UPDATE: Sephora reached out to clarify that the training is not a direct response to the SZA news.
The “We Belong to Something Beautiful” campaign has been in the works for at least a year, including planning for inclusivity workshop for several months. "We Belong to Something Beautiful" builds on the many diversity and inclusion programs that have existed at Sephora since its inception. This is a proactive message to support Sephora’s new manifesto and commitment.
