Comments: In February, PDC brand Cantu Beauty and 25 Black Women in Beauty revealed the winners of the Cantu Elevate beauty accelerator. Those tapped—Alicia Scott of Range Beauty, Arah Sims of Kyutee Nails, and Tomi Alisha of NaturAll Club—were chosen out of more than 60 women-led beauty businesses to receive a Cantu-sponsored campaign valued at $160,000.
“With black entrepreneurs, especially women, starting businesses at a higher rate we wanted to provide a catalyst for these businesses to succeed,” said Dametria Mustin, vice president of global marketing at Cantu Beauty. “After learning more about these amazing women-led businesses, I’m inspired by what they were able to take away from the experience to help navigate the shifts taking place in the beauty industry.”
PDC has created Global PDC DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) council to oversee internal and external initiatives. The charter members are from all around the world and represent different functional areas and levels with diverse backgrounds, according to the company.
