TOO MUCH OF GOOD THING?

A

T

HE NEW YORK metropolitan area was battered by Hurricane Irene

in August. The storm dumped 13 inches of rain in our region, making for severe flooding in northern New Jersey. Just over the border, in New York State, my relatives were hit hard by the deluge. I spent a few days helping out and learned a lesson or two about buying in bulk. For years, I’ve pleaded with my wife to make more trips to the big discount stores like Costco. And for years she’s shot back that we don’t have room to store all that stuff and besides, a lot of it would end up going to waste. Well after I rescued what seemed like 18 bottles of Lysol toilet bowl cleaner from a flooded basement, I realized my wife may just have a point. Americans insatiable appetite for more, more, more, may be skewing actual demand for some of the products in our industry. The folks at Method would certainly seem to agree.The household cleaning company is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year and cofounder Adam Lowry told HAPPI.com that one of his proudest accomplishments is getting consumers to use less, not more, laundry detergent by creating a cap to keep product over-dosing to a minimum. Meanwhile, SC Johnson is testing an All-In-One Cleaning System that holds up to three concentrated cleaner cartridges at once in a single hand-held sprayer. Available concentrated cleaner cartridges include Windex Glass, Fantastik Kitchen, Scrubbing Bubbles Bathroom, Pledge Furniture and Shout Carpet. What if more companies thought more about using less? It could have a radical impact on consumer trends and industry output. If you’re looking for a manufacturing partner for your laundry detergent, household cleaner or personal care product, be sure to check out our Contract Manufacturing/Private Label Directory on p. 82 in this issue of HAPPI. We’re sure that you will find a filler to meet your needs. Also this month, we report on the resilient wipes market (p. 61). Although category growth has slowed in recent years, there is still plenty of room for gains. This issue of HAPPI also includes articles on the ethnic skin care segment (p. 55) and testing services (p. 69). With the FDA’s new rulings for sunscreens, changes for SPF claims will place demands on marketers to reformulate and laboratories to increase testing capabilities. We hope you enjoy this edition of HAPPI. As always we welcome your comments and suggestions.

Maintaining Brand Loyalty In a Rocky Economy • In the CPG world, brand loyalty is the golden ring. However, attaining and holding onto the loyalty of shoppers is very difficult—it requires skill to understand consumer needs and determination in precise communication that a product will deliver on those needs. And how much more difficult does that task become during a prolonged period of economic problems? In SymphonyIRI Group’s current Times & Trends Report, “Brand Loyalty: How Understanding Brand Equity Impacts Brand Loyalty and Delivers to the Top and Bottom Line,” the firm uncovers insights into what drives consumers to

seek out their preferred brands and highlights recomloyalty remains mended strategies for high, according winning the hearts SymphonyIRI. to and minds of today’s savvy, conscious shoppers. An environment marked by consumers strapped for cash and current events make addressing brand loyalty even more complex than normal. Consumers numb from a vacillating economy have embraced frugal ways and continue to make purchases deliberately and cautiously. Despite a period of prolonged economic difficulty, brand loyalty is strong and growing across a number of CPG categories. “While most retailers and manufacturers will instinctively pull the lever to compete on price, it’s important to understand that consistently leading with price has significant negative impacts on brand equity,”said John McIndoe, senior vice president, marketing, SymphonyIRI.“Rather, CPG leaders must harness the power of value. The battle for the shopper’s loyalty should not be dictated by low price, and winning CPG marketers are clearly getting this message.” In fact, brand loyalty has actually increased across 45 of the top 100 CPG categories during the past three years. For instance, brand loyalty is quite high, 87.6%, in the sports drink category. During the past three years, loyalty increased 6.5 points despite economic conditions and conservative purchase patterns. Brand loyalty in the household cleaners category is pegged at 50.9%, according to SymphonyIRI. Meanwhile, brand loyalty for cleaning tools/mops/brooms is much higher at 72.4%. In personal care, shampoo brand loyalty is 65.9%. Those three sectors—household cleaners, cleaning tools and shampoo—were among the categories with the largest increases in brand loyalty, up 3.5, 2.8 and 2.8 points, respectively, over 2008, the company said. “Interestingly, nearly all of the categories in which brand loyalty gains were highest already have fairly high levels of brand loyalty,” said Susan Viamari, editor of Times & Trends, SymphonyIRI. “In fact, loyalty is more than 50% in nine out of 10 categories shown—a striking reminder that true loyalty can survive even prolonged economic upheaval.” More info: www.symphonyiri.com •

The new Mip products set a new benchmark for CIP in terms of optimized use concentrations and performance for these specific applications.The new formulations also demonstrate how we at Ecolab use our expertise in research, development and engineering to enable our customers to achieve their cleaning and sustainability targets,” said Andreas Weilinghoff, senior vice president and general manager, food and beverage, EMEA. The product range reduces hard complexing agents, such as EDTA, in most formulations while maintaining optimal water hardness compatibility. The formulation changes are anticipated to reduce salt load in effluent by over 30% and yield an estimated 15% carbon footprint improvement in comparison to the existing products.

SAFE COSMETICS ALLIANCE MAKES ITS DEBUT • A diverse coalition representing the entire spectrum of the nation’s cosmetic and personal care industry—from nail salon workers to small business owners to direct sellers to global corporations—have come together to champion modernizing the industry’s US product safety laws, according to officials from the newly-formed Safe Cosmetics Alliance. “Those of us in the personal care products and beauty services industry have an impeccable safety record,”said Pam Busiek, president and CEO for the Independent Cosmetic Manufacturers & Distributors (ICMAD), a member of the new group.“Given all the advances in science and technology, it is essential that our laws keep pace.” The coalition supports science-based federal legislation designed to strengthen US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) oversight of the industry, increase transparency and enhance existing consumer safeguards. The industry has been in discussions with members of Congress to encourage introduction of such a bill. The Alliance, which unveiled a new website, also includes the Professional Beauty Association (PBA), Direct Selling Association (DSA) and the Personal Care Products Council (PCPC). “We touch the life of nearly every single American, most of whom use our products or services on a daily basis,” said Lezlee Westine, president and CEO for the Personal Care Products Council. “Both large and small companies have earned the consumers’ trust over the years. In this context, the formation of the Safe Cosmetics Alliance is yet further recognition of our responsibility to maintain that trust.” More info: www.SafeCosmeticsAlliance.org

The document makes unsubstantiated claims about emissions from dryer vents after using certain laundry products, according to the industry groups. The manufacturer groups expressed disappointment that the paper’s authors exploited their findings of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emanating from dryer vents based on a dataset of such limited size and plagued by the confounding effects of their study design.

HALLSTAR PROVIDES A BOOST TO SUNSCREEN PROTECTION

S

OLASTAY

S1 (INCI Name: Ethylhexyl methoxycrylene) is manufactured by HallStar, Chicago, IL, and is a clear, yellow-orange, viscous liquid that functions as an emollient, sunscreen active stabilizer and sunscreen solvent. It is insoluble in water, but can be dissolved in ethanol and cosmetic esters. It is a solvent for avobenzone (>25%), bemotrizinol (30%), diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate (20%), ethylhexyl triazone (25%) and oxybenzone (30%). HallStar claims that this product is the most powerful and robust photostabilizer on the market today. It photostabilizes the combination of octinoxate and avobenzone and works up to 1000 times faster than octocrylene to protect against a loss of absorbance. Retinol and retinyl palmitate are retinoids that are widely used in topically applied skin care products. Both are photounstable and exhibit rapid photodegradation that results in a loss of efficiency. Work has been done1 to show that when combined with 5% ethylhexyl methoxycrylene, retinol and retinyl palmitate are photostabilized and exhibit no loss of concentration when exposed to UV light.

UNCERTAINTY AND INNOVATION UNDERSCORE THE SPA MARKET

I

T WAS ONLY a matter of time before European spa marketers felt the grinding effects of the recent recession. While last year’s sales results were largely positive, this year has proved to be much more of a mixed bag. France did see an increase in market value while Italy and Spain declined by 6% and 7%, respectively—which was not good news. At press time, there were no figures available for Germany and the UK, unfortunately. Insider opinion on the spa sector has been varied, however, because although some of the figures do not look good, there has been positive innovation on the product and treatment side—which is good news for consumers and manufacturers alike.

French Polish Although there were no exact sales figures for the French spa market in 2010, it is the view of many insiders that there has been a definite return to form in the past year. Many companies have reported a good year, and the increase in hotel business, in particular, has been sharp. Recent figures from the Global Spa Summit estimate the French spa market to be worth $2.1 billion, giving France a 5%

share of the global spa market and making it the fourth largest behind the US (26%), Japan (12%) and Germany (8%). When it comes to new product development, there has been innovation in the skin whitening sector, and luxury spa brand L.Raphael is currently developing a new whitening product due to launch in 2012. The organic skin care sector has seen new entries too, prominently from Cinq Mondes, which started introducing Ecocert-certified organic skin care at the end of last year. The brand’s strategy is to combine naturalness and performance, but never at the expense of one or the other. As a result, only certain Cinq Mondes products are organic, such as Crème Eclat aux Cinq Fleurs and Eau Micellaire aux Cinq Fleurs, a hydrating and illuminating creme and a cleansing and toning water. The formulas are based on phytoaromatic research, incorporating five tropical flowers (gardenia, hibiscus, frangipani, ylang ylang and lotus) to restore softness and radiance to the skin alongside the benefits of a refreshing and energizing fragrance.

Babor’s Brazilian Treat Germany has many interesting spa brands and Babor is definitely a frontrunner here. The brand, which is available in many spas across the country, recently rolled out its new Babor BelezaVitality treatment, which takes inspiration from the Amazon rainforest in Brazil.This is a head-to-toe treatment concept, which incorporates a warm soothing application ending in a pleasantly refreshing tropical rain shower. The constant transition from warm to cool during the treatment increases the circulation and boosts the recipient’s sense of well-being, according to the company. To accompany the new treatment, Babor has launched a range of associated products including the Beleza do Brasil Body Butter, which is applied warm during the massage portion of the above happi.com

its products out to the home spa market, as many customers have recently expressed an interest in recreating the experience on their own time (and presumably as a way to save some euros in the process).

Spain Feels the Pinch Spain’s cosmetics and toiletries market has felt the pinch of economic recession more than most in Europe and it was inevitable that this would also affect the country’s spa market. According to research firm DBK, sales slumped 7% during the past year to $345 million in traditional spa centers. However, an additional $265 million can be attributed to hotel spa business in the country and this is an area that is set to grow. Good spas require good equipment and a Spanish equipment success story, both at home and abroad, is Zonair3D. In conjunction with the Universitat Politècnica in Catalunya, Zonair3D has created its Bubble Pure Air, a transportable bubble whose architecture and propulsion system means that anyone entering it is breathing air without any contaminants or viral, bacterial and allergenic agents. “It is specially designed for athletes and

people with allergies, asthma or other respiratory conditions, but also for anyone who wants the benefits of inhaling 99.9% pure air,”according to the company. With clients of the calibre of tennis player Rafa Nadal, the Real Madrid medical team and the Gran Hotel La Florida in Barcelona, the Bubble Pure Air is already available in 14 markets worldwide and the firm is targeting 30 international distributors by the end of the year.

New UK Arrivals Two new entrants onto the UK spa market are Africology and Mandara Spa. Africology takes the inspiration for its products and treatments from a variety of global locations, including its native South Africa. The UK Africology Spa, based beneath London’s Bloww Salon near Regent’s Street and opening this month, is the first of what the company hopes will be many in Europe. Treatments include the African Goddess Facial and the African Potato Body Experience. Luxury spa brand Mandara Spa, part of the Steiner Leisure Group, has created a new range of bath and body products that retail exclusively through 400 Sains-

bury’s supermarkets and at the brand’s first UK spa at the Park Plaza hotel in London. The five collections are inspired by spa locations in Bali, the Maldives, the Bahamas and Hawaii. Meanwhile super salon Urban Retreat has taken the home spa concept a step further with Urban Retreat at Home. But this isn’t just a case of products for home use—it’s a franchise package harmonized under Urban Retreat. Targeting people who are strapped for time or unable to get to a spa for whatever reason, qualified therapists travel to people’s homes to provide a full treatment experience. Urban Retreat chairman George Hammer acknowledges that this is not a new concept, saying,“It’s been going since before I was born but it’s never been harnessed properly by anybody.” Therapists will be retrained and will only be allowed to deliver treatments for which they’re qualified to the right standard. “It’s about creating a benchmark for Urban Retreat,” said Hammer. And while it’s not about selling product, selling is part of the franchise agreement, though clients will be directed to the Urban Retreat Beautique online. Thus, while figures for the spa market, when they are available, show a somewhat uncertain landscape, it is clear that the European spa market has not lacked innovation or creative thinking. It has to be hoped that this will give the market a jumpstart for the coming year—it certainly needs it. •

skin care market is driven by innovative specialty actives and delivery systems. Choosing the right anti-aging ingredients is crucial for success. While many consumers are willing to pay a premium to stave off the signs of aging, a proven track record of scientific efficacy remains the key selling point in this segment. Astute ingredient suppliers understand that active skin ingredients with clinically demonstrated efficacy are the stars of the personal care ingredient market. According to Euromonitor, overall volume sales of active skin ingredients posted a compound annual growth rate of 5% during 2004-2009 and are projected to grow 3% annually from 2009-2014. This is almost double the growth rate forecast for all personal care ingredients. Therefore, it is no surprise to see ingredient suppliers dedicating hefty R&D budgets to the exploration of new actives.

cosmetics market. Some of the most promising anti-wrinkle, anti-aging products contain peptides. This column will briefly review the anti-aging power of peptides. Repairing Peptides: Dipeptide-2 and tetrapeptide-7 peptides both have demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties and hence may offer beneficial applications for post-procedure treatments and may aid in repairing skin barrier dysfunction. While these peptides soothe inflammation, copper peptides such as GHK peptides made by ProCyte, for use in the company’s Neova line, work by repairing skin injury caused by either wound or photodamage. Relaxing Peptides: These peptides have an effect on the neurotransmitters that control the communication between the nerves and the muscles that cause expression-related wrinkles. Peptides like acetyl hexapeptide-3, also known by the trade name Argireline, relax the muscles and produce a Botox-like effect. Hexapeptides are known as wrinkle-relaxing peptides. Firming Peptides: Tetra and penta peptides are face-firming peptides. They stimulate the skin’s natural production of collagen to help restore the structure of the skin and smooth wrinkles. Their benefits are comparable to the benefits provided by retinoids minus their chemical instability and irritation.

Some Key Peptides Peptides are bio-safe treatment ingredients with anti-wrinkle properties.The first peptide, Matrixyl (also known as pal-KTTKS), was developed and launched by Sederma, a division of Croda. In clinical studies it was shown to increase the synthesis of collagen I, collagen III and fibronectin. Copper peptide and the lipo-peptide (Matrixyl) are both used to stimulate collagen production and promote elasticity. Another category of peptides that modulate function at the neuromuscular junction is Myhappi.com

oxinol (Cognis) and Argireline (Centerchem). More recently, Merck launched the first of a new peptide generation, RonaCare Cyclopeptide-5. It reinforces the extracellular matrix resulting in firm, youthful skin.

Efficacy Advancing age leads to decreased synthesis of matrix molecules such as collagen, elastin, fibronectin and glucosaminoglycans. Thinning skin leads to drying out and the disruption and weakening of the epidermal junction, which leads to wrinkle formation. Wrinkles truly are“skin deep;”i.e., they do not exist beyond the dermis and epidermal dermal junction. As we grow older, collagen production slows, resulting in a loss of skin elasticity and a decrease in the skin’s ability to hold moisture as the collagenelastin network weakens over time. The primary function of most peptides is a signaling one. They bring a biochemical “message” and incite an action. Peptides trick older skin into producing collagen along with hyaluronic acid, a key factor in retaining moisture in the skin, which results in a plumping effect and a smoother, softer and younger looking complexion. Peptides’anti-aging benefits derive from its many forms such as tri, tetra, penta and hexa. Peptides act as messengers in the skin, providing signals to cells to regenerate. Some peptides stimulate new collagen formation while others prevent the breakdown of existing collagen. Overall, peptides help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles along with skin’s texture and tone. Different peptides have different functions. Since peptides are derived from protein building blocks, they are easily utilized and subsequently absorbed by the skin on many levels making them very effective skin care actives. Peptides in skin care October 2011

mimic peptides produced by cells. This process slows down or reverses biological elements of aging and other skin conditions. The most important characteristic of a peptide, besides its size, is the precise order in which the various amino acids are linked together. Small peptide molecules easily penetrate the top layer of the skin to repair fine lines and wrinkles caused by sun damage. Topical collagen and elastin creams, on the other hand, have difficulty targeting collagen-producing cells to trigger regeneration in the bottom-up mode. Many peptides, however, are incapable of penetrating through the stratum corneum, and thus are not able to exert their function. Gly-His-Lys peptide, being highly water soluble and also charged with ions, will stay at the skin surface and remain inactive. Chemical derivation such as palmitoylation (attachment of fatty

acid) however, allows the peptide to reach the epidermis and even dermis.1

True proof of the peptide efficacy comes from appropriate clinical studies. Antiaging finished products do not base their various claims on a specific ingredient. It is the entire composition as commercialized that produces the desired effect on skin or hair. In this way, peptides are not directly linked to the final claims. Advertised claims and their exact wording are critically important, so that peptide products are not considered drugs, which would need regulatory approval—a filing process that involves costly and time-consuming new drug applications.

types tolerate them and they have better pH stability, broader application and biological activity. This is because peptides speak the language of the cells. There is some controversy over which peptides actually penetrate the skin. Pentapeptides such as Argireline and Matrixyl are by far the most effective in making skin look plump and youthful. New peptides with new activity are researched continuously, and are reported in the literature. The market is full of a variety of cosmetic products touting peptide’s antiaging benefits. There does seem to be science that shows that peptides have the potential to improve the appearance of aging skin. Most peptide products are reported to be safe with no side effects. •

PREPARE YOUR HIRING TEAM TO DELIVER THE BEST CANDIDATE

T

O ENSURE THAT you get the right hire, it takes more than simply putting your hiring team in place. In fact, that is only a starting point. Once the hiring team is selected, it is necessary to align the hiring team members in terms of responsibilities, goals and ensure they have an understanding of the job requirements and duties. If you don’t have this much-needed alignment, there really is no telling what you may end up with for employees. Getting your hiring team aligned for the best results requires that a detailed information gathering process is followed. A Search Prep Questionnaire (SPQ) enables you to build team unity with everyone being on the same page. The answers to the questions will also enable you to produce a highly refined single document that contains all the essential information about your current open job position and how to properly promote it. Information gathering is a three-step process that ensures team alignment and a quality opportunity-marketing document. They

polished, well thought out and with a hiring process that is clearly presented. Candidates can easily grab tips about how to prepare for an interview and find out how to answer select questions. This enables them to be more competitive than ever—which requires that an interview and hiring team also must have it together to determine the best candidates. A third reason is because it helps to establish your company as the leading employer of choice in your local community— not just one of your nationally or globally based competitors. Most importantly, the SPQ enables you to gather the information you need to put together the OMP. Once you have the information, then it is essential to produce a first-class marketing piece that draws in candidates, causing them to want to know much more. Having a professional OMP, well-informed interviewers and hiring team members, combined with a clear un-

derstanding of the position, will easily motivate candidates to believe you, listen to you, and then to want to work with you.

Collecting the Information When gathering position information, it is important to remember that it be a collaborative procedure. You want the opinions and thoughts of others to consider all angles answer the questions uniformly. The SPQ provides a base of questions to get started. You will need to add a few questions of your own, possibly 5-10, that are position-specific. This will enable you to custom design the information to your company’s goals or criteria. Do not presume that any hiring team members will answer the questions in a particular way. This may limit the flow of vital information that will enable a better document to be produced. Some of the information should not be shared openly with the team, such as compensation, ben-

efits and relocation. Repeat this process for every open position. To simplify it, save the questions and answers from your first open position and use them to move quickly when the next position opens. Of course, you must eliminate questions and answers that do not pertain to the position. Use the SPQ each time you start a new search for a different position and revisit the SPQ when the same position re-opens. Re-consider questions and answers for accuracy and relevance. Changes could have been made in the duties, requirements and skills that mandate a review and correction to produce an up-to-date document. It may surprise you just how many questions can be raised when your team meets to discuss an open position. When team members are allowed to add their thoughts to the discussion, it may open areas of discussion that need further analysis and ex-

amination. As surprises, disagreements and other elements enter into the discussion, each one must be fully answered. This lets you hammer out a precise document and interview and selection process and it will bring your hiring team into a highly refined position of focus—allowing them to work as a single unit when the time comes.

The SMART Questionnaire Here is a sample of the Search Prep Questionnaire so that you can see the type of questions involved. Altogether, there are more than 60 questions.

it relates to this position? Where Are We? • Why is the position available? Is it new? Did someone leave or get promoted? • How long has the position been vacant?

To see a full list of SPQ questions visit www.ropella.com/therighthire After the hiring team has met and discussed all of the questions and added their own thoughts, the entire document needs to be assembled with all comments and views in it. The compiled document then needs to be emailed to each member of the team for a review and further notes or comments to be added. Once that is done, it needs to be edited and put into its final form for all members. •

CLEAR SAILING Issues such as hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation continue to impact ethnic consumers. Industry experts say much work needs to be done to address the needs of Blacks, Asians and Hispanics. Tom Branna • Editorial Director

T

HE SKIN CARE DEMANDS of ethnic consumers are as nearly varied as the skin tones of the consumers themselves. At the same time, the unique needs of this diverse group make it difficult to cross-market skin care solutions for all of them. Packaged Facts, Rockville, MD, estimates that US retail sales of ethnic hair, makeup and skin care products approached $2.7 billion in 2009, and posted annual growth of about 8% from 2005 to 2009. More specifically, hair care sales totaled $1.5 billion; makeup was next at $961 million and skin care was the smallest of the three categories at $210 million. “Skin care remains the smallest category because it’s the one that remains semi-mysterious—even in 2011,”explained Timothy Dowd, a senior analyst with Packaged Facts, who noted that women know what they want in makeup and they know what products to use to achieve certain effects in hair care. “But skin care goals aren’t that distinct,” he observed.“Skin care is the category that needs the most consumer education.” At the same time, African-Americans, Hispanics and Asians often look elsewhere for their skin care. According to Packaged Facts’ estimates, general market skin care products purchased by these three groups reached $2.3 billion in 2009. Why the discrepancy? “Sometimes, a general market product

works just fine and does solve skin care problems,”suggested Dowd. Taking a closer look at mass market sales of ethnic skin care products (see chart, next page), SymphonyIRI estimates the category is growing nearly 5% and exceeds $40 million, but that total is for food, drug and mass merchandisers excluding Walmart. In terms of cosmetics, AC Nielsen estimates sales rose 7.6% to nearly $18 million for the 52 weeks ended Aug. 6, 2011. However, in 2010, total ethnic cosmetics sales fell 4.1% to $16.8 million.

Specific Problems But no matter where ethnic consumers purchase their products, more often these days they seek solutions for skin aging and pigmentation disorders, according to industry experts. “They have uneven skin tone and want treatments to treat hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation,” explained Andrew F. Alexis, MD, director, Skin of Color Center, St. Luke’s-Roosevelt Hospital, New York. “It’s a major part of the ethnic market.” Clarisa Wilson, president of Fashion Fair, agrees. “Maintaining skin tone and texture integrity (is the biggest issue in ethnic skin care). At Fashion Fair, our only concern is to address the specific needs of this consumer,” she told HAPPI.“We exist to provide her with the highest quality products, happi.com

services and education.” In instances of hyperpigmentation, Alexis said that hydroquinone remains the gold standard when it comes to skin “bleaching” agents, but at the same time, he is using kojic acid, soy extract and arbutin in his practice. More often these days, he is turning to using chemical peels and laser treatments too. Unfortunately, hypopigmentation issues are more troublesome to treat—in fact, in some instances, there are no treatments available. Dr. Alexis singled out idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis (IGH) as being especially devastating to patients. “IGH is something that can affect anybody, but is more striking when it afflicts darker skin.” He said IGH is most common on female patients of color who are over 40. Often, they have white spots on their lower legs and forearms. Dr. Alexis called IGH an ongoing problem, and one that calls for the use of camouflage cosmetics. According to the results of a recent poll by Obagi Medical Products, regardless of whether or not she is of African-American, Hispanic, Asian or Middle Eastern descent, respondents have unresolved skin challenges. In fact, 47% of survey respondents said that they see a dermatologist for dark spots, uneven skin tone or hyperpigmentation. However, only 11% of the surveyed women expressed a strong familiarity with hydroquinone and 61% of the women happi • 55

were not at all familiar with hydroquinone. But perhaps most startling, 58% of surveyed women say they struggle to find skin care products that meet their needs, suggesting an opportunity to further educate consumers about available treatments. Even when they’ve found products they are willing to purchase, less than half of those polled (47%) said their current regimen meets their expectations, despite the fact that most of the women (52%) spent more than $100 on skin care products in the past year. “Obagi Medical commissioned this poll to help us better understand the needs and concerns of our consumers,” said Jim Hartman, vice president-global marketing and business development in a statement. “The results indicate to us that we have an opportunity and obligation to educate women about the treatments that are available for many of the skin conditions noted; and that partnering with a physician is critical in achieving desired results.” Hyperpigmentation and genetic dark circles are among the most common of problems facing the ethnic beauty consumer, agreed K.

While there’s no doubt a need for ethnic skin care products, economic uncertainty has many consumers rethinking purchases of those creams, lotions and serums, according to industry experts. “Findings from our recent market research consumer study indicated over half of the respondents decreased spending on beauty products due to the slow economy,” said Parris.“Among those who cut back on spending, most will wait until their current product runs out before repurchasing.” To entice all those budget-conscious consumers, Parris notes that nearly 90% of Black Radiance cosmetics are priced under $5 and the high quality formulas and packaging are very appealing and user friendly. He cited AC Nielsen data that reports nearly 80% of 2011 ethnic cosmetic dollars are being driven by two key categories: face (up 15.5% to $10.5 million) and lip (up 4.1% to $3.7 million). No wonder that’s where his company is focusing its launch activity. For the face, Black Radiance recently rolled out Complexion Perfection system featuring Shine Control Primer, Undereye Concealer and Liquid Foundation.The liquid foundation package features a removable and washable brushhead for hygienic application and longer wear, according to Parris. New Artisan Color Baked Blush & Artisan Color Baked Bronzers have tallied sales of more $200,000 since launch and are on pace to become some of Black Radiance’s most successful new products. For lips, new Ice Angel Refreshing Lipgloss, Black Radiance’s first flavored lip product, has recorded sales of more than $125,000 and new Indelibly Sheer Lip Tint is on pace to exceed the $100,000 milestone. Both are priced at $2.99. At Fashion Fair, the company is launching True Tone products to address October 2011

skin discoloration, hyper-pigmentation, blemishes and acne scarring. According to Wilson, these products are designed for women of color who have very sensitive skin. True Tone Dark Spot Corrector evens out dark spots and True Tone Moisturizer with SPF 15 protects the skin. Both contain Indian crest flower and white ginger extract, which have“wonderful results”on brown skin tones, according to Wilson.

What’s Ahead? Since ethnic consumers purchase skin care products for the general population 11 times more often than ethnic-specific brands, the best opportunities for growth may lie outside the US. Dowd of Packaged Facts suggested that the biggest potential for bleaching creams is in Asia, where even sales to men are growing. Elsewhere, he predicted that demand for these skin lighteners will grow in Africa as the economies on the continent continue to expand. There’s certainly a market for safe, effective products. Last month, the European Union consumer safety network RAPEX warned that certain skin whiteners imported from Africa have been blocked from sale in Europe due to illegal use of hydroquinone.

In Portugal, customs officers blocked imports of Democratic Republic of the Congo-made imports of Angel Cosmetics’ Clairmen brand and Caro White cream, plus Ivory Coast-made Skin Light cream; in Austria, retailers pulled Ivory Coastmade Skin Light cream; and French authorities even issued a warning about French-made Fair & White cream. RAPEX is the EU rapid alert system for all dangerous consumer products, with the exception of food, pharmaceutical and medical devices. Its goal is to allow for the rapid exchange of information between Member States via central contact points and the commission of measures taken to prevent or restrict the marketing or use of products posing a serious risk to the health and safety of consumers. Both measures ordered by national authorities and measures taken voluntarily by producers and distributors are covered by RAPEX. Every Friday, the Commission publishes a weekly overview of the dangerous products reported by the national authorities.

Prevent and Correct

Back in the US, according to Parris of Black Radiance, during the past few years, as Generation X has moved into their 30s and 40s, there has become a growing need for ethnic cosmetics to provide preventative and correction-based formulas that help to balance maturing ethnic skin and protect from environmental transgressors. “In addition to the issues of maturing skin, there is also a set of many inherent problems that face ethnic skin that mainstream brands do not strive to respond to,” he told HAPPI. “As we move into an increasingly polyethnic era, the challenge is to create beauty products with an even deeper shade range and with formulas that provide a multi-purpose benefit.” Black Radiance rolled Fashion Fair has out Complexion Perfecbeen meeting the tion earlier this year. needs of ethnic consumers since 1973. According to Wilson, the major change in the ethnic skin care market is the wealth of

information available at her fingertips. “Word of mouth is now at lightening speed on the internet and the beauty secrets you once received from your girlfriend at work or a family member may now be your girlfriend you have never met thousands of miles away,” she explained. “The result is a well-informed consumer with a clear idea of her needs and a greater understanding of how her body functions and interacts with beauty products.”

More Opportunities And yet, Wilson insisted that there is not a sufficient variety of options for this woman even as science continues to unveil new findings in the form of new ingredients and applications for women with high melanin skin tones. These new findings provide Fashion Fair new and greater opportunities to address the skin care needs of women of color, she said. At the same time, other changes are impacting the market, according to Wilson. “The environment we live in has changed, diets have changed, the way we socialize has changed; therefore consumer needs have changed,”she said.“Our smart phone is our shopping guide. She is aware of the latest laser treatments to the newsworthy ingredients.” Wilson noted that the consumer cares just as much about the efficacy of the products as the presentation. And now her product commentary is usually not shared with the consumer department but directly to the world of friends all connected via the web. According to Parris, as the ethnic consumer evolves, so has her look. She may opt for the healthy radiant look and consider a tinted moisturizer with a blushing and bronzing powder for a year-round subtle glow. She is also customizing her lip colors by layering a variety of lipgloss shades over her staple lipstick for added dimension. “In the future, “he continued, “more natural innovation from ingredient suppliers specifically formulating products that are compatible with ethnic skin tones is key.”• October 2011

Necessity? Single-use nonwoven wipes can be either a must-have or one of life’s little indulgences. Christine Esposito • Associate Editor

T

O THE MOM FACED WITH a diaper explosion at the local mall, wipes are survival gear. But when she gets home from her girls’ night out and needs to remove her eye makeup, a traditional cleanser and hand towel will do just fine. And so it goes with wipes. In some situations, they are an absolute necessity, one of those modern conveniences that users won’t do without. But other times, well, while a wipe would be nice, the old way of cleaning seems sufficient—especially when the budget is tight.

Right at Home In household care specifically, wipes were a disruptive technology, shaking up the category and growing exponentially in sales and by the number of launches. Today it is easy for consumers to find a task-specific wipe for just about every household chore, whether it is cleaning the counter (in the kitchen or bathroom), polishing the furniture or de-smudging an iPad screen. Yet with a stale economy that has Americans less likely to stockpile products and more likely to cut their household budgets, consumers are rethinking the contents of their cleaning buckets. October 2011

“The US consumer will certainly attempt to economize as a result of strained household incomes, but the ease and convenience of disposable household wipes has enduring appeal,”said Howard Telford, research associate at Euromonitor. “Rather than revert back to sprays or rags, I would anticipate attempts to economize within the category.” According to Telford, consumers may trade down to private label wipes, or gravitate to versatile, all-in-one cleaning wipes as opposed to surface specific product lines. “Multi-purpose wipes that can be used happi.com

in several rooms of the house can be an effective way to retain the convenience of disposables while keeping the household cleaning budget under control,”he said. And while value sales of all-purpose cleaning wipes fell 3% in 2010 to $419 million, according to Euromonitor’s own figures, the market research firm is bullish about the future of the category. “Although we have not yet conducted our wipes research for 2011, I am expecting the all-purpose cleaning wipes market to demonstrate a return to positive growth this year, and mid-year indicators have happi • 61

been encouraging,”Telford noted. Wipes have helped drive recent growth at Clorox. Its cleaning unit—which covers laundry, home care and away from home— posted 4% gains in volume and sales, with home care shipments growing behind “strong merchandising on Clorox disinfecting wipes,”the company said in early August upon release of its sales figures for the fiscal fourth quarter.

Seasonal Sales August is months away from cold and flu season, but it can be a hot month for wipes as the antibacterial/disinfection message rises up during back-to-school time. Along with No. 2 pencils and marble composition books, wipes have become staples on teacher supply lists—and parents are often asked to send in a large container with their child on opening day. The goal is to help keep classrooms clean, and ultimately, kids in school. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 22 million school days are lost each year to the common cold alone, and along with washing hands, the agency recommends placing

disinfecting wipes in classrooms, and encouraging students and staff to wipe down frequently-touched surfaces. The trick for marketers is getting backto-school shoppers to pick up their brand in the sea of wipes stocked at the store. This back-to-school season, Lysol offered consumers a rebate for a free canister of Lysol wipes when they purchased any two other Lysol products. In addition, the Reckitt Benckiser brand is running the Blue Ribbon School Attendance Challenge—schools that demonstrate the best attendance rate and parent participation in the program during the month of November will win rewards. A total of $25,000 in prizes is available, according to Lysol, which holds the No. 3 and 4 spots in the all-purpose cleaner cloth category, according to recent data from SymphonyIRI, Chicago (see chart below).

of the world’s consumers, now and for generations to come—guides and inspires everything we do. Swiffer has consistently brought forward innovation products designed to meet the unmet needs of consumers versus traditional cleaning methods such as sweeping, mopping and dusting.”

Tools of the Trade

Dr. Sears, the parenting expert, has expanded into personal care products, including baby wipes.

when purse strings need to be tightened. “During a recession, brand equity and trust becomes even more important to consumers, noted Gary Rizzo, associate brand manger, Lysol.“Since Lysol is the No. 1 pediatrician-recommended brand and our products are proven to kill 99.9% of germs, we have a truly loyal consumer base. These consumers have used our products for years and continue to do so, despite changes in the economy.” To combat private label’s price attraction, wipes marketers have been rolling out improved performance and other user-friendly attributes, including packaging upgrades and unique scents, to offer more value. For example, Lysol offers Dual Action Wipes, a dual-sided cloth that features built-in scrubbing fibers on one side with a second side that’s smooth for everyday touch ups. More recently, this summer, Reckitt rolled out Lysol X-tra Large Wipes, which are 50% larger, allowing consumers to clean bigger messes or cover a larger area with just one wipe. “X-tra Large Wipes are available in both base and dual action wipe formats and fit on any floor sweeper, which is another great added benefit,”according to Rizzo. Procter & Gamble has also unveiled improved technology within its Swiffer range, which relies on disposable cloths to clean a number of household surfaces. 64 • happi

According to P&G, the new Swiffer lineup offers consumers “HD” cleaning capability. Specifically, the new Swiffer High Definition line of Dusters features Dust-Lock Adhesive technology, which combines textured dusting strips with thousands of dust locking fibers, according to Corey Schmidt, section head, Swiffer R&D. The technology, according to Schmidt, traps and locks two times more dust than a dry cloth, holding on to more dust even in hard to reach places and tight areas. In addition, Swiffer Duster has a new ergonomically redesigned handle that is easier to assemble and holds the duster pads more securely, while redesigned Swiffer Sweeper Dry Cloths have deeper ridges that more easily conform to the surface floors, such as tiled surfaces that have grout lines and crevices. It is tweaks like those that keep customers coming back to Swiffer, insist P&G executives. “From the beginning, we’ve learned from consumers the specific upgrades they desired in traditional cleaning methods and designed our Swiffer products to exceed their expectations. To this day, Swiffer continues to delight consumers with innovative products. Our most recent technology upgrades keep loyalists coming back,”said Jeff Pierce, P&G external relations, Home Care.“Our purpose—to improve the lives happi.com

Those improved Swiffer cloths can also be used on Evolution Robotics’ newest cleaning robot—the Mint Plus Automatic Floor Cleaner. Relying on Evolution’s NorthStar technology, the nearly $300 device adapts to different home environments through floor sensors that allow it to adjust the friction of the wipe to maintain optimal traction with its wheels. The disposable wipe has also made its way into the growing at-home beauty device market. Neutrogena’s Wave Sonic Power Cleanser, for example, uses a predosed, single-use pad to loosen and lift away skin-dulling impurities for softer and visibly brighter skin after just one use, according to the J&J brand. Keeping wipes a part of the consumer’s daily routine is paramount for repeat purchases, and a change in packaging or dispensing is another strategy employed by wipes marketers to increase usage. Along those lines, Kimberly-Clark recently unveiled a new OneTouch dispensing tub for its Cottonelle Flushable Moist Wipes. The proprietary design is sleek and modern, with a significantly larger button that requires less force to push open. For a limited time, the brand is offering the dispensing tub with a free Cottonelle EasyReach Hanger, which installs using Command brand strips from 3M. In baby wipes, which remain far and away the largest category in personal wipes, private label retains a strong and growing presence with many large retailers marketing their own product lines. To garner attention away from store brands, K-C’s standout diaper franchise, Huggies, has been getting creative with its wipes packaging. In connection with the rollout of limited-edition Huggies Little Movers camo diapers, the firm unveiled limited October 2011

edition Huggies camo wipes in camo-inspired pack. Both were sold exclusively at Walmart. “Licensing and similar marketing innovations will be increasingly important, as the overall market for infant care is challenged by a declining birth rate in the US,” said Telford.

Green Scene The eco trend—in materials and ingredi-

ents—is playing a larger role in the wipes market. For example, like Huggies, another trusted name when it comes to raising baby is Dr. Sears—and now the well-known pediatrician/parenting expert has entered the personal care side of the baby business. Launched this summer, the Dr. Sears Family Essentials Baby Care range incudes wipes made with biodegradable bamboo fabric. Always eco-minded Burt’s Bees has rolled out new facial cleansing wipes that are made with Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) fibers, specifically wood cellulose. New Burt’s Bees Facial Cleansing Towelettes with White Tea Extract rely on plant-derived cleansers to help remove surface dirt and oil and aloe leaf juice and cucumber extracts to help soothe. Look for green to play a role in household wipes too. “Organic formulations of wipes, particularly in general all-purpose wipes, were a major trend in 2010,”said Telford, who expects non-toxic formulations for impregnated personal and home care wipes to demonstrate strong growth, despite the higher price points of these products during

All About Wipes Wipes are front and center for these three start-up businesses. For the big players in the marketplace, wipes are an easy way to grow their product lines and expand their shelf space. But for small firms, wipes can be their bread and butter. Little Busy Bodies (LBB) for example, has grown considerably since it rolled out its first product, Boogie Wipes, in 2007. Its latest launch is Saline Soothers, a line of wipes rolled out in July that mimic Boogie Wipes, but are “more geared toward something that adults would like to pull out of their bag and use,” said co-founder and CEO Julie Pickens. “We kept hearing from our moms and dads how much they love using Boogie Wipes so we created a wipe specially designed for them. The range features scents that are more adult friendly, like Saline Soothers are new lavender and menthol,” Pickens said. from Little Busy Bodies. 66 • happi

difficult economic conditions.“In both personal care and household cleaning, the US consumer can be expected to prioritize products that he considers to be the safest and most effective product for the household, Telford added.

Pretty Faces Beauty consumers are on the prowl for multi-tasking products that promise to simplify their routine—think of B.B. (beauty balm) creams that promise to treat skin with beneficial ingredients as they minimize pores and even skin tone. Now, Atopalm is answering the double-duty call in wipe form. Its new moisturizing cleansing wipes are said to remove face makeup and leave it supple and hydrated via a blend of vitamin E, allantoin, portulaca oleracea extract and olive, grape seed and jojoba seed oils, The paraben-free, plant-derived ingredients are said to mimic the structure of natural skin lipids to restore the skin’s protective moisture barrier system, according to the company. Above all, beauty customers are also looking for value, according to Eve Yen, founder of Diamond Wipes International and La Fresh. This fall, Diamond Wipes is rolling out a new line of beauty care prod-

Boogie Wipes has been on a tear. It experienced a 200% sales increase in 2010, hitting the $6.5 million mark, according to the Beaverton, OR-based company. Growth can be traced to line extensions as well as effective marketing endeavors, such as its ‘Save the Sleeve’ campaign. “The campaign was very successful at educating children on saving their sleeve—curtains, couch, mom’s pant leg, among other things. Instead of using these common nose-wiping items, we focused children on choosing a fun, natural alternative. Moms everywhere were thrilled,” noted Pickens, who started the brand with cofounder Mindee Doney and a $20,000 investment. Another start-up pair—Erin Whalen and Tim Stansbury—went hunting for investors for their Grease Monkey Wipes on “Shark Tank,” an ABC TV program in which entrepreneurs seek funds from a panel of investors in exchange for equity in their firm. In January 2010, two of the “shark” investors bit, providing Grease Monkey with a $40,000 cash infusion to further develop their wipes business. This month, the Austin, TX-based Grease Monkey brand has inked an endorsement deal with Cannondale’s professional cyclocross team as well as two of the sports’ athletes—Tim Johnson and Meredith Miller.

ucts under the Pretty Touch banner. The Pretty Touch line includes Acne Killer treatment pads, Makeup Gone eye and lip pads and Wash Away face cleansing wipes. “We developed this line because—now more than ever—beauty consumers are seeking value with every purchase…they want performance, convenience and a great price served up with a bit of fun, glamour and entertainment,”Yen told HAPPI.“[They] are only $4.99 each, yet they rival the performance of many well-known brands out there. We gave the brand a lot of color and coyness. I think the tagline ‘Be Flirty Not Dirty’says it all.” Along with more SKUs, La Fresh/Diamond Wipes is growing its shelf presence. While Eco-Beauty products can currently be found in Bliss Spas they’ll soon be stocked at Regis salons and DermStore.com—and this fall, they will debut on MomoTV, Taiwan’s No. 1 home shopping channel.

Sun Care: A Wipe Out? Even as wipes proliferate, there’s a new area in which they may be wiped out: sun care. Recent changes announced by the US FDA regarding sunscreens will clearly impact the niche market for sunscreen wipes. In its June 17, 2011 Advance Notice of

Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR) on dosage forms, FDA states that it does not currently consider sunscreen wipes eligible for inclusion in the OTC sunscreen monograph. According to FDA’s Reynold Tan, interdisciplinary scientist, division of Nonprescription Regulation Development, Office of Drug Evaluation IV, to be eligible for inclusion in an OTC monograph, products generally must have substantiated evidence showing that they were marketed OTC in the US prior to 1972, the date the OTC Drug Review began—i.e., the date the OTC monograph review process began. “We do not have this evidence for sunscreen wipes,”he told HAPPI. The onus is on the wipes market to deliver what FDA needs. “We are currently issuing a letter to educate our private label customers on the 2011 ANPR, namely the omission of wipes and towelettes as approved dosage forms for OTC sunscreens, and the resulting ramifications,” said Yen of La Fresh/Diamond Wipes.“We’re making sure our customers know that they have the option to submit their products to the FDA for eligibility. But until the approvals are officialized, we unfortunately won’t be making any sunscreen wipes for our own brands

key as the heavy duty, citrus based wipes were developed to tackle the heavy grease that Stansbury, as an avid cyclist, would encounter while making on-the-road repairs. Another bike ride led to another wipe product—Paper Shower. Having stopped at a Starbucks after a morning mountain bike ride, Dr. Jim Bahcall used a moist towelette to wipe the sweat off his face, hands, arms and legs. Although the alcohol-based towelette was designed to dry quickly, he felt as if he walked out of the shower without a towel to dry off. It was at that moment the thought came to him: why not include a dry towelette in the pack too? From there, Paper Shower was born—that is, after market research and business plan were mapped out on a paper napkin. “When I thought the idea was worth developing to fruition, I decided to outsource everything from product design to manufacturing. The reasons for outsourcing were to keep our cost down and allow us to respond to the consumer market much quicker,” Bahcall told HAPPI. Paper Shower’s “wet” product is designed to be a body wipe; it is a highly saturated unscented, 9” by 12” moist towelette that contains water, soap and skin moisturizers. That pack is connected to one containing the same size dry towelette. October 2011

or our customers’ brands.”

The Market Outlook Even with a sluggish economy, wipes will remain a big part of consumers’lives. According to data from INDA (the Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry), consumer retail sales of disposable wipes have risen from $720 million in 2007 to almost $4 billion last year—and the association is predicting a steady climb for the next few years. INDA expects sales and volume to rise to almost $5 billion by the end of 2015, noted Ian Butler, director of market research and statistics at INDA.“We also expect further sales increases of this industry as the producers target the medical and industrial markets.” But not every wipes category is destined to clean up. Virginia Lee, senior research analyst at Euromonitor, isn’t forecasting the same growth pattern for facial cleansing wipes, a category that saw value sales decline by 8% in 2010. As she told HAPPI,“The recession impacted sales of facial cleansing wipes as they carry higher per-use prices than liquid facial cleansers, and consumers sought to economize. Sales of facial cleansing wipes are expected to continue declining in 2011.”•

While the product was recently named a finalist in the World of Wipes 2011 Innovation Awards this summer, Bahcall recognizes that carving out a successful business takes time. “It is important to keep in mind that as Americans we are born Paper Shower is a wet towelette sized for the body, consumers and go through life packed with a dry wipe. being exposed to hundreds of thousands of products. Since most of us have heard of a get rich quick product success story, we have this false sense of reality that if I invent a product, getting it to retail will be easy and I will make millions of dollars. Not so! Getting Paper Shower to retail shelves has taken time, patience and money,” he said. His company is currently selling Paper Shower online (papershower.com and Amazon.com) and is growing the brand through word of mouth and social media as it attends trade shows to get in front as many retailers as possible. “We are anticipating being in big box sporting good stores and mass market retailers either later this year or early 2012,” Bahcall said.

HETHER A MARKETER is creating a high-tech beauty balm, a natural-based kitchen spray or a pigment-rich crème eyeshadow, the product must stand out on shelf by making unique product claims and then delivering them safely. After all, if that longwear formulation rubs off in an hour or a countertop mess isn’t cleaned up properly after usage, consumers won’t buy the product again or even worse, will share their displeasure on their social network of choice. Enter testing service providers—companies that run studies to determine whether or not a formulation is efficacious or safe. But how does a formulator go about finding the right one?

October 2011

Essential Qualities When seeking out a testing service provider, it’s all about word of mouth, according to Bradford Rope, president, BioScreen Testing Services, Inc., Torrance, CA. “Because BioScreen deals with a variety of companies from prescription drug companies to personal care, our clients generally are looking for a laboratory with good credentials, strong industry and FDA history,” he told HAPPI.“Additionally, it is important to our clients that the lab have excellent technical and regulatory knowledge.” Howard L. Kaminsky, director of advertising/marketing for AMA Laboratories, Inc., New City, NY, agreed. “In this very competitive market, with so many rapidly occurring improvements in happi.com

cosmetic products, all clients are seeking testing services that can provide accurate, rapid and competitively priced testing. Companies prize longstanding relationships with testing facilities that are dependable, consistent and timely,”he said. For example, AMA offers a complete state-of-the-art hair, nail and cosmetic salon managed and operated by a certified/licensed cosmetologist, as there are a number of laboratory tests that are routinely employed to evaluate personal care products. Color is one of the most important aspects of the evaluations at this lab; the Minolta Color Computer (Chroma Meter) and a full range of color charts are popular to compare and match visual with instrumental color characteristics. happi • 69

“One of the biggest issues testing labs face are clients demanding fast, accurate results of complex analysis that require sensitive testing methodologies. Clients face many challenges to get their products to the shelf, and accelerating the process can lead to undesirable consequences,” noted Angie Inouye, director of business development, Consumer Product Testing Company, Inc., Fairfield NJ. “The efficacy of a product’s performance is the key to its survival in today’s marketplace. In the state of the current economy, the consumer is definitely searching for the quality in value and effective products. Determining the efficacy of products in the lab during the development phase will have a significant impact while evaluating the strongest performing formulations.” Consumer Product Testing Company provides analytical, microbiological, clinical, toxicological and photobiological testing services, in addition to regulatory consulting services. The facility has “hot” rooms (high temperature and humidity controlled) for running antiperspirant effectiveness and odor evaluation studies according to published monographs and client requirements; stability chambers consisting of nine environmentally controlled areas that provide the client with multiple options regarding accelerated stability programs; and temperature and humidity-controlled rooms to perform studies in moisturization, utilizing technologies such as Novameters, Corneometers and Evaporimeters.

Issues Making an Impact A higher standard of regulations across the board—from the government to retail outlets—is inspiring marketers to increase testing efforts to prove that household and personal care products deliver on their claims. According to Rope of BioScreen, recently, the FDA has stepped up enforcement in a number of key areas. He explained,“We are seeing more actions due to misbranded or mislabeled products or those with misleading claims. Additionally, HSN and QVC have taken a tough stance to make sure that products they sell on air have proper claims substantiation.” Besides a more active regulatory environment, the introduction of natural and organic materials into cosmetics and the drive to use new natural preservation have all had an impact on the testing industry, added Rope. Additionally, changes to the monograph for SPF claims will place demands on marketers to reformulate and laboratories to increase capabilities in this area. “In the Final Monograph for Sunscreens of 2011, the FDA has eliminated human testing for UVA and now requires invitro UVA testing,”noted Debra Harrison of Harrison Research Laboratories, Inc., Union, NJ. Her company has numerous international clients including North American, South American, European and Asian comhappi.com

panies, and therefore needs to keep up with the global regulations in the industry. UVB and UVA SPF/PFA tests are routinely performed in HRL’s 10-position sunscreen testing department. As well, in vitro UVA testing is performed. Also, HRL performs SPF tests on site: static, water resistant and very water resistant (waterproof). Timelines are so tight that companies need tests to start quickly, end on time and they need results and reports immediately. According to Harrison, technology has led to faster turn around time. “I would say that the biggest issues impacting the testing services marketplace is the ability to offer ‘value-added’ opportunities to the results of classic scientific cosmetic testing,”noted Kaminsky of AMA Laboratories.“Such information will serve to enhance monadic and competitive product claims that have to be demonstrated by the standard tests.” For example, AMA Laboratories provides cutting-edge matched scientific photography to its clients. According to Kaminsky, his company has developed a unique proprietary photographic system called PhotoGrammetrix, which accomplishes this function. The system developed at AMA provides a continuous, carefully controlled series of scientifically matched, high-resolution digital photographs taken chronologically during the course of an actual clinical study. All of the photographic variables, (i.e. color standards, white balance, lighting) are kept constant throughout the course of the study. PhotoGrammetrix includes a trained observer evaluating and scoring subjects and October 2011

all results are supported by instrumental/ biophysical measurements. AMA uses the technology to evaluate a wide range of cosmetic products used to treat topical conditions. After returning from the 8th World Congress on Alternatives & Animal Use in Life Sciences held in Montreal, Canada, Rich Ulmer, president and chief executive officer of InVitro International, Irvine, CA, observed an increase in demand for in vitro testing providers. “Perhaps first and foremost, the buying public wants this direction for testing badly. Compassion for animals is a global human response,” he told HAPPI. “Next, it makes economic sense for companies to shorten their new product development cycles by months, sometimes a year or more, via nonanimal testing vs. in vivo approaches. Many companies get in vitro test results, go straight to small (and then larger) scale

human ‘clinical’ testing, and then launch local/regional actual test marketing if not on an even larger scale. The laboratories/companies which provide in vitro testing are not that great in number at this time.”

What’s Next in 2012? The continued push for more regulation of the personal care industry will place more demands on marketers to perform valid and verifiable testing from safety to claims substantiation, according to Rope of BioScreen. Also, laboratories and marketers alike will be under more public scrutiny than ever before due to the internet and the rapid exchange of information to the public. “Companies should be ahead of the new regulations by making sure that their testing and claims meets accepted industry methodologies and standards so that they do not become a target in the new Internet Age,”he said.

“In my opinion, future trends in testing services for 2012 and beyond will include, if not require, the ability to identify and test for the scientific advancements in product formulations,”said Kaminsky of AMA Laboratories. “As cosmetic products become more and more efficacious we must be able, as a testing service, to substantiate these many product improvements, so that these new products succeed in this evermore competitive cosmetic industry. Inouye of Consumer Product Testing Company concurred.“The industry has recognized the tremendous impact of how the knowledgeable consumer has influenced the development process. They are seeking innovative products and ingredients that meet their specific needs with measurable, proven results.”• A listing of testing service providers begins on p. 73 in this issue.

RECENT FDA ACTION Draws Big Crowd IN FLORIDA The Florida Chapter of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists held its semi-annual Sunscreen Symposium and drew a big crowd as the industry sought answers to the recent rulings by the US FDA. Tom Branna • Editorial Director

W

HAT’S NEW under the sun took on

Despite some confusion surrounding UV protection,

a whole new meaning at this year’s Sunscreen Symposium, which was held Oct. 15-17 in Orlando, FL. That’s because it was the first event to take place post-FDA action on sunscreens and industry executives were eager to find out how the new rules regarding testing and labeling would impact their businesses. The event is sponsored by the Florida Chapter of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists. Attendees weren’t disappointed as keynote speaker, Reynold Tan of the US Food and Drug Administration provided information on the FDA’s request for more information on sunscreen. “We are sincere about being more transparent,” he told the audience. On June 17, FDA issued a final rule on testing and labeling requirements as well as a proposed rule on maximum labels of SPF 50. In addition, the FDA gave advance notice of proposed rulemaking regarding dosage forms and draft guidance on FDA enforcement policy. Tan urged the audience to supply more data and information regarding SPF 50+ limits and spray forms. He noted that when the monograph was first proposed in 1978, the maximum allowed limit was SPF 15. By 1993, the limit was raised to SPF 30, by 2007 it had jumped to SPF 50. But he warned, however, that there is insufficient data demonstrating that products with SPFs higher than 50 provide additional benefit.

applying sunscreen early and often remains one of the

80 • happi

best defenses against sun damage.

According to Tan, the FDA has three concerns regarding high SPFs: • Consumer overestimation of protection; • Increased potential for skin irritation and sensitization; and • SPF 50 already protects against 98% of UV dose that causes sunburn—there is little additional reduction by higher SPFs. “We know that higher SPFs may have benefits, but people don’t use enough,”he observed. Regarding issues of dosage,Tan told the audience that oils, creams, lotions, gels, butters, pastes, ointments, sticks and sprays are all eligible for inclusion in the OTC sunscreen monograph. Wipes, towelettes, powders, body washes and shampoos are not eligible. At the same time, FDA is requesting more efficacy and safety data for sprays. happi.com

“We encourage you to submit data,”Tan concluded. “We can make a conclusion based on rich data, but we want comments from other people besides the Personal Care Product Council.”

Consumer Acceptance A sunscreen should offer plenty of protection against UV, but if it is aesthetically unpleasant, consumers won’t use it. Chuck Jones of Dow Chemical provided details on how to create consumer acceptable inorganic sunscreens based on zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. More specifically, the goal of his study was to investigate some factors that impact whiteness and then try to maximize SPF while minimizing whiteness. There are several ways to accomplish that goal, including adding an SPF booster such as styrene/acrylates copolymer; adding a dispersing agent, such as methylOctober 2011

cellulose or galactorabinan, to provide a distribution of inorganic and higher SPF and adding an organic stabilizer/emollient such as butyloctyl salicylate. “The particle size is not the key element in whiteness,” he told the audience.“Titanium dioxide appears to offer more SPF value with minimum whiteness. Aside from causing a painful burn, UV light also ages skin. Nava Dayan of Lipo Chemicals explained the harmful effects of high-energy visible (HEV) light to skin. She maintained that HEV generates as many free radicals as UVA and UVB combined. That’s because HEV light penetrates more deeply into the skin, going all the way to the bloodstream. In fact, Dayan maintained that HEV interacts with DNA to produce reactive oxygen species. Dayan’s research partner, Anna Langerveld of Genemarkers LLC, provided details on a study to measure the effects of HEV at the gene expression level. “This is the first study to use gene expression profiling to understand the effects of HEV light on skin,”she explained. Gene expression technologies include microassays and qPCR (polymerase chain reaction).The former measure up to 45,000 transcripts at a time and are ideal for discovery-based studies, according to Langerveld, who added that microassay results are often confirmed with qPCR. Langerveld told the audience that PCR 82 • happi

methods have improved dramatically. Today’s technology is automated, highly reproducible and more sensitive compared to 15-20 years ago. In addition to new ways to measure the impact of light on skin, there are also new ways to measure sunscreen efficacy. Bernd Herzog of BASF introduced the audience to Radical Status Factor (RSF), which is a derivative of electron spin resonance spectroscopy (ESR). The RSF is derived from ESR data of UV irradiated pigskin samples in the presence and absence of sunscreen. According to Herzog, there is a good correlation of the RSF with the UVA protective properties of sunscreen. Herzog warned, however, that the experimental RSF values appeared to be higher than expected from calculations, yet RSF is a suitable metric for the characterization of the radical status of the skin. It’s one thing to protect skin from UV radiation. But what about protecting UVlight sensitive active ingredients that are often used in skin care products? Hallstar’s Craig Bonda explained why retinol and retinyl palmitate are sensitive to UV radiation, undergoing rapid isomerization and production of photoproducts. He noted that retinol is oxidatively and thermally stable for up to eight hours under conditions that simulate application to the skin. But adding ethylhexyl methoxycrylene protects these ingredients from degradation, and probably does so by a singlet-quenching mechanism. “Keep your skin care actives fully active and doing their jobs by photostabilizing them,”he told the audience. Consumers prefer sprayable sunscreen formulas because they are easy to apply— especially on squirming children. Olga Dueva-Koganov of AkzoNobel explained how the addition of a water-resistant polymer, acrylates/octylacrylamide copolymer to a sunscreen spray provides a physical protective barrier that reduces TEWL and retains the stratum corneum’s water content. Dueva-Koganov’s research suggests that optimization of multifunctional sunscreen sprays is possible by using contact happi.com

angle measurement as a means to predict TEWL and provide comprehensive comparison of benchmarks that have been recently launched in the US. A lively roundtable debate, moderated by Dennis Lott of Florida Suncare Testing, closed the first day of the Sunscreen Symposium. Participants included first-day presenters such as Tan and Dueva-Koganov, as well as Dominique Moyal, L’Oréal; HAPPI columnist Nadim Shaath, Alpha R&D; and Joe Stanfield, Suncare Research Laboratories. The panelists weighed in on a variety of topics. Moyal, for example, suggested that the FDA’s critical wavelength parameter of 370nm might not provide sufficient broad-spectrum UV protection. Rather, she suggested that UVAPF/SPF balance is a more important consideration. To the question, “Should there be an upper limit to the total percentage of actives allowed in a formula?,”Shaath asked: “Should the percentage of actives allowed be limited?”He noted that a typical SPF100 formula is 30-40% active, but that a formula can contain as much as 75% active ingredients. The panelists were in agreement that because the maximum amount of active ingredients in a formula is 39%, the industry is regulating itself. Another question—“Should SPFs be capped at 50?”—brought strong reaction from panelists.Tan wondered if higher SPF products can be tested accurately and reproducibly, and if they actually provide any additional benefits to the consumer, citing issues such as irritation and vitamin D production. He also suggested that these higher SPF products might give consumers a false sense of security when it comes to excessive UV exposure. But Lott, like many in the audience, insisted that higher SPF products do provide valuable added protection and should not be capped—and certainly not at 50. Regarding sunscreen sprays, FDA is requesting additional data. Tan asked if there are better test procedures available and if SPF values for sprays are comparable to SPF values for lotions.

coverage to skin than lotion—2.66mg/cm2 for sprays versus .74mg/cm2 for lotion.

Going Global Although actions by the US FDA have been in the news of late, it is not the only governing body impacting sunscreens and UV protection. Jennifer Martin Rempe of Energizer provided an overview of ingredients used in the US, European Union, Canada, Australia and elsewhere. The goal, she explained, is to eliminate the current“patchwork quilt” of regulations. That could be difficult, especially now that the Andean countries are getting set to issue their own regulations. But the US has fewer approved UVA filters than other countries and there is little reason to expect the situation to improve in the near future, according to Martin Rempe. She noted that there are only 16 approved UV filters in the US (and only a few are actually in use). In contrast, Australia has 26, the EU, 27; and Japan, 31. Still, she acknowledged that the FDA’s Final Rule regarding testing and labeling“shows some creativity”on the part of the agency. Martin Rempe predicted that in the future, UVA will have increasing importance with consumers and have equal weight in formulation if not labeling. “In a few years, there may be increased tolerance for skin aging claims,”she added. With so many novel active ingredients still bogged down in the TEA (time and extent application) process, Martin Rempe suggested that the Monograph should never be finalized. Instead, the US should follow the European system, which gets refined as the science changes. “That doesn’t happen so easily in the US,”she concluded.“We need to be able to refine the system every five years.”

radicals, as well as cell, DNA and stem cell protection, and age spot reduction. To prevent radical oxidative stress, Rahn has created a material from rosmarinic acid, rutin and barley extract that counteracts oxidative stress and prevents cell damage. To protect cells and DNA, Rahn markets a material that combines ethylferulate to neutralize oxygen radicals, carnosolic acid to combat free radicals and uridine monophosphate, which supports DNA repair. To protect stem cells, the company developed a material with the INCI name: Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil, ethyl ferulate, polyglyceryl-5 trioleate, rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) leaf extract, water, disodium uridine phosphate. To reduce age spots, Rahn offers a material that combines stabilized vitamin C with zinc PCA and oleuropein. Finally, Rahn has created a sun protection concept that provides five-fold protection for skin (UV protection, stem cell and DNA protection, dryout protection and protection from light-induced skin aging), by combining UV filters and cosmetic actives along with oils, glycerin or aloe vera gel for hydration. Merck’s Thomas Rudolph provided new insights into the photochemistry of avobenzone, noting that molecular modeling helps chemists better understand photochemical processes. Rudolph reminded the audience that UV filters, whether photostable or not, can be photoreactive. Finally, he noted that complete photostability is achievable with triplet quenchers, specific antioxidants and regenerators. In light of the recent actions by FDA, Symposium attendees had the opportunity to visit with dozens of industry suppliers in the exhibition hall.

More on Ingredients While filters and blocks are the primary defenses against UV radiation, Stefan Baenziger of Rahn Cosmetics said that adding cosmetic actives to formulations can reduce detrimental secondary damage, provide a second line of defense and offer new claims, including protection against free October 2011

John Staton of Dermatest took a closer look at zinc oxide to see if it could stand on its own as an active ingredient in formulation. He concluded that the new in-vitro UVA broad-spectrum test is valid for zinc oxide. However, in thin film, zinc oxide is subject to both physical and chemical changes. Finally, it is possible to modify the behavior of the active in order to improve performance. “Don’t abandon zinc oxide. It is still a very efficacious active ingredient,” he concluded. “But we’ve shown that there are changes taking place in this inert ingredient.” Robert Coots of Colonial Chemical explained how the benefits of replacing ethoxylated emulsifiers with sorbitan oleate decylglucoside crosspolymers. The materials are safe, green and naturally derived, have low irritation and can be easily formulated into a wide array of cosmetic products. According to Coots, eliminating ethoxylated emulsifiers will appeal to consumers who want to minimize possible contact with suspected carcinogens. Erica Babson of Active Concepts detailed the use of enzymes to modulate repair and augment sunscreen formulas for added protection. For example, T4 Endonuclease is an enzyme that induces single-stranded breaks in UV-irradiated DNA. Histone deacetylases are enzymes that remove acetyl groups from certain histone amino acids. DNA is wrapped around histones and deacetylases help control DNA expression, according to Babson, who told the audience that new DNA repair treatment sunscreens that contain enzymes reduce DNA damage by 45% and increase UV protection by 300%. “Enzymes in sunscreens not only repair, but also prevent damage,”she concluded. The Symposium’s final speaker, Jürgen Vollhardt of DSM, reviewed the critical factors that significantly affect high performance sunscreens. These factors include the proper level of UVA filters with good coverage of the spectral region, stabilization of avobenzone, film quality on the skin, and the addition of a UVB block such as titanium dioxide to the formula.• happi • 83

P&G’S SALES RISE 10% IN FISCAL Q4 • The Procter & Gamble Company’s net sales grew 10% to $20.9 billion for the fourth quarter and 5% to $82.6 billion for fiscal 2011. Organic sales, which exclude the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange, grew 5% for the quarter and 4% for the fiscal year. Unit volume was up 3% in the fourth quarter and 6% for the fiscal year, where volume grew in all business segments, all geographic regions, and in 15 of 17 key countries.

“We are pleased with the strong topand bottom-line performance in the quarter,” said chairman of the board, president and chief executive officer Bob McDonald. “We delivered organic sales growth of 5% and earnings per share growth of 18% in a challenging environment, driven by our ongoing commitment to make a difference in the everyday lives of the world’s consumers.”

Church & Dwight’s Sales Rise 5.3% in Q2 •

Febreze is a top brand at P&G. One of its latest innovations is Set & Refresh air fresheners.

According to the company, volume growth was broad-based, with organic growth in five of six reportable segments, led by high single-digit growth in Baby Care & Family Care. All geographic regions added to volume growth, led by double-digit expansion in Asia. Unit volume increased in all reportable segments behind investments in innovation and market expansions, such as Olay and Head & Shoulders in Brazil, Gillette Guard in India, Downy fabric enhancers in Indonesia, Fusion ProGlide expansion in Western Europe, and Gain hand dishwashing liquid in the US. 152 • happi

Church & Dwight Co. reported net sales for the second quarter rose 5.3% to $674.9 million. Organic sales increased 3.3%, driven by volume growth of 3.3%, with results excluding the impact of foreign exchange rate changes, acquisitions and a discontinued product line, the company said. “We are pleased with our solid second quarter business results in what continues to be a difficult economic environment,” noted James R. Craigie, chairman and CEO. “The organic sales increase of 3.3% met the company’s expectations of 3-4% organic sales growth for the quarter. While category consumption continues to be weak in the US, we increased share on five of our eight power brands in the quarter.” Consumer domestic sales were $482.3 million, a 3.6% gain over last year. Second quarter organic sales increased 2.1%, largely driven by higher sales of Arm & Hammer Liquid and Powder Laundry Detergents, Xtra Liquid Laundry Detergent, Arm & Hammer Cat Litter and Nair depilatories. These increases were partially offset by lower sales of value toothpastes and Oxiclean laundry additive, the company said. Volume growth contributed approximately 2.4% to net sales, offset by an 0.3% negative effect of price and product mix in the quarter. Consumer international sales were $126.0 million, up 12.4% above the prior happi.com

year second quarter sales. Organic sales, which exclude a 9.2% favorable effect of foreign exchange rate changes, increased by 3.1%, primarily reflecting increased sales in Australia and US exports. With respect to 2011, Craigie said,“Volume growth projections continue to be strong despite the weak economy and aggressive competitive trade spending in our categories. For the first half of the year, we have gained share on five of eight of our power brands. We expect to maintain or improve this market share growth during the balance of the year due to two key factors: excellent customer response to our new products which are capturing solid distribution gains across many of our key brands, and our commitment to increasing marketing spending for the year in support of our power brands, which will continue in the second half of 2011.” This quarter, the company is rolling out Arm & Hammer Toothtunes, a toothbrush that plays music through a patented technology that allows consumers to listen to two minutes of music while brushing their teeth. It will feature Kid’s Pop, Top 40 and Classic Rock song categories. At the end of June, Church & Dwight completed the acquisition of the Batiste brand of dry shampoo from Vivalis in the UK. The brand holds the No. 1 position in the dry shampoo category in the UK. Annual sales of Batiste are approximately $20 million.

Sales in the company’s international segment, which is being reported as a separate business segment beginning in 2011 after previously having been included in the wholesale segment, climbed 46% to $18.7 million. “Our second quarter results were consistent with the expectations we have communicated since the beginning of the year,” said Harlan Kent, the company’s chief executive officer.“Despite a consumer spending environment that remains very uncertain, we were able to continue to grow our sales and again saw strong performance by several of our growth platforms, including our international, consumer direct, fundraising and wholesale premium mass and department store businesses.” For the six months ended July 2, 2011, retail sales increased 1.7% to $147.8 million.

Verilux Launches At-Home Acne Device

• After more than 10 years of scientific research, Vichy has uncovered the function of a thin layer of cells called the papillary dermis, or Derm Source, a vital layer found to be responsible for driving skin rejuvenation processes, including collagen and elastin production. Over time, Derm Source function deteriorates, leading to visible signs of aging: wrinkles, sagging and a loss of firmness. This understanding of the skin-aging process has led Vichy to develop a new anti-aging range,Vichy LiftActiv with Rhamnose 5%, which works to minimize the signs of aging by directly targeting the Derm Source. Rhamnose is a naturally derived plant extract that has been proven to stimulate Derm Source activity. The new formulation is proven to reduce the appearance of the most common facial wrinkles—forehead, crow's feet, undereye, and between the eyebrows— starting in just two weeks. Overall skin tone and texture also begin to improve after just four days of use, according to the company. More info: www.vichyusa.com

CLARIANT TO DISTRIBUTE KITOZYME BIOPOLYMERS • Clariant has entered into a long-term partnership with KitoZyme to distribute its biopolymers. The complete range of effective, sustainable and sensory enhancing biopolymers for personal care applications of KitoZyme will be available from October 2011 under Clariant trade names Vitipure, Zenvivo and Velsan. According to Sonja Gehm, global marketing manager, Clariant’s move into the biotechnology arena enables the company to participate in the anti-aging and skin repair categories.“This is our first entry into the actives area,” she told HAPPI.“With an aging population, there is high demand for anti-aging products. The time is right for Clariant.” These ingredients cover a wide range of applications and deliver proven high performance including sensory enhancing, skin repair, anti-aging, moisturizing and antimicrobial properties. Overall, they meet the current need for innovative, natural ingredients, according to Clariant. The new Clariant range of chitosan, chitin-glucan and derivatives is extracted from secured vegetal source and is ecofriendly and cost-effective. According to Clariant, in production they are modular and sequenced in such a way that each intermediate product is isolated and purified before moving to the next stage ensuring pure and ultra-pure grade units. Gehm noted that the range of products is multifunctional, enabling formulators to potentially reduce ingredients. For example, chitosan has microbial efficacy, which may enable formulators to reduce the amount of preservative in a product. Chitosan also has film-forming capabilities, which makes it an excellent addition to sunscreen formulations, according to Gehm. “Our actives tackle a lot of different skin parameters at the same time, so the formulation can be made more easily and with new market claims,”Gehm continued. October 2011

Sourced by selected suppliers that meet requirements in terms of purity, microbiological quality and traceability, the materials are produced from fully renewable, non-GMO and traceable fungi, by-products of biotech and food industry, these biopolymers comply with GMP (FDA and EMEA), HACCP and ISO9001: 2008. “Clariant’s decision to partner with KitoZyme is fully in line with our strategy to be the preferred partner to the personal care industry by providing sustainable innovations and superior sensoric differentiation based on formulation expertise and market insight,” said Michael Willome, head of business unit industrial & consumer specialties, Clariant. “This partnership helps us to become a supplier of technology ingredients with the character of differentiation, with the help of new technologies and a deeper product portfolio.”

Symrise To Focus on NatureIdentical Alphabisabolol • Symrise will stop harvesting natural bisabolol from the candeia tree that grows in the Brazilian rainforest as the sustainable supply of the oil can no longer be guaranteed. In the future, Symrise will focus on the production of highly pure nature-identical bisabolol, specifically, Dragosantol and Dragosantol 100. Alpha-bisabolol is an essential soothing ingredient in many personal care products for sensitive skin and hair and for baby care. The natural active substance is derived from the oil of the candeia tree (Vanillosmopsis erythropappa), which grows in Brazil’s Mata Atlantica forest.The tree is endangered because its natural environment is constantly shrinking. Around 20,000m3 of candeia wood are needed every year to cover global demand for candeia oil, according to an estimate by Lavras University. By replacing natural alpha-bisabolol with nature-identical, synthetic alphabishappi.com

abolol in its product portfolio, Symrise is now making an additional contribution to limiting the deforestation of the endangered Atlantic rainforest in Brazil. The use of Dragosantol 100 means that even fewer candeia trees need to be felled. “As the largest supplier of alpha-bisabolol, we are well aware of our responsibility and clearly commit ourselves to safeguarding the Brazilian rainforest,”said Véronique Maurin, global product director cosmetic ingredients at Symrise. “For us, this means making an active contribution to society and the environment.” More info: www.symrise.com
