THE WHAT? Charlotte Tilbury, celebrated makeup artist and entrepreneur, is launching a new collection of fragrances designed to evoke a variety of emotions using IFF’s cutting-edge technology. The collection, known as neuroscents, seeks to empower users by enhancing their mood in the same way high-quality makeup or skincare might.
THE DETAILS The launch marks a significant milestone for Charlotte Tilbury’s brand, which began in 2013 and aims to grow into a 1 billion-euro business across makeup, skincare, and now fragrances. This expansion into fragrances is seen as a strategic move to become a “tri-axis powerhouse,” leveraging the expertise of its parent company, Puig, which owns a range of niche and major fragrance brands.
THE WHY? The new fragrance line includes scents such as Love Frequency, More Sex, Cosmic Power, Magic Energy, Calm Bliss, and Joyphoria, inspired by Tilbury’s research and her aromatic experiences in Ibiza during her childhood. This collection utilizes proprietary technology from IFF, a leader in the study of the impact of scents on the brain, aiming to significantly enhance the user’s mood and emotional state.
Clinical aesthetics products refer to a category of products used in the field of medical aesthetics or cosmetic dermatology. These products are typically designed and formulated to be used under the supervision of healthcare professionals, such as dermatologists, plastic surgeons, or trained aestheticians. They are distinct from over-the-counter cosmetics in that they often contain active ingredients or formulations that require expertise in their application or administration.
Examples of clinical aesthetics products include:
-
Dermal Fillers: Injectable substances used to add volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Examples include hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvederm and Restylane.
-
Botulinum Toxin (Botox): Injectables that temporarily paralyze facial muscles to reduce the appearance of wrinkles caused by repetitive movements, such as frown lines and crow's feet.
-
Chemical Peels: Solutions applied to the skin to exfoliate and improve its texture. They can treat acne, pigmentation issues, and signs of aging.
-
Laser and Light Therapies: Devices that emit focused light or laser energy to treat various skin conditions, including acne, scars, and signs of aging.
-
Prescription Skincare Products: Formulations containing active ingredients like retinoids (vitamin A derivatives), hydroquinone, or prescription-strength antioxidants to address specific skin concerns under medical supervision.
