Sephora Black beauty is Beauty

After signing the 15% pledge, Sephora needed our help creating demand for Black-owned brands.

All we had to do was tell the truth. We created a film thesis that traced the origins of the most ubiquitous and universal tools, trends and innovations back to their Black beauty roots. It was an honor to say without hesitation or reservation what every Black person knows — we are the blueprint to culture.

Awards are nice (see below) but the most rewarding part of this project was the reception from Black Twitter.
