The value of the beauty industry, according to research and markets, was 460 billion USD in 2014 and is estimated to reach 675 billion USD by 2020, growing at a rate of 6.4%. Of the cosmetic products, skin care has the highest market share while oral cosmetics would be the fasted growing market during the forecasted period.

As we have seen over recent years the cosmetic industry is expanding globally and the private label sector is taking a big proportion of the industry. As a woman at the heart of what is going on and keeping an eye on emerging markets and declining areas, I recognise and understand that beauty is innovation.

The increase of beauty growth is driven by demographics, new products, dynamic distribution channels, technologies and formulations. The leading motivator is always the innovative thinker focused on beauty products.

This month we take look at brands, companies and beauty influencers who are contributing to the global cosmetic sector and are shaping the beauty care industry.

On a a final note, we value our readership feedback and this is why ICN magazine exists. Feel free to email us with any ideas or suggestions as we look to move forward together.

I hope you enjoy this month's issue. Hope to see you in the future.

Los Angeles Jury Awards Record $18M Cosmetic Talc Mesothelioma Verdict

A

Los Angeles jury has returned a record $18.07 million verdict against asbestos-containing talc supplier Whittaker Clark & Daniels for its role in causing California political figure Philip Depoian's mesothelioma cancer. The jury verdict is the largest award on record for a mesothelioma claim linked to cosmetic talc exposure, according to trial lawyers at Dallas-based Simon Greenstone Panatier Bartlett, PC. The jury reached its verdict on Oct. 19 following six weeks of trial.

A second phase for punitive damages was set to resume before the sole remaining defendant – talc supplier Whittaker, Clark & Daniels – reached a confidential settlement on Oct. 26. In agreeing to the settlement, Whittaker, Clark & Daniels avoided the prospect of additional penalties based on the jury's finding that it had acted with malice in marketing its talc as asbestos-free without adequately testing the substance.

Turkish barcode rule poses challenge for cosmetics SMEs

T

urkey’s new Regulation requiring all cosmetics products to have barcodes in order for authorities to enforce tighter market controls is putting a strain on SMEs. Turkey aligned its cosmetics legislation with the EU’s in 2005, making changes in 2012. The mandatory online notification system, based on product barcodes, was enforced in March this year. The health ministry’s medicines and medical devices agency (TITCK) requires every cosmetic product sold in Turkey to be registered with a barcode to its new product tracking system (UTS).

“There is a ‘no barcode, no market’ rule,” one senior industry representative says.

While Turkish cosmetic brands sold at retail stores already have barcodes, internet and door-to-door sales represent a large share of the market, he says.

Officials say barcodes will help them enforce the law and curb illegal activity in the cosmetics sector.

Lush Cosmetics Launches A New Bath Bomb For A Good Cause

L

ush Cosmetics introduces its new limited-edition bath bomb called Great Bear Bath Bomb. The inspiring thing about purchasing the cute bath bomb is that the proceeds are going to a good cause. The cause is part of Lush Cosmetics' huge campaign, "Ban The Trophy Hunt." The campaign is for supporting and protecting the bears all over North America.

Hello Giggles reported that 100% of the sales proceeds will be forwarded to the brand's Grizzly Grants fund, which will be escalated to different organizations that protect grizzly bears in the United States. Great Bear Bath Bomb is available from November 1 to 9 in stores as well as online. The product costs $7. Lush Cosmetics' Great Bear Bath Bomb has a

scent of cypress, rosewood and oakmoss.

First Dior Makeup Boutique Opens In New York

Located in the iconic Oculus of the Westfield World Trade Center in lower Manhattan, this boutique has been conceptualized to be Dior’s number-one beauty point of sale as well as number one in makeup.

Sephora Launches Augmented Reality Makeup Artist

M

akeup retailer Sephora has teamed up with augmented reality technology company ModiFace to develop a virtual “Sephora Visual Artist” that styles shoppers’ makeup without them having to leaving their computer screen.

And it is the amazing design of the Oculus, that has won over the brand’s descision to debut its one-of-a-kind concept boutique in New York. WWD reports that the 650-square-foot shop was designed to exude an ambiance of backstage in a fashion show with a large floor-to-ceiling video screen, flashy photographs and six work stations. Just like all Dior makeup, which is inspired and directly developed from backstage.

The application, which operates through Facebook Messenger, allows users to upload a photo of themselves to the virtual “Sephora Visual Artist”chat bot.

After directing customers to the most compatible shade of makeup for them, it then suggests products in Sephora’s inventory that they might want to purchase.

While a staff of makeup artists will offer customers professional services like lash and brow styling, as well as facial makeup, clients will also be indulged in innovative experiences as many digital activities are scheduled to take place inside and outside the boutique. Dior make up shopping gets more easy-to-decide as Mix & Match, a video table, allows a shopper to change colors on the hands and lips of a model pictured on a screen by laying down a lipstick or nail enamel.

In that way, the platform allows users to receive the same service they’d receive from a sales representative in a Sephora store, without leaving the comfort of their homes. Considering a significant portion of the company’s target market prefers to shop online and is highly active on social media, rolling out the application on Facebook Messenger was a no-brainer.

BATH & SHOWER

Science Proves That Bubble Baths Are Best For whatever reason, the acceptability of bubble baths gets thrown out with the bath water as you get older. When you’re a child, it’s fine. When you’re an adult, it’s either considered unsanitary or childish. Well guess what bubble bath bashers? If you’re going to take a bath, a bubble bath is better, scientifically.

The question of bubble baths’ superiority was put to The Naked Scientists, which hinged on the insulating properties of the bubbles.

If the bubbles can keep the bath warmer for longer — the argument goes — putting bubbles in a bath is always the better option.

According to the physics, the answer is clear: air is a wonderful insulator, and so a thick layer of air trapped inside soap should keep more heat in the tub for longer. The Naked Scientists confirmed this, though they noted that most of the heat lost during a bath isn’t through the interaction between water surface and air, but through the walls of the tub (cast iron tubs suffer especially).

One of the scientists even confirmed the assertion with an experiment. Filling two identical bowls with an identical amount of water, he measured the temperature over time for each, one covered with a layer of bubbles, one without suds. The results are below:

Japanese Store Sells Ramen-Scented Bath Powder Village Vanguard, a Japanese online store, has come out with a range of bath powders which have scents that are redolent of popular dishes within the country. Customers have a choice of six bath powder scents: miso soup, ramen, gyudon, curry, Korean hot pot, and Japanese yakisoba. According to multiple reports, the product’s packaging looks “deceptively like food” with snapshots of the dish on the wrapper.

The actual product itself is sprinkled into water to create a broth-like appearance.

The product’s packaging warns customers that its use could make the bather hungry. One can only assume that the side-effect of such bath powders include increased weight. At first glance, a curry or ramen fragrance may not be the most appetizing option for a bath. However, research firm Euromonitor International stated earlier this year that there was a "growing trend" for bath products that "do more than simply clean."

As you can see in the graph above, the water with the layer of bubbles lost less heat over time, almost 50 percent less. And because this small scale result should scale up, that means a bubble bath should stay hotter, longer. Superiority confirmed, because science.

18

Within the bath additive industry, consumers were interested in mineral-rich salts. And so it is that the Yunessen Spa House offers ramen-flavored bath with collagen (to improve skin tone and texture) added to the pork broth.

BODY CONTOURING market worth $1.1 Billion by 2022 Global Analysis and Market Forecasts research report published

by RnRMarketResearch.com reveals that Body Contouring Market growth will occur across the 15 major markets (15MM) of the US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK, Japan, China, India, Brazil, Australia, Canada, Mexico, Russia, and South Korea, will be driven by rising obesity rates, increasing numbers of men seeking cosmetic procedures, and advancement in the availability and quality of non-surgical procedures.

C

ompanies discussed in this research report are Alma Lasers, Cutera, CynoSure, DEKA, Invasix Aesthetic Solutions, Lumenis, Syneron Candela, Solta Medical, Venus Concept and Zeltiq.

The global obesity epidemic is significantly increasing the number of people seeking body contouring procedures. Despite the fact that it is recommended to only use the procedures as a method to remove small pockets of fat, people continue to look for easier alternatives to diet and exercise for reducing their body fat content and are increasingly turning to body contouring.

International Cosmetics News | October 2016

As this trend for a quick fix escalates, so does the size of the non-invasive body contouring market, which is another major driver of the overall body contouring market. The non-invasive segment is not in direct competition with the existing invasive or minimally invasive body contouring market. While some patients choose to try non-invasive methods first, the non-invasive or non-surgical trend is primarily driven by patients who would otherwise not undergo any form of fat reduction or body contouring. For patients with an aversion for unnecessary surgery, fear of surgical complications, or financial restrictions, non-surgical options overcome all of these factors deterring patients from seeking body contouring treatments.

Alongside the advantages of non-surgical body contouring, a growing number of men seeking aesthetic treatments are also pushing up procedure volumes. The number of men who underwent non-invasive body contouring treatments in the US increased from 14,598 in 2012 to 26,902 by 2015, an annual increase of 22.6%. In 2015, 16.7% of non-surgical fat reduction procedures were performed on men in the US, with similar trends being seen in other 15MM countries as well.

Scope of this research is Competitive assessment: Currently marketed body contouring devices and evolving

Alongside the advantages of non-surgical body contouring, a growing number of men seeking aesthetic treatments are also pushing up procedure volumes. The number of men who underwent non-invasive body contouring treatments in the US increased from 14,598 in 2012 to 26,902 by 2015, an annual increase of 22.6%.

What is Body contouring?

Body contouring is an aesthetic treatment option for patients with unwanted fat deposits, cellulite, or skin laxity. With increasing global rates of obesity and high body mass indexes (BMIs), patients are seeking alternatives to traditional diet and exercise to reduce their waistline and achieve their ideal body image. This market is very competitive, with dozens of companies on the international front, and several smaller local companies competing for market share. The non-invasive body contouring market is growing rapidly and is opening the body contouring industry to a much wider group of patients, specifically those who were not interested in elective surgery but are more than willing to consider these non-surgical alternatives.

The body contouring market includes both minimally invasive and non-invasive devices. The minimally invasive device market includes Laser Assisted Liposuction (LAL) devices, Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) devices, Radio Frequency Assisted Liposuction (RFAL) devices, and Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction (UAL) devices. The non-invasive market includes Radio Frequency (RF) energy devices, High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) devices, and cryolipolysis devices.

Date rape nail varnish set for 2017 release STUDENTS DEVELOP NAIL POLISH ATTRACTS $5.5M OF INVESTMENTS When’s the last time you got a manicure that could also prevent date rape? The likely answer is never. But four college students claim they’ve come up with a way to do just that.

Undergraduate students at North Carolina State University – Ankesh Madan, Stephen Grey, Tasso Von Windheim and Tyler Confrey-Maloney – created a nail polish called “Undercover Colors” that changes color in the presence of common date rape drugs like Rohypnol, Xanax, and GHB (GammaHydroxybutyric acid).

To see if one of the drugs has been slipped into her drink, a woman has to stir it with her finger. Not exactly discreet (or good manners, or very hygienic), but arguably more stylish than similar inventions, like 26

these coasters, cups and straws, that do the same thing.

“We wanted to focus on preventive solutions, especially those that could be integrated into products that women already use,” Madan told Higher Education Works in June. “All of us have been close to someone who has been through the terrible experience [of date rape], and we began to focus on finding a way to help prevent the crime.”

A change in colour indicates that your drink has been spiked Critics says the clever concept and good intentions don’t add up to a product that actually empowers women. The blog Feministing pointed out that date rape drugs “are not used to facilitate sexual

assault all that often. While exact estimates vary, it’s safe to say that plain old alcohol is the substance most commonly used in drug-facilitated rape.”

“Well-intentioned products like anti-rape nail polish can actually end up fueling victim blaming,” wrote Tara Culp-Ressler of Think Progress.

“Any college students who don’t use the special polish could open themselves up to criticism for failing to do everything in their power to prevent rape.”

After receiving $5.5m worth of investment nail-tech company Undercover Colors has alluded that it could finally be for sale in 2017. At the moment, it is believed that the wearable tech will be able to detect common date rape drugs such as Rohypnol and ecstasy.

THE DOCTOR BEHIND 10,000+ SUCCESSFUL RESTORATION PROCEDURES DEBUNKS THE BIGGEST MISPERCEPTIONS From Brian Urlacher's new look to pills that promise to stimulate hair growth, hair restoration has been a big headline in 2016, triggering lots of questions from consumers about how the process really works and, more importantly, if it can work for them.

"There's a tremendous need for education about what hair restoration is and isn't. After all, more than 70 percent of men and 45 percent of women will experience hair loss during their lives," said Dr. Arthur Katona, founder of RESTORE and doctor who performed Urlacher's procedure. "For many people, balding is about more than just losing hair. It can have a huge impact on self-confidence and self-worth."

RESTORE and Dr. Katona have completed more than 10,000 procedures in his 15-year career, specializing in an advanced procedure called Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), which uses precise equipment to safely and comfortably remove individual hair follicles from the back of the head and implant them into the balding areas, leaving a scarfree result that uses no scalpels during the outpatient procedure.

WHILE WORKING WITH PATIENTS OVER THE YEARS, KATONA HAS NOTICED FIVE PROMINENT MYTHS ABOUT HAIR RESTORATION: There is only one solution to hair loss.

Medical doctors and scientists are continuously working on, and improving, oral and topical solutions for hair loss, but we haven't yet reached the point where the issue can be permanently solved with a pill or serum. For permanent results, there are multiple types of hair

restoration procedures being practiced from a traditional strip method to more modern techniques, like FUE. Your decision is determined by price range, amount of hair needed and what type of look you are seeking.

You can go from completely bald to a full head of hair. No doctor in the business

would recommend a total hair restoration because the results would simply look unnatural. Instead, your doctor will recommend the amount of hair to transplant based on an individual consultation and the availability of healthy hair follicles. Remember, at the end of the day, hair restoration is about giving a person the confidence in his or her own

appearance, something that losing your hair can take away. It is also important to realize that the results are going to take at least a year to show.

Hair procedures are painful. With a procedure like FUE, pain is minimal.

You'll receive a local anesthetic during the procedure and while there may be

short-term discomfort afterwards, it will be manageable with over-the-counter ibuprofen or acetaminophen. If you choose another option, like the strip method, pain management may be more intensive, as there is cutting and stitching involved.

Hair procedure = scarring. While no doctor can promise a completely scar-free procedure, the industry has come a really long way. The FUE method has reduced scarring to an absolute minimum because the procedure and the tools are so precise and there are no scalpels used in the procedure.

There is only one solution to hair loss. Medical doctors and scientists are continuously working on, and improving, oral and topical solutions for hair loss, but we haven't yet reached the point where the issue can be permanently solved with a pill or serum.

You should wait until you are severely balding to take action. Actually, you should seek medical advice as soon as you notice an issue.

You might not be ready for a hair transplant at that point, but the doctor could talk through the options for different preventative measures. The sooner you can make a plan to stop or reduce your hair loss, the bigger the potential you have for keeping more of your hair long term.

"You simply don't have to live with balding anymore," Katona said. "If your hair loss is really affecting you, then learn about your options and find a solution. There is no reason today's man should go without knowing the options available to them."

Headquartered in Oakbrook, Illinois, RESTORE is transforming how people think about and approach hair restoration.

A pioneer in Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), the RESTORE team has perfected the use of precise methods and instruments to treat more than 10,000 patients worldwide with a 99.9 percent satisfaction rate. For more information, visit www.restorehair.com 30

RESEARCH

Deodorants and Antiperspirants Market Set to Grow Exponentially INCREASING POPULATION COUPLED WITH INCREASING DISPOSABLE INCOME IN THE DEVELOPING COUNTRIES SUCH AS INDIA AND CHINA IS EXPECTED TO DRIVE THE GLOBAL DEODORANTS AND ANTIPERSPIRANTS MARKET. Deodorant is a substance that is applied to the body parts to prevent body odor that is majorly caused by the bacterial breakdown of perspiration in major body parts such as armpits, feet and other areas of the body.

Antiperspirants are regarded as sub category of deodorant. Deodorants and antiperspirants contain ingredients that can control sweat and body odour safely and effectively coming from body parts. Antiperspirants not only affect the odor of the body, also reduces sweating by affecting sweat glands.

Antiperspirants are majorly applied to the underarms of the body, where as deodorants can also be applied to the feet and other body parts as body spray. Deodorants and antiperspirants are mostly confused as similar product, but both differ in function and application.

Antiperspirants control sweating and body odour in two different steps.

Firstly it prevents sweat reaching the skin surface, and secondly it eliminates the bacteria that causes body odour as it contain antimicrobial agent as its major ingredient. On the other hand, deodorants only contain antimicrobial agents that prevent body odour coming from different part of the body, but are unable to control the flow of sweat. There is one similarity between both deodorants and antiperspirants that both contain 38

fragrances which helps in keeping body odour away from the body.

Antiperspirant contains aluminum salt, which when applied on the body part dissolves in the sweat or moisture on the skin and forms a gel. This gel creates a temporary barrier near the sweat gland and prevents or reduces the amount of sweat to flow from the body part.

Antiperspirants and deodorants contain many ingredients that can minimize sweating, keeping the individuals feel fresh throughout the day. Alcohol, aluminum salts, antimicrobials, fragrance and skin conditioners, carrier substances, parabens and propellants are some of the ingredients used to manufacture deodorants and antiperspirants that helps in keeping the sweat and body odour away from the body.

On the bases of function the global deodorants and antiperspirants market can be bifurcated into aerosol sprays, creams, roll-on and gel. These products are known differently in different regions. In the European countries these are popularly used as aerosol sprays and roll-on and in the U.S. these are used as solid and gel form.

North America has the largest market for deodorants and antiperspirants, followed

by Europe and Asia Pacific. The U.S. is the largest consumer of deodorants and antiperspirants. North America is expected to maintain its dominance in the forecasted period, with Europe showing average growth. However, Asia Pacific region is expected to witness highest growth in the coming future. Increasing domestic demand from the emerging markets

International Cosmetics News | October 2016

of China and India is expected to boost the market for deodorants and antiperspirants in Asia Pacific.

Increasing population coupled with increasing disposable income in the developing countries such as India and china is expected to drive the global deodorants and antiperspirants market.

Increasing disposable income allow the customer to spend more on luxury products among which these products plays key role. From being non-essential product, deodorants and antiperspirants products have emerged as an essential product in today's era. Also, economic development in growing markets coupled with increased demand for youth-oriented products and celebrity scents are expected to drive the global deodorants and antiperspirants market.

Some of the major companies operating in the global deodorants and antiperspirants market are Unilever, Cavinkare, Addidas, Nike, Procter & Gamble, Godrej and Garnier.

TECH & INGREDIENTS

Asia-Pacific is the largest white oils-consuming region The global demand for white oils is estimated at 1.6 million tonnes in 2015 and has been increasing only moderately over the past four years, finds the forthcoming Global White Oils: Market Analysis and Opportunities report by international market research and management consulting firm Kline. Asia-Pacific is the largest white oils-consuming region, followed by North America and Europe. South America witnessed a dip in its white oil demand since 2011 due to Brazil’s demand contraction as a consequence of economic crisis.

Cosmetics and toiletries and plastics and polymers are the major consumers of white oils. The cosmetics and toiletries industry alone accounts for more than one-fourth of the total white oil demand.

Textiles are the third largest consumer of white oils, with demand coming mainly from China, where it accounts for almost one-third of the white oil demand.

Pharmaceutical/food-grade white oils account for nearly two-thirds of the total white oils consumed in the key markets in 2015. However, in China, technical grades take the vast majority of the market as most of the white oils-consuming sectors do not have higher requirements in quality, such as textiles, inks, polystyrenes, and adhesives.

Currently, close to 70% of the white oil demand in the key markets is for Group II base oil based products. Traditionally, white oils have been made from paraffinic Group I and naphthenic base stocks.

However, the usage of Group I have been shirking due to the decline in Group I supply, whereas Group II, III, and GTL suppliers have been successful in creating a market for themselves. Group II usage is high, particularly in North America and India. Amid declining Group I supply, white oil suppliers in these regions prefer Group II over Group I because of its higher purity and abundant availability.

Competition is increasing between base oil producers, white oil producers, blenders, and importers at different points

44

of the supply chain across all regions.

However, the existing suppliers have an advantage over new entrants because the product approval process is generally lengthy and customers do not easily switch suppliers unless there are visible benefits in cost or improvement in performance.

The Chinese national oil company Sinopec, a leading supplier in China, is also the leading supplier in the key markets with a 25% market share.

Calumet, second to Sinopec, is the leading supplier in North America, but is also supplying to Brazil and other countries. The white oil markets in India, the United States, and Europe have intense competition because of the presence of many producers and blenders, resulting in thin profit margins.

The usage of white oil viscosities and grades varies by region and application. For instance, China does not have a specific grade for pharmaceutical grade.

In Brazil, white oils are produced in pharmaceutical grade, which includes the most highly refined grades of white oils.

Technical/industrial grade is currently not produced in Brazil and supplied via imports.

“Due to the heavy dependence on imports, Latin America and Africa are among the most lucrative markets offering good opportunities to expand sales of white oils,” comments Sushmita Dutta, Project Lead, Energy, at Kline. “As the regions’ economies grow, demand for pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and toiletries will also increase.” For more information, visit www.KlineGroup.com.

Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles Market to Reach $734 Million by 2022 A

new report published by Allied Market Research titled, "Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles Market by Application and Geography - Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2014 - 2022," projects that the world cerium oxide nanoparticles market is expected to reach $734 million by 2022 from $186 million in 2015, registering a CAGR of 21.7% from 2016 to 2022. It is anticipated that biomedical segment would generate the highest revenue throughout the forecast period.

In the year 2015, Asia-Pacific led the global market and is expected to maintain its position throughout the study period.

According to Eswara Prasad, Team Lead Chemical Research at AMR, "the impact of funding and support from government is expected to positively drive the cerium oxide nanoparticles market towards the development of new materials and in widespread commercialization" The industry players made significant investments on new commercial avenues for their product segments via strategic partnerships & collaborations. Governmental funding towards extensive research and development activities coupled with an increasing support for application of cerium oxide nanoparticles. There is a rise in demand for cerium oxide nanoparticles from various end-user industries and an increase in application scope owing to its superior properties. Also, the decrease in prices of cerium oxide nanoparticles owing to the improving manufacturing technologies is expected to drive the demand for cerium oxide nanoparticles over the forecast period. However, growing concerns over environmental impact & toxicity of cerium oxide nanoparticles, high processing costs, and stringent environmental regulations could hamper the market growth during the forecast period.

In the year 2015, polishing was the largest end-user industry, with about one-third value share of cerium oxide nanoparticles market, followed by catalyst, biomedical, energy storage and personal care & cosmetic products segment. The extraordinary physio-chemical properties of cerium oxide nanoparticles, such as catalytic, neuroprotective, high ionic conductivity and anti-inflammatory properties have increased its penetration in a wide array of application, as it results in improved performance of the end product.

SKINCARE

Dermatologists Share

Skin Care Tips for Men When it comes to skin care, men have traditionally kept it simple. However, experts say more men are now pursuing healthier, younger-looking skin. Since November is National Healthy Skin Month, dermatologists from the American Academy of Dermatology say now is a great time for men to evaluate their skin care routine and learn more about how to take care of their body's largest organ.

"Men's skin care isn't as taboo anymore as more men embrace ways to take care of their skin at home," said board-certified dermatologist Anthony Rossi, MD, FAAD, assistant professor of dermatology, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Weill Cornell Medical College, New York. "Although there are key differences between men and women's skin -for example, men's skin is thicker than women's -- the basic elements of an effective skin care plan remain the same."

Before developing a skin care routine, Dr. Rossi says it's important that everyone identify and understand their skin type: • Sensitive skin may sting or burn after product use • Normal skin is clear and not sensitive • Dry skin is flaky, itchy or rough • Oily skin is shiny and greasy 46

• Combination skin is dry in some areas and oily in others "Understanding your skin type will help you learn how to take care of your skin and select skin care products that are right for you," said Dr. Rossi.

TO HELP MEN DEVELOP HEALTHY SKIN CARE ROUTINES, DR. ROSSI RECOMMENDS THE FOLLOWING TIPS: 1. Consider product labels and ingredients: The skin care products you choose will depend on your skin type. If you have acne-prone skin, look for cleansers and moisturizers that say "oil free" or "noncomedogenic," as these won't clog your pores. If you have sensitive skin, use mild, "fragrance-free" products, as products containing fragrances

can leave skin feeling irritated and dry.

However, beware of products labeled "unscented," as many of these contain masking fragrances that can still irritate your skin.

2. Wash your face daily and after exercise: Since regular bar soap often contains harsh ingredients that can be drying to the skin, wash your face with a mild facial cleanser and lukewarm -- not hot -- water.

3. Watch your shaving technique: For some men, multi-blade razors can work too well or shave too closely to the skin. If you often experience razor bumps, razor burns or ingrown hairs, use a single- or double-blade razor instead and do not stretch your skin taut while shaving. Before you shave, wet your skin and hair to soften it.

Use a moisturizing shaving cream and shave in the direction of hair growth.

Rinse after each swipe of the razor, and change your blade after five to seven shaves to minimize irritation.

4. Moisturize daily: Moisturizer works by trapping water in your skin, which can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and make your skin look brighter and younger. For the best results, apply moisturizer to your face and body immediately after bathing, showering or shaving while the skin is still damp.

5. Check your skin regularly: New spots or moles that itch, bleed or change color are often early warning signs of skin cancer. If you notice any suspicious spots, make an appointment to see a dermatologist. Men over age 50 have

International Cosmetics News | October 2016

a higher risk of developing melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, than the general population. However, when caught early, skin cancer is highly treatable.

6. Wear sunscreen whenever outdoors: To help prevent sun damage that can lead to wrinkles, age spots and even skin cancer, before going outdoors, apply sunscreen to all exposed areas of skin, including your scalp, ears, neck and lips.

For best protection, use a broad-spectrum, water-resistant sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher and reapply every two hours or immediately after swimming or sweating. You can also protect your skin by seeking shade and wearing protective clothing, including sunglasses that have UV protection and wide-brimmed hats.

"Every man's skin is different, and there is no 'one size fits all' approach to skin care," said Dr. Rossi. "If you aren't sure what skin type you have, or if have questions about how to take care of your skin, see a board-certified dermatologist."

These tips are demonstrated in "Skin Care Tips for Men," a video posted to the AAD website and YouTube channel. This video is part of the AAD's "Video of the Month" series, which offers tips people can use to properly care for their skin, hair and nails. A new video in the series posts to the AAD website and YouTube channel each month.

Headquartered in Schaumburg, Ill., the American Academy of Dermatology, founded in 1938, is the largest, most influential, and most representative of all dermatologic associations. With a membership of more than 18,000 physicians worldwide, the AAD is committed to: advancing the diagnosis and medical, surgical and cosmetic treatment of the skin, hair and nails; advocating high standards in clinical practice, education, and research in dermatology; and supporting and enhancing patient care for a lifetime of healthier skin, hair and nails.

ANTI-AGING

Bioeffect The Language of the Skin Representing the future of scientic skin care, Bioeffect is a tool which can rewrite the story of your skin. The Bioeffect skin care products contain cellular activators, which are a natural part of the communication network within our skin. They act as words written in the skin’s own language, telling the skin to speed up its renewal process and restore its natural radiance.

I

n 1986 Stanley Cohen was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his discovery of the EGF cellular activator and its vital function in the biology of human skin. As we age, the skin slows its natural production of EGF and other cellular activators and begins to lose rmness and elasticity.

The skin grows thinner, the surface epidermis becomes duller in appearance and wrinkles begin to form. Bioeffect addresses this process at cellular level and brings luminosity back to the skin.

ICELANDIC BIOTECHNOLOGY The Bioeffect skin care products are the world‘s rst to contain EGF cellular activator made in plants. Through 10 years of biotechnology research in Iceland, scientists are able to instruct the barley 54

plant to make EGF in its seed, which is identical to the EGF in our skin, and which the skin understands as its own.

Each barley plant is grown individually in volcanic pumice and watered with pure spring water in greenhouses in Iceland, using renewable geothermal energy.

The patent-pending green biotechnology ensures that the Bioeffect products contain EGF of maximum purity, activity and stability.

UNIQUE EFCACY The unique efcacy of Bioeffect skin care products has been proven in randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical studies.

In a recent study done in 2014 conducted by Dr. Martina Kerscher, professor of cosmetic science at the University of

Hamburg, 30 volunteers applied Bioeffect EGF Serum on one half of their face and an indentical product void of EGF on the other half. After two months, the depth and volume of wrinkles on the side of the face which received the EGF was signicantly reduced, the skin‘s thickness had increased by 60% and the skin density by more than 30%.

Dr. Ronald Moy, a world-renowned authority on dermatology, conducted a study among 29 of his patients in Beverly Hills and reported a signicant reduction in the appearance of wrinkles, improvement in skin texture, reduction in apparent pore size and improvement in pigmentation.

Thousands of users of Bioeffect have become Bioeffect fans and on their own

Dermocosmetics to Surpass Anti-aging?

Achieving beautiful skin is no longer confined to wearing makeup or applying anti-aging creams. Consumers are moving toward healthy lifestyles and want to feel and look good.

To do so, they seek to maintain hydrated, luminous skin; protect it from external impurities via anti-pollution solutions; and gain a gradual tan without the burn. Along with this mindset comes a greater

accord taken on the task of spreading the word of Bioeffect around the world.

Among fans of Bioeffect are numerous celebrities, beauty experts and beauty editors and it has received great praise in the beauty media.

The reason for Bioeffect's success is well described by Mrs.Edwina IngsChambers, Beauty Editor of The Sunday Times Style Magazine: “In the end, what is most important is that this stuff works.

And it really does. It deserves its word of mouth. It deserves its cult status. Don’t believe me? Well, you are just a few drops a day away from changing your mind.”

awareness of the ingredients used in products and a declining interest in unnatural tans. This is perhaps what is driving the beauty industry to align itself more proactively with health care. Among the most dynamic beauty segments, particularly with skin and sun care, is dermocos­metics—and moving forward, this may be a detriment to remedial options such as anti-aging treatments. Dermocos­metics by definition is where cosmetics meet dermatology or where beauty meets health. Prevention is proving to be a formidable source of growth in skin and sun care. Acne-sufferers are already aware of the scarring damage it caused by acne, the unsightly look of flaring eczema and the difficulty of reversing wrinkle formation caused by sunburns, dry skin and older age. Hence, consumers are getting used to the idea of using preventative products at a younger age.

It’s no wonder the shift is being driven by millennials, whose ultimate aim appears to be quashing the longer-term need for anti-aging solutions. The result is a robust prospect in products that support skin maintenance—often with anti-aging benefits—including face masks, cleansers and moisturizers.

As a result, anti-aging approaches, which remain solid at the moment, might eventually lose some of their spark, with strong activity coming from other skin care categories. This scenario is boosting dermocos­metics, and variants that embody similar characte­ristics such as health-alignment and the use of powerful natural ingredients.

High-end skin care Bioeffect is available in premium department stores, perfumeries, life-style shops, pharmacies, airlines and spas. Among retailers of Bioeffect are: Colette in Paris, Selfridges in London, Harvey Nichols in Hong Kong, Magasin du Nord in Copenhagen and KaDeWe in Berlin.

Examining beauty dietary supplements and beauty-from-within sales, it is apparent this space remains Asia-centric, where the idea that beauty is what you eat is rooted in local culture. In other regions, most notably North America, legislative constraints, consumer cynicism and a desire for instant visible results limit the segment’s growth. As nutricos­metics have struggled to take off beyond Asia-Pacific, those with backing from credible, high-equity dermocos­metics brands stand the best chance of succeeding. Looking at the total global dietary supplements segment, valued at $54 billion in 2015, only 6% of sales were from beauty-positioned supplements. However, this rose to 8% in Western Europe and 9% in Asia-Pacific.

Bioeffect is a bestseller at Paris trend-setting Colette. 30% of Icelandic women over the age of thirty use Bioeffect EGF Serum, according to an independent, nation wide survey conducted in January 2012.

Consumer preference remains overwhel­mingly for health-positioned supplements, which may include ingredients such as vitamin C that provide, but do not acknowledge, beauty benefits. While the state of our hair and skin reflects personal health, a “beauty” claim is often too “shallow” for the consumer, compared to a health claim—especially in an era when consumers demand tangible proof of efficacy.

the demand of curcumin in food applications. However, existence of cheap synthetic food colors serves as a restraining factor in the growth of curcumin market in Rest of the World (RoW) and Asia Pacific region.

Dental Hygienists Can Boost Acceptance Of Fluoride Varnish Treatment Among Adult Patients Approximately half of US adults experience tooth sensitivity. Ninety-one percent of US adults with dental decay are between the ages of 20 and 64. More than four million people in the United States wear braces, and of those, 25% are adults. Long-term benefits can be realized when fluoride varnish treatment is used for patients with sensitive teeth or dental decay. Despite this, practices still struggle to convince adults they should undertake fluoride varnish treatment. Patients often say that they do not want fluoride treatments following their hygiene visits.

W

e've known for years that individuals with diabetes, acid reflux, heart disease, or autoimmune disease are more likely to have compromised dental health. The same is true for people who undergo radiation treatment, take medication that causes dry mouth, vape, smoke tobacco products, or use a hookah.

If you combine these risk factors with the nutritional deficiency we see among our patients, it is easy to see why there is a prevalence of tooth decay, enamel erosion, and sensitivity.

Fluoride varnish treatment has long been known to help reduce hypersensitivity along the cervical margins, improve enamel resistance against acid, provide long-term caries prophylaxis, reduce the incidence of caries among high-risk patients, and treat sensitivity after tooth whitening. In fact, the American Dental Association recommends fluoride applications up to every three months for high-risk patients.4

Many factors contribute to the decision to recommend fluoride varnish treatment to a patient. These include ease of application, patient comfort, convenience, effectiveness, and the willingness of patients to pay when insurance will not.

Today's fluoride varnish products are conveniently packaged for immediate use. Fluor Protector and Fluor Protector S (Ivoclar Vivadent) are two such products.

Today's products enable applications (multi- or single-dose) in hard-to-reach areas . For example, Fluor Protector, a protective 0.1% fluoride varnish, will spread easily, flow readily into complex surface structures, dry quickly, and show excellent adhesion to teeth. The product has been shown to be effective in numerous international studies. Similarly, Fluor Protector S features 7,700 ppm fluoride in a homogeneously dissolved solution to ensure immediate fluoride availability.

Its low viscosity contributes to optimum flow and wetting properties. This enhances ease of use and application efficiency.

Modern fluoride varnish products provide instant fluoride availability and protection. Fluoride varnish can be applied in a single appointment (Fluor Protector) or over the course of several appointments (Fluor Protector S).

Although some patients might be reticent with health histories and habits, it is important to compassionately ask questions-as well as ask permission to do so. No one is better suited to this than hygienists, who often know patients

the best. Asking the right questions will establish a foundation of trust and understanding.

Remember, most patients are unaware that consuming highly acidic beverages and foods erodes enamel. If dietary changes are not in a patient's future, then your hygienist can take the opportunity to explain how fluoride varnish treatment will help in the long run. Your hygienist can explain how erosion ultimately leads to the need for costly restorations.

Your hygienist can nonjudgmentally provide patients with facts about how fluoride varnish will help in three key areas: preventing caries, relieving sensitivity, and protecting against acid erosion.

If patients still seem reluctant, mention that today's options have a mild flavor and smell, unlike many previous varnishes, and that they deliver about four times the concentration of fluoride after setting.

Moreover, because their enamel will be directly supplied with fluoride, patients will definitely be getting their money's worth in protection.

As advocates, hygienists can guide their patients toward understanding the "why" behind recommendations. When hygienists incorporate health histories and habits into conversations, they can better engage patients in personal stories of ongoing preventive care.

Mibelle launchs Swiss Tempelle, body care range for India

The launch of the first body care range for India by Mibelle, “Swiss Tempelle”, is another successful milestone on this long and exciting journey which still continues today. First and foremost, we had to develop a completely new business model for a market that was completely unknown to us. It is a market that is dynamic and highly complex. At the same time, we had to find an attractive partner and create a sustainable framework for our joint business activities.

It is now a year since we signed a strategic collaboration agreement with the biggest retailer in India, the Future Group. Luigi Pedrocchi reported on this step towards entering the Indian market here. After founding the joint venture was founded in October, we worked hard on developing the first umbrella brand for the Indian market, which we named “Swiss Tempelle”.

In creating “Swiss Tempelle”, we have successfully fused together two cultures by combining Indian consumers’ positive image of Switzerland with familiar Indian values. The product formulas are the result of our intensive and fruitful 60

The Indian team was very impressed with the way we implemented the concepts and was excited about the launch of “Swiss Tempelle” in India. Kishore Biyani, the owner of the Future Group, and his daughter Avni Biyani, Joint Venture Board Member, were delighted to see the first production samples in person in Buchs.

We look forward to seeing how our market entry develops. Due to the strong growth of the middle class, the market harbours great potential and many opportunities, especially as Indians associate ‘Swissness’ and Swiss products with high Quality.

Just recently we were finally able to

Tempelle” in its stores. Joint promotional activities such as sample sachets and a mood movie have been designed to ensure consumer attention and to familiarise customers with the “Swiss Tempelle” story.

The first sales figures are very promising.

If the brand performs in India as well as it did in our market tests last year, we can look very positively ahead to the future.

Parallel to the launch, we are also working on additional product ranges. In addition, we are in the process of setting up the local infrastructure. We are currently taking a closer look at local manufacturers so that in the medium term we can produce in India for the local market.

We look forward to reporting on our next steps in India in the near future.

SRF will be accompanying us to India for its business magazine programme ECO. Together we will be visiting our business partners and sales points for “Swiss Tempelle”.

TO ACCESS EMERGING MARKETS WITH NEW BUSINESS MODELS In the New Markets division we concentrate on successfully accessing new markets (emerging markets), which usually have complex framework conditions and structural challenges. New business models, cooperations and alliances are key components in successful access to emerging markets.

Topic areas such as legal & compliance or tax are also central to developing these markets, as well as purely commercial considerations. Geographically our focus is on southern Asia, India and southern Africa. In the case of India we are already successfully working closely with India’s biggest retail organisation and in 2015 we got a joint venture underway for Mibelle Group.

Korean online beauty site sees payments as game changer S o u t h e a s t A s i a’ s largest online Korean beauty site Althea has p a r tn er e d w i th g l o b a l payments company Adyen to provide its customers a frictionless payment experience. “We recognize that the checkout and payment process is often the most important stage in the customer journey. The journey rarely ends when the ‘buy’ button is clicked,” said Jae Kim, Co-Founder and Chief Financial Officer of Althea. “We strongly believe in having a consistent and trusted payment system across all our markets to build customer loyalty and encourage repeat purchases.”

He cited that one of the pertinent issues in e-commerce is the abandoned card epidemic, which is usually a result of a rejection of the payment process. The beauty site is currently working with Adyen to enable customers in Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand to pay via their desired payment method, from online banking to payments at a convenience store and ATMs. “With the region’s rising middle class and increasing spending power, e-commerce in Southeast Asia is a growing phenomenon. However, retailers looking to target the region need to note that when it comes to payments, there is no one preferred payment method and consumer preferences are still highly fragmented,” said Warren Hayashi, President of Adyen Asia-Pacific.

Despite market-specific differences, the most important thing for retailers is building deep engagement with their consumers. To gain insight on payment preferences, Adyen provides Althea with daily reports on ongoing transactions.

Thus, it is able to optimize authorization rates as needed to reduce payment rejection and identify other potential friction points. “K-beauty in Southeast Asia is already a multi-billion-dollar market, and the ongoing development of the region, especially in e-commerce, will only fuel the market's growth going forward,” said Kim. Founded in 2015 by former senior executives from Ticketmonster, Groupon, and Memebox, Althea strives to bring the best of Korean beauty to consumers in Southeast Asia, a region where there was a huge demand for K-beauty products.

“K-beauty is a phenomenon that has gained in both popularity and credibility in the global beauty market. The popularity of Korean pop culture such as K-pop and K-dramas has helped shed some light on Korean beauty brands such as Laneige, Innisfree, and Tony Moly, but the rise of K-beauty has been in the works for decades,” Kim explained.

New Study Shows This Common Skin Care Product Can Improve Hyperpigmentation by 50 Percent

W

e all know that sunscreen protects skin from the damaging effects of the sun, but, the results of a new study show another huge benefit to wearing it, and we were totally surprised when we learned what it was.

A new study conducted by Johnson & Johnson Consumer Inc., published this month in Dermatologic Surgery, reveals that not only does your daily dose of SPF help prevent damage from harmful UV rays, but it also actually helps erase signs of photoaging that already exist, like wrinkles and hyperpigmentation.

Until now, this benefit of sunscreen has hardly been investigated.

In the study, a group of 32 women (ages 40–55) applied a moisturizer with broad-spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen to their entire face every day for a year, and underwent dermatologist evaluations at baseline, and then again at weeks 12, 24 and 36. According to director of dermatology and dermatologic surgery

64

for Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Dr. Steven Q. Wang, who assisted in the study, at week 52, it was determined that skin texture, clarity and pigmentation were improved 40–52 percent from baseline. All participants showed improvement in skin texture and clarity.

If you're thinking, maybe the moisturizer played a role in minimizing these signs of aging (my first thought), it's not the case. "Moisturizer is very important as any part of a daily skin care regimen, however, the moisturizer in this study has no anti-aging ingredients," says Dr. Wang. "The subjects applied sunscreen daily and a nighttime moisturizer without anti-aging ingredients, and they were advised to avoid excessive sun exposure. They were provided recreational sunscreens for active use." The "theory" as to how this is possible, as Dr. Wang states, is that "Sunscreen is effective in preventing ongoing UV-induced photo damage, which in turns gives the skin a chance to regenerate and heal." So while skin is healing, signs of aging are able to be minimized.

"This is great research and exciting news!" says New York dermatologist Dendy Engelman, MD. "This study highlights what dermatologists have been saying all along: Protecting your skin can help you look younger. UV radiation damages skin through multiple pathways to cause fine lines, wrinkles and dyschromia (discoloration). If you block the effects of the sun on your skin, you mitigate these undesirable outcomes.

Similar studies have been done in the past, but this one is great because it shows the benefit of wearing daily sunscreen in just one year. Very compelling information!"

So if you've always been one of those people who don't think they need sunscreen because they "don't burn," you might be more inclined to wear it now.

‘Colour-changing sunscreen patch may protect from sunburns’ A high-tech UV-sensitive patch that changes colour when it is time to reapply sunscreen may help protect people from sunburns and the risk of skin cancer, scientists say, reports PTI. Currently the most common way to assist people to determine how long they can safely stay in the sun after sunscreen application is time-based on the two hour reapply recommendation, researchers said.

“Sunscreen when applied at the correct concentration (2mg/cm2) is effective at blocking the harmful effects of ultra violet radiation, however the concentration applied in real life conditions is usually less, which provides inadequate protection,” said Elke Hacker from Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in Australia. “What we are seeing is despite doing their best to stay sun safe and sunburn-free, people get either the concentration or the timing wrong resulting in a damaging dose of ultraviolet radiation,” she said. Researchers are looking at the usability of a newly developed wearable UV indicator that takes away the guesswork in how much sunscreen to apply and when to reapply by changing colour to warn wearers their sunscreen is no longer effective.

“As part of our study we are looking for Brisbane-based volunteers to test a patch before we undertake a larger trial to determine if it can reduce the incidence of sunburn,” said Hacker. “Participants will be asked to test the patch for a 7-day period and attend two focus groups sessions at the start and end of the study,” she said.

UV radiation or sunlight exposure was the main environmental risk factor for skin cancer, said Hacker. “What we know is that sunburn rates are high, especially among younger people, with more than 72 per cent of Queenslanders aged 18-24 admitting to getting sunburnt,” she added.

“High rates of sunburn are caused because people are unaware when dangerous UV levels have been reached. This device seeks to give real-time information that can help change unhealthy sun exposure habits,” she said.

European Commission requests opinion on safety of cosmetic nanomaterials

T

he European Commission has asked the Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) to give an opinion on the safety of three nanoparticles used in cosmetics: • colloidal silver; • styrene/acrylates copolymer; and • sodium styrene/acrylates copolymer.

In 2015 the Commission issued a call for data on their safety. This was to include toxicological endpoints and suggestions for safe concentration limits.

SCCS asked to produce reports on nano colloidal silver and two styrene/acrylate copolymers As required by the cosmetics Regulation, the Commission received 63 notifications of products containing nano colloidal silver. These included toothpastes and skin creams, at a level of up to 1%. For the two nano copolymers, it received notification of eight products containing them. These included leave-on face and skin care products at a level of up to 0.06%.

The Commission has expressed concern that cells may absorb the nanoparticles.

The SCCS has six months to produce its opinions.

Why Iranian Women Spend Big on Cosmetics

Iranian women spend three times more on makeup than women in France, Germany and the UK. Everyday wearing of makeup is probably more common in Iran, an Islamic republic, than in some liberal western countries. It is a rare opportunity to parade one’s beauty without fear of official censure.

W

and the use of cosmetics as a political statement.

It's news that has the potential to reinforce all sorts of stereotypes — about oppression of women in the Middle East

But experts say, the reasons behind Iranian beauty trends are more complex than that, and a closer look offers a window into the culture, history and social life of Iran. The idea that Iranian women wear makeup to make a political statement against the mandatory hijab is "an oversimplified version of reality," said

omen in Iran spend an unusually large proportion of their incomes on makeup, according to a recent report, which found that 4.5 percent of annual wages in Iran go toward cosmetics. That rate is three times what women spend in France, Germany or the United Kingdom.

Aliakbar Jafari, who researches consumer culture at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow and travels frequently to Iran, where he is from. "I'm not denying that this exists," he said. "But narrowing everything down to politics is very naïve."

Context is important, for one thing, and the use of cosmetics in Iran is far from new. Archaeological evidence includes lipsticks, eyeliners and face powders

International Cosmetics News | October 2016

Iran is a land of contrasts, where multiple cultures exist simultaneously, Jafari adds. Behind closed doors, fashion trends are adventurous and diverse.

Makeup use varies, too. With access to Western movies, magazines, social media and foreign cosmetic products, the use of makeup and elective plastic surgery have become increasingly popular, among both women and men in Iran. women became required to cover their heads and bodies while out in public.

The mandatory hijab left faces as the only place where women could express their identities, says Marjan Jalalin, a women's studies researcher associated with the University of California, Santa Barbara, and ex-CEO of L'Oreal in Tehran. She was a teenager living in Iran during the Revolution and says that, before the war, her generation opposed wearing makeup because to them, it symbolized sexual oppression and turned women into puppets.

that date back more than 5,000 years, he says, when different types of cosmetics signaled a woman's position of power.

In poetry, literature, religion and art, Jafari adds, Iranian women have long been depicted as glamorous and refined.

"Women in Iran have always been using cosmetics," he said. "We need to acknowledge that although the practices we see today are shaped by many social, economic and political dynamics, these things are also deeply rooted in history."

Still, plenty has changed, particularly after the Iranian Revolution of 1979, when

After the Revolution, she says, makeup became fashionable for girls, and their use of it grew increasingly exaggerated.

With the rest of their bodies covered, the face became central to a woman's value and sense of self. "Because women can not display their bodies or hair styles or tattoos, what becomes prominent is the face," Jafari said. "And what becomes more prominent is the makeup."

Cosmetics are also a form of entertainment, he and a colleague discovered after conducting in-depth interviews with 15 young Iranian women for a 2014 study.

For many, they wrote, the use of makeup represented "the desire to uplift tired spirits in a monotonous environment."

Iran is a land of contrasts, where multiple cultures exist simultaneously, Jafari adds.

Behind closed doors, fashion trends are adventurous and diverse. Makeup use varies, too. Among his Iranian relatives,

some indulge in beauty products as well as cosmetic surgeries. Others are more modest in their appearance. But with access to Western movies, magazines, social media and foreign cosmetic products, the use of makeup and elective plastic surgery have become increasingly popular, among both women and men in Iran.

At the same time, social pressures have shifted, Jalalin says, even within families.

She has two daughters, both in their 30s, who have had nose jobs and encourage her to stay "up-to-date." "My daughters expect me to always be in fashion," she said. "They respect me more when I have good makeup and am fresh." Also deeply rooted is a belief among Iranian men that their wives should look a certain way.

When Jalalin was visiting one her daughters in the hospital after her nose surgery, she met a woman who was suffering after having multiple plastic surgeries, including a face-lift and breast implants.

Jalalin asked her why she'd done all of the surgeries at once. The woman said that her husband wanted her to look fashionable, and he had borrowed money to make it happen.

"There is no doubt that women are giving importance to their appearance and are willing to do anything at any price to improve their bodies and their fates," Jalalin said. "This has become the norm."

"There is not really pushback," she added.

"This is the problem."

COMPANY PROFILE

Parlux, the ideal working tool for hair stylists Founded in 1977 by Paolo Parodi, Parlux is an Italian manufacturer of hair dryers, favoured by professional hairdressers. Since its inception, Parlux has won multiple awards for quality and design during the decades since. Parlux’ first product, the iconic ‘Superturbo 1500’, had an incredible powerful motor that could quickly reach the temperature required. Its easy-to-use switches set the tone for the competition.

Their current model, the Advance Light, comes in

1977 -1978 In the late '70's, after many years of research and collaboration with many top Italian hair salons, the young Paolo Parodi - Director of Parlux - began his career together with a group of equally young employees in a professional venture that would become a worldwide giant.

Their f irst pro duc t, t he famous "Superturbo 1500" , was quickly singledout due to its incredible professional high-resistant motor that, thanks to the innovative technical features, could quickly reach the temperature required and to its easy-to-use switches.

These important features gave way to many other professional products, always using continuous up-to-date technologies.

1985 The Milanese Company studied and brought to life a new hairdryer: the "Superturbo 2000" (1440 Watt, 2 temperatures, lightweight, instant cold shot button, low noise).

various colours and is one of the quietest and lightest dryers on the market today. Parlux design has always been inspired by a clean aesthetic profile, with clear lines & simple geometric shapes that guarantee perfect ergonomics & simplicity of use. Simplicity is the feature that distinguishes the beauty of the Parlux hair dryers, together with being made of high-quality & modern materials, thus making it a leader over the years.

1991 The inevitable continuous growth caused the company to move to bigger premises in order to keep everything at hands throw and under strict control.

The Company moved from Corsico, Milano to its present-day location at Trezzano sul Naviglio, near-by to the cut off of the Milan-West Highway.

Here the production of Parlux continued not only for the Italian market but for markets the whole world over, where their reliability and professionalism became a renowned world name.

1993-1997 With the same up-to-date technology, that distinguished this famous brand, new tests were carried out to better the air-flow. The hairdryers had to succumb to long hours of continuous and stressful use.

This allowed the Company to provide hairdressers with a hairdryer that could meet even more than their daily needs.

In 1997 Parlux started out on their new quest to obtain the certification ISO 9001 from Sincert. After obtaining such certification, they then obtained compliance with the Certification ISO 9001/2000 for Design and Production of Electrical Equipment for Hairdressers.

In April 1998, during the trade show Cosmoprof in Bologna, a very new hairdryer is presented, it is the Parlux 2800.

Together with the technical features already adopted by Parlux technicians at this time (1700 Watt power, 2 speed temperature-control, immediate coldair shot, light-weight and low-noise), this new model, for the fist time ever is equipped with an ergonomic hand-grip which causes the hairdressers less fatigue when working.

Thanks to its high-quality technical features and modern design, this model became one of the most used hairdryers in hair salons all over the world.

2000 This is the year where manual production was replaced with a new automatic

system allowing the production of many more safer products to be manufactured at a quicker pace.

At the same time, a new inside-factory laboratory called the "Robotized Hairdresser" was inaugurated, where accurate technical tests are done (on hairdryers, straighteners and irons) by a robotized appliance, which, in constant movement, can simulate the product in use.

This new system helps to monitor, at close range, the intermittent function of the products thus indicating faults and ways of bettering them.

2010 The year of "Parlux 3800" to be added to the best of the previous models.

This dryer is the ideal-sized product for hairdresser-use and is launched in the "Ionic & Ceramic Edition" with an incorporated silencer, for the first time ever in the hairdressing field. Hairdressers can now boast, of having at their disposal, a powerful, but much quieter hairdryer.

This is also the year of the "Eco Friendly" philosophy. The Company believes and chooses to follow this direction in producing products with low-environmental impact.

2002 A new hairdryer is put out the domestic an international market; it’s the model Parlux 3000. Modern and practical design, 1810 Watt, it assures 2000 hours life, 2 speeds, 4 temperatures.

2011 The Melody Silencer: "For salons without noise ".

For the first time ever in the world, a new item, the "Melody Silencer" is launched in the hairdressing field, that is capable of reducing the noise of the working professional hairdryer by 45%. A revolutionary item that was thought of in order to safeguard the health of both customer and hairdresser and can be easily attached to all models of Parlux hairdryers.

2004-2006 Parlux 3200 Compact is presented for the first time.

A new small, light-weight and powerful hairdryer with an international patent.

Its new K-Lamination motor insures power (1900 watts), light-weight, longlife and geometric system that provides lower-energy consumption.

This motor is now used in all Parlux appliances.

After the Parlux 3200, the new Parlux 3200 "Ionic & Ceramic Edition" came on the market which owes its success, not only to the motor, but also to the ceramics that cover the isolation and the grill and device that emits negative ions insuring that the hair is dried very quickly leaving it soft, smooth, shiny and healthy.

2007 This year the new supercompact Parlux 3500, came on to the market in two versions: the "Standard" and the "Ionic".

This new hairdryer, much smaller and lighter in weight, proved to be a product that hairdressers found to be of great importance in their work shop.

2013 This was the year that a new hairdryer was put on the market called Parlux 385 PowerLight®, extra light and very powerful, a model that has all the necessary features of a professional high quality hairdryer: high power, light-weight together with the already well-known characteristics of all Parlux hairdryers that are: ideal size created for the hairdresser’s needs, ergonomic design, balance, minimum noise and last but not least eco-sustainable (Eco-Friendly Parlux).

A new longer-life K-Lamination motor, lighter yet more powerful, offers efficient and quick drying as well as light-weight, an important feature for those who use hairdryers many hours each day.

Inside this Parlux 385 PowerLight® model there is an already well tested and indispensable Ceramic and Ionic device which

allows for shiny and silky hair, already present in many other Parlux models.

This new hairdryer is available in ten different colours, from the more traditional to the most vibrant and trendy (fuchsia, orange, eco-green) adaptable to all salons and clientele.

2014-2015 Thanks to its extremely professional and technical characteristics, Parlux 385 PowerLight® quickly became the best-seller Parlux hairdryer in the world, in all its many coloured versions and in particular the Light Blue Emerald (2014) and LightGold (2015) models.

2016 At the Cosmoprof Worldwide 2016 Show Exhibition in Bologna, for the first time on the market we presented our new latest hairdryer, the Parlux ADVANCE®: innovative, technologically advanced and “futuristic”.

Rose Gold Unicorn Makeup Brushes Are Coming Soon Unicorns may not be real, but the next best thing exists: unicorn horn-shaped makeup brushes.

They are blowing up Instagram right now, and a new color option is coming soon. Unicorn Lashes is releasing unicorn makeup brushes with rose gold handles in 2017. The U.K.–based company Instagrammed a teaser yesterday to announce the upcoming set, and unicorn fans across the world rejoiced.

INCLUDED IN THE SET: Diamond Unicorn Bag Holder Buff Up - Flat Top Foundation Brush Chisel Cheeks - Sculpting Contour brush Bare Faced Blush - Blusher Brush Fleeky Brows - Brow Brush Strobe Alert - Fan Brush Whisp me Away - Powder Brush Spot It - Concealer Brush Blending is my Cardio - Blending Eyshadow Brush On Cloud Glitter - Packing eyeshadow Brush Crease Proof - Crease Eyeshadow Brush One Diamond Unicorn Bag to keep all your lovely brushes in Made from Synthetic Taklon. Vegan.

A couple months ago, Unicorn Lashes stunned lovers of the mythical creature with the original set of unicorn brushes. You've probably seen them on your Instagram Explore page. The handles are an opalescent white, the bristles are rainbow hued, and the overall effect is totally dreamy. And if that color scheme wasn't enough, the fanciful brushes come in a silver-and-black holographic diamond-shaped case. Of course, once the rainbow set went on sale in September, it sold out in less than 12 hours twice. According to the company, almost1,000 people are waiting for orders.

We reached out to Unicorn Lashes to get more info on the storied rose gold brushes. Mel Blue, the company's founder, tells Allure that before this set launches, the company is coming out with the Royale collection. Don't worry, they're unicorn themed, too. The Royale unicorn makeup brushes have black handles, gold ferrule (that's a fancy word for the metal bits that keep the handles strong), and red-tipped bristles. The rose gold ones are next on the docket, Blue says. But she's not 100 percent certain on the design. In the Instagram snap, the bristles are an ombrĂŠ red that fades to white. "But I'm considering a gorgeous rainbow mix of grays and pinks," Blue says.

The current rainbow Ultimate Unicorn Kit comes with ten brushes, and the Royale collection will, too. The set ranges from a fan brush and thin liner brush to a fluffy powder brush. All the brushes are made with taklon bristles, a high-quality synthetic vegan fiber. Blue says the official release date is "up in the air." But look out for them in early 2017, for sure. In the meantime, the rainbow unicorn makeup brushes, which are part of Unicorn Lashes' permanent collection, will be restocked in December on unicornlashes.co.uk.

Jafra Cosmetics Announces PerfumerInspired Fragrance JAFRA introduces Paris et Moi, a new romantic fragrance in collaboration with elite perfumer Philippine Courtiere. Jafra Cosmetics International introduces its newest fragrance, Paris et Moi Perfumer's Edition No.1 by P. Courtiere, the first in a series of exclusive fine fragrances created by hand-selected perfumers from around the world.

Brought to you in collaboration with elite perfumer Philippine Courtiere who hails from the renowned Firmenich Fragrance House, is Paris et Moi, a sophisticated, romantically-blended fragrance that captures her great love of fragrance and Paris in a bottle. Paris et Moi "combines the glamour, the elegance, and the youthful energy of trendy Parisian girls," says Courtiere. Courtiere wants "women [to] feel irresistible and capable of anything when wearing this perfume."

Courtiere's continuing drive for excellence within the prestigious world of perfumery is paralleled by Jafra's message of empowering women, propelling each one to great personal

and professional success. "We are so thrilled to be in partnership with such an accomplished perfumer," says Naomi Elder, Director of Fragrance at Jafra Cosmetics. "Just like Philippine thinks of perfume, we think of Jafra as an accessible luxury.

We also think that Philippine's sentiment about feeling free to express what she feels as a perfumer mirrors our long-held belief of 'freedom to be you.' This truly is a match made in heaven."

Top notes of mara strawberries, which remind P. Courtiere of the French fraise de bois tartlet - a flaky tart filled with strawberries she ate as a young girl at her grandmother's house, open this deliciously succulent scent. The simple, clean lines of the Paris et Moi bottle serves as the ideal backdrop for showcasing Paris's iconic symbol and a favorite of Courtiere's - the Eiffel Tower, which pays homage to the master lattice work exhibited throughout this architectural wonder.

Known as the olfactory artist behind Jafra's sensual new fragrance, Paris et Moi by P. Courtiere, Philippine Courtiere was born in the City of Lights where she first set out to become a legal analyst, but quickly changed course after accepting an internship in perfumery - a career she never intended to pursue, but a decision she never regretted making. Paris et Moi Perfumer's Edition is available from Jafra consultants and on www.Jafra.com, as well as on www.perfumersedition.com.
