Celebrating the launch of UOMA by Sharon C for Walmart is the biggest launch for Walmart.

For Sharon ChuterFounder & Creative Director of the black-owned beauty brand, UOMA Beauty, it's a dream come true for her and her community.  The reason it's the biggest launch, according to Sharon, it's inclusive for everyone and anyone and all budgets, a big deal for Walmart, https://www.walmart.com/cp/2225849

The highest price is 20% Vitamin C serum, Uoma By Sharon C, Supa' Natural Glow Serum, https://www.walmart.com/ip/Uoma-By-Sharon-C-Supa-Natural-Glow-Serum-Supa-C10/936581069?selected=true, between  $17.98 and $23.98.  Sharon said that it is unusual to have a high concentration of vitamin C at those price points.

Listed by WWD as one of the "50 most forward-thinking executives shaping the future of the beauty industry," Nigerian born Sharon Chuter, CEO, Founder & Creative Director of the black-owned beauty brand, UOMA Beauty, is a rebel with a cause and on a mission to go off the well-beaten path to redefine the rules of inclusivity and diversity. Bringing bold new ideas to an industry stuck in its ways, Chuter is revolutionizing the beauty world as the founder of two wildly successful viral initiatives, Pull Up For Change and Make it Black, which spotlight the need for increased representation in corporate America and supports Black founders through small business impact funds. In the wake of Black Lives Matter protests, #PullUpForChange asked companies to share the number of Black employees on their payrolls in the act of transparency and unity.


Bravo's Top Chef, Nyesha Arrington, beauty and food is synonymous. She makes her own charcoal coconut toothpaste, mixing activated charcoal with coconut oil.  She also makes seaweed toner.
