SheaMoisture has unveiled a brand campaign that heralds the beauty and resilience of Black women, one of the brand’s key consumer bases. “It Comes Naturally” is a forward-looking celebration of Black female culture and identity. Featured is the work of six Black female artists–Monica Ahanonu, Rachelle Baker, Bisa Butler, Alexis Eke, Linda Mawala, and Reyna Noriega–who were commissioned to create a distinctive campaign, portrayed in rich illustrations, that brings to life the stories, legacy, and heritage carried by Black women through the generations.
The campaign was brought to life in partnership with a collaborative creative agency team across BBDO NY and polycultural marketing firm, JOY Collective. It is the first brand work to come from this team since winning SheaMoisture in early 2020. The work was created by a dynamic team of Black and multicultural writers, artists, editors, and music composers
The work amplifies the brand’s pledge whereby every single purchase generates proceeds to be directly invested in Black women entrepreneurs.
