Kenya’s Number one body lotion, Nice & Lovely has launched a limited-edition lotion that is aimed at promoting girl-child education in the country, in partnership with Sky Girls Kenya.

 The new lotion targets high school teenage girls during their back-to-school. 

Speaking during the launch, L’Oreal Managing Director, Serge Sacre said a campaign has been launched where for every purchase made for the lotion, Ksh. 5 will be chanelled towards a donation for the girls to stay in school.

This is to ensure they are able to access education without struggle.

“For every purchase made on the limited edition lotion, five shillings will be channeled towards the donations to ensure every girl child stays in school. This will give each person a chance to directly take part in ensuring all girls stay in school and have access to education,” he stated.

He said it will help curb teenage pregnancies as seen in the past two years during the covid-19 Pandemic.

Close to 200,000 teenage pregnancies were reported in 2020 alone.

“We would like to have this partnership ensure that more girls are given a chance to realize their dreams, especially after the impact that COVID-19 has had contributing to early pregnancies and marriages, with parents lacking school fees,” he added

 The lotion aims at changing the experiences of school-going teenage girls by donating school fees.

The company would donate money from the lotions to help keep girls in school.

According to the iconic beauty brand, the partnership will also work on bringing out the confidence and individuality in the teenage girls while having them remain true to themselves.

“We work to inspire young girls to stay true to their values, and what they care about, helping them resist peer pressure. We aim to increase girls’ confidence, self-reflection, decision-making, and refusal skills so that they can make positive choices that are true to themselves,” concluded Svetlana Polikarpova, Director & Co-Founder of Tandem Agency in charge of Sky Girls Kenya during the ceremony held in Nairobi on Friday.
