Up & Coming Skin Care CompanieS
“With one First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream sold every
minute, I’d say that FAB is a true cult-favorite,” said Gordon.
Allure magazine crowned FAB’s Skin Rescue Purifying Mask
with Red Clay as the“Best Mask, Oily Skin.” And, last but not
least, Selena Gomez recently raved about Eye Duty, calling it“the
bomb” for her dark circles.
What’s Next: A new year brings an aggressive new product
launch schedule to continue to address the needs of multiple and
varied skin types. Said Gordon, “Our rescue mission: to provide
easy to use, effective, feel good solutions for universal skin chal-
lenges, guides all new product development. It is truly an exciting
time, because the line has lots of room to grow in order to meet
that objective.”
From an international perspective, 2015 should be a huge
year for FAB. The brand is launching in Taiwan and China, the
latter of which took three years to achieve.

medication preferences, and use any digital camera, webcam or
smartphone to upload photos of their face from several angles. Finally,

prescriptions will be sent directly to their preferred pharmacy.
