Our Mission
Calista means "most beautiful" and we want women to discover and embrace their own most beautiful selves throughout all stages of life.
At Calista, it's all about how a small change (whether that be your look or your mindset) can make you feel brave about your own beauty, or as we call it, BeautyBrave.
Giving Back
Calista was created to empower women through confidence. Giving back to organizations that support women and embody our mission is close to our hearts.
We proudly founded and support the Shine Program at Penn Medicine, a nonprofit organization that supports patients living with cancer.
We also support the Maasai Cultural Exchange Project, a nonprofit providing young women of the Maasai Tribe in Kenya with education, necessities, and safety.
