“ NUXE is enjoying big success in travel retail with double digit growth, and incredible innovation, including the move into the whole new TR hair category – what is happening for us which is simply huge” – says an enthused Omberline Forbin, NUXE Global Travel Retail Marketing Manager. Forbin, is pictured here (right) with Elodie Brunner, Head of Export and TR, who is presenting Nuxe Hair Prodigieux shampoo. NUXE’s venture into hair care has performed well in airports despite the fact that the category is a traditionally neglected beauty sector in travel retail. But Forbin says the indicators were always good as NUXE hair care is a top 10 bestseller in French domestic pharmacies where consumers appreciate the fermented pink camellia oil formula, and the non-use of silicones or sulphates. In other developments NUXE has also experienced the “very successful” launch of Nuxuriance ULTRA anti-aging creamwhich has shown to out-perform conventional retinol-based products – it has 97% natural origin ingredients and is vegan-friendly. Meanwhile, by synthesising its two classic versatile moisturisers, NUXE has created Huile Prodigieuse Or Florale, a new “shimmering” moisturiser featuring seven precious botanical oils, a development which will reinforce NUXE’s benchmark position as the second best-performing skincare product line in Lagardère.
