Spain's Puig reveals a new fragrance to complement the Portraits Penhaligon's collection. Mr Thompson is a discreet, dedicated butler, keeper of family secrets and spectator to the Penhaligon's family dramas.

This elephant-shaped hood is made up of three parts: one for the animal's head and two for the tusks. TNT Group has gone to great lengths to convey the majesty of the elephant. For an ergonomic closure, there's a PP bouterollé insert that adheres to the ridge, featuring a gold-anodized aluminum chimney and a gold-galvanized brass tray. The gold galvanizing also gives this 100% recyclable zamak hood its distinct, shimmering color.

This piece showcases TNT Group's expertise and sublimates the astonishing Penhaligon saga. TNT Group, manufacturer of premium primary and secondary packaging, has already produced the 18 previous caps for Penhaligon's Portraits collection, and returns with an equally detailed and refined creation.

The Penhaligon's Portraits collection celebrates the English establishment, humor and provocation. The personality of each of these aristocratic characters is reflected in their animal-head hoods, each with a specific symbolism. The essence of Mr. Thompson's character is reflected in notes of black pepper, oak wood and bewitching vanilla.

Sepiclear G7

In recent years, consumers have been looking for finished products with a short Inci list, no controversial ingredients, limited environmental impact and a high level of naturalness. As such, formulators are adapting by selecting ingredients that meet these expectations.

In response to this demand, Seppic explored the potential of Sepiclear G7 (Heptyl Glucoside), its multifunctional eco-responsible solubilizer, and revealed its preservation-boosting properties.

site-industries-cosmetiques A table showing the percentages of different types of energy.

The challenge tests, carried out in accordance with ISO 11930, proved that Sepiclear G7 can reduce the percentage of preservatives used to reach criterion A. As a result, formulators can use fewer preservatives and still achieve the same level of protection.

This is due to its hydrotropic property, which increases the solubility of preservatives in the formula and reduces water activity, thus enhancing the performance of the preservative system.

Sepiclear G7 is a natural 100 % liquid1 easily biodegradable2It is used as an effective solubilizer for perfumes and essential oils, with non-foaming properties. It has good make-up-removing efficacy and improves the microscopic appearance of gel-creams without impacting viscosity.

French dermo-cosmetics and pharmaceuticals group Laboratoires Pierre Fabre worked closely with Albéa Tubes to reinvent the packaging for its iconic Klorane baby care product: organic Calendula moisturizing cream. For this new packaging, Pierre Fabre chose Albéa Tubes' paper tube in its kraft version. The tube incorporates a minimum of 50 % of FSC-certified paper.

Klorane baby face and body moisturizer with organic Calendula is now protected in a paper tube from Albéa Tubes. This cardboard cosmetic tube offers a significant reduction in plastic, replacing it with a paper-like material certified as organic.

Combined with Albéa Tubes' EcoFusion Top system, which fuses the head and cap for further weight reduction, this tube reduces the amount of virgin plastic used for Klorane's product by 74 %, compared with its previous version. In line with Pierre Fabre Laboratories' and Albéa Tubes' commitment to the circular economy, this packaging is technically recyclable in the carton stream.

"This new solution is a major step forward in our commitment to reducing the carbon footprint of our products, says Frank Legendre, Director of Packaging, Innovation and Development at Pierre Fabre. It supports both our brand philosophy and our CSR strategy to provide our customers with an effective, safe formula combined with eco-designed packaging."

"This development represents an important step in our long-term partnership, adds Aude Laclaire, CSR Manager at Albéa Tubes. We are proud to support Pierre Fabre's sustainability objectives with this minimal-impact packaging combining two of our latest innovations."

Coverpla accompanies Koesio fragrances

Since the beginning of the summer, Koesio fragrances have been distinguishing themselves through a particularly distinctive customer experience. For its development, the young brand chose Coverpla, for its proximity, and for its offer of turnkey personalization. In addition, Coverpla is responsible for the industrial production of two standard refillable bottles. 

6e sens, 8e merveille, OQP, En vogue, Pacifik..., the brand's 20 fragrances are divided into four families for women, men, young men and girls: "because in adolescence, personality takes shape, moods can be fragile, tastes oscillate, arrogance masks shyness..."says Eric Moraldo, the brand's creator. 

To achieve this, Eric Moraldo has designed his eaux de parfum on the basis of redefined families (marine, gourmand, musky, powdery...). A questionnaire evoking life situations is used to identify the consumer's olfactory profile and recommend a fragrance. With this offer of a selective, refillable fragrance with identity, Koesio Parfums has adopted a clearly differentiating positioning.

Packaging by Coverpla

In the Coverpla catalog, the brand has chosen three 50-ml bottles: Vertigo, Ulysse and Venus. They are accompanied in turn by the Top Passion aluminum-capped cap, selected in black and shiny silver, then by the Galet and Gény models, both injected in Surlyn. Coverpla then supplies matching pumps and pump covers. This mix & match is then customized with various lacquers chosen by the brand.

Rechargeable or nothing

Eric Moraldo was keen to offer a refillable 100 % collection, but didn't want to compromise on packaging design. Among his choices in the Coverpla catalog, only the Vertigo model was available in refillable version. Venus and Ulysse, on the other hand, had recently been offered by Bormioli Luigi in a variety of ring types, but were not yet produced in screw-on rings. Under the impetus of the project, the Italian glassmaker switched to industrial production. Both references are now available in refillable versions. 

"Coverpla and I have put our hearts and expertise into this launch, says Eric Moraldo. It's been quite a collaboration, which I hope will continue. Thank you for your technical, industrial and human support.

This is the very first investment byopen innovation by L'Oréal in China, via its Shanghai Meicifang Investment Co, Ltd (Meicifang) fund, supported by Bold (Business Opportunities for L'Oréal Development), the group's venture capital fund for strategic innovation. It is also the first investment in connection with the Big Bang Beauty Tech Innovation Challenge, launched by L'Oréal four years ago in China, thus confirming the success of our local ecosystem ofopen innovation.

Founded in 2017 by renowned scientist Professor Jiaheng Zhang, Shinehigh Innovation is a Chinese start-up specializing in cutting-edge supramolecular chemistry. Its intelligent molecule self-assembly technology enables previously impossible combinations of ingredients, resulting in even more effective and longer-lasting finished products to serve our consumers. 

This partnership will enable L'Oréal to unleash the full potential of raw materials, overcoming known limitations such as incompatibility, instability and diffusion, and develop innovative formulations with expanded properties for skin, hair and scalp.

Barbara Lavernos, L'Oréal Group Executive Vice President, Research, Innovation and Technology, said: "China's unique and highly dynamic start-up ecosystem is a particularly important catalyst for L'Oréal's future innovation strategy.

This collaboration with the world leader in supramolecular technology applied to the cosmetics industry will enable us to bring revolutionary performance products to market. We are delighted to enter into this exclusive beauty partnership with the Shinehigh team."

I'm delighted to see that all our efforts have paid off today: investing in Shinehigh Innovation, winner of the 2022 edition of Big Bang. Today, Big Bang is expanding to North Asia, and we look forward to inventing the future of beauty in the North Asian and global markets with many other partners."

Bastille Parfums strengthens its traceability with digital solutions from Avery Dennison

AD-SMT-Bastille-Partnership

Bastille Parfums, a young French company creating sustainable and natural fragrances, presents a new transparency initiative that combines the use of RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology with QR code technology. This combination provides greater visibility across the supply chain, and offers a unique customer experience by sharing valuable information about each product. 

With Avery Dennison's RFID sensor technology, Bastille can track and trace tagged products throughout the supply chain, improve inventory management and limit counterfeiting. Traceability also enables brands to identify inefficiencies, better serve customers and optimize operations, from raw material sourcing to consumer purchase.

Using the atma.io connected products platform means that each product is assigned a digital identity (or digital twin). Thanks to this identification, Bastille can track each product at every stage of the supply chain, from source to consumer. Real-time order tracking also enables Bastille to gain greater precision as soon as fragrances leave the factory. In addition, the brand also has access to consumer interaction analysis, enabling it to better understand customer engagement with different fragrance ranges. 

In response to consumers' desire for more information about ingredients, Bastille's new transparency initiative, which combines a serialized QR code with an RFID label, currently concerns the following two products: the best-selling Pleine Lune and the new Paradis Nuit fragrance. A simple scan of the QR code using a smart device, such as a smartphone or tablet, will lead Bastille users to a unique digital experience, providing information on the fragrances' origin, bottling date, olfactory values and precise composition. The use of a unique digital identifier for both the RFID tag and the QR code guarantees a unique experience with every product interaction.

In return, Bastille will benefit from information on customer interaction and engagement with its products that will help it to better understand their behavior and identify trends. This new communication channel is an effective way for Bastille to get closer to its customers, create a strong bond with them and strengthen their loyalty through an enriched experience.

The collaboration involves Avery Dennison's comprehensive technology solution and customer experience experts, SharpEnd, a global design studio whose mission is to help brands embrace the Internet of Things. The collaboration also includes Bastille's exclusive manufacturer, Socos Services.

Sophie Maisant, CEO of Bastille, explains: "Our commitment to the highest standards of transparency is part of our DNA. We believe that transparency is essential to the mutual trust we have long enjoyed with our customers. With this new initiative, we are letting our customers know that we hear their desire for more information about fragrance compositions. For our part, we are committed to disclosing every ingredient, including its origin, provenance and date of manufacture."

Uwe Hennig, Senior Director Market Development Emea & Nem, Avery Dennison Smartrac, adds: "For cosmetics brands to remain competitive in the changing retail landscape, they must create transparency throughout the supply chain and offer differentiation through unique customer experiences. We are proud to partner with Bastille to create this differentiating end-to-end solution for the beauty and fragrance sector."

Pierre Fabre Laboratories acquire a stake in MiYé, a start-up specializing in hormonal well-being

MiYé, the French brand of skincare products and dietary supplements dedicated to women's hormonal balance and well-being, announces that Laboratoires Pierre Fabre has taken a stake in the company, which was founded in 2020. This first capital increase will enable MiYé to accelerate its development by benefiting from the medical expertise of Pierre Fabre Laboratories and their knowledge of the pharmacy channel.

MiYé, "the good friend" in Provençal, is a brand created by women for women, to help them live better with their hormonal variations and improve their quality of life from puberty to menopause. Co-founded by Caroline de Blignières and Anna Oualid, with the support of a scientific committee specialized in the hormonal system, MiYé has chosen to tackle the hormonal well-being market. In an innovative and disruptive way, the brand targets the root causes of often taboo and misidentified symptoms due to hormonal imbalances. Today, it offers a complete range of 13 products (5 dietary supplements and 8 dermo-cosmetics) focused on performance, naturalness, safety and ease of use.

Since their origins in 1962, Pierre Fabre Laboratories have been active in women's health through a broad portfolio of drugs and dermo-cosmetics. Through their investment subsidiary Pierre Fabre Invest, they pursue a strategy of acquiring stakes in fast-growing start-ups whose positioning complements their established dermo-cosmetics brands. Pierre Fabre Invest has thus become the majority shareholder in Ladrôme Laboratoire (specializing in organic skincare and cosmetics) in 2021, and the sole shareholder in Même Cosmetics (specializing in wellness treatments for cancer patients) in 2022. Today, she becomes MiYé's sole minority shareholder alongside the two co-founders.

Caroline de Blignières, co-founder of MiYé, comments: ". Pierre Fabre Laboratories' acquisition of a stake in the company two years after our launch is a tremendous recognition. It's an invaluable opportunity to strengthen our R&D resources to promote the democratization of women's hormonal health and, together, redefine the rules of a new ecology for the female body that is holistic, transgenerational and, above all, safer.

Anna Oualid, co-founder of MiYé, adds: "When we launched MiYé, we set ourselves an ambitious goal: to democratize a medical subject using cosmetics codes that are as close as possible to women's routines, via premium, multi-channel distribution. Who could be more legitimate than Pierre Fabre, historically committed to women's health, to support us today?"

This strategic alliance with Laboratoires Pierre Fabre will enable MiYé to accelerate its R&D investments, carry out clinical studies, reinforce the scientific and medical backing of its flagship products, and continue its development in the pharmacy and parapharmacies channel. In the short term, MiYé is preparing to develop an awareness-raising and personalized support program via online consultations with naturopaths and micro-nutritionists.

Frédéric Ennabli, CEO Pierre Fabre Dermo-Cosmétique, explains: "Hormonal balance is a major challenge to which dermo-cosmetics must be able to respond. With MiYé, Caroline de Blignières and Anna Oualid have succeeded in supporting women from puberty to menopause. They have created a brand with a strong territory, with specialized, cutting-edge products that are now recognized by consumers, such as the Cycles Heureux Serum.

In joining forces with MiYé, we are committed to contributing our medical and dermatological expertise to developing the best possible solutions for all skin types affected by hormonal variations.

In this way, we are continuing Pierre Fabre's long-standing commitment to women's health issues and enabling pharmacists to respond to them in the best possible way, whether through our care products, our medicines, notably by pioneering the treatment of iron deficiency anaemia, a very common condition during pregnancy, and now through this strategic partnership."

site-industries-cosmetiques A perfume bottle with a floral fragrance.

The high-end perfume house Atelier Materi announces a first round of financing of 1 million euros to accelerate its international development in the niche perfume market. Accompanied by Colibri Advisory and DS Avocats, this financing operation was carried out with Crédit Agricole Aquitaine Expansion and a group of private investors. 

Contemporary vision and handcrafted luxury

Founded in late 2019 by Véronique Le Bihan, Atelier Materi offers a singular, contemporary perfumery where each fragrance revisits a raw material, meticulously crafted by the perfumer. The House combines its contemporary outlook with artisanal know-how, as seen in its dark blue bottle adorned with a concrete cap with golden highlights, entirely handcrafted in a Parisian workshop.

Between authenticity, creativity and responsibility, Atelier Materi promotes the idea of a new luxury that takes the time to make.

The responsible luxury House, which has enjoyed triple-digit growth every year since its launch, is present in 130 selective points of sale across twenty countries. The eight-perfume collection is available in department stores (La Samaritaine in Paris, KaDeWe in Berlin, Harvey Nichols in Ryad...), independent perfumeries (Jovoy in Paris, Le Nez Insurgé in Bordeaux, Spitzenhaus in Zurich...) and concept stores (Dover Street Market in Paris, 10 Corso Como in Milan...).

Fundraising drives Atelier Materi's dynamism 

By raising 1 million euros, the fashion house intends to accelerate its deployment (international distribution and e-commerce sales) by strengthening its teams and raising its profile.

Colibri Advisory (Julie Lauré and Pierre-Jean Gaudel) and the law firm DS (Claire Champion, Partner and Pierre-Louis Boret, Senior Associate) supported the fundraising.

"In creating Atelier Materi, I wanted to propose a new vision of perfumery, more human and responsible, by putting nature, craftsmanship and local production back at the heart of the project, says Véronique Le Bihan, founder and president of Atelier Materi. I would like to thank our various investors, who share the same values, for supporting us in this new chapter of our history, enabling us to accelerate our development with confidence.

Xavier Hittos, Head of Crédit Agricole Aquitaine Expansion, adds: "Atelier Materi is a French haute parfumerie house that emphasizes its creative commitment while adhering to a responsible luxury approach. Combining contemporary vision and artisanal know-how, the company is experiencing sustained growth, with genuine international recognition. We are proud to participate in a new phase of its development.
