Varsity Beauty is certified cruelty-free and each formula received feedback from the very athletes Varsity Spirit serves. “Our vision was to conceptualize a premium product line that resonates with athletes’ unique needs and serves them not only during performances but in their everyday lives,” Lauchaire said. “The cheer and dance spaces are so beautifully diverse, and we endeavored to ensure Varsity Beauty celebrates the individuality that sets each athlete apart and provides all athletes the chance to authentically connect with this emerging beauty brand. Varsity Beauty was developed to offer athletes high quality, top performance products, and we collaborated directly with cheer and dance athletes throughout the development process. When we say Varsity Beauty was built by athletes for athletes, we mean it, and it’s a genuine representation of our commitment to authenticity.” Varsity Beauty will be available for purchase through three avenues: onsite at select Varsity Spirit championship events, online through the Varsity Shop, and teams will be able to purchase through their Varsity Spirit Fashion Sales Rep or Varsity All Star Fashion Specialist.
