On the eve of her 68th birthday, iconic supermodel Beverly Johnson has announced that she is the new brand ambassador for Retrouvé, a luxury skincare line founded by Jami and Klaus Heidegger – the former third-generation family owners of cosmetics giant, Kiehl’s Since 1851 – and the first brand to pledge to adopt the Beverly Johnson Rule for inclusivity and equality in hiring practices. In celebration of Ms. Johnson’s birthday on October 13th, Retrouvé will donate 20% of its website sales from October 12 - October 14 to City of Hope’s Dine-in for Health Justice. Ms. Johnson is a champion of Dine-In for Health Justice at City of Hope, a world-renowned independent research and treatment center for cancer, diabetes, and other life-threatening diseases. Dine-In for Health is a month-long virtual event that kicked off on September 26th to raise awareness and funds for crucial health care issues facing communities of color. Dine-In encourages participants to organize virtual dinner parties where attendees learn about health care and are asked to contribute equal to or greater than what they would spend dining out. “We are thrilled to introduce the magnificent, brilliant, and gorgeous Beverly Johnson as our brand ambassador, and we are honored to help her to raise funds for the eradication of the racial and ethnic health disparities that undermine our communities and our health care system through the important work of City of Hope and to contribute to this important cause that is so close to Beverly’s heart,” states Ms. Heidegger.
