Rechelbacher opened his first salon, Horst & Friends in Minneapolis in 1965. He went on to found Aveda in 1978, taking the name from the Ayeurvedic principles he had learned during his time in India. By 1997, Rechelbacher was able to sell the expanding business on to Estée Lauder for around $300M (US). Once a local favourite for small town residents in rural Minnesota, Aveda has become an international success story, with outlets in over 130 countries around the globe. Aveda products are now among the first trend setters and ecologically-minded women think of when considering hair and beauty product purchases.
Hair care
Aveda’s range of products seems to expand all the time. Their hair care line includes everything from simple clove shampoo through to innovative hair colourants that are 99% natural. Aveda’s Rosemary and Mint shampoo and conditioner are among the most popular products suitable for normal hair. Other Aveda hair products include treatments for damaged hair, a good range of styling foams and sprays, as well as a variety of smoothers, volumisers and curl enhancers. Aveda’s salons use colouring systems that are at least 93% naturally derived from plants and non-petroleum based minerals – these colour treatments include nurturing extracts from plants that actually improve the shine and overall condition of hair in addition to altering the colour.
Skin care
The company has a strong range of facial care products – from Aveda’s Botanical Kinetics range of cleansers and toners to their new Outer Peace acne treatment or Aveda’s Tourmaline Charged, oil-free SPF15 daily moisturiser, these products have been developed based on botanical science and provide the best benefits not only for your skin, but for the environment.
Makeup
Aveda’s makeup is specifically formulated from flowers, herbs and plants that work in harmony with your natural beauty. The Aveda range of cosmetics includes subtle tints for eyes, lips and cheeks as well as more dramatic shades for artistic looks. With a variety of products, such as the lightly scented Petal Essence collection, the eco-conscious Envirometal compacts and the wide variety of lip colours on offer, you’re sure to find something that suits your skin and style at the Aveda cosmetic counter.
Body care
Whether you want a good moisturiser, a more natural self-tan or a nice cup of tea, Aveda offer something to meet your needs. Aveda present an unmatched array of natural cleansers, exfoliators, moisturisers, bath products and sun care products. Most of these products are easy to find directly at Aveda’s shops, their online site or at the Aveda boutiques in larger department stores like Selfridges, Harrods, Harvey Nichols and House of Fraser. Also, discounted Aveda products are fairly easy to find online at reputable retailers.
