On Thursday, March 26 from 1-2 p.m. EST, Ahava US and several of its beauty partners will be hosting an #AhavaSkincare “Twitter Party.” We’re planning to crash the party with the truth about Ahava and its occupation profiteering.
Ahava Dead Sea Laboratories is an Israeli cosmetics company that has been the target of an international boycott campaign since 2009 because of its illegal practices. The company’s primary manufacturing facility and visitors center are located in an illegal Israeli settlement in the occupied West Bank. It pillages mud from occupied shores for use in its products. Further, it labels its goods “Product of Israel” when they are in fact made in the occupied West Bank. Check out more info about Ahava and the ongoing boycott campaign.

You can send also a note to Nancy to be added to the Stolen Beauty online action team. You will get detailed information on our culture jam, and will be on our list for future online actions. THANK YOU!
We think occupation profiteering is ugly. There is nothing festive, pretty or fun about stealing other people’s land and resources. Thanks for being part of the team working to take the profit out of occupation.
