Virtue Labs Wins Coveted Allure Best of Beauty Breakthrough Award for 2019
This is the 25th award bestowed upon the company's hair care products since its 2017 launch
RALEIGH, N.C., Sept. 23, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Raleigh-based Virtue Labs has been named the recipient of Allure Magazine's Best of Beauty Breakthrough Award for its newest innovation, Virtue ColorKick™, a pure keratin protein powder that professional hair colorists use to prevent the damage associated with the coloring process and improve hair health.
According to Allure, "For a beauty product to win an Allure Best of Beauty Breakthrough Award, it has to be more than just great – it has to be a revolution in a compact or tube. It has to change our routines, our mindsets, even the entire beauty industry."
Virtue's award-winning ColorKick is doing just that. The first-ever hair filler made from 100% pure human keratin, Alpha Keratin 60ku Reactive™, ColorKick is a single, powerful, all-natural ingredient that is virtually identical to the keratin protein that makes up 90% of hair. Mixed right in the color bowl, ColorKick promotes the integrity of hair by refilling the keratin protein that is typically eroded through the coloring process, and repaving and sealing the cuticle for improved health, flexibility, and shine.
This is the second innovation award Virtue ColorKick has received since its launch earlier this year, and the 25th award bestowed upon the company's hair care products since debuting in February 2017. In July of this year, ColorKick won the Indie Beauty Innovator Award given by the Independent Cosmetic Manufacturers and Distributors (ICMAD), a cosmetic and personal care trade association.
"We're so honored to receive these important awards, and to have the beauty industry's leading journalists and professionals recognize the breakthrough innovation behind the Virtue brand," said Melisse Shaban, Founder and CEO of Virtue Labs. "The technology that makes our products possible was discovered by a group of scientists in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, seeking to heal severely wounded military soldiers. By chance it was also found to repair damaged hair. At Virtue Labs, our mission is to bring this technology to market to help everyday people in their everyday lives," Shaban said.
Virtue ColorKick is manufactured in the company's lab facility in Winston-Salem, NC, along with the key ingredient in all of the company's Virtue® hair care products, Alpha Keratin 60ku®.
