Volition Beauty’s mission is all about collaborative and transparent innovation, but what does that actually mean? In a nutshell, Volition is an online collaborative platform where beauty enthusiasts can submit their own beauty products ideas or vote for ones already petition. Volition then works with the best labs to bring your beauty ideas into reality! What you get is new beauty products created by real people with real beauty problems.
When Volition Beauty’s site launched in 2015, they gathered hundred of ideas and had their community vote for products they really wanted to see on launch. Every Volition product was pitched by an Innovator who is a real person like you or me that thought of a great beauty product idea. Since then, the company has worked with labs to bring the 16 best ideas to life. Volition network of highly-respected chemists, R&D research labs, developers, and industry veterans in the cosmetics industry ensures significant experience in formulating beauty products. From concept, design, formula, and marketing you can feel quite confident in Volition Beauty’s execution in providing quality beauty products.
Behind every Volition product is an Innovator who comes up with a beauty product idea to tackle a real beauty problem. Often the problem comes with a real story. I got to try five of the starter products from the August 8th launch at Sephora.com (and soon to a Sephora store near you!) and boy am I excited! The products I received were voted by the community in 2015 and are now available for purchase at your local Sephora!
