Caudalie's founders own a vineyard in France from which they source all of their patented grape-derived antioxidants: resveratrol, polyphenols, and viniferine.  Because they grow their own ingredients, they are able to include much higher concentrations in their products compared to other brands for the same price point, since other brands are buying these ingredients through distributors who add cost to the ingredients.  Caudalie has also developed lipid-soluble delivery systems for the active ingredients so that these antioxidant-rich products aren't alcohol-based like most on the market - this makes them not only more gentle but also more deeply absorbing and effective.

Verso is based in Stockholm and has created an innovative range centered on Retinol 8, a deeply absorbing and super potent retinoid called retinyl retinoate.  Retinol rationale has been shown in clinical studies to be less inflammatory than other forms of retinol, making it an excellent choice for skin that has had a difficult time tolerating retinoids due to the redness and peeling that other formulations can cause.  Retinyl retinoate has also been shown to increase hyaluronan production in the skin, meaning that it helps it hold onto water and increases its density.  Retinoids are the gold standard for reversing the signs of photoaging and intrinsic aging, and these formulations are the state of the art.

Velour Lashes are made from cruelty-free 100% mink, and are designed to be the highest quality, light weight, and comfortable, and to have an array of styles that can add length, volume, or both to your lashes.

Soleil Toujours CEO Val McMurray had a thriving business selling glamorous beach wear to the most exclusive tropical resorts in the world, and realized when pregnant with her third child that there was no sun care product that gave luxurious mineral sunscreen protection and natural anti-aging ingredients available at these resorts or on the market.  She set out to create sun protection that would feel like an indulgence, and Dr. Sherber discovered her exceptional products and mentioned them in Vogue in the article that featured her expertise and Dr. Rad's on repairing skin damage from sunburn.

Japanese scientists observed that the skin on sake workers' hands was soft and even-toned even if their faces were very aged, and discovered a substance in the fermenting rice that they named Pitera™. Only found in SK-II products, Pitera™ is full of vitamins, amino acids, minerals and organic acids that work together to allow the skin’s natural surface rejuvenation process to function at its prime. Pitera™ bears close resemblance to the skin’s Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF), and therefore sinks into the skin with extraordinary efficacy to add hydration and restore a youthful look. These products truly have a cult following in Asia, and Sherber+Rad are carrying the iconic products that made the line famous.

Sherber+Rad was one of the first retailers for SHOW in the U.S. because it represents the best of the best in haircare ingredients and technology.  British billionaire heiress Tamara Ecclestone set out to find the best chemists and labs from around the world to create a truly exceptional line of products that deliver immediate and long term benefits to the hair.  These products were developed completely from scratch, which is unheard of in haircare, using skincare-quality ingredients in uncompromising formulations.  The first 10 products had more than $10,000,000 in research and developments and the results are outstanding.

REN was developed in the U.K. and launched the “clean skincare” movement in 2000 by relying on actives that are 100% plant and mineral derived.  One of their standout characteristics is that the products are experientially lovely, with natural scents and refined textures that give them a spa-like quality.

Hollywood hair stylist Philip B. founded this line after being disappointed that even the most high end shampoos and conditioners were mainly composed of cheap ingredients: water, detergents, synthetic fragrances, and waxes.  He set out to create a line rich in authentic botanical extracts that would treat the scalp and the hair shaft with skincare quality ingredients.  The results are products that have a fanatical following.  These products are extremely popular at Barneys and Bergdorf Goodman, and Sherber+Rad is the exclusive retailer bringing these next-level haircare products to Washington.

Odacité was created in L.A. when its French founder was diagnosed with breast cancer and wanted a freshly made natural organic skincare line that would deliver results of the luxury brands that she had been accustomed to using.  Initially distributed only to private clients, the line then expanded into a full brand based on demand for these products that are uniquely free of synthetic preservatives.  Synthetic preservatives are a common irritant in skincare, and this line stands out by avoiding them.  Each product must be used within 6 months of purchase and can be kept in the refrigerator for added longevity of the active ingredients.
