For the first time since its founding in 1954 as a social organization, Cosmetic Executive Women (CEW) has announced an effort to increase male membership. The group, which currently boasts upwards of 3,600 executives in the beauty, cosmetics, fragrance and related industries, says the decision supports the goals of CEW’s Task Force for Advancing Women and Business.
    
“The men in the beauty industry have played an integral part in CEW’s growth by demonstrating support through their participation, attendance and sponsorship of our events and programs. It’s time to recognize their contributions and to encourage enhanced participation by them,” said CEW president Carlotta Jacobson.
