Celebrating Inclusivity in Beauty
QVC and HSN have deepened their commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, with a new live show, Shades of Beautiful, which features cosmetics, skincare, hair care, and other beauty products created for people of color, and suited for many skin tones and hair textures–as well as brands owned by people of color. The show premiered on HSN in February, featuring two new launches, Buttah and Urban Skin Rx, alongside existing brands Mented, Kazmaleje, MasterPeace, and Carol’s Daughter. Subsequently, Shades of Beautiful debuted on QVC on August 24, featuring Live Tinted, M.A.C, Kreyol Essence and Maison 276.
