Ad Campaign | ck one Colour Cosmetics Line

Calvin Klein has answered my prayers!! I’ve always said that Calvin Klein’s discontinued cosmetics line was the single most devastating thing in my life, why? Because I’ve never found a bronzer more perfect for me than ck One’s bronzer! It was all sorts of perfection.

Unveiled February 24, 2012, Calvin Klein, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of PVH Corp. [NYSE: PVH] and Coty Inc. the first worldwide advertising campaign introducing ck one color cosmetics, a full line-up of over 130 products that all capture the core ck one brand DNA – authentic, confident, and cool.
“With its fragrance roots, expanding into a color cosmetics line was a natural progression for the ck one brand,” said Tom Murry, President & Chief Executive Officer, Calvin Klein, Inc. “This latest extension embodies the energy and free spirit of ck one, offering fresh and unique beauty products that are ideal for today’s youthful, independent consumer.” “ck one has maintained its status as an iconic global brand since it first launched in 1994,” said Catherine Walsh, Senior Vice President of American Fragrances, Coty Prestige. “With the introduction of ck one color cosmetics we go beyond fragrance, addressing the consumer’s desire to define their individuality. The new campaign, combined with innovative products, continues the ck one legacy of authenticity and accessibility by connecting consumers with the brand in a modern and vibrant way.”

Editorial | Body Conscience Part I: Daria Werbowy & Lara Stone
I recently stumbled across this editorial by Mert & Marcus published in Love Magazine slightly over a year ago. I couldn’t resist sharing it on the blog for anyone (like myself) who missed out on its gutsy, ingenious nature first time around.
In the series, Love gets their cover stars to take it all off and open up about their bodies and insecurities. Canadian homegirl Daria Werbowy and Lara Stone model for the first installment. The shoot was styled by fashion editor Katie Grand.
The series’ byline says it all, “We asked eight of the most beautiful women in the world for their ages, their measurements, and their opinions on their own bodies.” These are secrets stars usually only take to the grave (or to their trusty plastic surgeon).
The editorial is revealing, honest and authentic- qualities often missing in the world of fashion. Hope you find these photos as beautiful and refreshing as I do!
