Leading Beauty Retailer Credo Beauty Debuts Private Label Skincare Line: Credo Skincare

Credo Beauty

Credo, the specialty clean beauty retail pioneer, is proud to announce the launch of its own eponymous skincare line, Credo Skincare. The specialty retailer has raised the bar introducing a benefit-driven collection of skincare products focused on the #1 skin concern gathered from clients – hydration – while continuing to challenge and elevate standards for clean and sustainable products and packaging. A cohesive easy to navigate cleanser and moisturizer system meets wanted gold standards. A decade ago, Credo disrupted an underregulated industry as a catalyst for positive change spurring a tidal wave of conscientious product and packaging innovation. Now after accruing 10 years of customer feedback, experience, and data Credo Skincare was developed according to what they found matters most. Ultimately hydration was the stand-out concern for clients. And through in-depth analysis, Credo determined the top ingredient and search terms according to what customers want from their products to deliver that and more. Through their access to the best in business partners, they created results-driven formulas packed with clinically proven actives and sustainably- minded packaging - every aspect of Credo Skincare is transparent and powerfully effective. Credo Skincare’s first collection is comprised of two cleansers ($44 each) and four moisturizers ($64 each) that service skin conditions surrounding primary concerns - dry skin, sensitivity and redness, dullness, and aging - by nourishing the skin and protecting its microbiome through today’s most powerful active combinations. Their formulations are based on key ingredient search terms and skincare concerns. As well, each product contains the transformative power of upcycled vetiver root extract, ethically harvested by a local cooperative in Haiti. Vetiver root is an antioxidant-loaded, potent wonder grass that supports the protection of the skin’s barrier for a vibrant skin tone and a nourished complexion while improving skin texture and reducing the appearance of pores and wrinkles. Credo Skincare’s goals are to provide an easy two step, effective regimen for healthy, hydrated skin that makes customers look and feel their best. Clinicals have proven 27% improvement in hydration after 24 hours, 31% improvement in hydration instantly, and an improvement in the skin barrier function instantly and after 24 hours. ● Deep Thirst Hydrating Cleanser ($44): A transformative formula to deeply cleanse while retaining moisture. ● True Timeout Calming Cleanser ($44): Designed to soothe and calm sensitive skin. ● Deep Thirst Hydrating Moisturizer ($64): Provides intense hydration with lasting effects. ● True Timeout Calming Moisturizer ($64): Helps alleviate sensitivity and redness. ● Radiance Rising Brightening Moisturizer ($64): Brightens dull skin and enhances radiance. ● Rewinder Anti-Aging Moisturizer ($64): Reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Beyond that as a retailer, Credo Beauty continues to drive the packaging and social standards that are the hallmarks of tomorrow. Every pump and cap in the Credo Skincare collection is comprised of a first-of-its kind PCR resin, including beauty waste packaging collected in Credo Beauty stores nationwide through Pact Collective, the non-profit Credo Beauty co-founded to divert beauty packaging from landfills. ● The Credo pump was created with Pact’s NewMatter material, a mixture of hard-to-recycle material or landfill and ocean-bound plastic. ● The first run of NewMatter pumps eliminated the need for 500 kg of virgin plastic (500 kg of recycled plastic used is equivalent to 11 cubic meters of landfill space or ~2,900 gallons of space!) ● Every 38 pumps eliminate one pound of material going to the landfill or ocean. “The benefit of listening to 10 years of customers' desires and skin concerns compelled us to create this line. Years of data drove the ingredient compositions of these products so that we could exceed our customers’ expectations for efficacy. Our Credo Clean Standard is already rigorous and difficult to attain but we wanted to challenge ourselves with how our own brand could take clean innovation to new heights from full disclosure of fragrance ingredients and packaging innovation to exceeding the minimum requirements to check certain boxes, Credo Skincare raises the bar on what is possible and what can become the future baseline,” says Co-Founder and CEO Annie Jackson. Availability: Credo Skincare will be available for purchase starting September 12, 2024, at all Credo brick and mortar store locations and on www.credobeauty.com. Media Contact: press@credobeauty.com About Credo Beauty: Credo Beauty offers today’s largest clean and sustainably minded beauty assortment in North America, across color, skincare, haircare and fragrance, partnering with over 120 leading brands, such as Westman Atelier, ILIA, OSEA, True Botanicals and LolaVie.

Top U.S. Sportsbooks Lost Out on $160.7 Million in Handle Last NFL Season, According to Latest Report from Sports Odds Intelligence Firm Bettormetrics

Bettormetrics

Bettormetrics, a sports odds intelligence firm providing competitive sports odds data and insight to the sports betting industry, released their latest report on the 2023-2024 NFL season today. The analysis found four out of the five top sportsbooks in the U.S. potentially lost over $160.7 million of revenue last NFL season due to extended suspension times and poor pricing strategies. Bettormetrics’ analysis of last season’s NFL games found that BetMGM and Bet365 were suspended in-game and not taking live wagers on average 5-10% more each game than the market leaders. Suspension is when a sportsbook periodically shuts down betting lines in a sporting event to readjust the odds based on activity within the event, while uptime is the amount of time they are accepting live wagers during the game. DraftKings averaged 96.1% uptime last season, while Bet365 averaged only 85.5% uptime – leading to a potential loss of $4.6 million. With the American Gaming Association estimating that betting on the NFL will surge by 30% in 2024 to $35 billion, this means that over $220 million will potentially be lost by tier 1 operators over the coming season. “DraftKings is clearly the team to beat when it comes to NFL betting,” said Robert Urwin, Bettormetrics’ co-founder and CEO. “With the most amount of uptime during NFL games and least amount of time suspended in isolation compared to the other bookmakers, DraftKings has a grip on the most critical betting season in the U.S. FanDuel is close behind and could make up the distance with a few tweaks in their suspension and trading strategies.” Bettormetrics’ Trading Analytics Platform (TAP) aggregates trading performance data so bookmakers gain insight into the performance of their competitors and their own trading desk, and in turn make changes to increase revenues and profitability. “It’s staggering to see the difference in uptime and therefore potential lost revenue between four of the top sportsbooks leaders in the U.S.,” said Sabin Brooks, Bettormetrics’ Chief Revenue Officer. “Without the proper suspension strategy, it’s extremely difficult for BetMGM and Bet365 to begin to catch up to FanDuel and DraftKings. As we begin the 2024-2025 NFL season, there is a real opportunity to close some of the gap if those two bookmakers can optimize their uptime and trading performance.” Bettormetrics is an innovative company providing competitive sports odds intelligence and insight to the sports betting industry. Bettormetrics’s Trading Analytics Platform is a SAAS product supporting sportsbook trading desks with cutting edge insight and analysis on the entire event life cycle, helping sportsbooks, data suppliers and B2B platforms gain an edge on competitors and ensure no profits are left on the table.

Prescribing The Future: How MangoRx Is Shaking Up Telemedicine With A Fresh Platform

Benzinga

By Anthony Termini, Benzinga Since Covid-19, telemedicine has been expanding significantly, with 44% of physicians using it at least weekly and 40% daily in the U.S. in 2023. The industry is seen by some as a new frontier for patient education and access to medicine and care. The DEA Opens The Digital Door To The Telemedicine Industry Before the pandemic, the primary way a patient would get a drug prescription was through an in-person visit with a doctor. The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) loosened those restrictions, allowing physicians to prescribe “controlled medications” over the phone and via video conference. That’s been good for companies in the direct-to-consumer telehealth industry. One of the players in this business is MangoRx or Mangoceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: MGRX), which develops a variety of men's health and wellness products and services. Working with Surescripts, which helps coordinate all the parties in the prescription process, MangoRx recently transitioned its telemedicine platform to a newly developed DEA-approved telemedicine operating system. The new system allows MangoRx’s third-party doctor network to prescribe and offer controlled substances. These include Prime Protocol by MangoRx, powered by Kyzatrex, an Oral Testosterone Replacement Therapy and other hormone replacement treatments. According to Jacob Cohen, CEO and co-founder of MangoRx, the company is dedicated to “revolutionizing patient care,” and the new system enhances patient management by “offering seamless doctor visits, prescription auto-refills, and overall health management.” MangoRx is joined in the telehealth space by companies like Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS), a San Francisco-based telehealth company; Maximus Tribe, a compound pharmaceuticals company that also offers coaching and is based in Santa Monica, California; and Nu Image Medical, a Tampa, Florida-based company that sells weight loss, hormone replacement, sexual health, and general wellness products. Cohen argues, however, that MangoRx is setting a new benchmark for excellence in telemedicine. The company believes that the steps it is taking create meaningful competitive advantages over other companies in the space. MangoRx’s Digital Leap Shortens Time To Market MangoRx, which currently offers therapy options for erectile dysfunction, hair growth and hormone replacement, intends to use the new operating system to roll out new weight loss treatment options. These include an oral dissolvable GLP-1 tablet that includes Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, the ingredients in some of the most popular prescription weight loss medicines. The company’s new operating system helps it accelerate the ability to introduce other new product lines, the first of which is the dissolvable tablet they have branded as Slim and Trim. This brand will help MangoRx capitalize on the significant demand for GLP-1 weight loss treatments for both men and women. MangoRx expects these products will be available to patients before the end of the third quarter and that this new addition will help it to substantially grow revenue moving forward. The company says its new operating system will enable it to respond quickly to market needs and marks an important milestone for MangoRx, representing a significant advancement in its capabilities. Amanda Hammer, COO of MangoRx, says that the company has a “commitment to regulatory compliance and innovation” and that the new operating system’s cutting-edge technology puts it in a position to continue “revolutionizing patient care in the telemedicine industry.” MangoRx notes that the system is fully HIPAA-compliant to ensure that all operations adhere to stringent regulatory standards. The new system includes robust security measures to protect patient data and maintain the highest levels of confidentiality. The system upgrade accompanies a redesigned website with an improved user interface to optimize the customer experience and enhance workflows. The combination creates real-time data tracking and seamless integration that enhance operational efficiency and improve patient engagement. Featured photo by LinkedIn Sales Solutions on Unsplash.
