DISCOVER ASHLEY’S FAVORITES @ meetmark.com ASHLEY GREENE FOR EDiTORiAL ALTRUISM AND ACHIEVEMENT Altruism and ambition to achieve success can co-exist as we demonstrate in this issue of Beauty Fashion. Beauty industry luminaries who were recipients of the 2010 Cosmetic Executive Women’s Achiever Awards are celebrated not only for their business success but also for their humanitarian efforts in support of causes that help to make a better world. The beauty industry’s altruism extends to the fight against cancer, and that was evident as the beautymakers turned out at the 2010 DreamBall to honor P&G’s Ed Shirley, Vice Chair, Global Beauty & Grooming and Nordstrom’s Pete Nordstrom, President of Merchandising. The DreamBall raises funds for the American Cancer Society’s Look Good…Feel Better program which helps women take control of their appearance while undergoing cancer treatments. Waging the war against breast cancer is the global mission of the Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign (BCA) led by Evelyn Lauder, Senior Corporate Vice president of The Estée Lauder Companies. In this issue, we salute Mrs. Lauder’s efforts and highlight the activities of this year’s campaign during October symbolized by its iconic Pink Ribbon. The beauty industry is generous in its altruistic mentoring of up-and-coming candidates to be future leaders in The Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT)’s Cosmetics and Fragrance Marketing and Management Master’s Degree Program. The tenth anniversary of the Master’s Degree Program was recognized with a breakfast at which P&G’s Marc Pritchard, Global Marketing and Brand Building Office and ALLURE’s Editor In Chief Linda Wells were honored. Beauty industry executives serve as Mentors for the Master’s Degree Program and gain insight from this think tank for future leaders that they often apply to their own companies. The DNA of Beauty Fashion is how best to serve the customer, whatever the point of sale. WSL/Strategic Retail’s Wendy Liebmann gives the beauty industry and specifically retailers a wake-up call on how to survive in this new, social media- and online-driven environment. Janette Lutz of the Lutz International Consulting Group advises improving the customer’s experience by practicing the art of listening. In her article “Is Anybody Listening?” Ms. Lutz reminds us that listening is that personal ‘human touch’ in our tech-driven age. Ed Shirley makes a second appearance in Beauty Fashion this month in our coverage of CEW’s Newsmaker Forum. Mr. Shirley declared that companies must adapt to a changing economic climate and recognize the need to reconfigure the beauty industry’s strategies to connect with the shifting necessities of the consumer. Along with covering the latest launches and attending such sparkling industry events as the annual ALLURE Best of Beauty Awards and the Women In Flavor and Fragrance Commerce’s dinner honoring Beauty Avenue’s Benedicte Bron in this issue, we also give you a glimpse “Backstage” during New York City’s Fashion Week and a tour of New York’s second annual Fashion’s Night Out.

The 26th annual event, founded by Beauty Fashion’s John G. Ledes, directs proceeds to the Look Good…Feel Better (LGFB) program, a leading resource for women diagnosed with cancer. LGFB was established to help women confront rigorous cancer treatments with confidence by restoring a sense of normality. This program provides the necessary knowledge and tools for women to take back control of their appearance and in turn, their lives. Celebrity guest, Actor Isaiah Mustafa, using a tone concurrent with his role in P&G’s popular Old Spice commercials, humorously announced this year’s honorees Ed Shirley, Vice Chair, Global Beauty & Grooming, P&G and Pete Nordstrom, President of Merchandising, Nordstrom. Mr. Shirley and Mr. Nordstrom both reminded us that everyone has been affected by this devastating illness, and how important the LGFB program is to restoring the mental wellbeing of those who are being treated for cancer. Though the evening was filled with many enjoyable moments, the purpose of the DreamBall was hardly forgotten. Pamela Baxter, DreamBall Chairman and President and CEO of LVMH Perfumes & Cosmetics, revealed that almost 9,000 LGFB workshops have been held this year, assisting over 50,000 women with how to manage their appearance during cancer treatment. Included in this Mr. Shirley and Mr. Nordstrom (r.) with Dr. Herb Zaretsky and Dr. Arnold Baskies W’s Lucille Duran, Terry Darland of Parfums Christian Dior, LVMH Perfumes & Cosmetics’ Pamela Baxter, Art Spiro of Liz Claiborne Brands, Ms. Roark and Kelly Vanasse of P&G P&G’s Ed Shirley with Pete Nordstrom of Nordstrom Inc. O OCTOBER 2010 / 25 / B E A U T Y FA S H I O N THEPARTYSCENE 2010 Ms. Roark with Kari Siegel of the American Cancer Society CEW’s Carlotta Jacobson with Heidi Manheimer of Shiseido and Beauté Prestige International’s Nicholas Munafo NPR’s Greg Myre and Ms. Griffin Carmel High School classmates Joe Arcuri of P&G and George Cleary of Coty have a reunion at the DreamBall. Ms. Duran and NPD’s Lori Monaco and Diane Nicholson (r.) with Firmenich’s Westly Morris number was the 2010 DreamGirl, Jennifer Griffin, a National Security Correspondent for Fox News. Stationed on the front lines of action in Kabul, Baghdad and Afghanistan, she was a frequent witness to the greatest of global tragedies. When she was diagnosed with Stage 3 Triple Negative breast cancer in 2009, Ms. Griffin, a mother to three young children, knew she had to take her experiences at war and transmit them to her fight for her own health. Taking the best possible care of her body while enduring seventeen rounds of chemotherapy, Ms. Griffin was able to overcome her battle against cancer. But she also remembers her time as one of the greatest mental challenges. She knew she could not let the cancer consume her personhood, and with the help of LGFB, Ms. Griffin had a “weapon” against her sickness. “Cancer steals what it means to feel beautiful,” she said, and LGFB was there to help restore that sense of confidence. The evening ended with a special performance by Singer Alexa Ray Joel and the gratifying thought of all of the women who will be helped by LGFB, as this year’s DreamBall raised a remarkable total of nearly two million dollars.

When 300-some department store retailers from around the globe met in New York City at the Global Department Store Summit a few months ago, one thing was clear; they had seen the end of the world, faced it and finally recognized the need to change. That was a stunning revelation in an industry that, until this Global Economic Crisis, had pretty much assumed it would survive come hell or “normal” economic downturn. Steve Sadove, CEO of Saks Fifth Avenue, the host retailer of the conference, captured it elegantly, “Never let a good recession go to waste.” To put it more bluntly, once you’ve been through a teeth-rattling, floor-dropping-out-from-under-you, shoppersfleeing-to-the-exits experience, you have no choice but to finally face reality and re-engineer your proposition fast or else. And that, to the industry’s credit, is what is beginning to happen. Selfridges (UK) and Lane Crawford (Hong Kong) department stores are two great examples. They focus, laser-like, on the needs of fewer, yes fewer, higher income customers with everything they do, from the brands they carry, exclusives, the store experience, service, marketing in all, every touch point they deliver on. Aspirational shoppers are welcome, but not the focus by any means or for anything. Selfridges’ CEO Paul Kelly talked about the fact that during the recession the company actually reduced its sales activity dramatically to focus on far fewer sales events. And it eliminated beauty gifts-with-purchase promotions completely. Yes, you read it correctly. Completely! Instead the retailer enhanced the quality and value of everything else it did. So it no longer needed to discount excessively to get shoppers in the door. The strategy was a success, even during the depths of the recession. In the US, too, department stores are finally beginning to change, rationalizing the number of stores, creating smaller store formats more appropriate to new markets and new customers. Some are now using the Internet more effectively as the 24-hour store. They are doing a more effective job of creating a good-better-best mix of brands so there is less need to discount to give shoppers a lower-priced option. And many, from Saks to Bloomingdale’s to Neiman Marcus, are expanding or opening off-price outlet stores to provide aspirational shoppers access to the store and brands. Behemoth Macy’s has finally recognized that one size does not fit all of its 800-some stores. It is now working hard to understand its different shopper segments and how to serve and satisfy them in a more customized way under its My Macy’s initiative. It hired DunnHumby, the research company credited with helping UK supermarket retailer Tesco achieve its long-term success, to assist it. Still, there is much to be done if US department stores are to remain a viable retail proposition over the coming years. When affluent women now shop big box discounters like Wal-Mart or Target or Costco every day, when access to information and customer service is now only a click away, when the new global department store is called Amazon and the new designer fashion store is called Net-A-Porter, US department stores still have much to do to provide real value and justify their existence. A start has been made but much is still to be done. Wendy Liebmann is CEO and “Chief Shopper” of WSL Strategic Retail, New York-based Global Retail Strategists and Shopping Futurists and Authors of How America Shops® BF OCTOBER 2010 / 27 / B E A U T Y FA S H I O N THEBEAUTYBIZ As I See It THELATESTLAUNCHES According to Fragrance Trends Forecast Report 2010 from The Fragrance Foundation, fragrance blogging is performing a public relations function. “Bloggers are extremely important, and they mustn’t be ignored.” However, The Fragrance Foundation warns, “be on the lookout for inauthentic blogs. A true blog has an independent voice.” The report states that blogs have a big impact on the future of fragrance, can be used as a product development tool and a new way to supplement traditional market research and focus groups. Bloggers provide an open forum where they share honest views and have conversations with consumers. For younger consumers, blogging is a great word-of-mouth public relations tool. The Fragrance Foundation’s report affirms that brands will continue to use social networking—blogs, Facebook— to directly interact with consumers or fans. FEMININE MYSTIQUE “A beautiful woman is sensual and strong. She exudes confidence and sophistication from the inside out,” affirmed Francisco Costa, Women’s Creative Director of the Calvin Klein Collection. It expresses the inspiration for the new Calvin Klein Beauty. This woman is authentic and true; she is accomplished and she believes in the power of self-knowledge, gained from the life she’s lived. She is at once feminine and strong and shapes her destiny with a charismatic allure and determined strength. Her true beauty lies within.

The flacon is topped with a metallic silver cap, which evokes the sculptural shapes fundamental to the Calvin Klein aesthetic. The sleek, white, glossy outer carton features a vibrant silver halo, while the inner carton exudes a soft, yellow glow to reveal warmth, light and radiance. The carton’s silver and white decoration represents signature Calvin Klein colors that suggest the clean, spare shift dresses from the Calvin Klein Collection Runway Show.

In a spectacularly beautiful and educational event, journalists and other guests followed the prism-like angles of light rays through a dark tunnel before emerging at the entrance to the immense glass structure of the “grande serre” (giant greenhouse) at the Parc André Citroën in Paris. In this stunning environment, guests were treated to a thought provoking and illuminating presentation on the Vital Light product and story, which French TV Journalist Boris Ehrgott, had coordinated with style and good humor. Clarins Critical Light Presentation in the Grande Serre, Parc André Citroën Guests followed a ray of light through a dark tunnel before emerging into the presentation. Jean-Jacques Annaud, Boris Ehrgott, Lionel de Benetti and Jean-Pierre Nicolas speak at the presentation To illustrate the important role of light and luminosity for the appearance of beautiful skin, renowned Photographer and Oscar-winning Film Director, Jean-Jacques Annaud¸ led a rapt audience in a tutorial on lighting techniques and optical illusions for the enhancements of stars’ (and our own) complexions. Mr. Annaud very generously shared a few tips, none of which were lost on the journalists. Building on this, Lionel de Benetti, President of Clarins Laboratories and Logistics, shared information gained from Clarins research, revealing that the skins’ capacity to reflect light diminishes after the age of 40 and that after 50, the skin has already lost 34% of its vital luminosity. Vital Light was developed to defy these visible effects in aging skin. President and Founder of Jardins du Monde and Clarins’ Botanist, Jean-Pierre Nicolas, who works upstream in the production chain of Clarins products, spoke of his search for new plants and active ingredients for Vital Light. “We owe everything to nature,” he said, “For the first time ever, our botanical researchers have brought together the unrivalled, revitalizing benefits of three exceptional plant extracts, Cochlearia officinalis, Spergularia and Waltheria, in a unique skincare formula. Botanists call them ‘pioneer plants’ due to their remarkable ability to recreate biodiversity in some of the most desolate areas on Earth.” Mr. Nicolas is also the President and Founder of Jardins du Monde, an NGO of which Clarins is a partner, whose aim is the development and use of medicinal plants, particularly for the improvement of health for people without access to conventional medicine.

The idea may seem strange, but the unusual combination placed the young entrepreneur, Vanessa Araujo as one of the ten worldwide finalists for the United Nation’s Empretec Women in Business Award 2010. Kapeh’s creator, Vanessa Araujo Ms. Araujo was chosen for her performance in leading Kapeh (“coffee” in Mayan dialect), a company that manufactures soaps, moisturizers, shampoos, conditioners and other cosmetics all made from coffee extract. The brand was created less than three years ago, but according to Ms. Araujo, the inspiration came from her childhood, when she used to play on her family’s coffee farm, located in the traditional coffee-growing region of southern Minas Gerais. A graduate in biochemistry, coupled with a fascination for the beauty industry, Ms. Araujo devoted three years of studies and research to assess the real cosmetic benefits of coffee. “My partner Denise Mesquita and I ended up discovering powerful energizing and antioxidant properties of coffee for skincare,” said Ms. Araujo. “Moreover, we realized the importance of adding value to such a substantial product for the Brazilian economy.” With an initial investment of only $170,000, the 32-yearold entrepreneur watched her small business gain fame and credibility in a short time.

The new advertising image for the BCA’s 2010 campaign Illumination Initiative in 2000 to add an exciting and unique dimension to “The Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign, that enlightens women and raises awareness by the flip of a switch,” Mrs. Lauder expressed. To showcase BCA 2010, a provocative and inspiring campaign was conceived by James Gager, Senior Vice President, Creative Director of M·A·C and Toni Lakis, Vice President of M·A·C Design. The theme of this year’s campaign was inspired by a famous phrase used by Estée Lauder—Telephone, Telegraph, Tell-A-Woman, her famous method of “High-Touch” used to reach consumers. That powerful message has been reinterpreted to communicate BCA’s philanthropic mission for today’s modern and fast-paced culture. The ad image was shot by Photographer Michael Thompson. It is Mrs. Lauder’s call-to-action to conquer this disease once and for all. “When I launched the BCA campaign in 1992, breast cancer was only spoken about in whispers,” Mrs. Lauder explained. “Eighteen years later, countless survivors, supporters, politicians and celebrities have joined in our mission. Major strides actually have been made, though we still have a long way to go. We continue to make a real difference, and through our combined efforts of raising awareness and raising funds for research, breast cancer will become a distant memory.” BF O C T OB OBER 2010 / 67 FA S H IO ION / B E A U T Y FAS DECADE BEAUTY (continued from page 43) Procter & Gamble (P&G) and Linda Wells, Editor-in-Chief of ALLURE magazine.

Immediately following my own Vital Light treatment, I was struck by the fact that in addition to seeing more light and fullness in my face, my whole body felt relaxed and toned. I mentioned this to Dominique Rist, International Treatment Development Director and told her that when I’m stressed, I usually opt for a body treatment instead of a facial. Ms. Rist reminded me that “a facial can be just as relaxing and toning as a body treatment, because there are more nerve endings in the face than on any other part of the body.
