Learn about one of our April GLOSSYBOX 'Woke Up in Spring' brand features: Kawaii Girl Cosmetics!
About the Brand
Kawaii Girl Cosmetics is a Black-owned, woman-owned, Leaping Bunny Certified cosmetics line that was inspired by founder Dorian Smith-Garcia’s obsession with finding the perfect pair of flutter lashes and richly pigmented color cosmetics that are bold on darker skin tones. Thanks to her professional life in the entertainment industry, and her background as a beauty influencer, Dorian constantly travels to Tokyo where she was greatly influenced by Japanese skincare, beauty brands and trends.Armed with her appreciation of Kawaii culture and passion for makeup, Dorian created
Kawaii Girl Cosmetics. The line launched in January 2017 and exclusively featured lashes in their debut collection. Today, KGC has expanded into color cosmetics and will be debuting beauty tools in 2021.
