Let's Get Social on Valentine's Day 💌
Just before the Valentine's Day, our Instagram community expressed their ambitions for this year. Amongst the variety of goals shared, two themes emerged - to 'experience something new' and to 'eliminate white spots'.
Here are highlights from our newsletter that was sent out today:

📺 LOOSE NUTS: The first commercial campaign for vitiligo The Pursuit went live on FOX, ABC and other major networks, voiced by Morgan Freeman. This campaign marks the introduction of the first FDA-approved prescription treatment for vitiligo.
So, let's dive into the conversation!
