Narrated by Keke Palmer and directed by filmmakers Kirby Dick And Amy Ziering, NOT SO PRETTY is a four-part documentary that investigates the trillion-dollar cosmetics, beauty and personal care industry.

Working on this project has certainly changed our own purchasing habits and perspectives, and we are excited to empower viewers similarly by providing them with essential information they need to know and simply cannot get anywhere else. With Keke's wit and curiosity serving as our engaging guide, our series provides viewers with shocking insights, startling revelations, and important knowledge that will help them not just look their best on the outside but also feel their best on the inside -- a win-win for not only our personal health, but the health of the planet as well."
