Dr.Hauschka Skin Care has introduced a regenerating line that aims to support the skin through its natural aging process.

Chaz Dean Rolls Out Eco-Friendly Line

Hollywood celebrity stylist Chaz Dean has launched a luxurious, eco-friendly line of skin and hair products called WEN ($10-$28). The amber-colored bottles lend an apothecary feel, but were chosen for their UV protection to prolong the products’ shelf life. Label design was created and photographed by Dean, and features images of rosemary, lavender, figs and cucumber, all products in his cleansing conditioners. The cleansing conditioning bottles use a pump delivery system; the oils use droppers. All bottles, pumps and labels use recycled materials.

ZO Creates New Skin Care Category

Spokespeople for the ZO Skin Health range, referred to as Rx Ceuticals, created by Dr. Zein Obagi, say he is not an ordinary dermatologist, nor is his new line an ordinary skin care line (the OTC line uses a retinol concentration 10-25 times higher than most OTC brands). The specialist claims that moisturizers can actually harm the skin by allowing skin cells to slow down; thus, his new signature line ($40-$325) is moisturizer-free. ZO’s Oclipse SPF 30 Sunscreen & Primer received the ICMAD award for Cosmetic Innovator of the Year in the package design category. In addition to the line’s luxurious color palette, Oclipse features a cool twist-and-turn actuator.
