P R E S S    R E L E A S E

During the first days in March the prestigious cosmetics trade fair WORLD OF BEAUTY & SPA 2013 SPRING had been held once again on the grounds of the modern PVA EXPO PRAHA – LETŇANY!

About 17 thousand visitors didn´t miss out on the latest spring trends for new ideas, energy and ideals presented on 1st and 2nd March 2013 at the 15th ever international trade fair for cosmetics, hairstyling and healthy living!

The arrival of spring fuels our desire to lay to one side a great many discomforts and stereotypes – it is a time to embrace inspiration and suggestions for change. It is not just about changes to face-hairstyling, make-up or the overall appearance. As light returns to the sky, we seek out optimism and spiritual tranquillity, both of which are inextricably linked to physical well-being. Massages, relaxation, detoxification, non-invasive gratifying body forming, aroma-therapy with spring fragrances – and, to top it off an agreeable confident appearance signifying advancement in life and new successful beginnings.

Inspiration for this “spring-like” lifestyle had been brought to you by the WORLD OF BEAUTY & SPA Spring 2013 trade fair. Once again visitors could look forward to viewing hundreds of well-known brands featuring at previous trade fairs as well as twenty companies in the field of organic cosmetics and natural care in high demand.  They allowed you to take a look at some new features, become acquainted with their philosophy as well as find interesting products to please their clients, acquaintances as well as themselves.

Anti-aging care, massages, relaxation
Taking place in several lounges as well as on the main stage, aside from a programme devoted to the latest beauty-enhancing techniques , anti-aging care and body forming, a cycle of interactive lectures and demonstrations had taken place, devoted to relaxation, regeneration, alternative healthcare, also involving training in these fields.

Those presenting topics and practical demonstrations included professionals in massage and physiotherapy, podiatry, acupressure, aroma-therapy, cosmetics which had a positive impact on a person’s spiritual realm, Chakra therapy, iris diagnostics, astrology as well as other fields. Among the largest professional alliances taking part included the Union of Cosmeticians, the Czech Wellness Association, the Association of Regeneration Specialists, the Association of Aroma-therapists, the Dexter Academy, the Czech Podiatric Society, the National Fashion Chamber, the PROKOS Cosmetics Alliance as well as a wide range of specialists working in the field of dermatology. The trade fair provided visitors with consultation and prevention services: above all involving a wide spectrum of the best professionals was ready to answer their questions and offer practical advice for cultivating physical appeal as well as a healthy lifestyle. One of the foundations for this is being able to reach a state of spiritual tranquillity, followed by the expelling of fears, healthy self –actualisation and the adoption of a positive approach to yourself as well as those around you.

TRENDS IN MAKE-UP, HAIR-STYLING, CLOTHING - LOOK 2013
Visitors keen on following trends in make-up and styling didn´t  want to miss out on the trends of brands, now already a tradition being presented by Pavel Bauer, Štěpánka Podroužková and other leading make-up artists.  As an interpretation of the topic for the next competition across the hairstyling world INSPIRATION 2014, the best hairstylists had been revealing how to perform magic with a pair of scissors, accompanied once again by a separate hairstyling performance.

Once again visitors had the chance to try out a new hairstyle using computer simulation, had a photo printout made to serve as inspiration, and for the more courageous ones, to made a new hairstyle in the hands of skilled hairdressers. Once again the fashion themes had been  topped off with several shows featuring clothes and fashion design.

Forming an integral part of beauty enhancement, we could look forward to taking a look at the latest trends in nail design, manicures and nail decorations, always presented by dozens of exhibiting companies. Companies presenting machine and traditional pedicures as well as consultancy in foot care, operating under the guidance of the Czech Podiatric Society took also a place at the trade fair.

Training and acquiring new qualifications
The offer included a wide range of topics, not only aiming to appeal to visitors who wish to use the services of professionals but also those with a desire to actively work in the field of beauty and relaxation services and to gain further education or go for a change direction by qualifying in this field.

Competitions
Once again a range of competitions had been put together for admirers and trail-blazers for fashion styles as well as competitive individuals and their fans. On Friday, Pavel Bauer put together the next round of the CREATIVE IMAGE TEAM competition for talented teams comprising a hair-stylist – make-up artist – model. This time on the topic of “THE COLOR GAME”.

For the Saturday competition in photo make-up, Štěpánka Podroužková had prepared the topic of
„A VENETIAN NIGHT”.
She had the following to say about the topic: „I was inspired by the traditional carnival which has been held in Venice since the 13th century. The symbol for the event are Venetian masks, produced using a special technique and decorated with copious amounts of gold, precious stones and feathers. However only a few people are aware that the masks are sometimes painted directly onto the face and thus can form the basis for photo make-up”

In conjunction with foreign and local organisers, “Nail” competitions were also set to be interpreted in a new way – in traditional style this will involve the Friday competitions for the Czech and International Championships in nail art and the manicure championships.

Once again spring is linked to the junior competitions.  The best finalists of the Kalibrcup in Lanškroun had been presenting their make-up and hairstyles as well as the designer competitions in České Budějovice, competitions from the National Fashion Chamber and narrative competitions for children and young people up to fifteen years of age both locally and from abroad. Further new but exciting competitions presenting  on Saturday were” FatZero Beauty & Fitness Cup 2013“ and „The Wedding Cake 2013“.
