[LIVE TINTED](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/huestick-complexion-stick), a beauty brand founded by industry changemaker Deepica Mutyala, recently launched its 'It Feels Good to Be See' campaign and its first-ever TV commercial. The ad highlights the inclusive ethos that has been central to the company's mission and its message is strengthened by a comprehensive 360-degree strategy that includes [influencer and celebrity makeup artist collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milani-cosmetics-and-the-lipstick-lesbians), as well as in-store displays.

The 'It Feels Good to Be See' campaign centers around the emotional journey of a woman of color who, as a child, struggled to find makeup that matched her skin tone. This personal narrative reflects a broader issue in the beauty industry and aims to emphasize the importance of representation and inclusion. This campaign not only serves as a marketing tool for LIVE TINTED's new products, including the Legacy collection but also showcases a partnership with [Ulta Beauty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-joy-project).
