Zhao Lusi shines in comeback livestream after health struggles
4 Mar - Zhao Lusi continues to show that she is now doing much better, following her previous hospitalisation due to mental and physical health issues.
On 1 March, Zhao made a surprise appearance at a livestream event of a company selling cosmetics, wearing all pink and talking and laughing happily as she helped in promoting the products.
Zhao also appeared calm and confident, and was able to help sell RMB 3 million worth of cosmetics during the live session. The overall sales of the same product also exceeded RMB 25 million with the number of viewers reaching 3.1 million at one point.
At the end of the livestream, she expressed, "I hope everyone can be happy, and pay more attention to their own emotions and their own lives. In this case, I will continue to live a good life."
It was back in December that it was revealed that Zhao was rushed to the hospital due to health problems. She later revealed that she was diagnosed with dissociative disorder, anxiety disorder and aphasia.
Following her discharge, Zhao took some time off work to undergo physical rehabilitation after losing her ability to move properly.

Burnout is at a 10-year high for U.S. workers
If you feel as though you've been hearing your colleagues, professional acquaintances, family or friends talk about burnout more than usual, you're not imagining it. According to a recent report by Glassdoor, burnout among U.S. professionals has escalated to unprecedented highs, with burnout mentions in employee reviews increasing 32 percent year-on-year as of Q1 2025. In fact, mentions of burnout have increased by 50 percent since Q4 2019, just before the Covid-19 pandemic began and irrevocably changed the world of work as we knew it. This marks the highest rate since data collection began in 2016. Executive Director, Office of Legislative Management, Hartford Political Action Committee Manager, AVMA, Washington D.C. Director of State Campaigns, American Promise, Concord Senior Policy Specialist, Arnold & Porter, Washington D.C. Senior Education Policy Counsel/Education Policy Advisor, Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, Washington D.C. While the term 'burnout' has become an all-encompassing phrase for everything from stress to lack of motivation, the World Health Organization describes burnout as a 'syndrome conceptualized as resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed.' The WHO characterizes burnout via 'three dimensions'. These include feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion; increased mental distance from one's job, or feelings of negativism or cynicism related to one's job; and reduced professional efficacy. It stressed that 'burnout refers specifically to phenomena in the occupational context and should not be applied to describe experiences in other areas of life.' However, it's hardly surprising that employees who are experiencing burnout are seeing the repercussions of its effects in other areas of their lives. The Glassdoor report also identified that burnout can manifest as decreased morale and diminished perceptions of career opportunities (down 21 percent), diversity and inclusion (down 17 percent), work-life balance (down 34 percent), and compensation and benefits (down 15 percent). Additionally, the study found that employees who reference burnout tend to rate their employers significantly lower, averaging 2.68 out of 5, compared to a 3.61 average among those who don't mention burnout. Glassdoor's Lead Economist, Daniel Zhao, describes burnout as a 'slow-burn problem' that can erode the overall employee experience, even among those who are otherwise content with their workplace. 'As businesses trim budgets and headcounts, employees and managers alike are being asked to do more with less,' said Zhao. 'That's a recipe for burnout as workers are stretched increasingly thin without an end in sight.' He added: 'Employees who rate their employer 5 stars out of 5 are the least likely to apply to new jobs, but if they mention burnout in their reviews, their turnover intentions increase by 58 percent. Similarly, for an employee who rates their employer 4 stars, their turnover intentions rise 66 percent.' And it's not just employees that are feeling the heat. Burnout imposed a significant financial burden on employers too. A study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine estimates that burnout costs employers between $4,000 and $21,000 per employee annually. For a company with 1,000 employees, this translates to an estimated $5.04 million in annual costs. While restructuring in the name of efficiency is one way to trim headcount, a negative work environment can also have a direct impact on talent retention. In fact, a survey by Isolved found that nearly 80 percent of employees have experienced burnout in the last year, resulting in lower engagement, reduced productising and an overwhelming feeling of restlessness that prompted 72 percent of existing employees to consider changing jobs within the next year. So how can employers address burnout and create meaningful solutions for their employees? While some companies have implemented stress-reduction programs and are giving staff access to mental health resources, focusing on individual responsibility doesn't work in the long term. Instead, implementing organizational changes that promote work-life balance, such as flexible working hours, four-day workweeks, childcare subsidies, and support for family care are what workers really crave. So what can you do if you find yourself burnt out and wondering what to do, or where to go next? Seeking out a company culture that prioritizes employee wellbeing is paramount in mitigating burnout and its associated costs and if you're navigating a job hunt, The Hill's Job Board is the perfect place to focus your daily with a range of roles in policy, communications, and related fields, it's an extremely valuable resource.

Unilever's CLEAR Launches Scientific Anti-Dandruff Series: Lab-Proven Tech Targets Oil, Flakes, and Sensitivity
SHANGHAI, May 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On April 17, 2025, CLEAR, Unilever's premium professional anti-dandruff brand, officially launched its first SCALPCEUTICALS PRO RANGE globally at TANK Shanghai. This series embodies the brand's 50 years of scientific research and unites the efforts of five global labs and over 200 dermatologists. Using three patented technologies[1] to precisely target scalp concerns like oiliness, dandruff, and sensitivity, it powerfully initiates a revolutionary new era of 'cellular-level[2] repair' in scalp care, ushering in a new chapter for premium quality in the field. CLEAR SCALPCEUTICALS PRO RANGE Global Launch: Redefining Premium Scalp Care with Technological Innovation Currently, China's premium scalp care market is experiencing explosive growth, expanding at a rate of 190% and reaching a scale of over 33 billion RMB. Faced with evolving consumer demands and their diverse needs for scalp health, simply focusing on ''cleansing'' is no longer enough to satisfy their desire for a premium experience. 'The key to a healthy scalp lies in fundamental repair at the cellular level.' Elsharkawy Mohamed, Unilever China's Hair Care Marketing Director and Global Vice President of CLEAR, emphasized that Clear is now focusing on cell science and announced the global launch of the brand's first SCALPCEUTICALS PRO RANGE. This series, developed through a decade of research in partnership with five global labs and tested by more than 200 dermatologists, reportedly features a revolutionary 'cellular-level hair care technology matrix.' It's designed to address the core issues of oiliness, dandruff, and sensitivity, helping to build a healthy scalp environment. Revolutionary Breakthrough at the Cellular Level: CLEAR Unveils the 'Scalp Cell Response Mechanism' Eric Han, Head of R&D for Unilever Beauty & Wellbeing North Asia, stated: ''In the new era of scalp care, treatment should not remain superficial. CLEAR's technological approach is about 'rebuilding the foundation' by synergistically managing cell metabolism and the scalp microbiome to help restore scalp health.'' Thus, the CLEAR SCALPCEUTICALS PRO RANGE, built upon three patented technologies[1], now introduced five targeted products: The Selenium Disulfide Anti-Dandruff Shampoo incorporates Unilever's proprietary Selenium Disulfide PRO[3] Technology, which strengthens the protein 'skeleton' and 'outer walls' of barrier cells[2] to eliminate and prevent dandruff at its root cause[4], clearing 99% of flakes in just one wash[5], and correcting oiliness, dandruff, and itch in 4 weeks[6]. The Scalp Massage Essence helps repair the scalp barrier and create an invisible shield against dandruff. For recurrent dandruff issues, the Anti-Dandruff Conditioning Shampoo utilizes Piroctone Olamine[7] Technology to not only inhibit and fight dandruff but also to improve the scalp environment, boosting dandruff resistance by 500%[8]. Beyond breakthroughs in dandruff control, CLEAR has launched its first clinically proven Oil Control Shampoo to address excessive sebum secretion. Utilizing Sebum-reg tech[9], it inhibits 'scalp oil production' for a purer and more controlled scalp, correcting oily hair in 4 weeks[10]. Specially formulated for sensitive scalps, the Soothing and Repairing Shampoo is inspired by Nobel Prize-winning research. It features the SENSICARE[11] ingredient to precisely block sensitivity signals and correct the four major concerns of dryness, itch, tightness, and redness within four weeks[12]. From Product Innovation to Industry Leadership: CLEAR is Pioneering a New Era of Scalp Health. CLEAR's newly launched 'cellular-level repair' series directly addresses the growing consumer demand for premium products. On one hand, CLEAR is benefiting from the innovative energy of the Chinese market to continuously push technological boundaries, taking this 'cellular-level repair' standard, which originated from Chinese consumer needs, to a global stage. On the other hand, this move will also accelerate the beauty and hair care industry's shift from a 'functional' approach towards a more 'scientific' one, ultimately raising the industry's overall level. 'CLEAR has dedicated over 50 years to in-depth scalp research. This newly launched SCALPCEUTICALS PRO RANGE represents a vibrant step in the brand's ongoing commitment to its premiumization strategy and its exploration of localized innovation within China,' stated Chen Ge, President of Unilever China. 'China is not only a significant global consumer market but is also becoming an innovation hub for the beauty and hair care industry. By deeply integrating into China's innovation ecosystem, we are upgrading from functionality to science, and from products to systems, thereby injecting continuous momentum into the transformation and sustainable growth of the global industrial chain.'
