#I WILL NOT BE DELETED
Global beauty company Coty, led by its cosmetics brand Rimmel London, has launched its purpose led campaign #I WILL NOT BE DELETED to raise awareness of the growing problem of beauty cyberbullying and tackle the societal issues that stop people of all ages from feeling unable to fully express themselves on social media due to fear of negative commentary or retribution – a key reason people delete social media posts or profiles. Brand ambassadors, as well as senior members of the global team and charity partner The Cybersmile Foundation have highlighted the importance and scale of the issue whilst sharing their own personal experiences. Rimmel research has revealed that one in four women have experienced beauty cyberbullying, resulting in 115 million social media images being deleted each year. Sara Wolverson, Rimmel Global Marketing Vice President at Coty reiterated Rimmel’s clear purpose of championing self-expression in beauty. She added, “Rimmel has always been against narrow definitions of beauty and people being judged because of the way they look. The brand wants to inspire people to experiment and express their authentic selves with make-up. It wants to contribute solutions that can positively impact prejudice and discrimination that stand in the way of self-expression and to raise awareness to affect positive changes in behaviour.”
