In 2005, the Clarisonic era began with the launch of the Clarisonic Classic Sonic Skin Cleansing System. A brand created by the lead inventor of the Sonicare toothbrush, Clarisonic paved the way for the second generation of sonic health. Originally used for pre-treatment by top dermatologists and spas, Clarisonic’s patented, professional-caliber technology works within the natural elasticity of the skin, aiming to leave it looking softer, healthier and younger.

By using the brand’s cleansing tools, that oscillate back and forth at a sonic frequency that produces over 300 movements per second, dirt and oil can be loosened and removed gently with six times more efficiency than cleansing using hands alone. Clinical results have shown reduced appearance of pores, fine lines and wrinkles, and improved skin tone.

MST Beauty New York (MST) is introducing their newest innovation, Miracle Skin Transformer Body SPF 20—a high performance tinted treat-ment body enhancer that aims to reinvent the ordinary moisturizer.

“There was an amazing response to our MST face product that launched last year,” said Sarah McNamara, founder and CeO of MST Beauty New York. “Customers began asking if they could use the face product on their arms and legs as well, so we developed a product to speak to these women’s body concerns.”

Containing the M3 Complex—the three pillars of ingredients for all MST products—MST Body SPF 20 is able to hydrate, enhance and protect using transformational ingredients. Soy amino acids, wheat proteins, hyaluronic acid and glutamine peptides combine to hydrate dry, rough skin on the legs, arms and décolleté. To enhance, a naturally derived silicone base spreads evenly and quickly absorbs into skin,

CLARISONIC REDEFINES SKIN CLEANSING

“Our job is to make sure products are optimized for consumers and safe to use,” said Dr. Robb Akridge, co-founder and vice president of clinical affairs for Clarisonic. “Forty-two U.S. and international patents serve as evidence of our dedication to innovation. We take a lot of pride in figuring out every little detail.”

Building on the brand’s success within the spa and dermatology communities, Clarisonic diversified to meet the needs of a broader con-sumer through the introductions of various new products including cleansing systems for targeted areas of the body beyond the face (PLUS Sonic Skin Cleansing System-$225), on-the-go cleansing options (Mia Sonic Skin Cleansing System-$149) and a men’s alternative that caters to shaving needs (Grey Classic Sonic Skin Cleansing System-$195).

The next step for Clarisonic, the palm-sized opal Sonic Infusion System ($185), extended sonic cleansing to sonic infusion, which combines sonic micro-massage with a proprietary anti-aging serum to provide an immediate reduction of

the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the skin.

Another move included the addition of several different brush heads, made to cater to delicate, sensitive and normal skin types, as well as the body and hard to reach deep pores.

“Most skin cleansing brushes use nylon bristles that absorb water, but we use DuPont Super Soft bristles which are durable and exceptionally effective, yet gentle enough to use twice a day,” said Ken Pilcher, co-founder and vice president of research and development for Clarisonic.

For maximum benefits, the brand has developed gentle, pH-balanced, paraben-free cleansers and exfoliants formulated for each skin type to work in tandem with the sonic technology. Using ingredients like japanese green tea—a powerful anti-oxidant—and Vitamin Pro-B5, the cleansers are able to soothe, comfort and hydrate, while ridding the skin of dirt and oil.

Select Clarisonic products are available at Sephora, Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus, and the entire product line is available on clarisonic.com.

“We have enjoyed great successes thus far and look forward to expand-ing our sonic skin care offerings and reaching new customers,” said Chris Payne, vice president of mar-keting for Clarisonic. “We want to continue making a difference in the future of skin care for prospective Clarisonic clients, as well as our existing consumers.”

while simultaneously tightening and toning uneven skin and cellulite with caffeine encapsulated microspheres. And to protect, a “broad spectrum UVA/UVB SPF 20” is used to shield the skin from the sun’s damaging rays.

MST Body SPF 20 is available in three shades: Sheer enhancer (translucent/clear), Glow enhancer (light to medi-um) and Bronze enhancer (medium to dark), and is priced at $34.00. Product will be available in August at miracleskintransformer.com, sephora.com, and Bergdorf Goodman, and this September the brand will launch at select Sephora stores nationwide.

“With each new product we develop, we will continue to help streamline the skin care regimen by offering year-round products with simple applications and effective results,” said McNamara. “It’s all about giving your skin tone a total transformation.”

president and general manager of origins and ojon, in New York City on june 9.

Ms. Lauder, called a “new industry leader” by CeW president Carlotta Jacobson, discussed her innovative strategies and shared her insights on what has driven the success of the brands she leads.

“With so much competition in the cosmetic industry, it’s not an easy task to make individual brands stand out amongst the rest, but jane Lauder does that time and again,” said jacobson. Ms. jacobson then looked at jane and said, “I knew your grandmother [Estée Lauder] well, and she would be so proud to see you emerging as a

leader in the company she founded.”Since joining The Estée Lauder Companies in 1996,

Ms. Lauder has held a variety of different positions across an array of brands including Stila, Flirt!, American Beauty and Clinique. excited by the idea of “plant medicine,” jane was eager to get involved with the brands she’d always loved and respected, which led to her repositioning and current role at Origins and Ojon.

“Over 80% of the world uses plants as primary medicine and there is a lot of unexplored opportunity there,” said Lauder. “Our target customer is health-conscious and wants to read labels to make sure products are free from

harmful ingredients, so we create products that are good for their body and the environment, but also good for their wallet. efficacy is most important.”

As the first beauty brand to feature an open-sell environment in the retail sphere, Origins transformed the traditional shopping experience into that of a “discovery”—training beauty advisors to act as “guides.” Recently, the brand unveiled a new store design, “nature’s laboratory,” hoping to make the brand more visible while still retaining the original sense of discovery and natural feel.

“We thought it was important to maintain the earthy feel and sense of community within the store, while making other changes like adding more natural light,” said Lauder. “You can click to buy anywhere now, but nothing replaces the one-

on-one shopping experience.”Not only does Origins develop

efficacious beauty products, but they also give back to the community in exponential ways, literally.

“We’ve planted over 150,000 trees in the last year, and increased our recycling initiative using our trade-in programs,” said Lauder. “Giving back to the environment is fun and can be translated in all languages. Last year our trade-in project handed out 97,000 units in one day within stores in 11 countries.”

Ms. Lauder also shared her insights on the aspects of the job she loves the most.

“I really love listening to what consumers want and creating products that they will love,” said Lauder. “It’s not about the dream job, it’s about who you’re working for.”

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently issued its final rule-making to address the way in which the agency will require sunscreen products to be tested and labeled. They also published three other documents, including a Draft enforcement Guidance for Industry document, further explaining the final rule, a Proposed Rule on sun-screens with SPFs greater than 50, and an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR), which recognizes and requests information about alter-native dosage forms of sunscreen products such as sprays, powders, wipes and shampoos.

The FDA is now requiring sun-screens to indicate whether or not they protect against UVA and UVB rays, which can both contribute to skin cancer. A label that says “Broad Spectrum SPF” means the product has been cleared by the agency’s bar for protecting against both types of radiation.

According to the FDA, only broad spectrum-designated sunscreens with SPF values of 15 and up can claim to reduce the risk of skin cancer and premature aging if used as directed, and sunscreens that don’t carry the broad spectrum label or that do, but have an SPF of between 2 and 14, can claim only that they help prevent sunburn.

On another note, a proposed FDA rule suggests that SPF levels would be capped at 50, since the agency says there’s not enough data to support the case that higher SPFs provide significantly more protection.

The rules, which go into effect next year, also do away with sunscreens labeled “waterproof,” “sweatproof,” or “sunblock,” because such claims overstate their effectiveness according to the FDA. Sunscreens labeled as water-resistant are permitted, but the product label has to indicate whether it will be effective for 40 minutes or 80 minutes while swimming or sweating, based on standard testing.

For more information regarding these rules and documents, visit fda.gov.

Tarte, known for their high-perfor-mance natural beauty products, has collaborated with HBo to launch a limited-edition fall cosmetics collection inspired by the channel’s hit series True Blood, a show that mixes romance and mystery with vampires and the supernatural world.

emmy award-winning makeup artist and True Blood makeup department head Brigette Myre-Ellis interpreted the color palette and helped develop four official tarte for True Blood beauty looks for the collection, which include “Vampy Vixen” and “Luminous Fairy.” Ms. Myre-ellis influenced the creative process by aiming to include her favorite tarte products—LipSurgence lip tint, a natural cheek stain and a versatile eyeshadow palette with shimmer, matte and smoky shades.

“I’ve always liked tarte’s natural products,” said Myre-ellis. “So when tarte and HBO asked for my assistance in developing this special cosmetics line, I jumped at the opportunity. I had so much fun helping to create the looks, and I am sure women will have just as much fun exploring new ways to enhance their beauty.”

The collection includes three limited-edition products—a collector’s palette ($52.00) which features 17 mat te and sh immer shadows, emphasEYES aqua-gel eyeliner in

black, and a deluxe mascara and natural eye primer; a natural cheek stain in shimmering red ($30.00) and LipSurgence natural lip tint in shimmering red ($24.00).

“As loyal fans of the hit series, we’re absolutely thrilled to be working with HBO and the True Blood team,” said Maureen Kelly, founder and CeO of tarte, Inc. “This collection not only reflects the sexy vibe of the show, but it also remains true to the tarte brand with natural formulas, healthy ingredients and eco-chic packaging.”

Featured in strikingly vivid red and black packaging, the new collection will be available online this month at tarte.com, sephora.com and store.hbo.com in order to coincide with the show’s fourth season premiere on june 26. Further distribution will roll out to stores in july and while supplies last until October 2011 in the U.S. and Canada at Sephora, Ulta, ulta.com and HBo shop.

TARTE LAUNCHES TRUE BLOOD COLLECTION

C o s m e t i c W o r l d recently sat down with Betsy olum, general manager of beauty and merchandising strategy at HSN, to hear her thoughts on her new responsibilities and strat-egies moving forward.

CW: What are the key factors you consider when choosing a brand for HSN?Bo: First off, there has to be a place in our portfolio for it. It has to be a brand with products that are demon-strable and HSN quality, something we can make fun. The brand’s story is also very important, as well as the brand’s ability to manage their customer’s expectations.

CW: How are the brands able to keep viewers engaged when they aren’t able to test and sample the products?Bo: Beauty is touchable and olfactory no doubt, which makes the story and the storyteller extremely vital to a brand’s success through this channel. The on-air personality and host have to completely encompass the brand, and use their stories to capture the attention of the viewer in order to establish a connection and path to purchase.

CW: What changes do you hope to make in order to expand and increase the HSN beauty business?Bo: I’d like to take a closer look at emerging categories, like hair for example. I also think consumers are more demanding right now, and have less time, so it’s my job to edit down our portfolio line by line, brand by brand, and product by product so we are able to offer what our customers really need. There is room for growth; we just need to do our homework, and I’m not sure we’re there yet.
