An iconic lipstick at the heart of the 4th "Allmazing" platform contest

site-industries-cosmetiques A competition on the "Allmazing" platform to win an iconic lipstick.

The fourth edition of the contest organized by the online platform "Allmazing" created 2 years ago by Katia De Martino, Ceo of Essentia Beauty, has just ended. This year, the theme of the contest was: "Create a new iconic lipstick". Chloé Vincent, Emma Rochedix, Clémence Cornaert, all three students at the French school Esepac, as well as Rezziero di Maio from the Italian design school ISIA di Faenzah, have been awarded.

"Allmazing" was born from the intuition of Katia De Martino, an Italian-French entrepreneur, convinced of the potential of crowdsourcing as a source of inspiration, sharing and involvement of young designers. "The creation of the "Allmazing" platform is part of our desire to bring more and more creative added value to our customers", explains Katia de Martino, CEO of Essentia Beauty, a company with 20 years of experience in the development and manufacturing of private label cosmetics. "Allmazing" organizes creative contests mandated today by Essentia Beauty but also open to its customers. The goal? To bring out new talents at the origin of innovative projects in the field of fashion, beauty and design. Each contest, propelled on the web, takes the form of an event relayed in the press and on the social networks.
Here, the blogosphere takes the power by getting involved in the election of the best projects. An exciting adventure, in the heart of creation, where sharing dominates.

Create an innovative lipstick!

This fourth edition of the "Allmazing" contest, which was open to all creative people, had the objective of creating an innovative lipstick in terms of design or gesture. Participants were first asked to conduct a market analysis considering past achievements and future trends. Given the complexity of the evaluation of the different projects, Philippe Bonneyrat, an experienced packaging engineer in the beauty sector, was asked to evaluate the technical aspects of the projects in order to validate not only the aesthetics, but also the functionality and feasibility of the projects. The jury was composed this year of Sara Ravella, Executive Coach (former Director of Communication at L'Oréal), Jean-Marie Martin-Hattemberg, Expert at the Court of Appeal of Versailles, member of the International Perfume bottle (Association in the United States) and the French Perfumers' Society, Vincent Gallon, Editor of the Premium Beauty News website, and Katia de Martino, CEO of Essentia Beauty.

Awarded projects:

- "Paradise Bird" by Chloe Vincent, came in first for its very creative proposal in terms of design and use,

- "Totem" by Rezziero di Maio from the Italian School of Design ISIA di Faenzah who also proposed a very innovative design that combines several products.

- Emma Rochedix's "Click & Go" came in ex-aequo with Clémence Cornaert's "Click & Powder", both of them bringing functional innovation, all three coming from the Esepac School,

- "Totem" by Rezziero di Maio from the Italian School of Design ISIA di Faenzah who also proposed a very innovative design that combines several products.

Note that the winner received a check for 2,000 € and the three others a check for 500 €.
"The adhesion to this fourth edition of the competition "Allmazing" has been very positive, and the projects received have expressed creative capabilities and interesting and diverse innovations whether in terms of design, functionality and gestures," stressed Katia de Martino.

GM Group and Pascal Morabito celebrate 20 years of partnership

Société La Biochimie Appliquée SA - Cosmetics industry

To celebrate this event, GM Group is redesigning its line to make it more eco-responsible.
Groupe GM, world leader in the hospitality products sector, celebrates 20 years of partnership with French jeweler, sculptor and poet Pascal Morabito.
Pascal Morabito has been redefining artistic codes with his avant-garde jewelry and sculptures for almost 50 years, since 1970. He is best known for his many masterpieces, and the hotel lines are no exception.
In 2000, Pascal Morabito embarked on a completely new adventure, creating his first line of hospitality products with Groupe GM. In imagining his collections, Pascal Morabito sought to create something unique and contemporary.
He designed two hotel lines with Groupe GM: the Contemporary line and the Première Collection lineBoth are distinguished by their attention to detail and impeccable design. As its name suggests, the Contemporary line brings a touch of modernity to traditional hospitality products, thanks to its fresh, revitalizing fragrances and elegant design. Following the successful launch of the Contemporaine line, Pascal Morabito has brought out the Première Collection linea subtle blend of luxury and refinement in generously-sized bottles and soaps.
Pascal Morabito has sublimated the traditional hotel product line, placing opulence in the hands of guests around the world. He shares Groupe GM's dedication to luxury, style and quality, a commitment that has underpinned the success of this collaboration for 20 years.

In view of the results of these 20 years of partnership, Groupe GM is delighted to go even further and continue its collaboration with Pascal Morabito. Innovation is a key element of the Pascal Morabito brand, and Groupe GM wishes to redouble its efforts to promote it in the hospitality sector.
Over the years, GM Group has always strived to make responsible and informed decisions regarding its ecological footprint. In 2018, the Group unveiled its Care About Earthwhose mission is to encourage sustainable production through the use of oxo-biodegradable packaging and renewable raw materials. In line with Groupe GM's sustainability values, Pascal Morabito soaps are now pleated, rather than shrink-wrapped. This considerably reduces the amount of plastic used during manufacture, without compromising on the elegance of the products. In 2019, Groupe GM also intends to revisit its Ecopump design to make this product range even more pleasant for guests.

"We're proud to celebrate this milestone in our partnership with Pascal Morabito, and we're thrilled at the prospect of implementing even more sustainable ways to offer guests a luxury, quality experience," announces Laurent Marchand, President of Groupe GM. "Innovation through the use of sustainable materials and responsible product design is a key commitment of Groupe GM in our collaboration with Pascal Morabito, with the aim of developing products that have minimal impact on the planet, while making a lasting impression".

In addition to product design, Groupe GM also plans to improve its soap formulas for both customers and the planet. Pascal Morabito products will be made from palm oil sourced from sustainable palm groves, and their formulas will no longer contain EDTA or BHT, in order to offer guests healthier, more natural products.

Arcade Beauty creates a new generation of roll on samples

Perfume - Eau de Parfum Azzaro Wanted Girl

To accompany the launch of Wanted Girl, Azzaro is launching a flamboyant campaign in the image of this long-awaited fragrance. Arcade Beauty innovates with a daring sample: a roll-on ampoule (Seriplast) for an unexpected gesture.
After the launch of the men's fragrance Azzaro Wanted in 2016, here comes Azzaro Wanted Girl. For this high-profile launch, the Clarins group has chosen an original, trend-setting sample.

"Nicolas Marion (International Marketing Manager - Clarins Fragrance Group), "It's fun, girly and innovative... it's Wanted!" Isabelle d'Aspe (International Marketing Director - Clarins Fragrance Group).

In partnership with Sériplast, Arcade Beauty offers this ampoule which, once broken, reveals a roll-on tip for a precise, feminine gesture.

Aptar Reboul and Lush towards an ever more ethical cosmetics

Lipstick - Luxuriant

World leader in distribution systems for the cosmetics industry, Aptar Beauty + Home is committed to an ambitious environmental approach, and is now developing a range of more eco-friendly distribution solutions, particularly for make-up.

Ever greener packaging

The Aptar Group recently acquired Reboul, a specialist in metal packaging, particularly lipstick packaging, and all associated processes. Since 1921, Reboul has been shaping packaging for the finest make-up brands. Renowned for its cutting-edge expertise in metal transformation (from stamping to finishing), part decoration and multi-material assembly, it is also an expert in innovative lipstick mechanisms. It now enables Aptar to complete its catalog of expertise.

The first fruit of this new entity is a tube of refillable lipstick designed for Lush, a committed, vegan and cruelty-free cosmetics brand...

A commitment to responsible make-up

Every year, 800 to 900 million tubes of lipstick are sold worldwide, and most of them are made of plastic or contain plastic derivatives that are difficult to recycle. According to Lush, 25 billion pieces are thrown away every year in the UK (Source: everydayplastic.org). Inconceivable for the brand, which campaigns for more ethical cosmetics consumption, and a challenge for Aptar Reboul, who were invited to come up with an environmentally-friendly solution.

A major launch that shapes the future of lipsticks

Made from aluminum and brass, 40% of which has been recycled, the Aptar Reboul tube is plastic-free and designed to be fully refillable and recyclable. And it's elegant too. Lipstick refills are inserted after the black wax tab at their base has been removed: simply slide the stick into place using the slider, and the grape is in place until the next product cartridge.
A new way of consuming make-up while limiting waste.

"We discovered Reboul at the last PCD Paris show; it's one of only two companies in the world with the technology and experience to manufacture them on the scale required."

Turia: a cosmetic jar for people with a free spirit

Cosmetic industry - Packaging and labeling
Turia is the latest addition to the Q-Line jar family from international beauty packaging manufacturer and distributor Quadpack Industries. It is a compact 10-ml jar ideal for lip balm, solid fragrances and travel formats. Versatile and easy to decorate, Turia can be used for just about any type of product.
Quadpack presents Turia within the scope of the Oracle concept. Oracle is one of the product development themes from now until 2022, grouped together on a roadmap that enables us to determine future trends. Oracle responds to the desire for sensory experiences. Packaging has to be tactile and fragrant, it has to have a deeper meaning. Oracle brings a touch of mystical new-age and draws its inspiration from wellness and traditional skincare.
To help position the product, Quadpack describes Turia's ideal target, through one of the eight personalities developed by the "Design & Advanced Technologies" team: Georgina.
So, who is Georgina? In her own words: "I love fashion, and dressing to express my moods and feelings. I feel really liberated, so don't think you're imposing anything on me! Searching for deeper meanings is second nature, and I love it when my make-up and skin products "speak" to me, through unexpected effects and scents. I really love it when a product is as spontaneous as I am, but I can also appreciate simple, unpretentious things. My friends and I are constantly talking about our new finds on social networks, Instagram in particular. I share with them everything that represents my way of being. They are my tribe.
The Turia jar is aimed at people like Georgina, meeting the expectations and desires of this kind of outgoing, sociable personality. It fits in perfectly with the multi-masking trend for lips, and can be part of a set of products meeting different needs during the day, such as moisturizer, exfoliator, color, etc. Manufactured in SAN by Quadpack at its factories in Spain, using the injection molding process, Turia is designed for alcohol-free formulas.

Clarins, first partner of Plastic Odyssey Expedition

Clarins - Cosmetics Industry

They have supported the project from the outset. Today, they are pioneering partners of Plastic Odyssey. The Clarins brand, backed by the Clarins Group, has become an official partner of the expedition against ocean plastic pollution.

It was in 2017, thanks to Roland Jourdain, a great sailor who gathers around him the "doers" as he calls them, that the first meeting took place. Christian Courtin-Clarins has supported the Explore fund since its creation, which brings together tomorrow's explorers around Roland Jourdain and Sophie Varceletto, its two founders. "All the lands have been discovered, all the seas have been explored. But there's still one species out there discovering the future: new ways of living, eating and protecting our planet. This species is the New Explorers! explains Roland Jourdain.
The Explore Fund supports the development of numerous projects, including several expeditions: Under The Pole, Nomade des Mers and Plastic Odyssey.

Christian Courtin-Clarins was seduced by the vision of the Plastic Odyssey association while the project was still on paper, and decided to bring his group on board. As the association's first sponsor, he was instrumental in bringing the project to fruition: the creation of a demonstration vessel capable of converting plastic into fuel.
A year and a half later, the round-the-world expedition was taking shape, and it was only natural that Clarins should come on board. An "Official" partnership was signed for a 5-year period.

Clarins and Plastic Odyssey, a strong shared vision: respect for Nature and People

Christian Courtin Clarins has pioneered important environmental changes within the Group. Shocked by marine pollution while sailing in Asia, he took the pioneering decision in 1999 to ban plastic bags from all his sales outlets. Since then, our products have been designed to have as little impact as possible on the environment. Plants, an essential component of the products manufactured by the group, are grown using organic methods - respectful of the soil - and fair trade - respectful of people. This economic activity enables the development of essential infrastructures such as schools and health centers.

As a world-renowned group in the beauty sector, Clarins, alongside Plastic Odyssey, wishes to develop and promote a circular economy, more respectful of nature, to initiate sustainable change throughout the world.

Plastic Odyssey Expedition at a glance : 

Plastic Odyssey is a round-the-world expedition to reduce plastic pollution in the ocean and fight poverty.
The team's mission is to reduce plastic pollution in the ocean and poverty worldwide. To achieve this, Plastic Odyssey is developing low-tech and open-source solutions to either transform plastic waste into resources on a local scale, or limit plastic consumption in our society. In 2020, Plastic Odyssey will set off on a 3-year round-the-world expedition to promote the reduction and recycling of plastic waste on a boat that uses energy from plastic to propel itself forward. This world first is made possible by an innovative technology called plastic fuel or pyrolysis. Plastic Odyssey will sail along some of our planet's most polluted coasts (Africa, South America, South-East Asia), setting up small recycling plants at each port of call that can be adapted to meet specific needs. At the same time, the team will develop and experiment on board with alternatives to plastic and zero-waste solutions for a better future.
