Happy Pride month! We celebrate Pride this month to commemorate the Stonewall Riots that happened in June of 1969. This was in response to a police raid at the Stonewall Inn in New York City. The uprising marked a turning point in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights. Now we celebrate all the progress the queer community has made in the world. Here 15 makeup looks to wear at this year’s Pride parade.
