NEW YORK, Dec 1, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- eos Products is proud to partner once again with (RED) in its fight against AIDS and efforts to raise funds for prevention, treatment, counseling, testing and care services in sub-Saharan Africa.
Throughout the year, eos will support (RED) with its special edition (eos)RED lip balm to raise funds and awareness in the fight against AIDS. This year, as part of the fifth annual (RED) SHOPATHON, eos and (RED) are launching an interactive, shoppable AR Snapchat lens with the goal of reaching new, broader audiences and raising awareness of this preventable and treatable disease.
"We're excited about activating on Snapchat and developing our first lens in partnership with (RED)," said eos Chief Marketing Officer, Soyoung Kang. "Through our presence on the platform, we hope to generate more awareness and engage a wider audience in this important conversation of how to end HIV/AIDS."
Commencing December 1st on World AIDS Day, consumers will open the Snapchat app to experience the exclusive (eos)RED Pomegranate Raspberry lip balm; from there they can swipe up to shop the product directly from Amazon.com/RED. The activation will run through December 10th, and eos will donate 15% of the retail price of each lip balm, up to $100,000, to the Global Fund to fight AIDS. Additionally, eos participated in the first ever Amazon Live "Make it (RED)" show, bringing further awareness to (RED)'s fight to end AIDS.
