As we reflect on the end of Pride month, it’s clear that Derek Warburton is an example of how far we have come with supporting the LGBTQ+ community. Mercilessly teased for his sexuality and as a cheerleader in high school, not to mention homeless,  Derek is now cheered for who he is. This support was evident by the overwhelming success of the launch of his new makeup collection Derek Fabulous for FACE Stockholm. It became an instant Hollywood hit! Celebrities, tastemakers, and even royalty are raving about the Derek Fabulous Pride Collection. Understanding the difficulties that LGBTQ+ youth face, Derek decided to donate all proceeds from the collection to GLSEN, an organization started by educators to provide needed support to LGBTQ+ students in schools across America, something we need now more than ever!
