In the ever-evolving world of beauty, one brand stands out not only for its commitment to cruelty-free and vegan products but also for its innovative approach to celebrating fandom culture. Laced with Cherry is a groundbreaking cosmetics brand that has taken the beauty industry by storm, catering to a niche yet passionate community of cosplayers, gamers, anime enthusiasts, and anyone who dares to embrace their inner nerd. With an array of themed cosmetics that pay homage to various elements of pop culture, Laced with Cherry offers more than just makeup—it aims to provide a platform for self-expression and storytelling.
Founded by a mother daughter duo, Laced with Cherry was born out of a desire to fill a gap in the market for high-quality, inclusive beauty products that cater to all skin tones while also resonating with fans of nerd culture. “We believe in the power of storytelling through makeup, empowering fans to embrace their unique identities,” says founder Yolanda Cayasso. This philosophy is evident in every product they create—from sparkly lip glosses in their interstellar collection that look stunning on everyone to future collaborations featuring iconic characters from beloved franchises.
The brand’s commitment to diversity and inclusion goes beyond just offering a wide range of shades. It’s about creating a sense of belonging within the beauty community for those who have often felt overlooked or marginalized by mainstream brands. By acknowledging and celebrating the diverse interests and identities of its customers, Laced with Cherry is not just selling cosmetics; it’s fostering a vibrant community where everyone feels welcome.
One of the standout features of Laced with Cherry’s product line is its cruelty-free and vegan formulation. In an industry often criticized for its ethical practices, Laced with Cherry sets itself apart by helping ensure that no animals are harmed in the creation of their products. This ethical stance aligns perfectly with the values of their target audience—individuals who are not only passionate about their fandoms but also about making conscious choices that reflect their respect for all living beings.
The aesthetic appeal and quality of Laced with Cherry’s products are matched by their versatility. Whether you’re aiming for an everyday look inspired by your favorite character or going all out for a cosplay event, there’s something in their collection for every occasion. The sparkly lip glosses from their interstellar collection have become fan favorites due to their gorgeous finish on various skin tones—a testament to the brand’s dedication to inclusivity.
Looking ahead, Laced with Cherry has exciting plans for collaboration featuring iconic characters from anime, gaming, and other facets of nerd culture. These collaborations are eagerly anticipated by fans eager to see how their favorite characters will be translated into wearable art through makeup.
Social media platforms like Instagram (@laced_with_cherry) and Facebook (@lacedwithcherry) offer glimpses into the creative process behind Laced with Cherry’s collections as well as sneak peeks at upcoming launches.
