Kay Beauty has been created with this same rigour, asking a very demanding question - how can we get more out of makeup? The answer that the collection offers is a unique formula of makeup products that are long-lasting and ultra-glam, and that cares for your skin. Each product is infused with ‘kare’ ingredients so that you can indulge in makeup without any guilt. It was also very important for me that the collection was versatile enough to cater to different skin tones, ages and emotions. With the range of shades and buildable formulas, every woman can find their look, whether it’s quick glam or ultra-luxe. I’ve taken all the knowledge I’ve gained in my career and put it into these products. I hope that they give you the tools to explore your creativity and celebrate your own unique idea of beauty.”

The campaign resonates with the core idea behind the brand and has received a positive response from the audiences. The brand encourages women to grow beyond their fear of judgement and accept themselves in their pure beautifully flawed form. It stresses on the fact that “….either way, it’s kay to be you.”
