osmeceutical Experts are among the best in their field. Nominated by their Peers, Vendor or Retailer, they represent the highest standard in skincare consultation. NEOSTRATA∏, an expert in dermocosmetics, congratulates each winner for their outstanding customer service all year long.
CONGRATULATIONS KAY ANTON NEOSTRATA® Cosmeceutical Expert, Shoppers Drug Mart, Mississauga, ON

hen the lockdown happened, like everyone else, our customers were paused. As time moved on, my customers began to re-evaluate their priorities. Not even a pandemic, took away from my customers wanting to look, and most importantly, feel better! Skin care became a vital player in self care during this time. We had more time to look in the mirror and either liking it, or wanting to improve it! With the spa and beauty industry at a standstill, many of our customers took to the internet and watched countless hours of tutorials and masterclasses online. Social media became their teachers and now my customers are fueled with interest in active ingredients, potent complexes and rapid results with clinical acclaim. Enter NEOSTRATA®. When my customers arrived back and said they were really ready to tackle their skin care goals, I knew exactly that NEOSTRATA’S SKIN ACTIVE Collection would give them that little bit extra they were needing to jump start their skin to achieve peak performance.
“POWERING UP A SKIN CARE REGIMEN” SEEMS TO BE OF GREAT INTEREST. ARE THERE OTHER PRODUCTS FOR A REALLY RESULTS DRIVEN CUSTOMER THAT YOU LIKE TO SUGGEST WHEN COMPANION SELLING?
T
IF A CUSTOMER COMES IN WITH MULTIPLE NEEDS AND AN EMPHASIS ON ANTIAGING, WHAT IS THAT BIG “WOW” PRODUCT THAT REALLY STANDS OUT FOR YOU TO SUGGEST?
A
s a beauty expert, I often get asked for that “fountain of youth” product. That “head turner”, “show- stopper” product. At Shoppers Drug Mart we have a multitude of skin care brands that offer their own twist on features and benefits. However, when I am with that customer who is TRULY looking for that “WOW” product, I know just where to take them when results matter. SKIN ACTIVE’S TRITHERAPY LIFTING SERUM! This serum I would consider to be your daily, supercharger of any great skincare regimen. TRI-THERAPY LIFTING SERUM is a potent powerhouse firming formulation for those looking to volumize, exfoliate and renew skin hydration both day and night. This potent serum becomes the first layer for your regimen to build upon and it works on deep expression appearances like crow’s feet, scowl lines and smile lines. “A serum goes on the skin first” I tell my customers, “like lingerie under your moisturizer”. What’s so nice with this serum is that it is not only potent, but also has the likeability my customers enjoy by being oil-free and feather light. We tell our customers “Just give us your skin for 30 days of volume boosting and see how easy it is to achieve your skin care goals.” The rest, as they say, is history!
here certainly are! When my team and I are selling, we remind our customers that our skin is the most vital organ of our body and we need to keep our most vital organ supercharged and performing at high intensity. I also remind them that we don’t just mean their face! This can lead to consideration of how they care for their neck, eye area and body. Skin care is just that…care of ALL of our skin. I usually like to show the INTENSIVE EYE THERAPY, as it is not only for lines and wrinkles around the eye contour, but also helps to improve sagging eye lids. I refer to it as they crown jewel of eye care. I also like to recommend TRIPLE FIRMING NECK CREAM. People commonly forget about caring for their neck and this neck cream firms and tones the sagging skin on the neck décolleté, all while alleviateing discolouration.
TRI-THERAPY LIFTING SERUM THIS SERUM VOLUMIZES THE LOOK OF SLACK SKIN WITH AMINOFIL™ Amino acid derivative, the ingredient solution for volume building, plumping and firming skin’s appearance. It also renews tone with Gluconolactone, a Polyhydroxy Acid that helps to gently exfoliate and promote a more even skin tone.
“EACH DAY we strive to COMMIT to FIND OUR WAY FORWARD. Our continued thanks to you and your teams for your perseverance to providing your customers with a comforting and safe shopping experience. Change is never easy, but it is necessary. Just remember, each time it pinches a bit…we need to “let go, to let grow!” We are proud of you and look forward to growing alongside of you, while discovering our exciting, new tomorrows!” — Patricia Clare, NEOSTRATA National Training Manager

PUBLISHER’S NOTE WELCOME TO OUR SPECIAL FALL LAUNCH ISSUE. We are told this will be the biggest fall launch season in over ten years! As many of the beauty brands delayed their launch plans last year due to COVID-19 lockdowns, they are now back stronger than ever. As stores slowly get back to some sort of normality, we feel confident consumers will embrace all the newness coming their way this fall. We hope you enjoy the issue. In other news, we have had to make some changes to our planned fall events, namely The Beauty’s Best Awards and The Beauty Summit. We surveyed our sponsors and 75% said they are still uncomfortable attending an in-person event this fall. This, coupled with restrictive audience limits imposed on indoor gatherings and the possible treat of a fourth wave due to the Delta variant we felt it would not be safe for our industry to attend these events in person. The Beauty’s Best Awards will be held virtually on Thursday, October 28th, 2021, where we will celebrate all our product winners and beauty expert winners in an exciting evening you can attend from the comfort of your home. Or perhaps you and your colleagues can celebrate together. However, you plan to watch, we know it will be an evening to remember! The Beauty Summit will be postponed until the spring of 2022 and will be held in Montreal. Due to the nature of this networking event, we are unable to hold this virtually. We are excited that this full day event will be in Montreal next year. We will send you more details as they become available. Our finalist for our Beauty’s Best product awards can be found on page 52 of this issue and the finalists for our beauty expert people awards can be found on page 76. Have a look at the people awards finalist ad to see if you made the list this year! By the time you are reading this issue, all our finalists will have already been mystery shopped. We will be informing the winners of our people awards in a few weeks. So, congratulations to all our finalists this year and try to enjoy as many new fall launches as you can. Have a great selling season!

EDITOR’S LET TER THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT FALL that always signals new
beginnings for me. Maybe it’s that old back-to-school feeling, but the idea of fresh possibilities also seeps into the beauty world. This season, there’s plenty to get excited about. Our main feature explores how the beauty industry is tapping into innovative, game-changing technology. Lora Grady writes about how brands are harnessing the power of tech to help upgrade your skincare routine with smart tools (page 43). After more than a year of pared-back makeup looks, fall might be the perfect time to turn up your beauty game. Lavender eyeshadow is a refreshing pop of colour and a welcome change from neutral eye looks (page 34). The pastel shade also signals optimism for the months ahead. When it comes to hair, braids are back, taking inspiration from the runway, and there’s lots of fun to be had by experimenting with different styles (page 37). Fall is also the perfect time to revisit your fragrance wardrobe. This season’s newest scents are bold headturning and the perfect way to show off your personality. We’ve put together a guide to our favourite new launches. We also have an interview with Shay Mitchell, who is the face of Cacharel’s Yes I Am Glorious fragrance. The Canadian actress and entrepreneur chats with us about scent and self-care (page 38). However you choose to approach beauty this fall, we hope you’ll find tons of inspiration within these pages.

CHALK IT UP to a little Cruella-fever c/o Emma Stone in the recently released origin story of the fashionable villain from the infamous book The Hundred and One Dalmatians, but we can't help but love the latest resurgence of the classic colour combo. Fuzzy cow print and groovy patterned knits topped with classic black and white tweed duster coats caught our eyes at Anna Sui, and black and white polka dots popped on ruffled layers at Prabal Gurung and long pleats at Carolina Herrera. Valentino also leaned into the classic shades to create a collection of textures and geometric prints on everything from shortened silhouettes to gold studded handbags with check inlay patterns. And at Balmain, the brand's signature pattern was impossible to miss on an array of accessories, including oversized duffles and tennis racquet sleeves. In beauty, white liner added brightness to bold black lashes and cat-eyes at Givenchy, as did the couture houses' use of white highlights layered beneath jet black tresses. And if you're not ready to plunge into a Cruella-Esque dye job, nail artists like Amy Lee and Rita Remark have been providing more than enough inspo to tap the trend with your fingertips on Insta. — Heather Marrin

lattes, but this fall we’re holding on to fun, playful summer vibes with light-purple eyeshadow. As seen on Dua Lipa at the 2021 Grammys, lavender and lilactoned lids—whether matte or iridescent—are so pretty and whimsical. For proof, see the stunning pastel look Pat McGrath created on models at Prada’s Fall/Winter 2021 show. “The colour lavender brings about a sense of ease. It offers a welcoming sense of calmness after such a turbulent year,” says Toronto-based makeup and hair artist Brittany Sinclair. “It’s the perfect addition to your makeup wardrobe, since it’s flattering on any skin tone and eye colour.” The lavender eye doesn’t require any complicated steps. Having the right product and brush will make a world of a difference for application. Brittany suggests using an eyeshadow base/primer underneath your shadow and apply your lilac/ pastel shade with a flat eyeshadow brush or your finger. Once you have the desired saturation of colour, use a small eyeshadow blending brush to soften the edges.” — Lora Grady

spotted all over the fall/winter runways this year: While models rocked cornrows at Fendi, super long braids were the look at Roberto Cavalli, and box braids were spotted at Nina Ricci. Jasmine Merinsky, a hair and makeup artist in Toronto, offers a few key tips to consider when thinking about a braided style. “Longer styles, like passion twists and goddess braids, usually take longer to install and last upwards of a month,” she says. “If you’re getting straight-back cornrows or a crown braid, it’s typically a relatively quick service and lasts for a couple of days, depending on your nightly care regimen.” She uses Jamaican black castor oil to strengthen and nourish hair. Sleep with a silk bonnet or scarf to reduce friction and help keep braids polished. To give braids a refreshed look, Merinsky recommends an oil-based shine spray. Her advice for someone who wants to try braiding their hair at home: Comb your hair out and then work in sections. “Your braids won’t be perfect at first and that’s ok! It’s all a part of learning.” — Lora Grady Photos: Instagram.

SHINE BRIGHT
Actress and entrepreneur Shay Mitchell takes centre stage for Cacharel’s Yes I Am Glorious By Mishal Cazmi LAST YEAR, actress and entrepreneur Shay Mitchell became the face of Cacharel’s Yes I Am perfume collection. In many ways, she’s the perfect ambassador for the brand, which celebrates freedom, independence and empowerment. The Pretty Little Liars and Dollface star has always marched to the beat of her own drum and carved her own path. Fronting the iconic French fragrance brand is just one of the many hats worn by the Canadian star who lives in Los Angeles with partner Matte Babel and two-yearold daughter Atlas. She’s also the founder of her own luggage company, Béis, and co-founder of a new canned sparkling tequila-based drinks brand called Onda. 38
The latest addition, Yes I Am Glorious, is all about selfaffirmation and embracing that inner glow. Just as the new scent hits stores, Mitchell tells Cosmetics magazine about what makes her feel glorious, her love of travel, and how she practises self-care by finding balance in everything she does. Q : WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT YES I AM GLORIOUS? A : Rooted in self-affirmation and embracing who you are, or who you are at different times given that the modern woman plays so many different roles throughout life, the Yes I Am collection embodies femininity and fulfilling yourself. Yes I Am
Glorious is the fourth fragrance in the collection, and it is truly my favourite. It’s fresh, approachable and light but simultaneously powerful. There is a perfect balance of peachy fruit and springy floral with a creamy, earthy undertone. The signature colour is also a perfect dusty peach, which is always my favourite. Q : HOW WOULD YOU COMPARE THIS FRAGRANCE WITH THE OTHER ONES IN THE COLLECTION? A : Whereas the other fragrances are great for specific personality traits or evoking a specific feeling or power, this is truly a
fragrance for everyone because it is all about embracing your inner self and helping that to shine. Scent-wise, it is perfectly balanced and a little more spirited and sparkly. Q : WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL GLORIOUS? A : A lot of things make me feel glorious in different ways: having my baby reach for me, stepping out of the shower after a long day, fitting in an amazing workout, mastering something I have been working hard at, going on a trip and immersing myself in other cultures, putting myself in a tough situation but rising above.

SPRITZ Created by perfumer Adriana Medina, this warm floral scent brings together notes of white peach nectar, mandarin oil, magnolia and white flowers with milkshake and sandalwood in a head-turning lipstick-inspired bottle.
Q : HOW DO YOU CARE FOR YOUR MIND, BODY AND SOUL? A : I listen to myself and my inner needs. I surround myself with people I respect and reciprocate. I eat healthy, but also eat what I want or what my body is craving. I make sure I sleep, but also make sure I’m active. I pay attention to what is going on in the world, but have consumption limitations. I help when I can. I share. I believe in kindness. I speak out about things that I believe in. I plan my days, but I leave room for spontaneity. I am balanced, as much as I can be, and that feeds the mind, body and soul.
40
Q : YOU’VE ALWAYS LOVED TRAVELLING. HAVE YOU MISSED IT? HAVE YOU FOUND AN ALTERNATIVE DURING LOCKDOWN? A : Travelling is like a limb to me, and also the greatest education. There is no substitute for traveling in my opinion, but family time has been an excellent remedy for restlessness. Ultimately, I believe in science and want to respect what is happening in the world. I will travel again when it is safe, and I cannot wait for that day to come! CACHAREL

“There’s been a huge rise in using beauty tools at home over the past year since people couldn’t go into their dermatologist’s office for treatments.” — DR. KRISTY BAILEY
WHEN IT COMES TO INNOVATIONS
in the beauty industry, nothing is more exciting than brands harnessing the power of technology. From gadgets that promise a better cleanse to masks that use red light to boost collagen, there’s now a smart tool out there for almost every concern. “There’s been a huge rise in using beauty tools at home over the past year since people couldn’t go into their dermatologist’s office for treatments,” says Dr. Kristy Bailey, medical director and founder of FCP Dermatology in Toronto. She points out that there isn’t a ton of scientific evidence to support the use of most at-home treatments, but some are still OK to try. Cleansing brushes, for instance, use vibrations to better cleanse the skin—Dr. Bailey compares them to electric toothbrushes. But two advanced treatments in particular have proven benefits for at-home use.
The first is microcurrent technology: It works by stimulating tiny muscle fibres on the surface of the skin, says Dr. Bailey, which tightens and provides a mini brow lift. (It should be used every day to see the maximum benefits, she adds.) Another proven treatment is red light, which Dr. Bailey says has been proven to increase collagen production and elastin in the skin. It also stimulates hair growth— in fact, one study found that it increased growth by 35 percent. Dr. Dennis Gross, founder of his eponymous skincare line, used the power of light-emitting diode (LED) technology to create the DRx SpectraLite FaceWare Pro. He points out that our skin cells have receptors for red LED that stimulate collagen production, “the key to healthy, younger-looking skin.” Blue LEDs, meanwhile, are meant to kill acne-causing bacteria, Dr. Gross says. Just
FA L L 2 0 2 1 | CO S M E T I C S M AG . CO M
remember, these devices aren’t meant to replace our normal skincare routines. “To achieve your best skin, you should use this device in conjunction with a full regimen,” Dr. Gross says. “Think of the LED treatment as an added bonus that takes your skincare to the next level.” Dr. Bailey agrees, adding that the three most important products are still sunscreen, retinol and vitamin C. And some treatments should still be done by a professional in a clinic. Micro needling, for example, can increase collagen and help take on fine lines, “but it’s an inoffice procedure because it’s more aggressive. I wouldn’t do it at home—if you have acne and you micro needle over it, you’re going to spread the acne all over your face.” When in doubt, check with your dermatologist to see if a treatment is right for you—and whether it’s safe to try at home. 45

MOVERS & SHAKERS L’Oréal Canada has a new CEO in town, and we get the scoop on what she has in store for the ever-growing brand and its diverse portfolio
By Stephanie Hick s THE SUCCESS OF L’ORÉAL CANADA over the last seven years has been in large because of its dedicated leadership under the hands of Frank Kollmar, President and CEO from February 2014 to July of 2021. Frank created great success and launched several brands with the company during his time as CEO. He is stepping into a new role with L’Oréal Canada and handing the CEO reigns over to his successor An Verhulst-Santos. She began her career with Loreal in 1991 and most recently was the president and CEO of L’Oréal Brazil. We put her in the hot seat to find out what she has in store for the brand and how she is going to offer a fresh perspective on the brands growing success. But first, we find out what’s next for Kollmar? Q: What’s next in your new role as L’Oréal Group Global Deputy Managing Director for the Active Cosmetics Division? Kollmar: “I’ve been entrusted with the strategic position of Deputy Managing Director for the Active Cosmetics Division at the worldwide level. I joined the 48
L’Oréal Group in Canada in 1999 as Managing Director of the Active Cosmetics Division, so we could say that I am going back to my L’Oréal roots! My new role will consist of ensuring the Division’s international rollout by supporting our brands to achieve the best results while adapting our business model to the different health ecosystems throughout the world. The Active Cosmetics Division is the world leader in dermocosmetics, with international skincare brands recommended by health care professionals and distributed in healthcare outlets worldwide. I am eager to bring forward all the Canadian best practices in terms of innovations, trends and expertise to other countries. The dermocosmetics category has always been very successful in Canada and has been key to the Division’s worldwide success. For instance, Vichy’s SkinConsult AI tool was first launched on Vichy’s Canadian website before rolling out worldwide. Our dermocosmetics brands have met with remarkable success thanks to consumers’ growing quest for well-being and health. I am certainly looking forward to bringing the Active Cosmetics’ mission to life and help everyone in their quest for healthy and beautiful skin. C O S M E T I C S M A G . C O M | FA L L 2 0 2 1

An Verhulst-Santos, CEO L’Oréal Canada Q: How has the industry changed since you started working with L’Oréal back in 1991? The Beauty industry has certainly changed a great deal in the last 30 years: Beauty Tech, Digital innovations, e-commerce are all evolving at a very fast pace. Beauty is and will always be a human need that transcends time, borders and cultures. The pursuit of beauty is deeply human and has existed from the beginning of time and across all cultures. At L’Oréal, we have always believed that beauty should be inclusive, generous, and sustainable. It is at the heart of everything that we do. For us, beauty is about self-care and self-expression, empowerment and self-confidence, for all genders. We see beauty as a universal aspiration that can be found in many sources and celebrates everyone. And this core value will always remain the same, no matter how many years go by! Q: What are you most excited about as you step into this new role with L’Oréal Canada as their first female President and CEO? I am very excited and eager to collaborate with the Canadian teams to embody L’Oréal’s Sense of Purpose: creating the Beauty that moves the world. We believe in beauty that is there to do good both for the people and our planet. I am looking forward to developing local initiatives that will bring this vision to life. And I can’t wait to visit our points of sale in Canada and meet everyone, I have heard so many good things, I am eager to meet everyone, coast to coast, when it will be possible. Q: Are there any positive changes that the L’Oréal Canada brands have taken from the global pandemic? The Covid-19 pandemic has certainly brought forward new consumer behaviours and positive changes for our brands. One example is our virtual try on digital tool powered by Modiface available in our stores and online boutiques. This digital tool enables consumers to try on shades in a completely safe way. We will continue to maximize the power FA L L 2 0 2 1 | C O S M E T I C S M A G . C O M
of technology to help re-invent and modernize the consumer experience. Q: Now that stores are opening back up, how will L’Oréal continue to support frontline workers and its employees in the aftermath of Covid-19? Our global solidarity program continues. Here in Canada, we are working closely with the Canadian Red Cross to continue the distribution of hydroalcoholic gels to frontline health workers. And with regards to our employees we continue to hold mindfulness, empathy, yoga and self-wellness programs & initiatives to accompany them through this crisis. The health and welfare of our employees is first and foremost at the heart of our culture. Q: Are there any new initiatives in the works that you can share with us? There are indeed several new initiatives, I will share some of them with you: The creation of a Diversity and Inclusion Department, lead by a Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer, supported by a Diversity & Inclusion Advisory Board and close to 150 employees that volunteer to assist and support the objectives and strategies of the company in this space. The objectives are ambitious and meaningful and driven with a sense of purpose for our employees and will be at the service of also our local communities and of course our consumers. The ongoing innovations in Beauty Tech. We are a strategic hub in this space for the L’Oréal Group. Convinced that science and technology can help us make Beauty more efficient, inclusive and effective, we are using the power of technology to create bespoke beauty for everyone. There are many projects underway in Beauty Tech…stay tuned! And let’s talk not forget our L’Oréal For The Future Sustainability program addressing climate change, water, biodiversity and natural resources. In accordance with what scientific experts demand and what our planet needs, L’Oréal Canada continues to break ground in these areas. Our Operations are carbon neutral and our teams are continuously innovating in the reduction of plastic and waste. We are committed to continuing our quest to transform ourselves by setting new and ambitious goals to ensure that our planet thrives. 49

François will be missed by his wife Nina, their two sons, Elliott and William, and all the Prestilux team. A French native, he worked in the Beauty Export business for Parfums Jean Patou-Lacoste, Paris 1988-1993 and Guerlain, Paris 1993-1997. François moved to Canada and became the President of Guerlain Canada in 1998, where he successfully developed and grew the business for sixteen years. In 2014 he joined the leading Canadian beauty distributor Prestilux Inc. as partner & President and in 2016 he became the sole shareholder of Prestilux Inc. The distributor has been successfully developing & launching renowned international beauty brands to the Canadian market since 1970. François continued that tradition building a solid continuous growth, representing great brands like Bioderma, Cacharel, Diesel, Filorga, Jack Black, Nuxe, Pupa and Uriage just to name a few. François won the Canadian Beauty Awards Lifetime Achievement Award in 2013 for his outstanding contribution to the Canadian beauty industry over the past quarter century. He was a board member of Cosmetics Alliance Canada

for the past five years and a member of YPO & WPO organization since 2004. Prestilux remains under the ownership of the family, which will continue its already solid growth initiated by François. François leaves behind a strong, structured, and vision driven company. His wife, Nina Dyson, will be on the Prestilux board of directors, where the members who have supported François for many years will remain. Their first decision, effective immediately is to appoint Marie Farel as President of Prestilux Inc. I have known François for many of his years in the beauty business in Canada and he was always someone whose integrity, honesty, compassion, and trustworthiness could always be counted on. He was a gentleman in both his personal and business dealings. François’s passion for the brands he represented and the people he interacted
FA L L 2 0 2 1 | C O S M E T I C S M A G . C O M
with was always genuine. He recently shared how excited he was to see his business succeeding and growing, a tough thing to do these past couple of years. What I will remember most is his positive outlook on business and life always came first for him. Always smiling, coupled with a great attitude made him a person who was loved by those who knew him. You will be missed my friend. Our heartfelt condolences go out to François’s wife, Nina, their two sons, Elliott and William and the whole family. As well, to the whole Prestilux team, our thoughts are with you all through this difficult time. Sincere Condolences,

L’ A R T E T L A M AT I È R E Quand Thierry Wasser et Delphine Jelk se rencontrent, l’Art se fait Matière ! Voici mon entrevue avec ces deux maîtres parfumeurs de Guerlain.
Q : Quand la matière se fait
l’art… sont les mots d’ordre de la collection d’exclusifs de Guerlain L’Art & La Matière. Comment, selon vous, depuis cinq générations de parfumeurs, la maison Guerlain se démarque-t-elle toujours par ces signatures olfactives qui défient le temps ?
Thierry : Curieux de nature, les parfumeurs de la Maison se sont toujours instruits et inspirés de l’art, la culture étant le ferment de toutes choses. Le choix exceptionnel des matières premières : j’imagine que c’est le secret de la pérennité. Q : Selon vous, quel est le superpouvoirs des parfums de la collection ? Delphine : Aucun sens n’est 56
plus puissant que l’odorat au plan émotionnel. L’Art & La Matière s’inscrit dans cette magie à travers des fragrances au parti pris olfactif très fort, avec des surdoses, des contrastes qui créent de nouvelles harmonies et beaucoup d’audace afin de faire vibrer quelque chose de fort en chacun. Q : Comment sait-on que l’élaboration d’un parfum est achevée ? Delphine : S’arrêter juste à temps, voilà ce qu’il y a de plus difficile pour un créateur ! Et pourtant, survient un moment où l’on n’a plus envie de rien ajouter ou enlever. C’est le signe que ça y est, le parfum est terminé. Q : Qu'évoquent pour vous Santal Pao Rosa et Rose Chérie? Delphine : Après Rose Barbare, nous souhaitions continuer de décliner la rose dans la collection. Santal Pao Rosa, c’est une danse
sensuelle entre la rose et le santal. Le mystère et la force du bois sacré qu’est le santal se mêlent à la grâce infinie de la rose, reine des fleurs. Quant à Rose Chérie, c’est une rose amande tendre et addictive. Elle évoque un baiser au coin d’une rue, un tour de manège à Montmartre. C’est une rose amoureuse ! Q : Les deux nouveaux jus de cette collection sont construits autour d'un ingrédient principal. Cela a-t-il rendu leur création plus simple ? Thierry : C’est en fait le moto de notre collection. Comme Tonka Impériale, Cuir Beluga, Néroli Outrenoir, Rose Chérie et Santal Pao Rosa sont autant de chefs-d’œuvre s’inscrivant dans cette fabuleuse veine. Je ne dirais pas que leur création en a été simplifiée pour autant. L’art du parfumeur est de savoir mettre en scène à l’infini toutes les dimensions d’une matière première.

Q : Quelle est pour vous la partie la plus complexe de votre processus créatif, celle d'imaginer le jus que vous souhaitez créer ou sa réalisation ? Delphine : La partie la plus excitante, c’est la page blanche, l’idée, l’envie, les premiers essais ! La plus complexe, c’est la concrétisation du fantasme. Un parfum Guerlain, c’est un concentré d’émotion qui doit avoir du sillage et de la tenue. Ce n’est qu’une fois ces trois éléments habilement réunis que le processus de création peut s’achever. Il faut du temps pour créer un parfum. Cela demande beaucoup de travail, de patience et de persévérance. Q : Votre inspiration, vous la puisez dans votre vie de tous les jours ou plutôt loin de tout, en déconnexion totale ? Thierry : Beaucoup trop de gens vivent le quotidien en déconnexion ! Le secret de l’inspiration est au contraire l’engagement. Si vous ne vivez pas intensément le moment, il vous sera impossible de vous en souvenir et donc de l’exprimer. Q : Avoir une telle mémoire olfactive, est-ce une bénédiction ou une malédiction dans votre vie de tous les jours ? Thierry : Avoir de la mémoire, c’est surtout pratique quand on fait le choix de l’oublier.

Visualisation automnale LE VIEILLISSEMENT CUTANÉ est un processus
naturel et certains éléments (pollution, soleil, mauvaise hygiène de vie…) peuvent l’accélérer. Mais une routine de soins adaptée aide à préserver la jeunesse et l'éclat de la peau. Heureusement, pour gommer les rides, retrouver une peau lumineuse et tonifier l’ovale du visage, il n’y pas que les injections et le lifting. Les marques de cosmétiques lancent en effet, chaque saison, des crèmes anti-âge high-tech qui ont le pouvoir de ralentir le vieillissement inéluctable de l’épiderme. Quelle est donc la routine hebdomadaire de soins idéale ? Elle inclut dans un premier temps un gommage, dont la vocation est de débarrasser la surface de la peau des cellules mortes qui l’asphyxient. On y ajoute ensuite un bon masque, une double hydratation et enfin des séances de botox mental. On pratique ces derniers une fois par jour, dans un endroit calme, les yeux fermés. On essaie de visualiser mentalement tous les muscles du visage et de les détendre les uns après les autres. Ce simple exercice décrispe les traits sans qu’on ait besoin de recourir à des produits chimiques. N’est-ce pas merveilleux d’avoir dans sa trousse beauté un secret de plus pour garder son capital beauté au top ? Après les excès jouissifs de l’été, les meilleurs soins seront les bienvenus. Et les plus en vue pour la nouvelle saison, vous les trouverez ici. Suivez le guide ! 57

S i l l ag e 3 .0 UNE NOUVELLE ÈRE olfactive
émerge et un sillage futuriste promet de laisser une empreinte 3.0... Voici ce que j’ai découvert en jasant avec les parfumeurs Loc Dong et Juliette Karagueuzoglou créateurs de Phantom, la nouvelle fragrance de la maison Paco Rabanne.
Q: QUAND LA CRÉATION D’UN PARFUM EST ASSISTÉE PAR L’INTELLIGENCE ARTIFICIELLE ET COMBINÉE AVEC LES NEUROSCIENCES, QUE RESTE-T-IL À AJOUTER PAR LE PARFUMEUR POUR QU’UNE FRAGRANCE SE RÉVÈLE EXCEPTIONNELLE ?
Q: QU’ÉVOQUE PHANTOM ?
Loc : La créativité reste mienne, la
Loc: "Phantom est un parfum à l’image de la maison Paco Rabanne : avantgardiste, audacieux, futuriste. Pour travailler au sein de cette ligue majeure, il faut être capable d’apporter à tout ce que l’on fait une dimension de nouveauté." Juliette : "J’ajouterai qu’une autre dimension commune à Phantom et à l’univers Paco Rabanne est une certaine dose d’humour. L’homme Phantom, par exemple, est sexy, mais c’est avant 58 tout parce qu’il se sent bien dans sa peau et non parce qu’il a le gabarit d’un superhéros. Tout cela en gardant bien sûr l’ADN disruptif de la maison." 64
construction d’une structure cohérente également. L’intelligence artificielle et les neurosciences proposent à mon nez des choses auxquelles je n’aurais pas pensé. Elles agissent un peu comme un GPS, mais c’est toujours moi au volant qui décide de la route à emprunter ! Juliette : Il reste à ajouter l’émotion car c’est elle qui va susciter l’attachement et l’adhésion au parfum. Et elle est de notre ressort. Q: QUELLE ÉTÉ VOTRE DYNAMIQUE DE CRÉATION À HUIT MAINS ? Juliette : Loc a créé l’accord initial,
tout en fraîcheur et en tension, lors d’un séjour à Paris. Puis, Loc étant reparti à New York, nous avons travaillé à distance sur cet accord de base. J’aime bien dire que ce parfum ne dormait jamais : étant donné le décalage horaire, il y avait toujours quelqu’un pour veiller sur lui.
Loc : Juliette s’est particulièrement
penchée sur l’équilibre et le savoirfaire de la formule, explorant les effets, comparant la tension et l’harmonie, etc. Quant à Anne Flipo et Dominique Ropion, ils veillaient surtout à garder la force de la signature car, lorsqu’on avance dans le développement, l’accord se complexifie et devient plus facetté. Anne et Dominique ont donc fait en sorte que l’idée initiale reste bien en évidence. Q: QUEL EST LE POUVOIR OLFACTIF DE CE NOUVEL OPUS ? Loc : Phantom est un parfum qui
rend heureux et confiant. De nombreux jus revendiquent ces vertus mais, dans le cas de Phantom, cela est prouvé par des neuroscientifiques ! Pour être plus précis, les études de l’IFF (International Flavors & Fragrances Inc.) ont démontré que les odeurs ont un effet stimulant sur certaines zones du cerveau associées à différentes humeurs, émotionnelles ou cognitives : la joie, la confiance en soi, la vigilance… Juliette : Nous savions par exemple que la lavande possède des vertus stimulant un état de joie. Nous avons donc élaboré une lavande « 3.0 » mêlant notamment un cœur de lavandin à un lavandin bio tiré d’un

Ses photos, d’un sexy fou, sont très léchées et traduisent son style de vie branché. La suivre, c’est vivre avec elle de moments exceptionnels. Q: Quel parfum te colle à la peau, Jodie ? R : Je change de fragrance à chaque saison.
Ce que j’aime par-dessus tout, c’est quand une odeur fait émerger un souvenir enfoui dans ma mémoire. Et, en général, j’adore les jus floraux sublimés d’une touche épicée. Q: Quelle est ta routine de parfumage ? R : Au sortir de ma douche le matin, après
avoir appliqué ma crème pour le corps, je savoure mon moment préféré : celui de me parfumer. Je répète cette routine en après-midi et cela me fait sentir belle et bien dans ma peau. J’adore aussi parfumer mes draps avant de me coucher, j’en superpose même parfois deux différents… J’essaie de transmettre à ma fille ce bonheur qui est de se parfumer.

LE NUMÉRO 76 DES CHIEFS DE KANSAS CITY venait de recevoir le prestigieux
Laurent Duvernay-Tardif
LE GRAND
prix sportif Mohammad Ali pour son implication humanitaire exceptionnelle à l’occasion de la pandémie de COVID-19. Le médecin et joueur de football vedette enfilait les entrevues mais, heureusement pour nous, il a creusé une brèche dans son agenda pour un petit entretien avec moi.
Ce tête-à-tête a été révélateur de l’être humain incroyable qu’est Laurent Duvernay-Tardif. De sa sensibilité, de son humanité, de son intelligence. D’entrée de jeu, il m’a décrit son sentiment à propos du prestigieux prix qu’il venait de recevoir : « En tant qu’athlètes professionnels, nous avons le devoir d’utiliser notre tribune afin de faire quelque chose de plus grand. De porter un message plus fort pour faire avancer des causes qui nous tiennent à cœur. La promotion de la santé est pour moi une vocation ; donc, être reconnu pour mes réalisations médicales en temps de pandémie est un grand honneur. C’est à mes yeux l’accomplissement ultime et ça me touche beaucoup ! » On se rappelle que l’athlète-médecin a mis sur pause son rôle de garde des Chiefs de Kansas City pour soigner les patients d’un CHSLD québécois. Une expérience qui l’a fait grandir. « En tant qu’humain et futur médecin, j’ai constaté que les médecins doivent comprendre la différence entre traiter à tout prix les gens ou soigner les gens avec une approche plus humaine, avec confort et dignité. »

En plus de s’activer dans le sport et la médecine, la philanthropie et la boulangerie familiale, Laurent est récemment devenu l’égérie de la marque de beauté ClarinsMen. Un nouveau défi qu’il embrasse pleinement. « Mon partenariat avec la maison Clarins fait sens puisque nous partageons les mêmes valeurs d’engagement social et de promotion de la santé. Leur équipe de recherche utilise des ingrédients issus de la nature. De plus, leur gamme de soins solaires est cruciale pour protéger l’un des plus grands organes du corps humain qu’est notre peau. »
Laurent est un grand passionné de la vie. Sa feuille de route est impressionnante, mais son intérêt et son respect à l’égard d’autrui le sont tout autant. Quand je lui ai demandé comment il voyait la beauté du futur, il m’a lancé avec conviction : « Dans les relations humaines ! » Logique car, avec lui, la vie, ça se joue en équipe !
Le nouveau duo de soins revigorant signé ClarinsMen a été mis au point spécialement pour les hommes au mode de vie intense. Les extraits de ginseng rouge et d’herbe à bison qu’il contient soutient la production énergétique des cellules cutanées lorsque l’activité des mitochondries est ralentie. Le Gel Énergisant procure un effet frais instantané de – 2 °C sur le visage et l’embout à trois billes du Gel Énergisant Yeux permet de masser le contour de l’œil et d’effectuer un drainage qui donne un effet défatigant immédiat. Notre sportif profesionnel adore la texture de ces soins et leur effet fraîcheur qui réveille son épiderme ! Laurent n’a jamais eu peur de sortir des sentiers battus pour concrétiser ses passions. Il aime repousser les limites et n’a pas peur d’être unique. « Être un sportif, faire de la médecine, de la philanthropie, etc., tout ça ensemble me comble ! Combiner ces actions me rend heureux, c’est comme ça que je trouve mon équilibre. »

IF YOU’VE EVER TAKEN the time
to apply a clay mask during an at-home spa day, you know how soothing the ingredient can feel on skin. That’s why one Canadian company has seized an opportunity to elevate skincare routines everywhere with glacial marine clay: a sustainable, mineral-rich clay that’s hand harvested off the coast of B.C. The clay is found in rare mineral deposits in the Pacific Ocean and underneath active glaciers and icefields in the Coast Mountains of B.C. It’s been used for centuries by First Nations to help reduce inflammation from cuts, infections and sunburns, says Robert Fuller, owner and CEO of Glacial Bay Marine Clay Inc. “Our rare glacial marine clay deposits have been a hidden secret and only available to a select few who have mineral claims in the area,” he adds. “Professionals from around the world are mystified at the amazing healing and skin conditioning properties that the clay possesses.” Once harvested, the clay goes through an environmentally friendly process that uses the sun to dry it into a powder, which is then screened into an even finer powder. The final result is like icing sugar.

Brands like Goop, Man Mud and UK-based Zaza & Cruz use Glacial Bay Marine Clay in some of their products, from soaps and cleansers to masks and even dry shampoo. “Clay feels good, it’s safe if used occasionally and it may help to reduce oil in the skin,” says Dr. Shannon Humphrey, a Vancouverbased dermatologist and clinical assistant professor in the department of dermatology and skin science at the University of British Columbia. “Clays are highly absorbent, so they can reduce oil and sebum on skin,” she says. While more scientific studies are needed to confirm the advantages of using clay on our complexions, Dr. Humphrey says Glacial Bay Marine Clay may be an ideal ingredient for someone looking for a natural and holistic remedy for oily and acne-prone skin. Look for a high-quality formulation and start with a patch test (on some skin types, clay can be overdrying and cause irritation, says Dr. Humphrey). At the end of the day, says Dr. Humphrey, “I don’t think we should underestimate the wellness aspect of self care, like a clay mask found in nature.”

BEAUT Y WITH GR ACE The Look: Smoke Show Why We Love It: Reimagining a smokey eye and swapping liner for black shadow to create feline-style lines blended with shimmery gold–this bold look deserves a night out.
Grace Lee’s creativity and recognizable aesthetic have made her a household name and crowned her the Official Makeup Artist for Maybelline NY in Canada. And with everyday beauty hacks on Insta and show-stopping looks for editorial features, on camera and at fashion weeks, she continues to make her mark. Rocking a celeb roster that includes Eva Longoria, Justin Timberlake and Anna Paquin, she’s also an A-List fave.

The Look: Berry Subtle Why We Love It: The rich berry lip is perfectly complemented by the subtle all-over rosy eye and cheek colour that Lee says she only needed three colours to create.
The Look: Glassy & Classy Why We Love It: The highlighting around the brow and on the lid create this glass-like effect that trickles down to the cheek for a dreamy finish. Paired with a bold, classic red lip, this look is “feeling fresh” defined.

The Look: Mixed Metals Why We Love It: Inspired by jeweller Jenny Birds’s love for mixing metals, Lee mixed equal parts silver, gold and rose gold glitter for these eyes that sparkle with both a dewy and glittery finish. The Look: Classic Red Why We Love It: We love how she keeps the face seemingly simple and neutral so the lip can be front and centre–as every red lip should be. Paired with a classic red nail, this look is hot. Red hot! 81
