StriVectin® Trademarks Tech Neck™

NEW YORK, Sept. 6, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- StriVectin^®, the largest independent prestige skin care company, announces the registered trademark naming of their Tech Neck™ line of neck products. The collection consists of clinically-proven, results-driven formulas to visibly tighten, lift and smooth lines, while fighting the effects of technology on neck skin for a more youthful profile.

More delicate than the skin on the face, the neck is one of the first places to show our age, and technology may be making matters worse. Just as the repetitive action of furrowing your brow can lead to wrinkles, the same principle applies to the neck.  These repeated motions can cause wrinkles to be more permanent and lead to horizontal neck lines and sagging skin known as "Tech Neck".

Driven by research on modern day skin aggressors and findings showing the average person checks her mobile device approximately 221 times daily²—a figure fast on the rise— StriVectin^® set out to reinforce their longstanding authority in the neck skin care category. By widening current offerings to include assorted textures and formats encompassing a variety of consumer preferences, they have done just that. This fall, the brand will launch #FightTechNeck, a 360° marketing campaign and in-store activation created to educate consumers about Tech Neck and the importance of using a product specifically designed for the neck.

Products within the StriVectin^® Tech Neck™ line are all powered by proprietary NIA-114™ technology, which strengthens the skin barrier. This buffers against future gravity-inducing damage on the neck from constantly being "plugged in" with our heads down. All products deliver both immediate and long-term results. The visible signs of aging appear reversed for a more youthful looking profile. The collection includes NEW TL Advanced Light Tightening Neck Cream, the #1 selling neck cream¹ - TL Advanced Tightening Neck Cream, and Tightening Neck Serum Roller.

"We are firm believers in neck care as necessity," states StriVectin^® Chief Executive Officer, Joan Malloy. "As a brand perpetually seeking to fill voids in the current innovation landscape, we made it our mission to further our research in a category where we have already achieved #1 status. With the Tech Neck trademark registration, the launch of a new product, TL Advanced Light, and our upcoming campaign, our strategy is to inform consumers about this often overlooked area and that it's never too late to take the 'neck' step. Which, of course, is made easy when armed with proven formulas designed with their ever-changing needs in mind."
