ADA, Mich., January 26, 2010 — Amway Global is proud to announce that ARTISTRY® Skin Care and Cosmetics, beauty power brand of Amway Global, is the Official Skin Care and Cosmetics Provider of the Miss America Pageant. Artistry will hold the title for both the 2010 and 2011 Miss America Pageants. The sponsorship will also give the Miss America Organization the opportunity to work with the entire Amway Global family of brands.
“Partnering with the Miss America Organization is an incredible opportunity for us,” said Jori Hartwig, Vice President of Marketing at Amway Global. “As a leader in prestige beauty, Artistry is dedicated to helping women of all ages feel confident that they're putting their best face forward every day. We're excited to introduce this brand to the Miss America contestants and look forward to showing them how it can let their inner beauty shine through on their big night.”
