Belief-driven Beauty Buyers
“I like that we are mindful, and the next generation is even more mindful. A brand could be making a foundation that is the exact shade of your skin, but you might take a step back if that brand’s ethical values don’t align with [yours]. This is what GenZ and millennials are all about.” – Nikita Upadhyay
