Golden glow

If you thought that the ancient Indian beauty concepts were only your grandmother’s concern, you might be in for a big surprise. The Herbal cosmetics market, not just in India but the world over, is witnessing a revolution. JR Herbals Care India Ltd, the manufacturers of Jovees, are part of this revolution. Manufactured through the state-of-the-art-technology, with international standards, Jovees was launched in 2004. The company has done extensive research in bringing out a revolution in skin care by combining the power of science and the power of herbs. Jovees has recently launched a new 24 Carat Gold cream, which is a blend of pure gold and natural herbs.
The power of herbs with the presence of pure gold helps to re-invigorate the skin in 21 days.

Mineral enrichment

Vichy Laboratoires, the dermocosmetic brand in European pharmacies, have
introduced a new hydrating range that not only moisturises but also strengthens the skin. The new range called Aqualia Thermal promises hydration through micro-circulation that pushes the skin’s water up towards the epidermis. Thus, saturated with water and minerals, the epidermis functions perfectly. All of its vital functions are safeguarded. Stress, pollution and climate variation can accelerate water evaporation on the skin’s surface.

When skin lacks water and minerals, it can renew  itself less quickly. The range comprises two highly sensorial hydrating formulae — a light fortifying version at Rs 990 for 40 ml and a concentrated version at Rs 1,290 for 30 ml.

Luxury redefined

Immens Clothing Co, Bangalore have launched Staples, their new brand of luxury shirts. The shirts are made of the finest fabric and also a small range of comfort blends to give that extra luxury. Every Staples shirt is a piece of craft on its own with an uncompromising quality control -- from fabric weaving, selection of fabric to stitching.  Staples is launching its autumn-winter collections in the name of Mapelites. The designs for this collection of shirts is inspired by an array of natural colours of the Maple tree. Staples is also launching its prestigious party-pro-slim party wear collection - Bash, a collection of party wear shirts. Staples offers an exhaustive range of shirts in more than 300 designs - in stripes, checks and plain colours and adds 100 designs every month.


Peerless precision

The partnership between Jaeger-LeCoultre and Aston Martin was headlined by a watchmaking revolution unveiled in 2006. This ingenious mechanism makes it possible to start, stop and reset the chronograph simply by pressing on the sapphire crystal of the watch case. The AMVOX2 Chronograph DBS effectively combines high-tech sports engineering with exceptional horology. The recently developed Chronograph Calibre 751E offers unique user friendliness.

All the characteristics of this model reveal its noble origins: the distinctive 270 degree sweep of the black dial resembling that of dashboard counters, the luminescent numerals, and a whole host of details that could only have been devised by designers truly in love with fine Aston Martin cars. The watches combine extraordinary mechanical innovation with the qualities of reliability, sturdiness, longevity and precision that are the hallmarks of all Jaeger LeCoultre mechanisms.

The Limited series in grade 5 titanium is priced at Rs 7,11,100 and the Limited series in 18-carat pink gold is priced at Rs 12,23,800.
