The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Tower 28 Beauty earns consistent press backing for its focus on sensitive-skin formulas and sustainable product launches, though its market presence remains modest compared to larger cosmetics competitors. Founder Amy Liu's mission-driven positioning resonates with reviewers, but the brand's scale and reach lag behind established players in lip care and colour cosmetics.
