In addition, the brand is also used by professionals such as aestheticians, dermatologists, plastic surgeons, professional spas and salons.

“To take the company to the next level, I knew we needed a partner with a proven track record in beauty who would be a good steward to our brand and company,” said Jane Iredale in a press release. “Based on their experience working with leading authentic natural brands, SFEP is the ideal partner to guide us through the next phase.

San Francisco Equity Partners, a private equity firm focused on expansion-stage companies in the consumer sector, counts skincare brand Yes To, cosmetics label Japonesque, and home care brand Method Products among its partner companies.
