Product description
RevitalSummer is an intensive homecare treatment specifically designed to preserve skin wellness before, during and after sun exposure. It is composed of two vials, Pre-Sun and Post-Sun, made with ultra-performing functional actives of both plant and bio-technological origin. To ensure the freshness of the preparation, these active ingredients are to be mixed at first use in a special hydrogel to promote cell regeneration, protect cells and reduce micro-inflammation.
Claims & Benefits
The preparatory blend, Pre-sun, prepares the skin for tanning by stimulating melanin production while providing antioxidant and regenerating action. Post-sun, fixes the tan, reduces skin sensitivity, soothes the skin and repairs photo-induced cell damage. The combined action of the two vials makes the skin's complexion appear renewed and hydrated, with a glowing, even tan, and protected from blemishes due to photo-aging.
Technical details
The active ingredients in RevitalSummer include "BioCellular Activator", a plant-derived bio-technological liposomal solution consisting of a combination of five bio placental growth factors, amino acids and vitamins. It acts as a youth activator to stimulate cellular dynamism, strengthening the skin barrier and smoothing out visible wrinkles. The treatment starts with “Pre-Sun Blend” 15 days before sun exposure for 15 consecutive days to prepare the skin for UV exposure, thanks to "EnergyTan". This combination of Acetyl Tyrosine, Riboflavin and ATP, has an antioxidant and regenerating action, activates and stimulates melanin production, to achieve a faster, more intense and longer-lasting tan. The second vial, “Post-Sun Blend”, is used from the first day of sun exposure for 15 consecutive days, to set the tan, thanks to "SunCaptor", a pentapeptide that biologically activates and enhances melanin synthesis, capturing UV rays to increase skin pigmentation and strengthen the skin's defenses. At the same time, it reduces skin sensitivity and soothes the skin thanks to Zanthalene, an active derived from the fruit peels of Zanthoxylum Bungeanum. It is known for its soothing and calming properties and reduces skin sensitivity and itching sensations.

What sets your product apart and why is it innovative?
Rhea Cosmetics' philosophy of layering multiple products for an increased penetration and efficacy of the active ingredients also applies to the suncare range with products both with and without SPF that work in synergy to prepare and accompany the skin before, during and after sun exposure. The goal is to decrease UV-related risks and stresses and preserve the skin's youthfulness. The efficacy of the Rhea sun product range has been tested and validated by DDI - Women Dermatologists Italy, which has confirmed the efficacy of Rhea Sun in its dual protective value: Skin Health (inflammation, sun diseases) and Skin Aesthetics (photoaging, sun spots). RevitalSummer is an innovative product because it combines effective formulas, rich in active ingredients that can counteract oxidative stress and the resulting inflammation, with a sensory experience of use thanks to the on-the-moment blending of the formula. For example, among the most innovative actives in RevitalSummer is Deinococcus sp., the microorganism with the highest radiation resistance that has the ability to restructure UV-damaged skin cells and repair tissue damage caused by sun exposure.
How do you promote your product on multiple channels?
The online strategy for the launch of RevitalSummer included a B2C communication strategy, thanks to a collaboration with UGC 'User generated content', users who create content of different types: text, video, images, reviews, and post them in online sharing spaces, are the new trend in online marketing to convey transparency and gain the trust of consumers. UGC have 9.8 times more influence on their purchasing decisions than influencer marketing campaigns. The video posted created curiosity and interest in the community. Hashtags used: #veganskincare #healthyskin #skincaretips. RevitalSummer is featured on the Rhea website and e-commerce. The offline strategy is characterised by B2B communication with publications in sector magazines (e.g. Mabella) and initiatives for the beauty centre, such as dedicated marketing supports such as posters, window boards and displays to capture the attention of the customer. In addition, thanks to the new experiential sales method designed by Rhea: Skin Lab Experience, Revital Summer can be offered in a demonstration and information session, during which the customer can understand the needs of their skin. The goal is to move away from canonical sales dynamics to accompany the customer to a new and correct way of skincare before, during and after sun exposure. With SkinLab Experience, Rhea want to meet the needs of today's consumer who wants to have an immersive experience and get involved with emotions and sensations. This is the reason why the sale of personalized and appealing home cosmetics becomes a necessity for the Institute as a function of its growth in specialized and economic terms.

How does your product meet the evaluation criteria of its category?
RevitalSummer meets the evaluation criteria of the sun category because it is a product that should be used before, during and after sun exposure. It broadens the concept of sun protection, no longer conceived exclusively as protection with SPF to be used during exposure, but as a treatment to the overall skin, conceived in this broader sense sun protection is no longer limited to an exact moment, but the skin is prepared for exposure, and treated afterwards, thus limiting not only visible sun damage such as sunburn, but also long-term sun damage such as photo-aging, cellular damage, hyperpigmentation, and sunspots that can appear even after sun exposure. The design is also innovative because it is not the usual cream that must be applied and which therefore may seem superfluous, but vials to be mixed at the time of use in an anti-aging hydrogel, which give the product an almost pharmaceutical importance.
