Perhaps, because they cannot find a justified reason. Although you don’t have to wait for a special date, you can give flower arrangements whenever you want, at any time.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Because flowers, in addition to charm, delight our lives through the senses.

Well, you choose the types of flowers and bouquets according to the occasion, add a message with your own words, and finally, it is delivered on the date and location you decide.</li></ol><p style="text-align: justify;">So don’t wait for a special reason to offer soap flowers for delivery. Whatever the reason, they are ideal for pampering your partner, family and friends, and reminding them how important they are in your life.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">As a specialist in bouquets of flowers and other plants, you know it well: floristry packaging is essential for your orders to really please your customers.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Whether it’s a Christmas gift, a Valentine’s Day bouquet or a floral decoration for a wedding, you can’t do without the right packaging material for your activity!</p><p style="text-align: justify;">In this article, find out how to choose your florist packaging, and the keys to taking care of your experience as it should be .How to choose the right florist packaging for your business</p><p style="text-align: justify;">On what criteria should you choose the packaging for your plants and flowers?</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Your floral arrangements and other products deserve the best packaging! This is why you must first be clear about the criteria that will determine your choice of florist packaging.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Ensures the protection of products during transport, regardless of the mode of transport. Gone are the days when florists only sold their products in stores! From now on, they must succeed in finding packaging capable of retaining the freshness of their products, both when they are sold to take away at points of sale, as well as during e-commerce home deliveries or click-and-collect orders.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Adapts to your products . As a floral arranging specialist, you know it well: you don’t wrap a bouquet of roses in the same way as you wrap an orchid. Your packaging needs will therefore be different depending on the diameter of the bouquet or the number of stems to be packaged, the size of the pot or the height of the plant… Your packaging must therefore be designed for your specific products.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Promote your products . The packaging should not only highlight your floral arrangements and plants, but also highlight the brand image that you want to convey to your customers.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Makes it easier to unpack your products . One of the florists’ biggest fears is that their flowers or plants will be damaged when they are unpacked! To avoid this, choose florist packaging that makes unboxing your products simple, and creates strong emotions, a real “wow effect”.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Included in an eco-responsible approach . If you do a job linked to nature, you probably want to place your packaging in the same eco-responsible vein as your products. So be sure to select packaging products made from materials that do not harm the environment. For example, corrugated cardboard turns out to be an ideal material for this: recyclable and “breathable” enough for your flowers, it absorbs vibrations during transport and gives an ostensibly eco-responsible image to your plants.</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/6-good-reasons-to-offer-a-bouquet-of-soap-flowers/" target="_blank">6 good reasons to offer a bouquet of soap flowers</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/" target="_blank">https://yourlifestyleweek.com</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/6-good-reasons-to-offer-a-bouquet-of-soap-flowers/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Labeling your cosmetic products</title> <link>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/labeling-your-cosmetic-products/</link> <comments>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/labeling-your-cosmetic-products/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[admin]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Mon, 04 Nov 2024 10:58:29 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Beauty]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://yourlifestyleweek.com/?p=115</guid> <description><![CDATA[<p>4 ViewsThe DGCCRF points out that the labeling of cosmetic products meets regulatory requirements with the aim of protecting the consumer and providing them with fair and transparent […]</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/labeling-your-cosmetic-products/" target="_blank">Labeling your cosmetic products</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/" target="_blank">https://yourlifestyleweek.com</a>.</p>]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='epvc-post-count'><span class='epvc-eye'></span> <span class="epvc-count"> 4</span><span class='epvc-label'> Views</span></div><p style="text-align: justify;">The DGCCRF points out that the labeling of<a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/"><strong> cosmetic products</strong></a> meets regulatory requirements with the aim of protecting the consumer and providing them with fair and transparent information. It encourages consumers to read product labels completely. What are the regulations in force?</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">Labeling your cosmetic products</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">They must be written in easily visible and readable characters, in an indelible manner and be written in French (they may also appear in another language).</p><p style="text-align: justify;">minimum durability date, mandatory if durability is less than 30 months: indicated after the words “Use preferably before…” or after an hourglass, this is the date before which it is preferable to use the product;</p><p style="text-align: justify;">period (or duration of use) after opening, mandatory if durability exceeds 30 months: mentioned with the symbol representing an opened jar with a number of months or years, it indicates how long after opening the product can be used in complete security;</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">Example of fictitious labeling of a shampoo</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">Thus the ingredients are always named the same way, in Latin (for products derived from plants) or in English (for chemical substances);</p><p style="text-align: justify;">As a result, in general, the first 3 or 4 ingredients on the list constitute more than 80% of the product. Below 1%, ingredients may be listed out of order;</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Perfuming compositions, in order to preserve manufacturing secrets, are mentioned by the terms “PARFUM” or “AROMA”. However, the main odorous allergens must be mentioned.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">What does an ingredient called “CI” followed by a number mean ?</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">This symbol can be used if the same product is marketed with several color shades. All dyes used in the range are mentioned in the list.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">Why can we read [nano] after certain ingredients?</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">These ingredients are present in the form of nanomaterials, within the meaning of the European cosmetics regulation. When it comes to colorings, preservatives or sun filters, the ingredients in the form of nanomaterials must be subject to specific authorization and an assessment which will have judged</p><p style="text-align: justify;">In order not to be misleading for the consumer, the use of aloe vera gel or juice reconstituted from powder must explicitly mention at the beginning of the labeling the addition of reconstitution water.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Claims are all the information that may appear on product labeling and any communication relating to this product: advertising, flyers, radio or audiovisual communications, websites, etc. Any claim may be used freely in compliance with regulations: a specific European regulation on claims made on cosmetics (Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 of November 30, 2009) defines the criteria that any claim must meet in order to be used.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The other compounds mainly serve to form the texture of the product and its emollient effect on the skin, as well as to ensure its stability. They can be of natural or synthetic origin depending on technical possibilities or the manufacturer’s choice of raw material.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">There are many claims on cosmetic products and detecting those that are relevant or, conversely, potentially misleading will help you choose your products with full knowledge of the facts.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">You may be misled if you read this claim because substances with an endocrine disrupting effect have not yet been defined, and moreover, there is currently no test to verify the complete absence of this effect.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">There are different parabens, those which present a risk have been banned. Including them in a claim is misleading and denigrating to other products in this family. The same goes for phthalates.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Checking this list carefully is the safest way to inform yourself about the product you want to buy and spot the ingredients you want to avoid. This is particularly important if you suffer from allergies, as the main allergens must be labeled.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Logos or labels in favor of animals can only appear if specific actions have been carried out in addition to the simple fact of not carrying out tests on animals</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Claiming the absence of a prohibited substance is also prohibited: “without corticosteroids”, “without hydroquinone” must not appear on the products because none must contain them. For substances which you do not know whether they are authorized or not, and which you wish to avoid, it is always possible and preferable to check their absence by consulting the list of ingredients.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">What claims are permitted?</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">In general, claims that provide useful information that is not easily detectable through the list of ingredients. This is the case of the absence of certain groups of ingredients that you do not find among the Latin or English names and that you may prefer to avoid due to specific health problems (allergies, skin sensitized by treatments, accidents or surgical interventions), your lifestyle or beliefs, or because you wish to benefit from technological innovations or products with particular qualities.</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/labeling-your-cosmetic-products/" target="_blank">Labeling your cosmetic products</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/" target="_blank">https://yourlifestyleweek.com</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/labeling-your-cosmetic-products/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>How to determine the selling price of a cake</title> <link>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/how-to-determine-the-selling-price-of-a-cake/</link> <comments>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/how-to-determine-the-selling-price-of-a-cake/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[admin]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Mon, 04 Nov 2024 10:57:39 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Food]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://yourlifestyleweek.com/?p=112</guid> <description><![CDATA[<p>18 ViewsIf you are an artisan baker, or pastry chef, there is a good chance that this choice of profession was dictated by a strong taste for desserts […]</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/how-to-determine-the-selling-price-of-a-cake/" target="_blank">How to determine the selling price of a cake</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/" target="_blank">https://yourlifestyleweek.com</a>.</p>]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='epvc-post-count'><span class='epvc-eye'></span> <span class="epvc-count"> 18</span><span class='epvc-label'> Views</span></div><p style="text-align: justify;">If you are an artisan baker, or pastry chef, there is a good chance that this choice of profession was dictated by a strong taste for desserts and the joy they bring to others. The happiness brought by a beautiful cake to a couple on their wedding day or to a child on their birthday is an integral part of what makes this profession rewarding.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">However, even if being complimented for your work is nice, it is not enough: you can also make a good living from it. Here are some things to consider when setting your prices if you are new to baking.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">What to Consider When Estimating the Selling Price of a Cake</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">Let’s say you’ve just had a loyal customer on the phone who wants you to make their wedding cake. While you normally only sell pies, this person has been a customer for years and is curious if you would be willing to try your hand at a cake for their wedding day.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Bakery products rely on variable prices because they do not all require the same ingredients, the same expertise or the same manufacturing time. Before you agree on the price of a <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/"><strong>wedding cake</strong></a>, here are a few things to consider.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">If you’ve been to several weddings, you know that cakes can range from one tier to several, for example, and that it depends on the number of guests. Customers looking for wedding cakes will often give you the number of guests they are expecting to determine the number of tiers needed .</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Once you have determined the number of floors, you need to set a base cost for each floor. Although there are other things to consider before setting a final price, starting with a standard price for a single tier cake, a double tier cake, etc. will guarantee a base price, regardless of its complexity.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">You will find a quick guide to sizes based on the number of shares on Zola.com . Many pastry chefs start by pricing their cakes based on the number of slices, then add to this base price the decoration desired by the customer as well as the difficulty factor.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">When you take an order for a cake, you will likely already have examples or designs of cakes to offer. For example, chocolate cake, vanilla cake, marble cake, fruit cake… but what if a customer asks you for something different, such as a peach and cream cake? Even trickier, what if peaches weren’t in season?</p><p style="text-align: justify;">This will affect your costs. Icing can also have a significant impact on the cost of a cake. Traditional buttercream is often less expensive than a full marzipan decoration.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Basic ingredients. These are ingredients such as flour, sugar, vanilla and eggs that you will use in all your cakes. You can buy them in bulk, and their cost should be standard for each of your cake orders. So, for example, if your monthly supply of base ingredients costs you $500 and you plan to bake 20 cakes that month, the minimum amount you should include for</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Specific ingredients. This is where the more sophisticated varieties of cakes come into play. If you are creating a three-tier cake with fresh berries between each layer, add the cost of fresh fruit to that cake. Make a note of all the specific ingredients you use for each cake. Even if you have these ingredients in your stockpile, since they are not base ingredients, they cost more and you should charge more for them.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Once you’ve determined how much the cake will cost based on the ingredients and its size, it’s time to estimate what you’ll need to do to achieve the design. If you have ever been interested in pastry decoration, you probably know that some pastry chefs are capable of feats! When you add chocolate sculptures, sugar decorations or marzipan decorations, the cost of your cake can quickly increase.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Some people are so excited about getting the perfect cake for their event that they wildly underestimate the time and skill required. Only you (and maybe an assistant, if you’re lucky) will know exactly how much time and effort will go into making their dream cake.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">If your client balks at the amount you charge them, they probably don’t understand how much time and effort goes into the requested design. It is important to be firm on the cost of your work; if you accept a lower price, you will probably be tempted to save money – and ultimately produce a lower quality cake.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Just as you need to consider the skills required to make this cake, it’s important to consider the time it will take to bring it to life. So back to that phone call.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">for their wedding next weekend . Sure, it won’t take you more than a week to make the cake, but you have five other large pies to make and the client has given you little</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Before politely refusing to make this cake on such short notice, think about the price that would be correct given the deadlines. Of course, if there is absolutely no way to achieve this, you will have to refuse. But in some cases, you may be able to discuss with your client how much additional workload is in the short term and find common ground.</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/how-to-determine-the-selling-price-of-a-cake/" target="_blank">How to determine the selling price of a cake</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/" target="_blank">https://yourlifestyleweek.com</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/how-to-determine-the-selling-price-of-a-cake/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Shoe trend: the 5 pairs of sandals</title> <link>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/shoe-trend-the-5-pairs-of-sandals/</link> <comments>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/shoe-trend-the-5-pairs-of-sandals/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[admin]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Sun, 06 Oct 2024 11:26:50 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[lifestyle]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://yourlifestyleweek.com/?p=125</guid> <description><![CDATA[<p>8 ViewsIt’s already time to think about what style we want to give in to next summer.

Will we be hyper streetwear, rather bohemian or downright minimalist in 2023? Whatever our option, we will need to find the right<a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/"><strong> seasonal shoes</strong></a>, which will match the chosen look. That’s good, Here looked into the question and among the avalanche of new products, selected five styles of great sandals to take everywhere with you next summer.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">One thing is certain: summer 2023 will be rich in crazy soles!</h2><h3 style="text-align: justify;">1. The return of the Medusa in 2023</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">A big shoe trend has been spotted on the catwalks: transparent shoes. But unlike Cinderella’s glass pumps, these shoes are made from soft rubber and the Méduse brand is of course taking advantage of this to make a comeback. Gucci even appropriates the timeless style of these beach shoes that we will once again see walking around town. The must-have pair? A completely transparent model that can be combined with an impeccable pedicure. With a maxi shirt and shorts , it’s the casual chic beach look.</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">2. Spartan sandals remain the essential basic</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">They are perhaps the undisputed queens of sandals.Gladiator sandals , with their straps and their antique look, are definitely not going to stop wearing us this summer. The proof, Cachou broke down recently. Because they are just as stylish with a bohemian dress as with jeans, brands continue to reinvent them. This summer, the trend is towards tradition and authenticity. We keep the spirit of an ancient warrior with gladiator sandals with wide straps and studded details, like the Hecho model from Les Tropéziennes by M. Belarbi.</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">3. Wedge sandals crush everything in their path</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">Because we loved our platform boots and sneakers during the winter, we feel obliged to continue our momentum to stay just as hot. In spring, mules with heels and XXL platforms have a great role and even in summer we won’t be able to part with platforms. As a result, the coolest sandals of the season necessarily have a maxi sole, often flat or slightly arched, for maximum comfort. The fashionable models have thick, crossed straps, or on the contrary, fine laces which contrast with the maxi platform of the sole.</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">4. Wedge sandals are taking over the trend</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">There are different types of wedge soles. “ Wedges ” are one of these shoes with a full sole but whose platform displays a real arch. In 2023, wedge sandals are a clever mix between the strappy mules of the Y2K and the wedges of the 2010s . This results in slip-on sandals with sleek laces on the top of the foot and high, full soles underneath. From kitten heels to 12 centimeters, there are all heights.</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">5. The flip-flop is in all its states</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">Among the most fashionable sandals for summer 2023, the thong is certainly the one that stands out the most. Platform, quilted, with a high ankle boot, with heels… They were everywhere at Fashion Week Spring-Summer 2023. Since Jennifer Aniston’s wedge flip-flops came back into fashion , there are no limits for reinvent the famous “foot thong”.</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/shoe-trend-the-5-pairs-of-sandals/" target="_blank">Shoe trend: the 5 pairs of sandals</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/" target="_blank">https://yourlifestyleweek.com</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/shoe-trend-the-5-pairs-of-sandals/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>How to order a special cake for your birthday?</title> <link>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/how-to-order-a-special-cake-for-your-birthday/</link> <comments>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/how-to-order-a-special-cake-for-your-birthday/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[admin]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Fri, 04 Oct 2024 10:42:48 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Food]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://yourlifestyleweek.com/?p=109</guid> <description><![CDATA[<p>9 ViewsSpecial events deserve to be celebrated in a solemn manner.

In addition, you will not risk having an unpleasant surprise upon delivery, especially since you will have taken care to explain to your pastry chef how you would like your cake to be personalized. Using a traditional pastry chef means providing you with an exquisite and refined product.</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Convenience stores</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">To obtain birthday cakes, supermarkets may seem the most accessible solution. Today, all supermarkets have dedicated bakeries and pastries. Therefore, birthday cakes can also be purchased there. Although the preparation of these sweet delights is often industrialized, the taste remains unaltered. In terms of design, it is not always possible to personalize birthday gifts. If you want to get a unique model, this can be annoying. Despite these limitations, the professionals who make these pastries still have all the skills necessary to offer mouth-watering birthday cakes. In some cases, they even offer you the possibility of adding a personalized inscription on the pastry.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Buying birthday cakes from the supermarket is usually the ultimate solution to finding a cake last minute. For those who don’t have time to wander through traditional pastries and compare prices, this is a feasible option. This choice can also be motivated by its practicality. It allows you to get a delicious instant birthday cake.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">Online ordering: the best off!</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">To have a birthday cake, there is nothing more pleasant than being able to order it from the comfort of your home. The advent of technology has revolutionized the way of shopping. Pastries are no exception to this rule. More and more professional pastry chefs are providing their customers with digital and intuitive platforms to order cakes of all kinds, whatever the customers’ requirements.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">In just a few clicks, you can personalize and order your sweets. Number cake, layer cake, theme cake, unicorn cake, nothing is missing from these sites dedicated to pastry. The catalogs of these pastries offer a complete range of cakes that you can personalize endlessly, according to your inspiration and your requirements. Whether it’s the size, type of cream, color, flavor and decoration, you have absolutely control over every aspect of your cake.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">How to transport your cakes without damaging them?</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">When transporting cakes, it is essential to ensure that they are not affected by dust particles and harmful bacteria germs. In order not to find your pastry in shreds, it is important that it is packaged in suitable boxes.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Which cake boxes should you choose? If you want to take out the cake easily, the first choice is a cake box with an openable side wall. Simply open the box lid, unfold the sides and push in your cake. Then place it on the tray. The same goes for the cake box which can be assembled using a mechanism allowing the cake to be placed on a table or shelf. However, these box models are rare.</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/how-to-order-a-special-cake-for-your-birthday/" target="_blank">How to order a special cake for your birthday?</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/" target="_blank">https://yourlifestyleweek.com</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/how-to-order-a-special-cake-for-your-birthday/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Our 5 tips will help you make your watch last a lifetime</title> <link>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/our-5-tips-will-help-you-make-your-watch-last-a-lifetime/</link> <comments>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/our-5-tips-will-help-you-make-your-watch-last-a-lifetime/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[admin]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Fri, 06 Sep 2024 11:21:25 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[lifestyle]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://yourlifestyleweek.com/?p=122</guid> <description><![CDATA[<p>9 ViewsIf buying a watch is something special, so is wearing it.

So that the pleasure continues, we provide you with 5 tips for maintaining your precious jewel.</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">So that your luxury watch lasts a lifetime.</h2><h3 style="text-align: justify;">1. Wind your watch correctly</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">If you already have some experience with luxury watches, this point will probably seem quite trivial to you. Looking back on my beginnings, however, I know that novices are afraid of breaking the mechanism. This fear is with<a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/"> <strong>most watches</strong></a> completely unfounded. If you have an automatic watch, you often have to turn the crown 30 or 35 times to wind the mechanism correctly. If you wear your watch regularly, however, there is no need to wind it. It is only if you store it for a few days and the power reserve is exhausted that you need to rewind it. Rest assured, it is impossible to break an automatic watch by winding it “too much”. If your watch is manually wound, you must wind it each time the power reserve is exhausted, regardless of whether you wear it or not. For manually wound watches, however, a little caution is required: when the mechanism is fully wound, do not turn the crown any further. In the worst case, you could damage your watch.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">You should be a little more careful when winding the mechanism on a manual-winding watch than on an automatic-winding watch.</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">2. Clean your watch properly</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">To remove dirt and dust from your watch, you can use a soft, clean microfiber cloth. Be careful not to exert too much pressure: even a soft cloth can leave micro-scratches on the polished surfaces of your luxury watch, especially if dirt particles are caught in the mesh of the fabric. If your watch is waterproof up to 100 meters, you can also simply clean it from time to time with water and dishwashing liquid. Make sure that the crown of the watch is screwed in properly, to ensure watertightness and that water does not penetrate the caliber. Use lukewarm water and a fragrance-free cleanser. For gentle cleaning, use your hands. Finally, dry your watch carefully to remove any leftover cleaner.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">By the way: for even more thorough cleaning, you can also use a soft-bristled toothbrush. Be aware, however, that even the softest hairs cause numerous micro-scratches. I saw it with my own eyes, one sunny summer afternoon, when I glanced at my watch. So be careful. If your watch is only waterproof up to 50 meters, forgo cleaning with water and stick to a damp cloth. Although I know a few people who go swimming with their Speedmaster: don’t take that risk, you will be able to enjoy your watch for longer. Bottom line: cleaning is an important aspect of watch care. After a good cleaning, your watch will regain its original shine.</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">3. Store your watch properly: is a watch winder really useful?</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">Crucial question: should I store my watch on a watch winder? Young collectors sometimes wonder if an automatic watch can be damaged if it remains stationary for too long. Before solving the winder dilemma, I would first like to present some options for storing your watches, which I find stylish and practical. The boxes and rolls look great in a living room and are easy to store. I myself have a black wooden box. Visually, it is very elegant and allows you to store several watches. If I take several watches when traveling, I prefer a watch roll, to store my timepieces safely.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">A watch winder is a very practical object and a very attractive option for storing one or more watches. But a winder is only necessary if you have watches with significant complications that you rarely wear. For example, it avoids having to set a perpetual calendar each time. For your self-winding watches without complications, they will not suffer from being stationary for a certain period of time. On the contrary: a winder could accelerate wear, since the watches are always in motion. When you are not wearing your watch, you can store it safely in boxes, on rollers or on suitable watch winders.</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">4. Avoid scratches</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">No matter how much care you take with your watch, one thing is certain: sooner or later, it will have scratches. It’s inevitable. You won’t win this battle, but you can do your part to limit damage and wear. On a daily basis, pay attention, even to the most mundane things: opening a door, buckling up in a car, etc. By being a little careful, it’s easy to keep your beloved watch free of nasty scratches.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Use the other hand to open car doors or to put on your seat belt. When closing your jacket, make sure that the button or zipper cannot hit your watch. Remove it for any mechanical or DIY work. Do not entrust it to unknown people, especially if they are not familiar with clocks and watches. Not everyone is as fond of the subject as you are, so you might as well avoid potential indelicate manipulation. If you clean your watch, make sure that the cloth you use to polish it is always clean, otherwise it may leave a few scratches. And if, year in and year out, a scratch scars your beloved timepiece, be philosophical: see it as a mark of individuality that tells your story with this watch.</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/our-5-tips-will-help-you-make-your-watch-last-a-lifetime/" target="_blank">Our 5 tips will help you make your watch last a lifetime</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/" target="_blank">https://yourlifestyleweek.com</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/our-5-tips-will-help-you-make-your-watch-last-a-lifetime/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Cosmetics: labeling compliance in Europe</title> <link>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/cosmetics-labeling-compliance-in-europe/</link> <comments>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/cosmetics-labeling-compliance-in-europe/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[admin]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Wed, 04 Sep 2024 10:29:23 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Beauty]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://yourlifestyleweek.com/?p=106</guid> <description><![CDATA[<p>8 ViewsThe European Cosmetics Regulation No. 1223/2009 applies to finished cosmetic products, and puts in place certain requirements for the brand that would like to enter a product […]</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/cosmetics-labeling-compliance-in-europe/" target="_blank">Cosmetics: labeling compliance in Europe</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/" target="_blank">https://yourlifestyleweek.com</a>.</p>]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='epvc-post-count'><span class='epvc-eye'></span> <span class="epvc-count"> 8</span><span class='epvc-label'> Views</span></div><p style="text-align: justify;">The European Cosmetics Regulation No. 1223/2009 applies to finished <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/"><strong>cosmetic products</strong></a>, and puts in place certain requirements for the brand that would like to enter a product on the European market. One of the key stages of this compliance concerns the labeling of your cosmetic products. Follow our guide and make your labeling and packaging fully compliant!</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">The European Cosmetic Regulation</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">Implemented in 2013, European Cosmetics Regulation No. This Regulation constitutes the legislative framework that applies to finished cosmetic products when placed on the European market.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">In order to successfully enter the European market for your cosmetic product, you can read our article on the 5 steps to successfully marketing your cosmetic product .</p><p style="text-align: justify;">or with the teeth and oral mucous membranes in sight, exclusively or mainly, to clean them, perfume them, modify their appearance, protect them, maintain them in good condition or correct body odors. » .</p><h2 style="text-align: justify;">Labeling: mandatory requirements</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">Article 19 of the European Cosmetics Regulation defines the rules for a compliant cosmetic label. The mandatory information that must be printed on the product “in indelible, easily readable and visible characters” is as follows:</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Name and address of the Responsible Person : If you do not know what role the Responsible Person (PR) plays, read our key concept or our article on the subject. If your company is located outside the EU, it is mandatory to designate a PR in Europe in order to place your product on the market. If you are an EU-based cosmetics brand, you will act as the PR by default, unless you designate someone else.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Note: The expression “Made in” does not need to be translated.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Nominal content : The nominal content must appear in grams (g) or millimeters (ml) and in the first position. You can add additional units of measurement if you wish, such as oz.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Special precautions for use and warnings : Depending on the type of cosmetic product, certain precautions for use and warnings may be useful to consumers or obligatory in certain cases, for example avoiding contact with the eyes.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Product function : The function of the product should be clearly indicated, such as moisturizer, to avoid misuse. If in doubt about the primary function of your product, you can consult our article on the classification of border cosmetic products .</p><p style="text-align: justify;">List of ingredients : List in descending order of weight, with the exception of ingredients present at less than 1%.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Translation : the European Cosmetic Regulation applies to 31 countries, which represents more than 24 official languages. You must translate the function of the product, the precautions and warnings, but also the nominal content into the language of the country where you are exporting. it must include marketing content and claims.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">All of the above must be included on the labels. When it is impossible to print the mandatory information for practical reasons, for example if you do not have enough space due to the small size of your product, then you can use a notice for the specific information only. The required information appears on a leaflet, label, strip or card attached or attached to the product.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The “hourglass” symbol is used to illustrate the Minimum Durability Date (MBD) when this is less than or equal to 30 months. The DOMD is defined using the stability test. You must add the date next to the symbol.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">If the DOMD exceeds 30 months, the “open container” symbol indicates the Post Opening Period (PAO) defined by the combination of the stability test and the simulation test.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The “book and hand” symbol informs the consumer that a leaflet, label, strip or card is attached to the product and contains additional regulatory information.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The claims of cosmetic products are mentioned in Article 20 of Regulation 1223/2009, but also in a regulation dedicated to claims ( EU 655/2013 ). This regulation aims to ensure that the information relayed to end users through claims is useful, understandable and reliable. They must allow them to make informed decisions and choose the product that best meets their needs and expectations.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Cosmetic claims are generally used to market the final product. The claims will appear on the label but also in advertisements, magazines, etc. They must :</p><p>The post <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/cosmetics-labeling-compliance-in-europe/" target="_blank">Cosmetics: labeling compliance in Europe</a> first appeared on <a href="https://yourlifestyleweek.com/" target="_blank">https://yourlifestyleweek.com</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://yourlifestyleweek.com/cosmetics-labeling-compliance-in-europe/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel></rss> If you would like to create a banner that links to this page (i.e. this validation result), do the following:
