“Our founder, Estée Lauder, invented the beauty business as we know it,” said Jane Hertzmark Hudis, group president, The Estée Lauder Companies. “So we asked ourselves, ‘If Estée was re-inventing the beauty business for Sephora today, what would she do?’ The answer is The Estée Edit.”
“The Estée Edit is a win for both Estée Lauder and the Sephora client. We anticipate that The Estée Edit’s mix of covetable trend-based makeup, instant-gratification skincare products, approachable price point, and millennial muses will receive a very positive reaction from our young and socially-engaged consumers,” said Artemis Patrick, senior vice president of merchandising, Sephora.
The Estée Edit is inspired by Estée’s famous quote, “Beauty is an Attitude,” and features 82 products – 72 makeup, 10 skincare – that offer instantly, visibly gorgeous skin and covetable color. The packaging features signature elements originally created by Estée herself but with a twist, resulting in silver and white fluted packaging with cobalt blue paint splatter graphics.

Merck (NYSE: MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, and the American Diabetes Association today issued a new challenge to the millions of Americans affected by type 2 diabetes as part of the program America’s Diabetes Challenge: Get to Your Goals. In 2015, award-winning artist Tim McGraw, celebrated actress S. Epatha Merkerson and chef Leticia Moreinos Schwartz each shared their personal connection to type 2 diabetes. This year, they’re calling on people to share their stories.
Living with diabetes isn’t easy, and that’s why America’s Diabetes Challenge encourages people with type 2 diabetes to work with their doctor to set and reach their A1C goal. The program will aim to identify the most common challenges patients submit and will offer tips to help address them. The program is also designed to help people learn if they’re at risk of low blood glucose, known as hypoglycemia, and how to help reduce that risk.
