Ceremonia
Sephora’s first Latina-owned hair care brand, Ceremonia, is redefining beauty norms by centering Latinx identities and cultural rituals. Founded by Babba C. Rivera, Ceremonia focuses on clean, natural ingredients that nourish hair from within. For Latinx Heritage Month, Rivera launched a campaign celebrating diverse Latinx identities.
Inspired by cultural rituals, Ceremonia’s products like the Guava Rescue Spray and Pequi Curl Activator use powerful plants to deliver intense nutrition. Rivera emphasises the importance of scalp care with products like the Aceite de Moska Scalp Oil, promoting healthy hair growth and self-love.
