GURNEE, Ill. — Paris Presents Inc.’s EcoTools brand is celebrating its 10th anniversary by unveiling the New Modern Eco Collection, featuring rebranding and new product innovation in all categories. The brand said it is advancing its hair, bath and spa and makeup application collections, including pioneering the first-ever makeup sponge made from plant based materials.

“As we ring in this banner year, it’s a perfect time to celebrate the brand’s new look and innovation which enables women to look and feel their best without adding time to their beauty routine,” said Stacey Ramstedt, senior director of marketing at Paris Presents.  “EcoTools’ 2017 collection embraces a sophisticated look and elevated performance, while providing straightforward education for head-to-toe beauty: for flawless makeup application, confidence-building radiant skin and healthy hair that turns heads.”

According to the company, the entire collection has evolved based on the wants and needs of today’s women and features a refreshed logo and packaging with clean colors and modern metallic accents.

The updates include:
• Redesigned makeup brushes, featuring tapered light-weight brush handles — still made from renewable bamboo — for improved comfort and performance, a brighter wood color, contemporary gunmetal ferrules and ombre bristles.
• Each product directly links to the recommended color cosmetic pairing, showcases the end benefit, features a face chart for application and identifies the level of coverage — enhancing and simplifying a shopper’s beauty routine.
