I am so proud to introduce you to yet another product story that will once again demonstrate our willingness to build from the ground up to deliver the results you and your clients deserve. If you keep an eye on the skin care and cosmetic market like I do, you’ll see more and more products labeled for sensitive skin. There’s a good reason – demand for sensitive skin products is growing.
Along with the increase in environmental assaults, which we see around us every day … comes an increase in the number of sensitive skin conditions. There’s been a rise in diagnosed conditions such as rosacea and dermatitis, and evidence of diminished skin barrier function. What this means for you is that you most likely have more and more clients who have sensitivities. They’re looking for the “sensitive skin” label – and believe me, they can find it. But what’s behind that label in the drug and department stores? Usually, the manufacturer takes an existing product and removes any potential irritants. Then, they push the word “sensitive” into the product positioning. They know they’ve avoided the stuff that can irritate sensitive skin – you’ll see lots of “free of …” on the labels -- but they’ve only subtracted ingredients. They haven’t created the BEST product for sensitive skin, starting with their objectives through formulation and testing.
BeautiControl has! We knew that a product that will be truly effective for sensitive skin needs to be built from the ground up – it needs to stand on its own. It needs to be an original, not an adaptation. That’s the BeautiControl approach. We looked at the underlying reasons for increased skin sensitivity and newly available ingredients, technology and delivery systems to not only label for this growing market, but to deliver results.
The challenges to our skin are changing. Environmental shifts will bring more stresses to the skin’s surface and the layers underneath. Products for sensitive skin need to address these challenges head on. When you meet that guest with rosacea, or who suffers from fragrance sensitivity or chemical irritation – you’ll be ready with products that meet her needs and deliver results.
Dermatologist quality, a regimen formulated for the most sensitive skin conditions with the latest ingredients in anti-irritation, anti-redness and soothing. There’s nothing like them on the market now, and it will be years before anyone catches up – and by then, we’ll already be on to the next generation.
I’m proud to introduce the latest addition to our Skinlogics Brand: Skinlogics Sensitive. All the products are pH balanced, fragrance-, oil-, and dye-free. They are appropriate for daily skin care for anyone with sensitive skin.
These important products deserve to be front and center among our skin care products. They’re part of the Skinlogics brand because we want your clients to understand that the “M” in MRP serves women from their 20’s through their 50’s and beyond and women with sensitive skin of all ages. Skinlogics is our master brand for skin care solutions for everyone to maintain their skin’s health – and this is so important for women with sensitive skin!
The Skinlogics brand will carry through your Spa ESCAPES and customer care with a strong positioning to help you present and sell the products more easily. Skinlogics Sensitive adds a set of four products that, when used together, will help women with sensitive skin achieve optimum skin health – which translates into less redness, less irritation, and more support for younger-looking skin.
By the way, this expansion of our Skinlogics brand to include Skinlogics Sensitive means the end of Skin Equations. These important new products deserve to be front and center among our skin care products … now designed for women in their twenties, thirties, forties, fifties and beyond … and those with sensitive skin.
For BeautiControl, the label “Sensitive” means that we’ve done much more than remove the potentially irritating ingredients – we’ve developed products specifically for sensitive skin that will keep it healthy-looking, soothed and beautiful.
