L'Oréal USA is now the proud parent co. of Essie Cosmetics, the maker of salon nail polishes and select body care products, reports WWD.
According to a joint statement, this acquisition enables L'Oréal to increase its share of the nail care market, whilst providing Essie with the support needed to flourish as a brand...
No word yet on whether founder Essie Weingarten will remain on board after the cheque clears. (I'd escape to a private, Blackberry-less paradise, but that's just me.)
3 hair brushes every woman should own:
Aveda Paddle Brush
Wide-set teeth make this brush ideal for detangling. (More so than a Mason Pearson.)
Mason Pearson Popular Brush
Easy-to-use; It’s the best brush you can have for straightening hair.
Marilyn Round Brush
For a blow dry that gives hair movement, bend and volume.
— Harry Josh, John Frieda International Creative Consultant.

The brand's Bath & Shower Gels and Body Lotions are selling so well that they've decided to return the love by offering a (permanent) price reduction— the former are now only $18.50 (org. $28) and the latter, $22.50 ($28).
Happy shopping! x

---CONTEST NOW EXPIRED---
Known as much for their pioneering of human rights and environmental issues as their beauty products, The Body Shop’s latest campaign aims to help stop the sex trafficking of children and young people.
Every year an estimated 1.8 million child victims are trafficked for sexual exploitation or cheap labor. I only recently learned of this shocking fact at a documentary screening hosted by the Body Shop of Playground.
A pervasive epidemic worldwide, the commercial child sex industry is thriving— human trafficking is the third largest and fastest growing criminal industry in the world (after drugs and guns) but with awareness and support, this horrific trade can be stopped. The Body Shop will donate 60% of your purchase of Soft Hands Kind Heart Hand Cream to ECPAT to help stop sex trafficking of children and young people around the world.
For further information on this issue and how you can help, visit TheBodyShop.com/Stop. We hope you'll get involved in this worthy cause— the future of the future is in your well moisturized hands.
