Lazada is dedicated to supporting female-led businesses, driving economic empowerment, and fostering gender equality in the region.
Arianne Amante, 27, has always dreamed of helping women look and feel their most beautiful. Makeup and skincare products boosted her confidence, and this inspired her to empower more Filipinas to unlock their full potential. In 2021, she launched Clocheflame, a beauty brand designed for the modern Filipina, and started selling on Lazada.
For Arianne, Clocheflame is not just about selling products, it’s also building a community of women empowering and inspiring each other. “I’m thrilled to be part of a generation where women are shaping the future. Being in the industry has also introduced me to other female sellers, and I love that we have a unique bond because, really, there shouldn’t be any competition,” she says. “Help freely, and don’t be afraid to ask for help. When we’re kind to others and ourselves, that’s when our beauty lights up.”
