Luna Daily Partners Exclusively With Sephora For U.S. Launch, Becoming The First Exclusive UK Intimate Care Brand Available at Sephora

Luna Daily

New York, NY (March 28, 2023) - Revolutionary intimate care brand Luna Daily announced today that it will be partnering exclusively with beauty retailer Sephora for the brand’s U.S. launch. Luna Daily will become the first exclusive UK intimate care brand to launch at Sephora, as the retailer newly enters the category. Previously only available in the UK, this retail expansion marks the brand’s entry into the U.S. market. Luna Daily will be available in over 260 Sephora stores across the U.S. in May 2023, and on Sephora.com beginning on April 4, 2023. Luna Daily will also be featured on Sephora’s “Next Big Thing” wall, which features trending and high-potential brands. Luna Daily is a female-founded, microbiome balancing body care brand for all skin, even your most intimate. Founded by beauty-industry veteran Katy Cottam and formulated with dermatologists and gynecologists, the products are powered by Luna Daily ’s unique complex [THERMA-BIOME+™] made up of Thermal Water, Prebiotics & Vitamins to strengthen, nourish, and protect the skin’s microbiome. All Luna Daily products are pH perfect, natural and vegan, free from soap, allergens, sulfates and parabens, sustainable, and thoughtfully designed. Luna Daily has three core ranges, carefully curated to consider the changes women go through daily, weekly, and monthly - from getting your period, through motherhood, to menopause. These are comprised of Original (for daily care), Fragrance-Free (for sensitive or allergy-prone skin, including pregnancy and post-birth), and Hydrating (for dry, dehydrated or hormonally changing skin, including, perimenopause and menopause). Luna Daily will launch all three of its ranges for women of ‘all ages & stages’ exclusively at Sephora U.S. on their “Next Big Thing” wall with their best-selling hero The Everywhere Spray-To-Wipe, the World's first natural, eco alternative to single-use wipes (1 bottle = 300 wipes), The Everywhere Wash, a natural, gentle cleansing wash, and The Everything Oil, a lightweight, deeply moisturizing, multi-tasking oil clinically proven to visibly reduce ingrown hairs, dark spots, redness, and bumps for smooth, soft skin. Each product has been tested on all skin types, including sensitive skin, and was created based on the brand’s mission to revolutionize the outdated 'feminine hygiene' category by providing a simplified, thoughtfully created regimen that can be used by anyone, anywhere. The Everywhere Spray-To-Wipe will also be featured in Sephora’s “Minis and More” across 60+ stores. Multi-use, it’s perfect for instant cleansing, on-the-go, post-gym, or on your period. The Everywhere Spray-To-Wipe is the must-have companion in your handbag, gym bag, or at home. Spray directly onto skin or onto a tissue to create a refreshing, skin-friendly eco-wipe for all skin, even your most intimate. One recyclable bottle is the equivalent of 300 single-use wipes. In 2022 alone, sales of the product saved 2 million single-use wipes. “ Luna Daily was born out of personal experience of not being able to use traditional body care products for my intimate skin, frustrated at the outdated feminine hygiene products available with all of the ‘what’s wrong with her’ associations. With the help of medical experts including dermatologists and gynecologists, I created Luna Daily – microbiome balancing body care for all your skin, even your most intimate. And revolutionizing a new category of products is only part of our mission – with Luna Daily, I want to help normalize conversations and change education, connecting women to each other and their entire bodies,” said Katy Cottam, Founder of Luna Daily. “I am so thrilled to be partnering with Sephora as the leading global beauty retailer driving forward this movement. The retail environment is integral to helping us redefine the category and consumer shopping behavior and it’s a huge moment to be the first ever brand of our kind in a Sephora store alongside established beauty categories.” “Sephora is thrilled to partner with Luna Daily and continue bringing our clients best-in-class products that support all their beauty and wellness needs,” said Cindy Deily, VP Skincare Merchandising at Sephora. “With its inclusive approach and effective, clean formulations, Luna Daily offers products that support the unique needs of women at all stages of life and helps reinforce Sephora’s commitment to this important, growing category of intimate care. We look forward to introducing Luna Daily to our Sephora community and know it will be a wonderful addition to our assortment.” Luna Daily products are formulated with The Luna Daily Collective, composed of expert dermatologists, gynecologists and experts. The Luna Daily Collective is newly joined by Dr. Cheruba Prabakar, a U.S.-based board certified OBGYN who specializes in supporting women across a range of conditions, and is also a nationally certified menopause practitioner. “ Luna Daily’ s mission to provide education and dispel myths about intimate care is perfectly aligned with my own values. As an OBGYN, intimate care is one of the most common topics I address in my practice, and infections due to product use are the most frequent reason why patients come in to visit me. I am thrilled to be working with Luna Daily to continue helping people choose products that are safe, effective, and can be used from head to toe,” said Dr. Prabakar, OBGYN & medical advisor for The Luna Daily Collective. Venture capital has also taken notice of the rapid rise in consumer demand for these emerging wellness categories. In order to fuel the new market entry into the U.S. and expansion into brick and mortar retail, Luna Daily has closed a $3.7MM investment from UK firms Redrice, Joyance, and Velocity Juice, as well as angel investors. Luna Daily is over 70% female owned and has a 70% female senior leadership team. For more information on Luna Daily, visit luna-daily.com.

Why Are People So Afraid of Root Canals?

YourUpdateTV

Root canals tend to strike fear in people. Just thinking of the words are enough to terrify most of us. Root canal symptoms can be a pain. Choosing your root canal option doesn’t have to be. According to the Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2020, many people actually avoid root canals and further deteriorate the state of their teeth purely because they have misconceptions about the pain and treatment time associated with the procedure. However, root canal treatment can be extremely important – in fact, dental research shows that losing teeth can result in psychological distress due to lowered self-confidence, especially if the lost teeth are highly visible. To combat these fears and misconceptions, the GentleWave Procedure is a less invasive and less painful alternative to conventional root canal treatment. It is redefining standard treatment with a minimally invasive process that preserves tooth structure and promotes early healing. Focused on saving teeth, Sonendo is a commercial-stage medical technology company and the developer of the GentleWave System. According to a recent clinical trial, 99.5% of patients experienced minimal to no pain during the GentleWave Procedure with the addition of CleanFlow Technology. More than one million patients have received the GentleWave Procedure to date. Sonendo is leveraging its innovative technology to transform root canal therapy, making it simpler for clinicians and less invasive and almost pain-free for patients.

Easter 2023 Gift Guide

YourUpdateTV

Easter is just around the corner, and many of us have already started thinking about how to fill up those Easter baskets. While Easter candies and chocolate bunnies are a must, it can be difficult to figure out what to get for the kids in your life. Recently, Toy Trends Specialist with The Toy Association, Jennifer Lynch, participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss the top toys and trends for Easter 2023. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/6h659k4dOhc Embracing the Easter Spirit If you’re looking to embrace the Easter spirit, but want to keep things sugar-free this year, the LEGO Creator 3in1 White Rabbit is a perfect option. With this set, builders can create their own white bunny, along with a carrot and flower to munch on. Then, they can rebuild it into a cockatoo parrot and place it high up in the trees, or rebuild it again as a white seal enjoying a fish as a snack. Collectibles The Disney Doorables Squish’Alots Series 1 collectible figures are a great option for the Disney and Pixar fans. Series 1 includes 50 squishy characters from fan-favorite films. Each figure is approximately one-inch tall. Kids can recreate classic Disney tales or invent new adventures with the characters. Plus, there’s a squishy factor to all the characters for added fidget fun. Another great option for collectors is Ami Amis™. This is a collection of soft and cozy tight-knit plush toys, made of huggable, soft material with adorably cute details. The four-inch Ami Amis™ bring to life real-world objects—from food to animal pals to retro gadgets— and each character has its own personality and backstory. Sensory Toys Sensory toys have become very popular in recent years, and the Kinetic Sand Mermaid Crystal Playset is the perfect addition for the sensory bin. This playset puts kids on a treasure hunt digging through more than a pound of Kinetic Sand to uncover a reusable mermaid-shaped key, clamshell mold, shell scoop, pearls, gems, and more. Kids can then use all that’s included to create their own sand art. No-Mess Activities Crayola’s mess-free line of coloring kits, Color Wonder, continues to grow with additional characters, coloring pages, and more. The latest collection introduces new characters kids know and love, from Bluey and Gabby’s Dollhouse, to the Color Wonder Foldalope collection. Kids can color their favorite characters while staying magically mess-free with the specially formulated markers and paper. A bonus for parents, too, is that each envelope doubles as a unique storage solution for creativity on the go or simply to keep things nice and tidy at home.

We recorded the international hit song, ‘We Are Family.’ I write today in support of The American Center for Cures. Having had the privilege of traveling around the world and looking in the eyes of people of all colors, ages, and cultures, and having seen both healthy, as well as, unfortunately disease affected communities, I am in full support of an initiative I was introduced to by a very dear friend of our families, Mr. Lou Weisbach, CEO and Co-Founder of ACC. Lou, Ruthie, and their family have, over the years, shared in and supported some of my family’s great times and losses. To think that some of those sad times could have been avoided, but even more to know, now there’s a new hope, and soon other families won’t have to go through the despair of disease and loss. I am truly grateful and ecstatic to hear of the possibilities The American Center For Cures has planned. Its mission is awe inspiring and I believe it is divinely designated for such a time as this. Globally, we are in dire and imminent need of a fully funded mission to prevent, treat and cure the diseases that plague every American family. Today, I cry out for unity regarding the efforts of the ACC which can bring healing wholeness and perhaps a bond of peace. We are all diverse families sharing this small planet and we all want the same thing: healthy longevity. The ACC is unequivocally the right solution to confront the nation’s health crisis and the plan is already in place. Right now, we need only to act on it by uniting our hearts, hope, and hands in active support with quick fire momentum to result in an epic unified outcome. Let’s put these disease groups out of business. Too many families have been desperate for far too long. It’s time for prevention, cures, healing, and wholeness. Lou and Dr. Boxer have taken the position of warriors for this cause. In unity, let’s put our hands to the plow with them and burst open the doors for The American Center for Cures. I’ve often heard it said, ‘how good and pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity.’ I see only one other place where we as families strive with greater unity, and that place is in love. We can do this, together. We are family. We are unity strong.” The ACC initiative was introduced by co-founders Lou Weisbach and Dr. Rick Boxer, who was recently appointed by President Joseph Biden to the National Cancer Advisory Board. Their tireless, exemplary, and passionate efforts will enable us to turn theory into practice and finally make the families of our nation and the world recipients of long-awaited prevention, treatments, and cures through fully funded mission-based entities in the private sector individually focused on major diseases with CEO’s that are accountable and responsible to finally get the job done. Former Secretary of Health Tom Price commented that, “when this plan is approved it will rival the greatest achievements in US history and offer the sense of urgency that all American families yearn for and deserve when battling disease.” Ms. Sledge, who is also an ordained minister, and the ACC CEO Lou Weisbach are available for interviews to personally discuss this bipartisan initiative and its mission to unite medicine, science, pharmaceuticals, business, and government to seek out new treatments and cures for Alzheimer’s, diabetes, Parkinson’s, mental diseases, many forms of cancer, and several others. You can listen to “Unity Strong,” Ms. Sledge’s new song dedicated to mission of the ACC, here. About American Center for Cures The American Center for Cures (ACC) initiative is a bipartisan mission to prevent, treat and cure diseases that plague every American family. The initiative will be funded by the sale of $750B bonds by the Federal Reserve, providing the capital needed to accelerate the current trajectory of medicine. Annual interest will be paid through the licensing of new compounds and drugs to pharmaceutical companies. The principal will be repaid by savings provided to the United States Government through successes in the areas of prevention and cures. The ACC business model will cost the government and taxpayers nothing, making this the single most impactful investment on behalf of the American people in the nation’s history.
