PROFILE: The Pretty Powerful Fund, launched in 2019, is the philanthropic arm of Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, a subsidiary of the Estée Lauder Companies group. The Pretty Powerful campaign predates it; Bobbi Brown’s U.K. partnership with Smart Works began in 2013. Pretty Powerful is not registered as a tax-exempt organization, so it difficult to know specifics about its grantmaking and engagements. However, the Bobbi Brown Cosmetics Company and its Pretty Powerful Fund aim to “empower women and girls beyond makeup,” appearing to support women’s and girls’ education plus economic/workforce empowerment and intersectional gender equity.
