Verfora Beauty Evening at
Smith & de Luma Zurich
We recently attended a “beauty discovery evening” at the Zurich restaurant Smith and de Luma in Binz. It was organised by Verfora, which is the new name for the company from the Galencia group, whose beauty products include Lierac, Phyto and A-Derma.
We had an informal Apéro before the Verfora team, (pictured above), took us through a “speed dating” event to find out all about their latest products.
Lierac Lift Integral
The Lierac products we learned about and tested were from their new lifting range, called Lift Integral.
The range has been developed to provide a visible “lifting” effecting using a complex made up of Mahony extract, Purple tulip extract together with Hyalu-3 concentrate. The products are aimed at mature skin in order to boost elasticity and to improve the firmness of the skin.
As well as the lifting serum, they also have an eye serum, a sculpting day lift cream, a rich restructuring lift cream, a night restructuring lift cream and a lift mask. All of the Lift Integral products come in an attractive pale lilac packaging and have a really lovely, moisturising texture.
Phytomillesime Care for Coloured Hair
Phyto Paris’s new range of haircare products is called Phytomillesime. The line is aimed at improving the texture, condition and appearance of hair which has been coloured. If like me your hair has been suffering from the torments of lots of sun, highlights and colouring, you may be interested in trying out this new range. I’m certainly looking forward to trying it out and hopefully seeing a big improvement.
Phytomillesime products are 95% of vegetable origin, and in creating this range Phyto Paris has harnessed the protective and hydrating powers of nature. Aimed specifically at colour treated hair, not only do they care and protect coloured hair, but they also prevent the colour from fading.
Every time you wash your hair, a certain amount of colour leaches out. You just have to look at the water in the shower or basin to see this – and of course you can see this most clearly if you colour your hair red or dark brown. However, the Phytomillesime line helps retain the colour as long as possible, whilst at the same time improving the condition of your hair. One of the key new products to help you do this, is the Phytomillesime “Pre-Shampoo”, which you apply 10 minutes before washing your hair. Other products in the range are the Phytomillesime Shampoo, Phytomillesime Mask, Phytomillesime Concentrate conditioner and Phytomillesime Colour Protection Spray.
So for coloured hair needing an extra dose of TLC after the ravages of a hot sunny Summer, you may be interested in trying out the Phytomillesime range to help keep your colour looking good for longer.
A-Derma Primalba Skincare for Babies
The A-Derma product we learned about was called Primalba. Primalba is a new line of skin care which has been developed specifically for the care and protection of the delicate and fragile skin of babies.
The Primalba range includes a gentle cleansing gel, a gentle cleansing lotion, a gentle cocoon cream and a nappy change cream.
All the products from Lierace, Phyto and A-Derma are available to purchase in Switzerland.
