"From family and friends to colleagues, my life has been generously enriched by the relationships and experiences I've had with the LGBTQ+ community. People I love have had to navigate the difficult waters of understanding who they are while facing the prospect of mistreatment and discrimination - and yet, they persevere and sparkle, and are abundant with kindness, resilience, and empathy," shares Brittany Stewart, BURST Oral Care Co-Founder and President.

LGTBQ+ communities experience healthcare disparities across various areas of the industry, including access to adequate preventative care. BURST's mission is to make high quality oral care accessible to everyone and through this partnership with Siriano, they seek to continue the fight to demand equality, including but not limited to healthcare, and the right to live free from injustice.

"Christian was our only choice for a collaboration - we are tremendous fans of his work and were particularly inspired by his initiative to convert his atelier to produce masks during the peak of the pandemic," says Hamish Khayat, BURST Oral Care Co-Founder and CEO. "His heart for his community and humanity as a whole, is why, in short, Christian is our kind of person."

"Partnering with the BURST team has been an incredible experience. To work with a brand that understands and champions the adversities that the LGBTQ+ community faces is important to me and the work I put out into the world," says Siriano. "Raising awareness around the injustices my community faces when it comes to basic human rights, such as access to affordable healthcare, is crucial and I'm excited to shine a light on these issues during PRIDE."
