Through a deal handled with the aid of Spark Financial Holdings, RENÉE Cosmetics raises $25 million in a Series B funding round led by Evolvence India, along with Edelweiss Group and current investors Equanimity and 9Unicorns.
It strives to advance its goal of establishing RENEE Cosmetics a well-known Indian beauty brand on a worldwide scale. In just a little over two years of operations, this also results in the creation of a 100 million valuation for the brand, which includes a total of $35 million over three rounds of funding, as per reported by BW Disrupt.
With RENEE, our goal has always been to create a quality brand with innovative products that would change the perception towards using beauty products. We want to inspire our consumer’s creative side and help them celebrate their beauty through RENÉE,” said Ashutosh Valani, Co-Founder and Director at RENÉE.
He added, “What Aashka, Priyank, and I have learned in the last over two years is that it is less about creating a brand that is simple to use, that is just the table stake, but more about redefining beauty in a way that consumers are open to embracing it. With this round, our priority is to extend our product portfolio to give our consumers the comfort to be at ease with being themselves.”
