Paraben free products

2008-05-14T10:57:32Z

Butyl, methyl, propyl and ethyl parabens are commonly found in the ingredients of skincare and shave products. Normally used to add colour and to reduce the effects of bacteria. Methylparaben is commonly found in anti-age products but a study carried out in Japan showed evidence that this type of paraben CAN cause premature aging when exposed to ultra-violet rays.......hhmmm. So, I am proud to say that 9 of my KOS.PRO skincare, style and shave products are paraben free. ;-)

Spread the word...

New year new start!

HAPPY NEW YEAR This message is to all MEN who can answer yes to the following question: Have you been getting sloshed everynight over the Christmas break? Have you turned into a roast potato or a yorkshire pudding over the Christmas break? Have you had a hangover in the last 2 weeks? Have you been out with the lads for the night, woke up in the morning and can't remember the night before? I am sure 90% of you reading this blog can answer YES to the above questions........ The alcohol, fat and sugar you have consumed over Christmas would have damaged the look and feel of your skin. KOS.PRO can help your skin to look and feel healthy. Bring your skin back to life in 4 easy steps: Step 1 - using the KOS.PRO Soap-free Face Wash will remove spot causing bacteria, oil and dirt from the surface on the skin. It's enriched with Aloe Vera and Vitamin E to leave your skin moisturised, feeling smooth and prepared for a closer shave. Step 2 - using the KOS.PRO Exfoliator will unclog pores of graese and debris, buff dead skin cells to prevent in-growing hairs. Being enriched with Aloe Vera and Vitamin E will leave your skin moisturised. Removing debris from the skins surface will allow the blade to shave closer. Step 3 -using the KOS.PRO Shave Serum, Shave Oil or the Shave Gel will protect your skin from razor burn and rashes, minimising painful nicks and cuts. Each shaving product contains Ceramide to condition the skin and restore it's natural protective barrier. Step 4 - using the KOS.PRO Moisturisers penetrate and hydrate all skin types. Rapidly absorbed Ceramide and Creatine help to condition and restore the skin. KOS.PRO can help repair the damage you may have caused to your skin over Christmas.

Watch it grow!

Well, what can I say! Having great responses from the pro hair salons/barbers, coupled with good sales in the first 2 months - I would class this as a successful launch for King of Shaves entering the Pro Industry.

Being a motivating crew at KMI, we decided to give the sales guys a chase to win a trip to Miami to watch the US Powerboat Championships in Key West Florida. This trip would be up for grabs for those who achieved the highest sales by end of first week in Nov.

With this trip in mind - all of the Aston & Fincher sales guys went all out to get the best sales.

The winners were the sales rep for Leicester and Notts Paul Spilling and the Northampton branch manager Paul Arestides - these guys did particularly well, selling 10 sales packs each in the first 14 days.

The trip to Miami was very exciting, watching the King of Shaves powerboat3 roar their way to winning a second championship, as they have already taken gold in the European P1 Championships.

As we watched from the harbour-side wall, we could see it was going to be close. But we could also see that the other boats in the same category were fitted with much bigger engines than the King of Shaves boat.

After a fierce fight for for the number one position, we were happy to settle for a very creditable second place.

Get the message? Well, in our opinion, the judges didn't.

I spent an enjoyable evening with Chris Kemp-Salt and some of my KMI team and interesting others at the annual IMA awards last night. Winning awards is always a tricky business, mix of spend, politics and the secret 'behind closed doors' discussions. Anyhow, a campaign for the Royal Navy called Get The Message won, but when we take a look at the statistics involved, maybe the judges didn't. By the way, 400 people 'engaging' with the King of Shaves brand at King of Defenders as I write this. Here Goes: Get the message by Glue London (huge budget involving bespoke footage shot by Royal Navy with jets, helicopters and aircraft carriers, plus big agency): - 200,000 visits. - 3.5 minutes view time. - 487 days total interaction time. - 40k opt-in registrations King of Defenders by Kempt (small budget involving clever use of our England football skipper designed for long term use, small agency eager to exceed client expectations): - 27,000,000 visits. - 4.7 minutes view time. - 95,265 days total interaction time. - 45k opt-in registrations Never mind Chris. Maybe the judges will get the message next year (bigger budget, for what I'm sure will be a bigger agency).

KOS PRO - Go Go Go!

2007-11-07T13:43:13Z

I'm pleased that our sales & development team from Aston & Fincher have signed up nearly 100 salons since launching KOS PRO under a month ago at Salon International, and full details of the KOS PRO stockists will be posted shortly on our website.
