Luxury skincare brand Clarins just launched a six-month in-store program that offers complimentary make-up applications and photo shoots under a “celeb” experience. Consumers receive beauty tips, product samples, color touch-ups and can participate in a “celebrity moment” on a Clarins Red Carpet Runway that serves up a framed photo and VIP pass with beauty notes from the in-store beauty experts.
“We want to reach all customers,” Violet Lee, senior manager of retail development at Clarins, told Buzz. “Many people think of Clarins as skincare for the mature customer, but we’re really for everyone. Creating a fun and upbeat type of event will attract a younger consumer. We have products for them, too. The 10-foot red carpet and Clarins backdrop makes it feel like a celebrity award event.”
Events will take place at Nordstrom, Macy’s, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale’s, Barneys and Lord & Taylor stores in major cities including Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Miami, New York, San Francisco and Seattle and Puerto Rico. Agency: Red Carpet Runway, New York City

‘Do is a Don’t
Romana Singer went a hair too far for attention. The Real Housewife of NYC chopped off her long locks on Aug. 20 just before a Red Carpet Runway party at Tavern on the Green. “I wanted to shake things up,” she told host Jaizen Homiller. But just two days later, Ramona regretted the cit. “I’d never do it again,” she whined at the Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge at Bridgehampton’s Blue Star Jets Field. “No one recognizes me!”

Clarins Invites Consumers Nationwide to Get Red Carpet Ready
August 10, 2009 (New York, NY) -
Beginning this month, 140 department stores across the US will be hosting in-store events, where consumers are invited to stop in for their complimentary Clarins make-up application and Red Carpet Runway photo shoot. Participating department stores include Nordstroms, Macy’s, Saks, Bloomingdales, Barneys and Lord & Taylor throughout major cities including New York City, Atlanta, Miami, Dallas, Seattle, Boston, San Francisco and Puerto Rico. Consumers will receive beauty tips, product samples, color touch-ups and a celebrity moment on the Clarins Red Carpet Runway. Participants will receive a framed photo and a special VIP pass with beauty notes from a Clarins beauty expert.
Clarins Red Carpet Runway rolls out its first of many events at Plaza Las Americas August 14th, South Center Mall on August 21st and at the Houston Galleria on August 27th. Clarins specialists are expecting to take over 18,000 photos with The Red Carpet Runway backdrop. (Full event list available upon request, subject to change)
“Clarins is about connecting the beauty experience to the consumer. With the Red Carpet Runway events, we are able to not only have that connection, but to make it memorable,” comments Clarins Executive Violet Lee.
“People typically associate the red carpet with something they watch on TV, not something that they can experience themselves. Clarins was a perfect partner when it came to recreating that the feel and experience of the red carpet for their customers After receiving beauty tips and a touch up, for the first time, clients can experience walking down an actual red carpet, getting their picture taken and receiving the photo of their new look just like their favorite celebrity. Red Carpet glamour falls in line with the cosmetic industry.” comments Doug Melville, founder of The Red Carpet Runway.

About Clarins:
Clarins, a European leader in luxury skincare for over 50 years, was founded by Jacques Courtin-Clarins, a young physical therapist who treated circulatory problems through massage. Clarins started off with a few simple botanical body oils which ballooned into one of the world’s foremost beauty companies, spanning a presence in over 150 countries. In 1954, Jacques Courtin-Clarins opened the first Clarins Institute de Beauté in Paris, France, where he developed treatments and products using natural botanical ingredients for the face and body. The first beauty company to employ 100 percent pure plant extracts, Clarins used only the best botanicals to complement the appealing textures and scents that made his luxurious products a pleasure to apply. Still a family-run business, Jacques’ sons, Dr. Olivier Courtin-Clarins and Christian Courtin-Clarins, continue on in the Clarins tradition today. For more information please visit www.clarins.com.

2008 marked one of the most momentous races for the U.S. Presidency, one fueled by intense passion and determination. Use the suggestions below to celebrate President-Elect Barack Obama’s historic victory by hosting an inaugural ball at your home!
Décor & Tabletop suggestions
Pave the entry to your home with remnant red carpet purchased from your local carpet store, or rent a red carpet from Red Carpet Runway.
As guests enter, have a photographer snap a photo of them next to a life-sized cut-out of President-Elect Barack Obama. This will make a fun party favor. Place photos in glossy, quality stock paper photo frame imprinted with the host’s name and the date of the party (e.g. Debbie’s Inaugural Ball, Jan 18, 2009).

Some people like to watch celebrities walk the paparazzi gauntlet at award shows like Sunday night’s Academy Awards. Other people like to be the ones walking the red carpet.
For that latter group, a Connecticut-based company called Red Carpet Runway has come up with a customized red carpet and backdrop, which “anyone can create, design and order online.” They come in three packages ($199 to $1,200) for different sized corporate or private affairs, including, of course, award-show viewing parties. In a rush? Ready-made “Rug in a Bag” ($99) ordered before 2 p.m. EST ships the same day and can be delivered “as quickly as” customers require, company co-owner Bill Sidarweck says.
