skin without risking infection, it wicks moisture away from the skin and absorbs excess perspiration (a side effect of cancer-related hormone treatments) and it is super soft and kind to even the most sensitive skin.

Which is why Boody's association with the McGrath Foundation is so important.
