A week of beauty and bonding! Last week, Spelman College partnered with The Estée Lauder Companies Charitable Foundation to host the first-ever Black Beauty STEMinist Lab Intensive.
Led by Dr. Leyte L. Winfield, a professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Spelman and the director of the College's new Cosmetic Science Program, the multi-day program aims to inspire and equip Black women with the skills and knowledge to pursue careers in the beauty and personal care sector, spotlighting the intersection of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) with beauty.
See highlights now from the intensive via Spelman's Instagram.
