Gen Alpha is a generation that wants to create as much as they consume, and while some beauty brands invite the young, devoted members of their communities to co-create new products, Evereden is taking their involvement to another level with Generation E. This initiative granted equity to three teenage creators: Madison Rae (14), Embreigh Courtlyn (15), and Kaili Asa (17) and each will participate in not only product testing and concept development, but also limited-edition launches, community events, and they'll have their own curated collections of products on Evereden's website.
According to a 2025 survey of more than 7,000 Gen Alpha customers and their parents, Gen Alpha sees Evereden's selection as an extension of self-expression, and this initiative celebrates creativity, all while offering a sense of ownership.
