Clinique Launches The Party Collection For Winter 09

Clinique, leader in skin care and make up, has launched its latest colour collection called Black Tie Violets which includes new limited edition make up shades.

From violet berries to rich plums, purple is this season’s new red. To celebrate this purple reign of colour, Clinique has introduced the New Black Tie Violets 2009 colour collection. This sweetly feminine, yet bold line features a range of girly violet tones that mirror the festivity and allure of the season.

A full-face party look draws inspiration from Clinique’s best-selling Different Lipstick in A Different Grape and for an extra touch of glamour, key items are elegantly housed in luxurious, silver packaging.

Shimmering Stripes Blusher leaves a pearly, luminous look in rich plum shades. For application, the limited edition Powder Brush made of natural hair is available with a festive, shimmery, metallic handle especially for Christmas. The large dome allows for easy application of powder for smooth, even delivery. As with all Clinique brushes it utilises a unique anti-bacterial technology that protects the brush to ensure a high level of hygiene. It’s the perfect beauty tool to help make the festive season glow.

Colour Surge Eyeshadow Quad creates looks ranging from subtle and soft to a sexy and sophisticated smokey eye. Clinique eyeshadows build quickly and blend easily offering effortless sheen and luminosity. The perfect eye makeup can be finished with Brush-On Cream Liner an ultra smooth, creamy gel liner that provides the precision of a liquid liner enabling it to be laid on thick or thin, subtle or dramatic. Either way, this fast-drying, non-smudging, waterproof eye liner delivers a precise line every time.

Lips are treated to the must-have party lip gloss with Full Potential Lips Plump & Shine. A multi-purpose, high-shine lip gloss which instantly and over time makes even the most modest lips appear fuller, softer and more contoured. Layered over Clinique’s Different Lipstick in A Different Grape or High Impact Lip Colour SPF 15, a sophisticated lipstick that delivers superior colour and moisturising benefits from the moment it’s applied.

HCGSupplies.com Helps Shoppers Get Svelte for the Holidays

HCGSupplies.com, a pioneer of online HCG mixing supplies and instruction, announced today the availability of proven weight loss and weight maintenance resources, for the holiday season. Although HCGSupplies does not sell HCG, shoppers will find a extensive collection of mixing equipment, kits and information.

“With Thanksgiving and holiday indulgences right around the corner, savvy dieters can enlist the aid of weight-loss resources and books, such as Kevin Trudeau’s ‘The Weight Loss Cure “They” Don’t Want You to Know About’,” said Jim Sparks, marketing director, HCGSupplies.com. “The HCG mixing kits we offer were designed with readers of the Trudeau book in mind and both make great gifts for close family or friends who want to start a diet next year.”

The Kevin Trudeau Weight Loss Cure is a special weight loss cure that involves the use of the natural human pregnancy hormone HCG. This cure for obesity was developed in Europe over thirty years ago by Dr. Simeons. Trudeau has slightly modified the original weight loss protocol, but the basics are the same.

Dr. Simeons was a European doctor that discovered the use of HCG in successful weight loss in the 1950s. The HCG weight loss protocol has been adapted for modern use by Kevin Trudeau, and has a large following among dieters seeking to lose weight. Today, the HCG protocol offers a weight-loss solution that does not involve surgery or starvation. Finding a reliable source for information and supplies, as well as a good-old fashioned support network are critical to a successful weight loss campaign.

Offering all the latest HCG supplies and accessories, HCGSupplies.com was founded to give customers not only the best products for weight loss, but also thorough support so that people can properly understand how HCG can be used effectively in weight loss. While HCGSupplies.com does not sell HCG, the web site sells everything a person might need to properly use the product. Syringes, vials, HCG mixing kits, various mixing solvents, HCG recipes, and much more. For more information, please visit http://www.hcgsupplies.com.

New Visible Brilliance By Elemis

British spa and skincare brand Elemis has launched the latest product in its skincare range: an innovative skin radiance booster suitable for all skin types and ages.

With the skin containing minerals that are important in maintaining a healthy glow, Visible Brilliance from Elemis aims to bring brightness and luminosity back to skin that has been damaged by environmental pollution and lifestyle stresses. This new skin radiance booster from Elemis actively targets the skin’s metabolism to brighten, lift and re-energise fatigued and stressed skin.

Harnessing the power of multi-minerals including Copper, Zinc and Magnesium combined with Red Seaweed, Swiss Garden Cress, Blonde Pea Protein and Dew Bean, it restores and repairs the skin for instant radiance.

Noella Gabriel, Director of Product and Treatment at Elemis, commented: “Everyone’s lifestyle manifests itself in different ways. As a result, today’s ‘modern skin’ reflects the signs of stress, pollution, medication and early menopause. The skin starts looking dull, lifeless and imbalanced. To restore radiance we wanted to develop a lightweight serum that is easily absorbed and power-packed with minerals and vitamins that are key to the improvement of skin function and cell renewal. With Visible Brilliance, customers will see an instant glow.”

Upon application in the morning and evening, users of the new serum will notice an iridescent gold and silver appearance, resulting in a translucent glow to the skin. When combined with Elemis’ Pro-Collagen Marine Cream, the serum also helps to create an ideal base for makeup application.

Skin Supplies For Men Age Defense For Eyes By Clinique

Clinique has announced the launch of new Skin Supplies For Men Age Defense For Eyes, which is its latest defense for men who want to effectively address the look of the multiple signs of ageing around the eye area.

Long hours squinting at the computer screen, late nights, not enough sleep and sun damage eventually take their toll on the sensitive skin around the eyes of unsuspecting men. Upon the first signs of ageing, an increasing number of men are seeking immediate measures to restore the look of vitality to this vulnerable skin. Men now understand that maintaining their youthful appearance requires the right de-ageing tools.

Created exclusively for men and conveniently packaged with a flip-top cap, New Clinique Skin Supplies For Men Age Defense For Eyes is the latest addition to the men’s skin care and grooming range.

Men often don’t show signs of ageing until their 30s. Then, loss of firmness, lines and wrinkles suddenly appear. The skin around the eyes is roughly ten times thinner than the skin on the rest of the face and is extremely sensitive, so it’s important to take action.

Clinique understands these concerns and has formulated a lightweight men’s eye cream that delivers intense moisture and advanced treatment properties to combat the frustrating signs of ageing. Upon application, the look of dark circles and puffiness is immediately diminished and the eye area is instantly hydrated. With continued use, the appearance of firmness and elasticity is restored, reducing the look of lines and wrinkles. This powerful all-in-one eye cream helps build the skin’s barrier and contains soothing antioxidants that help protect against future damage.

New Clinique Skin Supplies For Men Age Defense For Eyes contains a cocktail of ingredients designed for moisturising, visibly reducing puffiness, diminishing the appearance of dark circles and protecting against future damage.

The new launch partners up with the mens 3-Step Skin Care. System, as well as Skin Supplies for Men Age Defense Hydrator SPF 15 for the most comprehensive anti-ageing routine for men.

New Clinique Skin Supplies For Men Age Defense For Eyes is Allergy Tested, 100% Fragrance Free, Ophthalmologist Tested, Dermatologist Tested, Non-Comedogenic, Oil-Free and will be exclusively available at www.cliniqueformen.co.uk from 1 September 2009 and Clinique counters nationwide from 1 October 2009.

New Superbalanced Powder Makeup SPF 15 Mineral Rich Formula By Clinique

Clinique has created a next generation of loose powder with foundation coverage. The Superbalanced Powder Makeup SPF 15 Mineral Rich Formula is the companion to Clinique’s best-selling liquid foundation, Superbalanced Makeup and is to be launched at the start of September.

New Superbalanced Powder Makeup SPF 15 Mineral Rich Formula By Clinique

Clinique’s Superbalanced Powder Makeup SPF 15 Mineral Rich Formula doesn’t require all the work and buffing other mineral makeup brands do to achieve a smooth, flawless application. To develop this powder makeup, Clinique used a unique processing machine which refines the powder into uniform platelets that are evenly distributed on the surface of the skin. The colour-true, finely milled powder provides an even application requiring less touch-ups throughout the day with its long-wear formula. Users simply shave the powder in a clock-wise direction for the desired amount and the powder can be applied with the conveniently housed, anti-bacterial brush. Oily areas and shine breakthrough are controlled throughout the day due to the mineral-rich formula which is sweat and humidity-resistant.

Superbalanced Makeup is the answer to the perplexing combination-skin dilemma. The foundation formulas know exactly where to go and what to do to solve the problem of oily skin yet its smart enough not to strip the drier facial areas in the process. In fact, the powder actually hydrates these dry areas at the same time.

Additionally, broad spectrum SPF 15 sun protection is provided with 3:1 UVB/UVA protection, meaning the UVB protection is three times proportional to UVA protection. This 3:1 ratio ensures UVA protection is provided and this all-physical sun screen is suitable for even the most sensitive skin.

Clinique has used minerals in a range of products since the brand’s inception. Blended Face Powder, which contains minerals, was created the very same year Clinique launched 40 years ago. The Superbalanced Powder Makeup SPF 15 Mineral Rich Formula is Clinique’s newest mineral infused creation touting a mineral composition including Magnesium, Calcium, Potassium and Zinc incorporated into the formula to promote healthy skin.

New Vitamin C Lip Smoothie Antioxidant Lip Colour By Clinique

Clinique is launching a new innovation in lip gloss to help protect and defend delicate lips. Bursting with antioxidant ingredients, Clinique introduces new Vitamin C Lip Smoothie Antioxidant Lip Colour, a healthy dose of luscious colour in six juicy shades, rich in moisture and shine, like an antioxidant fruit smoothie for the lips.

This vitamin packed formula is enriched with a cocktail of ingredients, including the key antioxidants, Açaí Berry and Pomegranate to help protect against environmental aggressors and Vitamin C to improve the look and feel of lips instantly and over time. Whilst a decadent blend of rich butters such as Shea Butter provide comfort, moisture and soothing benefits and help put the smooth in to Lip Smoothie.

To finish the fresh, healthy look High Impact Curling Mascara can be applied, along with a Quick Blush to cheeks for a naturally blushed look.

New Vitamin C Lip Smoothie Antioxidant Lip Colour is available in six lip-quenching, yet water-resistant, juicy shades ranging from opaque to shimmery: Fig-a-licious, Raisin the Bar, Pink Me Up, Nude-tricious, Goodness Grapecious and Rhubarbie.

Elemis Has Announced Details Of Its New See The Difference Eye Duo Set, Featuring Products Designed To Prevent The Signs Of Stress, Tiredness And Ageing Around The Eye Area

The new limited edition eye care set from Elemis features an Absolute Eye Serum, containing absolutes of rosewood, osmanthus, lavender and chamomile which helps to decongest and reduce dark circles and puffiness around the eye area whilst gently preserving, lifting and refining the eye tissue.

Also contained within the set f r o m Elemis is Pro Collagen Eye Renewal, a lightweight cream-gel that’s clinically proven to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eye area by up to 60% in just 28 days*.

The ‘See the Difference’ Eye Duo is a strictly limited edition and will only be available f r o m the 4th – 31st May at spas, salons, selected retail outlets nationwide and online, and comes presented in a faux leather jewellery box.

Jo Malone Launches Second Edition Kohdo Wood Collection

The World of Jo Malone introduces the second season of the limited edition Kohdo Wood Collection. Two captivating fragrances created as a modern interpretation of the ancient Japanese incense ceremony of Kohdo: the ritual appreciation of incense.

One of the three formalised Japanese arts, Kohdo is a ritual that has been handed down f r o m generation to generation in Japanese society, taking over thirty years to master.

Today, the Kohdo ceremony is a journey of discovery that is made with friends, where moods are manipulated according to the natures and personalities of scents. The blend of ingredients in the day and night fragrances have been designed to inspire the senses and encourage emotions. For the day: uplifting and invigorating, and for the night: soothing and sensual.

Through a blend of mandarin, sacred lotus blossom, bamboo and aloeswood, Lotus Blossom & Water Lily – Kohdo Wood day will awaken the senses, encourage energy, inspire confidence and focus the mind, making it the perfect daytime scent.

The New Tri-Enzyme Resurfacing Gel Mask By Elemis

Elemis, the pioneering British spa and skin care brand, has unveiled its new Tri-Enzyme Resurfacing Gel Mask, which is due for release in April 2009.

Elemis has recognised the problem of the skin’s cell renewal process declining as people age. In 2006, after three years of research, Elemis launched a skin care programme that facilitated natural cell renewal of the dead skin cells to reveal a fresher, more radiant skin. This range was the Tri-Enzyme Programme which won several beauty awards after its launch including being voted the CEW Best New Skincare range 2007.

Following on from this success is Elemis’ latest innovation; the new Tri-Enzyme Resurfacing Gel Mask. This new product is a highly active gel based mask that combines the Elemis-patented Tri-Enzyme Technology with anti ageing Tetra Peptide, Amazonian Acerola Cherry, White Truffle, Great Burdock, Erysiumum and amino acids to encourage effective resurfacing of the skin’s surface.

Elemis Tri-Enzyme Technology adapts to the individual’s micro flora and skin condition, an important factor given that everyone’s skin is different. When the skin’s acid mantle drops below 4.5pH, enzymatic action decreases dramatically, resulting in rapid ageing. Elemis Tri-Enzyme Technology uses the synergy of Organic Acids with micro-encapsulated enzymes to support the micro flora enabling safe and highly effective skin resurfacing.

Noella Gabriel, Elemis’ Director of Product and Treatment Development, said: “After years of research we wanted to bring clients a resurfacing gel mask that is an active system to ‘take home’. Sadly, in the last few years, we have constantly been confronted with customers suffering with damaged skin from too harsh and abrasive treatments which have left their skin unsafely thin on the surface, very sensitive and in need of TLC. At Elemis we are proud to be able to offer a safe, yet powerful resurfacing programme that works naturally with the skin’s natural resources. It is our promise that we only create products that adapt to the individual’s skin as everyone’s skin is different. This Gel Mask gives skin a remarkable, visible radiance.”

The Try-Enzyme Programme includes a resurfacing homecare regime designed to address concerns including fine lines and wrinkles, acne and superficial scarring and uneven pigmentation.

About Elemis:
timetospa (commonly referred to as Time2Spa) is the official online store for Elemis, the pioneering British spa and skin care brand.

Elemis is proud to partner with over 1200 luxurious spas and salons, 130 lavish cruise ship spas, British Airways Elemis travel spas and over 100 retail stores around the globe. Elemis treats over 5.7 million people each year and it has the single largest influence on trends and developments in the global spa and skincare industry. The successful combination of powerful natural ingredients, cutting-edge formulation technology and proven clinical trials has enabled Elemis to bring to market some of the most influential anti-ageing homecare products and professional spa-therapies the beauty industry has ever seen.

Youth Surge SPF 15 Age Decelerating Moisturiser By Clinique

For the past decade, Clinique scientists have worked with leading institutions from around the world to develop a revolutionary way to help slow down the visible signs of ageing while simultaneously promoting skin’s natural ability for cellular repair.

Armed with this cutting edge research and ground-breaking knowledge of Sirtuins, naturally occurring agents found in the skin which can lead to a youthful appearance, Clinique has been able to create a comprehensive anti-ageing skin care product for the woman looking to slow down the hands of time.

Clinique introduces the new patent-pending Youth Surge SPF 15 Age Decelerating Moisturiser. Inspired by Sirtuin activation technology and anti-glycation science and including UVA/UVB SPF 15 sun protection, the new Youth Surge SPF 15 Age Decelerating Moisturiser is a comprehensive anti ageing skin care product that helps to enable skin to prevent and repair the visible signs of ageing simultaneously. Sirtuins are vital to helping extend the function and life of cells. So vital, in fact, that they are known as “longevity genes”.

Inspired by this Sirtuin technology, new Youth Surge SPF 15 Age Decelerating Moisturiser features a complex which is proprietary to Clinique to help visibly restore a youthful look to ageing skin. Using Isonicotinamide, skin’s natural defense capabilities are heightened.

The new Youth Surge SPF 15 Age Decelerating Moisturiser also helps skin to boost its natural collagen production, maintain existing collagen, and correct the look of lines and wrinkles more effectively, delivering visible results faster.

Sugars found in ageing skin bind to proteins and form Advanced Glycation End-products(AGEs). The formation of AGEs contributes to the ageing process by exacerbating theaccumulation of damage to the skin. New Youth Surge SPF 15 Age Decelerating Moisturiser contains anti-glycation technology. This deceptive “double agent” technology works to help skin protect fragile and healthy natural collagen and elastin so the skin’s look of resilience and suppleness is maintained.

One of the biggest contributors to visible ageing is the sun. New Youth Surge SPF 15 AgeDecelerating Moisturiser contains photo-stable UV protection which helps skin resistpremature ageing by helping to guard against the UVA “ageing” rays which cause futurelines and wrinkles.

While no one can reverse ageing, new Youth Surge SPF 15 Age Decelerating Moisturiser can certainly slow its appearance down. With use, skin’s visible texture looks improved and noticeably firmer over time. Skin looks younger longer, by visibly correcting the appearance of past damage and delaying future signs of ageing.

The new Youth Surge SPF 15 Age Decelerating Moisturiser is available in three skin-typedformulas.

Very Dry to Dry Skin Types – a luxuriously, velvety cream that delivers intense moisturewhile providing comfort and cushion.

Dry Combination Skin Types – an ultra soft, emollient cream with a whipped texture tomoisturise and protect skin, leaving it soft and supple.

Combination Oily to Oily Skin Types – an exceptionally lightweight cream delivering moisture where it is needed most, leaving skin soft, smooth and feeling fresh. Oil-free.

Youth Surge SPF 15 Age Decelerating Moisturiser is available at Clinique counters nationwide from 1 March 2009

Clinique, leader in skin care innovation has announced the launch of its latest skin care moisturizer called New Comfort on Call

Clinique, leader in skin care and make-up innovation, has announced the launch of their latest advance in skin care moisturizer – New Comfort on Call.

Clinique, at the forefront of skin care research, has launched a new innovation in anti aging and allergy relief skin care, with the introduction of New Comfort on Call – Allergy Tested Relief Cream, a moisturiser designed for people with visibly reactive skin.

Clinique’s New Comfort on Call enhances the skin’s ability to protect itself against external irritants such as pollutants and airborne particles. Containing the rare Citrus Jabara Fruit Extract, indigenous to Japan’s Wakayama Prefecture region where it is cultivated, this moisturising cream helps to calm the appearance of irritated skin.

Wakayama villagers believe Jabara can prevent pollen allergies from the region’s abundant trees. The villagers eat and drink it continuously to build their resistance to the onslaught of pollen each spring. Even at the height of pollen season, they report that allergies are rare. Clinique’s New Comfort on Call is the first and only skin treatment to include Citrus Jabara Fruit Extract. It is the heart of Clinique’s unique Enviro-Soothe Complex, including potent anti-irritants Mangosteen and Glycyrrhetinic Acid (licorice extract).

Dermatologist tested, and suitable for even very sensitive skin, New Comfort on Call:

– Gives immediate relief to dehydrated, dry skin and visibly calms irritated skin
– Helps shield and protect skin against extreme weather conditions while maintaining moisture
– Is suitable for all skin types that become very dry and taut when exposed to frigid climates
– Helps reduce skin’s visible reactivity and instances of cracked, flaky or rough skin with continued use

Protecting the skin, especially in colder climates, is critical in maintaining its strength and resilience. Skin becomes more susceptible to the harmful effects of common allergens and environmental pollutants, such as airborne particles, when the skin barrier is impaired.

“Aware of the changes in the environment, we wanted to create a product that would not only assist in helping the appearance of reactive skin, but would help skin to naturally cope with fluctuations in weather and humidity. We incorporated a water-binding protein that improves and rebalances the skin’s moisture, building a stronger, more resilient skin barrier, better able to protect against both extreme weather conditions and harmful external airborne particles.” Commented Dr. Tom Mammone, Executive Director of Clinique Research and Development

New Comfort on Call provides an invisible protective shield to strengthen skin’s moisture and lipid barrier function, helping skin to be less susceptible and reactive to certain external triggers over time. New Comfort on Call helps relieve dry, cracked skin while it softens, smoothes and improves skin’s texture and condition. This intense, luxuriously rich cream-balm moisturiser provides immediate comfort and all day hydration.

New Comfort on Call will be available nationwide from 1 February 2009

Dog Pedometer – a gadget that aims to ensure dogs get enough exercise in order to fight the growing rates of diabetes in pets

Lloydspharmacy has introduced a new range of products, including the Dog Pedometer, in time for Christmas. Lloydspharmacy has released a new range of pet products with particular focus on the Dog Pedometer – a gadget that aims to ensure dogs get enough exercise in order to fight the growing rates of diabetes in pets. With the RSPCA estimating that as many as half of UK dogs are now overweight* and experts agreeing that one in 500 dogs will suffer from diabetes**, an obesity related illness, dog owners are being urged to consider their pet’s health this Christmas.

Healthcare specialists Lloydspharmacy have launched a new range of Christmas gifts for pets so that owners can give their favourite ‘family member’ something fun, stylish and good for them.

With recent research showing that 30% of dogs in the UK are overweight*** there is a very real chance that many pets could be in serious need of some more exercise. Furthermore, it is estimated that one in 500 dogs will develop diabetes during their lifetime – a serious medical condition affecting blood sugar levels, which are best controlled in animals by exercise along with diet and blood glucose monitoring.

All the evidence points to the fact that dogs need the right amount of exercise to stay healthy, yet many owners are blissfully unaware of how much exercise their pooches are actually getting – so they have no way of knowing if they are getting enough.

For this Christmas, Lloydspharmacy has launched a new Dog Pedometer, so that dog owners can give their beloved pet a gift that will benefit them well beyond the usual festive treats and bones, and give them the healthiest and happiest start to the New Year. With the capacity to count up to 99,999 steps and offering two different modes to fit smaller and larger animals, the Dog Pedometer will help keep track of a pet’s exercising so that owners can plan and monitor its improvement over time.

A lightweight and compact device, the electronic Dog Pedometer is designed in white and black in the shape of a canine’s face, so it will look charming on every four-legged friend. Sliding comfortably onto a collar, its one touch digital display provides instant feedback on the dog’s activity.

Other gifts in the Lloydspharmacy Christmas pet gift range include a black dog collar with silver paw motifs, which is available in two sizes and made from 100% polyurethane, and a cat collar, that comes in gold and silver, with diamante studs and a bell.

Diabetes is a serious condition, which led Lloydspharmacy to introduce free diabetes tests through their pharmacies.

About Lloydspharmacy:
Lloydspharmacy is the trading name of Lloyds Pharmacy Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Celesion AG based in Stuttgart. Lloydspharmacy has more than 1700 pharmacies across the UK and employs more than 16,000 members of staff. Lloydspharmacy offers free type 2 diabetes screening tests and free blood pressure tests.
