With the new training and running shoe, ZigTech, Reebok introduced a new technology that literally gives power to the wearer every step of the way. With its unique geometry highlighted by zig-zag soles, Reebok was able to come-up with a shoe that enables energy transfer back to actual running stride.

Everything about Reebok’s ZigTech is designed to conserve and return energy to the athlete for a soft and springy ride.

The one-of-a-kind ZigTech bottom unit showcases innovative, lightweight foam engineered to reduce wear and tear in key leg muscles by up to 20 percent, allowing the wearer to train harder and more efficiently!

The unique sole works by absorbing the impact of heel strike, sending a wave of energy along the length of the shoe and propelling the athlete forward with each step.

Bill McInnis, Reebok’s Head of Advanced Innovation, explained, “Traditional energy return is focused only on the vertical impact of the heel strike. In contrast, ZigTech is designed to transfer energy horizontally along the zig-zags so the athlete gets that energy back in the forefoot.”

The lightweight, flexible bottom unit, combined with a minimalist upper and whisper-quiet ground contact also contributes to making ZigTech a new standard in running and training footwear. This results to less strain particularly on the shins and hamstrings.

The increased ground contact also allows the wearer to capture and maintain energy throughout the entire stride.

The new technology was tested under rigorous conditions back in the Reebok training labs, and was proven to work effectively even after an accumulated 17,500 hours of running, and 27,000 hours of casual activities.

The new Reebok Zigtech is available in three state-of-the-art, eye-catching variants: Reebok Zigpulse, Reebok Zigfuel, and Reebok Zigenergy.

ZigTech is a multi-purpose training shoe perfect for any mid to high impact training activities. In addition to running, ZigTech also provides the necessary support and stability required for conditioning based training activities.

Reebok ZigTech will change the way you train.

Reebok ZigTech is available at Reebok concept stores in Megamall, Trinoma and Festival Mall and at The Shoe Shop Rockwell and Royal Sporting House Robinson’s Ermita.

“Having decoded the eight dimensions of Fine Fairness®, the latest Neutrogena range combines the most advanced skincare technology to provide a holistic approach that targets all the aspects of skin radiance,” explained Neutrogena brand manager Gabby Roxas. “Fair, radiant skin is achieved through Neutrogena’s eight-dimensional approach to fine fairness – Protect, Shield, Lighten, Renew, Block, Calm, Prevent and Restore.”

Each of the products under the Neutrogena Fine Fairness® Range work synergistically to help women achieve fair skin. With Neutrogena’s HealthyWhite™ Complex, a combination of natural ingredients that effectively work on the surface and deep within skin to provide women with visible skin-tone improvement.

The Fairness Regimen

The Neutrogena Fine Fairness® Cleanser (P297) is the first step in achieving long lasting radiance. This purifies the skin as it thoroughly removes impurities, helping improve overall fairness and clarity. The rich and creamy foam removes dirt, oil and dead skin cells without stripping skin of its natural moisture. It also contains Vitamin C, Essential Soy and skin-lighteners to improve fairness and translucence of skin.

The Neutrogena Fine Fairness® Toner(P458.25) is a whitening toner that helps improve overall fairness and translucence. It contains Vitamin C and Essential Soy™ to help reduce discoloration for a more even skin tone. Special liposome delivery system deposits whitening ingredients into skin to help lighten overall complexion. Natural extracts and skin conditioners also replenish moisture, keeping skin soft and hydrated.

The Neutrogena Fine Fairness® Lotion SPF 30/PA++(P720) prevents the appearance of melanin on the inside and at the same time, moisturizes and protects skin on the outside. With HealthyWhite™ Complex and light-diffusing minerals, it boosts the whitening process and reduces uneven pigmentation. In addition, the UVA and UVB formula with SPF 30 shields skin from darkening and photo damage. This oil-free whitening lotion improves overall skin fairness, reduces dullness and sallowness, while smoothening skin and making pores less visible.

Suited for use at night, the Neutrogena Fine Fairness® Cream(P774) protects inner skin against melanin to give an even, translucent skin tone. It also has high concentrations of HealthyWhite™ Complex, thereby giving skin a healthy, rosy glow while you sleep.

“Maximum results of the Neutrogena Fine Fairness® Range are best achieved when all of the products in the range are used synergistically,” added Roxas. “With the extensive research and technology put into the development of the Fine Fairness® Range, Neutrogena promises to continuously deliver real and effective results that women will see and experience once they try the products in the line.”

The four core Fine Fairness® products are now available in stores nationwide .

This campaign, entitled Summer Light, is the fourth one that Scarlett Johansson has featured in for the firm since becoming the brand image last year. Together with the actress, MANGO presents us four key trends for this summer.

Red&Blue returns to garments with a light ad-lib touch in blue and white tones. White, the summer colour par excellence, combines with different tones of blue in very light cotton fabrics, chambray and jeans. The key garments in this range are dresses and waist-height skirts featuring floral prints, embroidery, frills and lace details.

Sexy contrast reveals a clean line in which new volumes, such as A-cut skirts, sack forms and kaftan are introduced. Graphic contrasts are highlighted in prints, embroidery and jewels in natural fabrics which add richness to the purest summer lines.

With its romantic and boudoir air, Romantic Mood adorns its garments with floral motifs and a handmade look. The richness is also provided by the textures and weaves of the fabrics, producing a relaxed and urban silhouette with the introduction of rich tones and natural textures.

Similarly, South Seas features a combination of paisleys, mixing patchwork motifs, which give movement to the fluid and sheer silhouettes.

MANGO has 16 stores nationwide. Its concept is based on an alliance between a quality product, in accordance with the latest fashion trends, and value for money price.
