Introducing Michal Morrison Inc., a revolutionary skincare company backed by stem cell science

Introducing the launch of Michal Morrison Inc., a new, science-first skincare company poised to revolutionize the beauty industry. With its first hero product launch, Genesis βSTEM6™ Molecular Serum, Michal Morrison Inc. will define and lead a new category of biomimetic skincare technology with its proven, proprietary, and patent-pending βSTEM6 molecule.

This biotech breakthrough has a mechanism of action validated by 25 years of research in stem cell science and regenerative medicine from the laboratory of Dr. Michael Kahn. The βSTEM6 molecule will be exclusively available in Michal Morrison products. The company was founded by Austin-based entrepreneur Michal Ann Morrison, who previously survived a Traumatic Brain Injury in 2016 and has since become a passionate advocate for people with disabilities. Michal’s experience became her inspiration to build a company dedicated to science, health, and the well-being of our communities.

βSTEM6 is a nextgen, patent-pending ‘metamolecule™’ that restores the self-rejuvenating power of our skin that has diminished over time. The result of over two decades of research in regenerative medicine and recent advances in stem cell science, βSTEM6 uses your biology’s inherent potential to extend cell longevity. As the first and only bioserum with βSTEM6, this molecular superpower works with the skin’s chemistry to awaken the millions of cells responsible for healthy-looking skin.

A formal and independent clinical study was conducted by one of the country’s preeminent board-certified dermatologists and President of Dermatology Consulting Services, PLLC, Dr. Zoe Draelos, M.D. The study demonstrated dramatic improvements in the multiple signs of skin aging such as facial lines, wrinkles, loss of elasticity and uneven pigmentation. Following the eight-week study:

  • 92% agreed skin texture is smoother and more refined
  • 80% agreed skin looks firmer and lifted
  • 80% agreed skin looks significantly clearer
  • 80% agreed skin looks more luminous and radiant
  • 80% agreed skin looks healthier and more youthful

Founder Michal Ann Morrison experienced years of frustration testing countless skincare products that never delivered the results they promised. Driven by her passion for science and entrepreneurial spirit, she began developing her own brand with a singular purpose: to revolutionize the beauty industry by developing science-first, performance-driven skincare with proprietary technology that delivers proven results.

The inspiration for the development of the company’s proprietary and patent-pending intellectual property, the βSTEM6 molecule, was Michal’s association with Dr. Fuqiang Ruan, an innovative scientist with a doctorate in Synthetic Organic Chemistry who had previously worked in Dr. Kahn’s laboratory. Dr. Michael Kahn is currently Professor of Cancer Biology and Molecular Medicine at the Beckman Research Institute, City of Hope.

The Genesis βSTEM6 Molecular Serum is available on michalmorrison.com for $175 in a premium recyclable glass bottle. The Genesis βSTEM6 Molecular Serum is also available for $140 through a 60-day replenishment program.

About Timeline

Timeline is a cellular health brand developed by the life sciences company, Amazentis. The company was founded on the belief that uncompromising research can unlock a new class of health backed by cutting-edge science. As scientists, the team knows that physical decline from aging can’t be stopped. However, through its groundbreaking research, Timeline is committed to developing products designed to help reduce the impact of time on health, from nutrition to skin and beyond.

About Mitopure®

Mitopure® is a highly pure form of Urolithin A, a post-biotic that is produced by gut bacteria after eating certain foods, such as pomegranates, though only 30% of people in the world get enough of this specialized nutrient from food alone. When ingested, Mitopure® has been shown to improve mitochondrial function by stimulating mitophagy, a process by which aging and damaged mitochondria are cleared from the cell, making way for healthy mitochondria to grow. Mitopure® has been favorably reviewed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and deemed safe following a GRAS (generally recognized as safe) filing. Amazentis has previously published its research on Mitopure® Urolithin A in top peer-reviewed scientific journals such as Nature Medicine (doi:10.1038/nm.4132) and Nature Metabolism (doi: 10.1038/s42255-019-0073-4).

Hibernicis’ Skin and Body-Care Are Powered by the Irish Coast of Connemara

Hibernicis is an up-and-coming unisex skin and body-care brand dedicated to soothing and replenishing nutrients to both the body and mind. Founded by industry-veteran Catherine Logue in her homeland, Ireland, the brand also acts as an homage to the region’s cultural and historical heritage.

Inspired by Connemara, situated on the west coast of Ireland, the place is brimmed with an abundance of natural resources, which the brand obtains its ingredients from. Speaking on the conceptualization of the brand, Logue explains, “Hibernicis is an ode to Ireland, but developed to cater to all skin tones, types, and genders around the globe”.

The founder elaborates that “For me Ireland is an incredibly beautiful land with a fascinating and complex history and so I started the journey of developing a range which reflects how I feel about Ireland”. Hibernicis also lends its name from Latin, which translates to ‘from Ireland’, while its product offerings are all named in Gaelic.

Hibernicis currently offers five essential yet all-inclusive products, comprising of the Glan Bath + Shower Gel, Úr Exfoliating Gel, Athlíon Body Lotion, Síoda Body Serum, and Cara Hand Cream. Prices range from $39 – $95 USD, each featuring a skin-friendly and safe-to-use formulation infused with 95% naturally derived ingredients. Its star ingredient is seaweed extracts, a powerful skin-detoxifying antioxidant, which is also packed with vitamins K, B, A, and E for soothing, hydrating, and repairing effects.

A product that has been spotlighted by Logue is the Síoda Body Serum. The founder noted that the serum’s lightweight yet refreshing texture is inspired by her second home, Hong Kong, and its subtropical climate. As heavy moisturizers are not suitable for the city’s hot and humid air, Hibernicis’ quick-absorbent alternative is designed to hydrate skin on a cellular level without leaving a sticky-after-feel, complete with a therapeutic scent of jasmine and neroli.

Hibernicis Úr Exfoliating Gel

Úr means new in Irish, so in the spirit of renewal – introducing Úr Exfoliating Gel.

We recommend massaging Úr Exfoliating Gel uniquely designed exfoliator into damp skin before showering or bathing. This helps you enjoy the energising benefits of the experience before proceeding with your cleansing routine. The addition of peppermint oil and spearmint helps to stimulate circulation, beat fatigue, and invigorate your skin.

Since Hibernicis’ exfoliating gel is made with natural exfoliating ingredients, by using Úr you’re not only helping your skin – you’re also helping to protect our oceans and seas, and all of their natural resources, from dangerous microplastics.

Hibernicis Úr Exfoliating Gel contains a blend of seven types of seaweed, and is an effective, uplifting way to achieve smooth and refined skin.

Hibernicis Glan Bath and Shower Gel

Introducing Glan Bath and Shower Gel. Glan aptly means ‘clean’ in Irish.

Glan is our lightly scented, low foaming Bath and Shower Gel, designed to gently cleanse the skin without stripping it of its naturally occurring oils. With a blend of seven seaweed extracts containing anti-oxidant and moisturising properties, it helps detoxify, clear and tone the skin.

Hibernicis Glan Bath and Shower Gel is a refreshing, effective yet gentle cleansing gel.

Hibernicis Síoda Body Serum

Introducing Síoda Body Serum, a silky concoction that soothes and defends against moisture loss.

Síoda, pronounced SHE-o-da, means silk in Irish. Known for its soft, smooth texture, its elasticity and pleasing sheen, silk has always been an aspirational fabric. We wanted to create a product that would give your skin that luxurious feel, and Síoda Body Serum aims to do just that. It contains sodium hyaluronate, which penetrates deeply into the skin and acts as a water binding agent, protecting you from moisture loss. Its blend of five types of seaweed acts as an antioxidant, helping to detoxify, clear and tone the skin.

Hibernicis Síoda Body Serum will give you a lush yet light moisturising experience, supported by fragrant essential oils of jasmine and neroli.

Hibernicis Athlíon Body Lotion

In Irish, Athlíon means to replenish.

Pronounced ATH-le-ON, Hibernicis Athlíon Body Lotion is quickly absorbed, for a long lasting and oil-free finish. Containing our signature blend of seven types of seaweed, as well as sodium hyaluronate, Athlíon balances the skin while keeping the moisture locked in.

Its formula is rich in antioxidants and anti-aging properties, and is supported by essential oils of geranium, ylang ylang and sandalwood.

Hibernicis Cara Hand Cream

Introducing Cara Hand Cream – in Irish, ‘Cara’ is a friend, someone to care for and cherish.

Cara is both nourishing and easy to apply, with a smooth, oil-free finish. A blend of 7 seaweed extracts, rich in antioxidants and anti-aging properties, help heal, protect and maintain water balance in the skin. Supported with an abundance of nourishing, natural oil extracts, vitamin E and essential oils, Cara will become your best friend… carry her everywhere.

JAMESPLUMB Studio Casts Aēsop’s Cambridge Store in Calm Elegance

Aesop has reunited with James Russell and Hannah Plumb’s creative studio, JAMESPLUMB, to design its Cambridge store. Emitting a sense of calm elegance, the new store marks the third time the two entities have worked together.

Created with longstanding collaborators James Russell and Hannah Plumb, Aesop Cambridge is an artefact of the surrounding water and land. Proximity to academic and archival collections provided further inspiration – the store is a place to leaf through books in quiet comfort, enveloped in botanical textures and aromas.

After spending time on-site and exploring the location’s context and feel, James and Hannah presented many insightful ideas, along with a wealth of poems, images and inspirations. Notably, they engaged with Felicity Irons and her bulrush practice, which became a core element of our Cambridge space. We then worked with JAMESPLUMB in constant dialogue to compose, juxtapose, and collage ideas. The result was what feels like the essence of the city and a special place for Aesop to host customers. Marianne Lardilleux, Aēsop’s global head of store design

Like the binding of an antique book, the shopfront is the hue of well-worn leather. Using ancient and pioneering techniques, local plant matter is the interior’s primary material. 

What stands out about the new location’s style is that the South-London-based creative studio was able to keep the aged architectural elements while also casting the space in a modern light. At first glance, everyone will notice the exterior’s rich worn leather hue that is complimented by a collection of pelargoniums that sit pristinely in the store’s window beneath the subtle Aēsop branding. Once inside, the store offers up a relaxing atmosphere with natural shades inspired by Bulrush.

Oversized shelves are made from English freshwater bulrush harvested and woven by Felicity Irons and her team at Rush Matters, who have brought this archaic and yet renewable practice into the twenty-first century. The bulrush is hand-cut from long punts on the River Great Ouse in Cambridgeshire, then air-dried and sun-bleached before being braided into furniture at the nearby workshop.

Other shelves are formed from hemp – grown just twenty miles from Cambridge – pressed with resin. This warm, dense, tactile material is also inlaid into cabinetry, recalling the burnished surfaces of old writing desks. Underfoot, nineteenth-century floorboards are polished with two hundred years of footfall.

Amidst the serene shades and elevated rushes, is the array of Aēsop’s products, which stands tall on hemp shelving with its popular minimal yet enticing design style. Like some of Aēsop’s other locations, the new Cambridge store extends the brand’s cadence of crafting elevated yet tranquil shopping experiences. Come into the beautiful world of Aesop.

DefenAge Skincare Announces Men’s Skin Provision System Specifically Formulated for Men

Products of American company DefenAge, founded in 2014 by a team of regenerative medicine experts whose anti-aging discovery became the heart and soul of its formulas, are widely recommended by dermatologists as a high-performing, anti-aging cosmetic skincare for visible skin rejuvenation and as a safe alternative for retinol. Today the manufacturer and distributor of the revolutionary, evidence-based, anti-aging products, launches its first skincare system developed for men.

Evolved from the DefenAge Men’s Skincare Kit, the brand’s highly successful and popular skincare set for men, the new Men’s Skin Provision is further tailored directly to men’s unique needs and expectations for skincare products.

The Next Generation of Men’s Skincare

The Men’s Skin Provision set is centered around the regenerative power of DefenAge’s proprietary Defensin-molecules, which naturally refresh and renew skin (US Patent No. 11,491,096). This scientifically-proven technology is an effective solution for daily skin maintenance, as it promotes healthy skin that looks fresh, energized, and young.

The simple-to-use two-step system contains a face cleanser and moisturizer. Through an innovative formulation, DefenAge discovered a way to make the new moisturizer, 24/7 Barrier Balance Cream – Men’s Formula, just as effective as DefenAge’s award-winning, clinically proven multi-step system, cutting down on time and steps and creating a more simple and efficient system for men. Formulated for men, the innovative moisturizer received an advanced inflammation-controlling system for smoothing and calming, as well as an upgraded super-charged moisturization complex. It also contains barrier protection ingredients, antioxidants, vitamins, and vital nutrients for skin.

We conducted significant market research about what is most important to our male-identifying customers and heard what they had to say about our Men’s Skincare Kit. Overwhelmingly, we found that men seek simplicity, value, and efficiency in their skincare. We discovered a way to deliver this without compromising efficacy.

Nikolay Turovets, DefenAge’s CEO

The Men’s Skin Provision is priced below $100 for a month’s supply of cleanser and moisturizer.

Additionally, DefenAge developed a Men’s Skin Booster to jump start the skin for high-performance use once or twice a year. This system contains a full size DefenAge 1-Step-Mult-Cleanse and 24/7 Barrier Balance Cream – Men’s Formula, plus a ‘booster’ of the Defensins-packed 8-in-1 BioSerum and exfoliating 2-Minute Reveal Masque to optimize skin regeneration and cell turnover. The Men’s Skin Booster concept was developed after multi-year observations and clinical studies proved that this extra dose of Defensin-molecules promotes new skin, ‘boosting’ the skin to repopulate with fresh cells when done at least annually. This combination produces outstanding benefits for the look and appearance of the skin and overall visible skin health.

Find the Men’s Skincare Provision on defenage.com for a $98 month supply of cleanser and moisturizer. The Men’s Skin Booster retails for $134. The products will also be available in a professional formulation (Pro Exclusive Platinum Edition) through select dermatology and plastic surgeon offices, and med spas.

Kiehl’s New Retinol Fast Release Wrinkle-Reducing Night Serum Accelerates Skin Renewal With Visible Results

For the consumer seeking a quick, visible reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, and deep wrinkles, Kiehl’s introduces new Retinol Fast Release Wrinkle-Reducing Night Serum—a clinically tested formula that penetrates up to 15 surface layers deep to begin accelerating skin surface turnover, visibly improving skin’s appearance in as early as 5 days.

Regarded by dermatologists as one of the most researched and highly efficacious anti-aging ingredients in skincare, retinol is widely recognized for its proven ability to help visibly diminish wrinkles and firm skin’s appearance.  Unlike many over-the-counter retinol formulations, which can take several weeks or even months to start seeing improvements, Kiehl’s newest skincare innovation prioritizes speedy results. The cutting-edge ‘fast-release’ delivery system deposits a high concentration of pure retinol powder into the ultra-lightweight serum base creating a fast acting 0.3% pure retinol serum that penetrates up to 15 skin surface layers. This process accelerates skin renewal and rapidly brings fresh new skin cells to the surface for a more revitalized, youthful-looking complexion.

In a clinical product study, skin showed visible improvement in the appearance of fine lines in just 5 days, as well as a reduction in wrinkles, and refined texture after two weeks of nightly use. In an 8-week consumer perception study, 100% of participants visibly demonstrated a reduction in wrinkles, including deep-set and stubborn wrinkles.

Kiehl’s newest retinol advancement comes uniquely packaged in a dual-sided component that allows the consumer to freshly activate their formula by releasing a pure retinol powder capsule into an ultra-lightweight serum base. To activate, the bottom bottle cap is replaced with a pure retinol capsule which is pressed down to release the powder into the serum. Once vigorously shaken to mix, the original cap is replaced onto the bottle.

With this packaging and formula release method, retinol is preserved and protected from degradation to ensure optimal potency and efficacy from the very first use. This enables the formula to be rapidly delivered into the skin and accelerate skin surface renewal and in turn, expedites visible results.

Dr. Nancy Ilaya, PhD, Kiehl’s Global Scientific Director

Kiehl’s Retinol Fast Release Wrinkle-Reducing Night Serum is recommended for nightly use on skin that is already acclimated to retinol. Apply after cleansing and follow with a moisturizer. To help protect visible results, apply sunscreen during the day.

Kiehl’s Retinol Fast Release Wrinkle-Reducing Night Serum (28ml) is available at Kiehls Boutiques, selected stores worldwide, and online. Come into the beautiful world of Kiehl’s.

Pharrell’s Humanrace Ventures Into Suncare

Pharrell Williams is making his first foray into sun care. His product company Humanrace will debut two refillable SPF 30 products, which are both made from mineral-based formulations. The expansion continues Humanrace’s commitment to formulas for all skin types.

This venture has been two years in the making, and with it, Humanrace seeks to tackle the misconception that sunscreen is not necessary for people of color and those with deeper skin tones.

Our Earth’s ozone layer naturally protects us from harmful UV radiation from the sun, but we still need to protect ourselves daily from the UV rays that get through. We believe there is room under the sun for everyone, and we all need to be wearing sunscreen daily.

Pharrell Williams, singer

Developed with the help of Pharrell’s personal dermatologist of 20 years, Dr. Elena Jones, the new line emphasizes that everyone needs to protect themselves from the sun, no matter their skin color.

The myth that dark skin can go without sunscreen originates from the fact that melanin — the substance that produces pigment in the skin, eyes and hair — helps absorb harmful UV rays. Basically: the darker your skin is, the less likely you are to get sunburned. Despite melanin’s protective properties, melanated skin is still susceptible to the effects of sun damage, including dark spots, wrinkles, and skin cancer.

The biggest misconception is that deeper skin tones don’t need sunscreen, but no matter what color your skin is, all skin tones need a daily sunscreen, rain or shine. I have patients every day asking what they should be doing to care for their skin, the easiest thing to do is start wearing sunscreen daily.

Dr. Elena Jones, dermatologist

Because there’s less awareness surrounding the necessity of sunscreen for dark-skinned people, Black patients are more likely to be diagnosed with skin cancer at a later stage, resulting in a worse prognosis. In fact, a study conducted by the CDC showed that the five-year- melanoma survival rate among Black folks was 66.2 percent, compared with 90.1 percent for white people.

The launch consists of Ozone Face Protection Daily Moisturizer and Ozone Body Protection Cream, they work in tandem to protect and hydrate your skin from head to toe. Vegan, fragrance-free, with PA ++++ protection, the Ozone Protection Set is the final step in your routine, rain or shine.

Humanrace Ozone Face Protection Daily Moisturizer

Created for daily use, the Ozone Face Protection Daily Moisturizer leads the charge. A mineral SPF 30 made with effective ingredients for your skin. Formulated with non-nano zinc oxide and the company’s signature snow mushroom extract and blue light protection for a sheer, white cast free finish for hydrated, protected skin.

Humanrace Ozone Body Protection Cream

Next up is the water-resistant (40 min) Ozone Body Protection Cream, a mineral SPF 30 without the white cast. This formula dual-functions as a hydrating body cream. Squalane, jojoba seed oil and aloe work with our signature snow mushroom extract to hydrate the skin.

Refillable

The new refillable products come in bold orange packaging crafted from 50% post-consumer recycled landfill plastic, and consumers will be able to refill their sun care empties at a discounted price. The body cream and face moisturizer will each retail for $58 and $52, respectively, or consumers can buy the Ozone Protection Set, which includes both products, for $94.

The Humanrace Suncare line will officially launch for U.S. and European consumers on the brand’s website on July 14, they will be available before then exclusively for attendees of the musician’s music festival, ‘Something in the Water’, taking place in Washington, D.C., on Juneteenth weekend, June 17 to 19, and to Humanrace subscribers. 

Considering Pharrell’s shockingly luminous skin, you’ll want to heed his advice: sunscreen, always! Come into the beautiful world of Humanrace.

Lush Cosmetics Releases Gay is OK Soap to Support Equality Florida

With the alarming ‘Don’t Say Gay’ law coming into effect in Florida, campaigning company, Lush Cosmetics jumped into action releasing a limited-edition Gay is OK Soap to support Equality Florida, the largest civil rights organization dedicated to securing full equality for Florida’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) community.

Signed into law by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, the ‘Don’t Say Gay’ law limits or prohibits classroom instruction on LGBTQ issues in schools across the state. Lush’s twelve Florida shops from Miami to Destin will participate in the campaign standing in solidarity with LGBTQ youth, their families, and educators across the state who will be harmed by this outrageous law.

The gold and sparkly soap with an important message is now available in Florida stores and online and 100% of the purchase price of the soap (minus the taxes) aims to raise $50,000 for Equality Florida’s defense fund to support those impacted by the new legislation.

“Young LGBTQ people and their families are facing a political onslaught aimed at stigmatizing and erasing them. This toxic climate will make schools less safe for the youth that need our support most. It is vital that the businesses that uplift values of diversity and inclusion speak up at a time when their employees, customers and the broader community are under attack. Each of us is called to the fight to ensure every student is protected and every family is respected”, said Nadine Smith, Executive Director, Equality Florida.

At Lush, we believe the state has a responsibility to provide a safe and inclusive learning environment for all children and the Don’t Say Gay legislation does just the opposite. At a time when youth need our support the most, they and those that love them are being targeted. We are proud to stand with Equality Florida’s work to support the queer community at this critical and uncertain time. 

Carleen Pickard, Ethical Campaigner, Lush Cosmetics.

In addition to the financial support, Lush is encouraging customers to learn more about Equality Florida, which is part of a lawsuit against the State of Florida in opposition to the Don’t Say Gay law, and their Free To Say Gay campaign.

Lush has a long history of supporting the queer community, including hosting campaigns in support of marriage equality, transgender rights, The Equality Act and more. Through the sale of the Charity Pot Hand and Body Lotion, Lush North America has been able to donate $2.2M to 115 queer groups working on the frontlines of change. An additional $750,000 has been raised through in-store campaigns such as the one taking place across Florida this week, to 126 organizations fighting for equality and queer rights.

Perricone MD Introduces Vitamin C Ester CCC + Ferulic Brightening Under-Eye Cream

Perricone MD, rooted in breakthrough, science-backed skincare solutions, has announced the newest addition to its leading Vitamin C Ester collection, the Vitamin C Ester CCC + Ferulic Brightening Under-Eye Cream. This supercharged formula dramatically reduces the three types of under-eye discoloration: brown, blue and red.

With a biomimetic oat protein to visibly reduce redness triggered by allergies and inflammation, it leaves the delicate eye area feeling calmed and comforted. This breakthrough under-eye cream promotes a firmer, brighter and more radiant appearance.

“We had tremendous success with the launch of our Vitamin C Ester CCC + Ferulic Brightening Complex 20%, which inspired us to innovate in other segments”, states Chief Marketing Officer, Robert Koerner. “The Vitamin C Ester CCC + Ferulic Brightening Under-Eye Cream is the ideal complementary product to the face serum using a multitude of powerful ingredients to deliver proven and effective results against one of the most prominent eye concerns”.

The results speak for themselves: In a consumer study of 109 women after 28 days, 89% saw firmer-looking skin, 87% saw brighter, more radiant skin and 87% saw improvement in the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

The Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester CCC + Ferulic Brightening Under-Eye Cream (15 ml / 0.5 US fl. oz. – $72) is now available on their website, Macys.com, NeimanMarcus.com, Nordstrom.com, and Bloomingdales.com, and selected stores worldwide. Come into the beautiful world of PerriconeMD.
