( ENSPIRE News ) A Beauty Tribute to Historically Black Colleges and Universities
Calling all HBCU alumni and supporters! This October, The Lip Bar, the award-winning vegan beauty brand we know and love, is launching a powerful collaboration beyond beautiful lip gloss. It’s a celebration of Black education, culture, and the enduring legacy of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
Let’s face it: representation matters. In a world where young people are bombarded with images that don’t always reflect their backgrounds, HBCUs stand as beacons of excellence and pride. By supporting these institutions, brands like The Lip Bar create pathways for future generations. It’s a reminder that success can come from anywhere, and acknowledging the institutions that empower our youth is a win-win.
This collaboration is significant for The Lip Bar’s founder and CEO, Melissa Butler, a proud alumna of Florida A&M University’s School of Business and Industry. Her HBCU experience fueled her entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to creating a beauty brand that celebrates diversity. This limited-edition collection is a testament to that mission.
The Lip Bar’s HBCU Collection features seven stunning lip glosses, each representing a prestigious HBCU – Hampton University, Southern University, Tennessee State University, Howard University, Spelman College, Florida A&M University, and a special “HBCU Girly” shade for all Black colleges and universities. Each gloss is formulated with high-quality, vegan, and cruelty-free ingredients, including Vitamin E, argan oil, and coconut oil, ensuring beautiful, long-lasting shine.
The HBCU Collection is available for purchase NOW, exclusively on TheLipBar.com. Individual glosses retail for $20.00, with the complete set available for $100.00.
We’re keeping this exciting launch on your radar because it’s more than just makeup – it’s a movement. Whether you’re an HBCU grad, have a family member who is, or want to celebrate Black excellence, this collection is a powerful way to show your pride.
Let’s celebrate Black education, culture, and the future with The Lip Bar’s HBCU Collection!
