ADVERTORIAL
THE LAUNCH OF A NEW SKINCARE BRAND
LAUNCHED IN SEPTEMBER 2020 IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PANDEMIC Hydromerse Skin Recovery System is fast gaining popularity despite the current lockdowns. The owner of the company, Graham Stevens had a dream to introduce an amazing skincare line with incredible func�onality and benefits and so Hydromerse was borne. We spoke with Graham recently about his new venture. APJ Q1: GRAHAM, TELL US ABOUT THE PRODUCTS THAT YOU HAVE DEVELOPED AND HOW THEY COME ABOUT? Our first product we created was the Hydromerse Skin Recovery System. It is a “sheet-free” hydra�ng and cooling skincare mask that can be applied to any part of the face or body. It won’t slip nor slide off as it has a unique two-step applica�on method - the Hydromerse gel which cools, hydrates, soothes and refreshes the skin, and the spray which ac�vates an outer layer barrier and seals the hydra�ng gel in place, exactly where you want it to be. We designed Hydromerse to be flexible for clinics to use and sell as a mask that can be worn before, during, or a�er an aesthe�c procedure with the rest taken home by the client for con�nued use between visits, or as a stand-alone product for sale in the clinic whenever someone wants a hydra�on boost. The idea for Hydromerse was born a�er I had an in-clinic skin treatment that le� my face feeling very hot, dehydrated, and uncomfortable. I looked for something to apply and couldn’t find anything on the
market that would cool, soothe, while also hydrate my skin, and stay in place if I was sat up or walking around. I wanted something I could use at home a�er an aesthe�c procedure that allowed me to con�nue in my daily tasks without slipping off my face. APJ Q2: HOW IS HYDROMERSE SKIN RECOVERY APPLIED AND WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS IT OFFERS? Our Skin Recovery System can be applied in the clinic and by the client at home using a silicone applicator. The benefit for both the clinician and client is that the gel mask stays in place with our unique barrier technology. It hydrates, cools, and soothes the skin and there is no sheet mask to throw away. It can be applied where it is needed most. The spray seals in the gel mask meaning it doesn’t dry out on the skin and can be worn as long as required. It is also oil free, silicone-free, colour-free, fragrance free, ethoxylate/ parabens and sulphate free so there is no poten�al irrita�on. APJ Q3: WHAT SKIN-TYPES AND CONDITIONS WOULD BENEFIT FROM THIS TREATMENT? It is suitable for all skin types, those concerned with dry skin, fine lines, wrinkles, and redness. It is also great as a hydra�ng mask for men as from experience sheet masks don’t stay in place if you have a beard! APJ Q4: WHAT INGREDIENTS ARE IN HYDROMERSE SKIN RECOVERY AND IS THE PRODUCT AUSTRALIAN-MADE? Hydromerse Skin Recovery contains Hyaluronic acid (2%), Glycerine and Menthyl Lactate to cool and soothe the skin. It is proudly Licenced Australian Made and Owned and Cruelty Free. It is also Vegan. APJ Q5: WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR? We are excited to announce that we are also launching six new Cosmeceu�cal skin care products – for in clinic and home use. All these are made in Australia and cruelty free too. Hydromerse Cosmeceu�cals are specially formulated using some of the most nourishing and regenera�ve ingredients to help combat the ageing process, incorpora�ng bio-ac�ve botanical extracts together with pep�des and potent nutrients to minimise the effects of ageing. We also offer all salons and clinics that purchase Hydromerse, tailor-made social media posts to co-promote their business for free. We strongly believe that working together we can achieve more via partnering with clinics. APJ Q6: WHERE CAN YOU FIND OUT MORE ABOUT HYDROMERSE SKIN CARE?
