Garnier Fructis & TerraCycle: Creating a Cleaner Greener World

As part of a six-city wide bus tour and beauty brigade, world-renowned haircare product company, Garnier Fructis stopped by Times Square in New York City to lend a green thumb. Inside the tour bus, shelves were stacked with bottles and samples of Pure Clean Garnier Fructis hair products to clean, style, and nourish air-polluted locks – an unfortunate downside to urban lifestyles.
The main goal of the tour/beauty brigade is to increase popular participation in saving the environment – and by default, the world – by pledging to collect recyclable items/used beauty product containers and shipping them to TerraCycle within two weeks to receive 2 cents per item that is donated towards any charity of choice. To get involved with this enviro-saving brigade, simply visit the Garnier Fructis Pure Clean Official Website and click on the Get Involved tab for the Cleaner Greener World Tour Beauty Brigade.
You can also have your personal commitment published publicly on Garnier Fructis’ Facebook page. Garnier Fructis and TerraCycle are diligently collaborating to raise awareness about the extra help our environment needs and get the public to actively participate in their earnest efforts to help save the world. With the ingenuity and help of TerraCycle, various post-beauty products (not limited to only Garnier Fructis product bottles) have been and are being converted into other items for everyday use, such as nootebooks, containters, baskets, or board slates that can be put into making a children’s playground. So, get all your old,empty bottles of shampoo and other beauty products together, put them into an old shoe box, label it, and ship it to TerraCycle for them to refashion into an enviro-friendly manner!

Garnier New Product Launch Event

I recently went to the Garnier Open House event to check out their latest line of product offerings, with most of them launching this month. The new hair care, styling, and skin care products each offer something new to the market, for example the Triple Nutrition hair care line includes olive, shea, and avocado oils to provide incredible moisture without weighing hair down. I was particularly interested in The Dryness Reversal Treatment, a three minute conditioner with crushed apricot seed that act as an exfoliant; I never would have thought about applying something of that nature to my hair, and will soon test out the products to see the results. Their new concept of anti-humidity hairsprays is something that rang a chord with me — depending on your hair type and styling requirements, you can choose a hairspray to particularly meet those needs. Although I’ve been pretty happy with my massive bottle of Tresemme, the Volumizing Anti-Humidity Hairspray certainly got my attenion (other options are Full Cotrol, Sleek & Shine, and Flexible Control).
Last, I spoke with dermatologist Dr. Neal Schultz about the lastest skin care offerings, including the Ultra-Lift Pro Deep Wrinkle Night Cream, and Skin Renew Awakening Face Massager Moisturizer with caffeine, Vitamin C, and lycopene. Dr. Schultz confided to me that caffeine is the next big thing in skin care, that produces a stimulating and energizing effect. The roller ball technology is pretty cool, but being the skeptic and germaphobe that I am, I had a quesiton for Dr. Schultz: “Does the facial roller trap bacteria or foster an environment of bacterial growth, due to rubbing the same thing over and over again on one’s face?” The pleasant Dr. Schultz wasn’t annoyed by my question, and said that indeed no, it actually wouldn’t cause any more bacteria than when you dip and redip your fingers into that bottle of moisturizer or night cream that you’ve been using. Good point; now I’ve got one more reason to wash my hands! Keep your eyes out for the products mentioned above, plus several more, hitting shelves this summer.
