What happens when a nonprofit and a major beauty brand come together to change the narrative on the deeply ingrained biases surrounding facial differences? 

You’re about to learn how a BOLD vision turned a dream collaboration with Sephora UK into reality with Phyllida Swift, CEO of Face Equality International. 

Phyllida starts by sharing her incredible story of resilience and strength after a car accident. The important work she does today stands at a unique intersection of human rights, disability policy, and representation.

Phyllida breaks down the Face Equality International ambassador program, how they attracted creators like British YouTuber Nikki Lilly, the challenges of navigating tokenism in brand partnerships, and how nonprofits can leverage creators to amplify their mission, too.

Then we dig into Phyllida’s favorite takeaways from their powerful “My Face Is a Masterpiece” campaign with Sephora UK, which included in-store events and training initiatives for beauty professionals, creating a beautiful conversation around beauty and identity.
