Marcelle Introduces Skincare Collection to Support Skin Through Menopause
MONTREAL, Aug. 12, 2025 /CNW/ - Marcelle, a proudly Canadian and science-driven skincare brand trusted for more than 150 years, is unveiling its most ambitious innovation to date: the Revival+ Vitality Menopause Collection.
Formulated with science, compassion, and a nuanced understanding of hormonal skin changes, the collection is designed specifically to support women navigating the physical effects of menopause – a life stage experienced by 100% of Canadian women, and too often overlooked in the skincare industry.
Real Skin Changes with Real SolutionsCo-created with 400 menopausal women, and developed with dermatologist-recommended ingredients and tested for sensitive skin, Marcelle's two new targeted formulas meet the moment with purpose and proof:
Revival+ Vitality Redensifying Day Cream: Densifying, firming, hydrating with vitamin D, turmeric, and squalane.
Revival+ Vitality Redensifying Eye & Lip Cream: Redensifies and comforts dry, sensitive areas using hyaluronic acid, urea, and squalane.
Clinical results show:
Firmer skin in just three hours*
55 per cent wrinkle reduction**
30 per cent reduction in dark spots**
27 per cent improved elasticity*
48-hour hydration***
"We developed this line to reflect the visible, real-life changes women experience during menopause, and to reinforce that they deserve skincare that evolves with them," says Otilia Beschea, Director of Innovation, Groupe Marcelle Inc. "This is more than a product launch; it's Marcelle's commitment to standing with Canadian women at a time when visibility, representation, and support are more important than ever."
A New Chapter in Canadian SkincareWith menopause conversations finally gaining momentum across media, literature, and healthcare, Marcelle is stepping up as one of the first major Canadian brands to recognize this transition with specialized, science-first skincare.
As part of this commitment, Marcelle will join the National Menopause Show in Toronto this October 2025 – a first-of-its-kind event dedicated to education, community, and open dialogue. The brand will host a booth experience and present a live "Revive & Thrive" stage session, sharing insights on the impact of menopause on skin and ways to support skin health during this pivotal life stage.
Backed by Canadian research and made in Montreal, the Revival+ Vitality Collection continues Marcelle's commitment to clean, fragrance-free, hypoallergenic formulas that are always tested on sensitive skin.
"For too long, menopause has been shrouded in stigma, and that silence has left women without the support they deserve," says Amanda Thebe, menopause educator, bestselling author, and Marcelle spokesperson. "As someone who has worked with thousands of women navigating this transition, I know how impactful the physical and emotional shifts can be – especially when they're dismissed or misunderstood. I'm proud to partner with Marcelle on a collection that validates these experiences, and offers real, clinically grounded solutions for menopausal skin."
The Marcelle Revival+ Vitality Collection is available now nationwide and at www.marcelle.com. Visit the site to learn more or find the line at Shoppers Drug Mart and other leading Canadian retailers.

We Talked to 6 Derms and They All Agreed: This Common SPF Misconception Is Putting Your Skin at Risk
Sunscreen is easily the most effective way to protect your skin from the sun, which unrelentingly emits damaging UV-A and UV-B rays that can cause cancer and signs of premature aging (like wrinkles, sun spots, and sagging skin). The thing is, you've got to know how and when to apply it well if you want to reap the full rewards of SPF. 'Using sunscreen properly is what really keeps your skin safe,' explains Ellen Marmur, MD, FAAD, a board-certified dermatologist and founder of MMSkincare. 'You should apply at least an SPF 30, apply it generously, and reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating.' There are tons of sunscreen myths out there—like not needing to wear SPF if it's cloudy or that sunscreen in your makeup is enough (both wrong)—but today we're diving into one of the most pervasive out there! Related: 8 Spots You're Forgetting to Apply Sunscreen, According to Derms Myth: If You Wear a High SPF, You Don't Need as Much One of the biggest sunscreen myths is that if you apply a higher SPF—like a 50, 75, or even 100—you don't need to apply as much or as often. This is not the case, and failing to reapply enough every two hours will inevitably hurt your skin. We surveyed six dermatologists about this, and here's exactly what they have to say. Tanya Kormeili, MD, FAAD 'Do not be fooled to think that applying SPF 50 thinly might still give you about SPF 30-level protection. That is not true,' warns Tanya Kormeili, MD, FAAD, board-certified dermatologist and founder of the Derm and Rejuvenation Institute. 'The trick to better protection beyond the choice of SPF number is in the proper and adequate amount that you use. If you don't have adequate protection, you are being irritated by UV rays. It is that simple.' Related: Black Skin Still Needs Sunscreen—Here's Why Brooke Jeffy, MD, FAAD 'Higher SPF does not mean you can apply less or use less frequently. Think of it as a bit of a hedge against our natural tendency to not use or reapply adequately,' says Brooke Jeffy, MD, FAAD, a board-certified dermatologist. When applied incorrectly, 'you do not get the level of coverage possible from the product and are more likely to experience burns and cumulative damage from radiation that leads to skin cancers, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation.' Kseniya Kobets, MD, FAAD 'Both SPF 15 and 100 will get rubbed off or sweated off, and the increased protection assumes immediate sunburn delivered, not over time as it naturally happens,' explains Kseniya Kobets, MD, FAAD, board-certified dermatologist at Montefiore Einstein Advanced Care. She adds, 'Obviously, applying inadequate amounts of SPF will deliver lower SPF than promised on the bottle, plus it will wear away faster than two hours, putting you at risk for painful blistering sunburn, damaging your skin cells' DNA that not only predisposes your skin to age prematurely, but also increases risk of skin cancers like melanoma (the deadlier one), basal cell, and squamous cell.' Related: Does Sunscreen Prevent Tanning? Here's What a Dermatologist Has to Say Alexandra Bowles, MD, FAAD 'High SPF sunscreens can offer slightly more UVB protection than SPF 30, but the difference isn't as dramatic as many people think,' notes Alexandra Bowles, MD, FAAD, a board-certified dermatologist at MONA Dermatology. 'For example, SPF 30 blocks about 97% of UVB rays, while SPF 50 blocks around 98%, a small difference that can create a false sense of security. What matters most is applying sunscreen generously and reapplying every two hours, no matter the SPF.' Ellen Marmur, MD, FAAD 'SPF 30 already blocks most UV-B rays, so it's more important how you use sunscreen than the number on the bottle,' Dr. Marmur says. 'Go for the highest number SPF that you will genuinely use well enough to cover your skin. Now that formulations are more elegant, search for an SPF 50. It's best to use a lotion for your face, ears, neck, and a spray for your body and hands and feet and scalp.' Nazanin Saedi, MD, FAAD 'I most commonly see SPF 30, 45 and. 50, and the difference is admittedly marginal. If you have fair skin that burns easily, melasma, rosacea, or a higher skin cancer risk, it's always best to choose the higher SPF level,' says board-certified dermatologist Nazanin Saedi, MD, FAAD. 'But regardless of what level of SPF you choose, you must reapply every two hours for it to remain effective.' Read the original article on Real Simple

Tepper Scoops Up Beaten Down UnitedHealth, Trims China Bet
(Bloomberg) -- Billionaire David Tepper showcased his style as a contrarian investor, scooping up shares of beleaguered UnitedHealth Group Inc. in the second quarter while trimming stakes in Chinese stocks. The US-Canadian Road Safety Gap Is Getting Wider Festivals and Parades Are Canceled Amid US Immigration Anxiety To Head Off Severe Storm Surges, Nova Scotia Invests in 'Living Shorelines' Five Years After Black Lives Matter, Brussels' Colonial Statues Remain For Homeless Cyclists, Bikes Bring an Escape From the Streets Tepper's Appaloosa Management LP boosted its holdings of the health insurance giant by 2.3 million shares, valuing the stake at $764 million, according to a 13F filing Thursday and Bloomberg data analysis. Shares in the health insurer rallied as much as 14% in premarket trading on Friday. UnitedHealth made up about 11.9% of Appaloosa's $6.45 billion equity portfolio, marking the second-largest position after Alibaba Group Holding Ltd., even after the firm cut holdings in the e-commerce company. Inc. and PDD Holdings Inc. were among other Chinese companies who saw stakes reduced by the family office. UnitedHealth rallied nearly 10% in after-hours trading as Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc. also disclosed a stake in the company. The shares tumbled about 40% during the second quarter, as the health insurer suspended its annual forecast, replaced its chief executive officer and reportedly faced a criminal investigation for possible Medicare fraud. It was among the worst performers in the S&P 500 Index during the stretch. The company said in July it was cooperating with the Department of Justice and has 'full confidence' in its practices. With the investment in UnitedHealth, Tepper once again showed his willingness to make bold bets that most others shun. He started buying Chinese stocks last year when investors fled the market amid concerns of a slowing economy and rising geopolitical risks. The bets have paid off as the MSCI China benchmark rallied about 46% over the past year as Beijing moves to stimulate the economy. Read: Billionaire Investor Tepper Boosted China Bet Before Rally (1) But Tepper slashed his Chinese positions last quarter, a period in which President Donald Trump's tariff war roiled global markets. Appaloosa cut the holdings in Alibaba by more than 20% to 7.1 million shares, though at about $802 million, it remains Appaloosa's largest holding. Tepper also reduced his stakes in by 13%, slashed Baidu Inc. by 19% and reduced PDD by more than 50%. --With assistance from Subrat Patnaik. (Updates with premarket stock in paragraph two.)
