Molton Brown Launches Pettigree Dew Limited Edition Hand Duo

Molton Brown launches a new pettigree dew limited edition hand duo featuring Fine Liquid Hand Wash and Soothing Hand Lotion

2011-04-29

LONDON, ENGLAND, April 29, 2011 (Press-News.org) Molton Brown is pleased to announce the launch of a limited edition hand wash and hand lotion. New for spring 2011, Molton Brown's limited edition pettigree dew hand duo has been inspired by the walled secret gardens of London, offering the ultimate escapism through its fragrance.

The latest addition to Molton Brown's collection, pettigree dew hand wash and hand lotion contains calming and nourishing qualities designed to rescue dry and overworked hands.

This very British floral fragrance is infused with lentisque oil to give a burst of freshness, and English pettigree, a rich anti-oxidant, to provide a tranquil dew-scented aroma.

Through the combination of rosemary extract and the protecting properties of English pettigree - flavanoids, minerals and saponosides - these unique hand-care products contain skin-calming properties to cleanse and protect hands that have been exposed to vigorous elements, whilst leaving woody and leafy scent on the skin.

While competitors have gone for traditional garden/floral concepts, this herbaceous scent blends English pettigree, rosemary and aromatic lentisque twigs, providing a burst of freshness.

Inspired by historic secret walled gardens of London, the lead English ingredients of pettigree - also known as butcher's broom - and rosemary reinforce Molton Brown's British heritage. In addition the campaign will coincide with the Chelsea Flower show (25th - 29th May).

The soft green product colour is inspired by the herbaceous fragrance found in gardens across the UK. The bold floral graphic, is a contemporary twist on a traditional concept. Bold red poppies, bluebells and Queen Anne's Lace sit side-by-side with the exotic Chrysanthemums and Elephant Garlic.

About Molton Brown:
The Molton Brown story began in 1973 when it opened its first emporium on South Molton Street in London's Mayfair. A groundbreaking hair salon, it was renowned for its ethical, no-chemical philosophy and total natural hair care line. Early products were hand mixed in the salon from herbs and plant extracts; and were sold in hand-filled glass bottles.

Since its conception, the philosophy remains unchanged. Molton Brown products are still inspired and created through unexpected combinations of natural elements and its creativity, to constantly surprise and delight. From black peppercorns to kaffir lime leaves to Zambian malachite, each exciting new product fuses natural science with exotic flowers, plants and marine extracts sourced from around the globe.

The original ideology and sentiment behind Molton Brown's modest beginnings remains fundamental to the brand offering. Today Molton Brown is available in more than 70 countries worldwide in their own emporium, spas and online and in the world's leading luxury hotels and airlines.

Combining CT, FDG-PET provides more accurate treatments for head and neck cancer patients

2011-04-29

Combining computerized tomography (CT) with fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) images results in significantly more defined tumor outlines and potentially different treatment options in head and neck cancer patients compared to using CT alone, according to research presented today, at the Cancer Imaging and Radiation Therapy Symposium in Atlanta.

Baker Institute researchers conclude Mexico could become oil importer by 2020 without new investment

2011-04-29

Without sufficient investments in upstream oil field activities utilizing new and advanced technologies, Mexico faces the prospect of becoming a net oil importer in 10 years, according to new research by Rice University's James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy and Oxford University. The stakes of the current political stalemate over oil are quite high, the study concluded. Were Pemex, Mexico's national oil company, able to fully develop its oil in line with international standards and technology, Mexican citizens could earn $1,055 per capita per year by 2020, versus ...

Frequently hospitalized patients may benefit from new medical specialty focused on their needs

2011-04-29

Declining rates of hospitalization have discouraged primary care doctors from seeing their patients in the hospital and encouraged the growing use of "hospitalists," a new physician specialty focused on the care of hospitalized patients. Further developments in the field mean that frequently hospitalized patients also may need a specialist focused on their care, according to an expert on hospital care at the University of Chicago. The model defining the role of hospitalists, who practice only in hospitals, was first identified in a 1996 article in the New England Journal ...

Sustaining vulnerable lives

2011-04-29

Patient safety is a hot topic in the U.S., Australia and Europe. Large resources are set aside for research projects that will make life safer for patients. In Norway, the research field is still new – but researchers from Stavanger are in the forefront. "Until about five years ago the Norwegian health care system had a low focus on safety and risk management compared with other high-risk sectors", says Professor Karina Aase at the University of Stavanger. Together with her colleagues, she has concluded that there is an under-reporting of adverse events in Norwegian ...

Benefit of PET in patients with head and neck tumors cannot be assessed

2011-04-29

The benefit and harm of positron emission tomography (PET) in patients with head and neck tumours, applied alone or in combination with computed tomography (CT), cannot currently be reliably assessed. This is the result of a final report published by the German Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care (IQWiG). The Institute was commissioned by the Federal Joint Committee (G-BA) to assess the advantages and disadvantages of this diagnostic method. However, as the authors of the report explain, suitable studies for this purpose are lacking. Tobacco and alcohol ...

Student's prediction points the way to hot, dense super-Earth

2011-04-29

A planet that we thought we knew turns out to be rather different than first suspected. Our revised view comes from new data released today by an international team of astronomers. They made their observations of the planet "55 Cancri e" based on calculations by Harvard graduate student Rebekah Dawson (Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics), who worked with Daniel Fabrycky (now at the University of California, Santa Cruz) to predict when the planet crosses in front of its star as seen from Earth. Such transits give crucial information about a planet's size and orbit. The ...
