THE WHAT? Parfums Christian Dior has announced Rihanna as the face of its J’Adore fragrance. The singer succeeds Charlize Theron who has fronted campaigns for the pillar scent for the past 20 years.
THE DETAILS Theron was named as jewelry and skin care ambassador for the LVMH-owned brand in May. According to a report published by WWD, the new J’Adore campaign featuring Rihanna was shot by Steven Klein and will debut on September 1, 2024.
THE WHY? There’s no doubt that Rihanna will bring the fragrance to the attention of new audiences and, with her own successful beauty brand under her belt, her appeal is proven. Veronique Courtois, CEO, Parfums Christian Dior told WWD, “The choice of Rihanna to be the next face of J’Adore was obvious for us. Not only is she one of the greatest and most powerful artists of all times, she is also multitalented, a successful entrepreneur, a committed humanitarian, a mother of two and a singular beauty.”
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.
