Does High Fashion Cachet Matter in Skin Care?

This week, I got a pitch for limited-edition versions of Augustinus Bader’s The Cream and The Rich Cream, a very expensive moisturiser encased in a “collectable chrome vessel.” The metallic tubes were conceptualised by Haider Ackermann, a fashion designer who helms his own line and was tapped earlier this year to guest design a couture collection for Jean Paul Gaultier. Ackermann’s signature — scrawled in blue so as to be cohesive with the line’s recognisable branding — runs down the length of each tube.
