SoapBox Soaps, Global Beauty Care honored for new products at ECRM event

6/18/2015
ATLANTA — SoapBox Soaps, an Alexandria, Va.-based provider of natural soaps, was the winner of this year’s Drug Store News Best New Product award for its Intense Hydration Body Lotion.

The award was presented during ECRM’s 2015 Skin, Bath, Cosmetics & Fragrances event held June 14 to June 17 in Atlanta, and was specifically for products in those categories. Global Beauty Care took the finalist slot for its So Fresh So Clean GROOVY Green Tea Wash-Off Mask.

The two products were selected from a dozen entries in the award program, samples of which were displayed in the ECRM hospitality area throughout the event. Buyers cast their votes based on product innovation and packaging.

SoapBox Soaps, run by CEO and co-founder David Simnick and president and COO Daniel Doll, is a “soap company with a mission.” For every soap product purchased, it provides clean water and sanitation initiatives all over the world and here in the United States. The company gives one bar of soap for every bar sold; one month of clean water for every liquid hand soap sold; and one year of vitamins for every body-wash sold.

But its products stand on their own, as evidenced by their selection for top honors at the event. In addition to its body lotion, SoapBox also offers soap bars made with shea butter and sea salt, liquid hand soaps, and body washes — both made with shea butter, aloe and jojoba oil.

Brooklyn-based Global Beauty Care, led by brothers Albert Savdie and Jack Savdie, uses advanced technology and quality ingredients to create a full line of innovative skin care products for women designed to help repair, replenish and strengthen compromised skin conditions, according to the company. Its skin care portfolio consists of make-up removers, facial cleansers, skin toners, age defying, exfoliating, blemish clearing and moisturizing products.

“We congratulate SoapBox and Global Beauty Care on their recognition at this year’s event,” said Josh Clyne, category development manager for ECRM’s HBC division. “It’s great to see our attendees’ continued success, and we are honored to help provide a platform for their growth via our events and relationships with trade media brands like Drug Store News.”
