MacKenzie-Childs Partners with Cowshed

AURORA, N.Y., Feb. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- MacKenzie-Childs announces its first ever partnership with the quintessentially English cult beauty brand Cowshed with the launch of two striking handcare products this February 2012.

The Cowshed for MacKenzie-Childs collaboration is a colourful design partnership, featuring two of Cowshed's most iconic products – Grubby Cow and Cow Slip – wrapped in a new print designed by MacKenzie-Childs and inspired by the original Cowshed packaging concepts of sweet, delicate flowers. The perfect complement to Mackenzie-Childs "tradition with a twist" design aesthetic, the Cowshed for Mackenzie-Childs handcare brings a fresh new spin to a staple household beauty duo.

Cowshed boasts a natural and therapeutic product line known for good, clean fun using no artificial colors or fragrances, and no animal products except organic beeswax and wildflower honey.

• Grubby Cow Hand Wash ($24) – Infused with peppermint oil, a cooling antiseptic, to help stimulate and rejuvenate the hand, plus sweet orange oil to cleanse and tone; this zesty wash gently cleans without drying
• Cow Slip Hand Cream ($26) – The healing properties of spearmint oil makes this a must for over-worked hands, while petitgrain oil maintains moisture, preventing dryness and restoring supple skin for younger looking hands

The Cowshed for MacKenzie-Childs Collection will be available at MacKenzie-Childs Retail Stores, MacKenzie-Childs.com, Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, in independent retailers and in Soho House's Cowshed spas, including New York and Miami.
