[Interview] Ms. Dao Huyen – CEO of S.H.E Cosmetics Ltd., Vietnam
Vietnam has recently become one of the hottest growth markets for beauty and cosmetics in Asia. Wellness Today is fortunate to talk with a Hanoi-based beauty enthusiast and cosmetics dealer Dao Huyen, founder & CEO of S.H.E. Cosmetics Ltd. ▲ Ms. Dao Huyen, founder & CEO of S.H.E. Cosmetics Ltd. [WT] Could you tell us a bit of your background? [DH] I have been working in cosmetics field for more than 5 years. I started as a sales person at a small cosmetics shop. It was about two years ago when I became deeply attracted by cosmetics trading business. At that time, I was working as a sales & marketing manager at a local skincare clinic which sells not only skincare services but also cosmetics products. While working, I found that the Vietnamese cosmetics market was booming but needed to mature as customers were rapidly getting savvy. I soon moved to a Korean cosmetics company in Hanoi and started working as a manager at large. At this company, I was fortunate to get many insights from local distributors and consumers. I found Korean-made cosmetics products were getting high popularity in local market. In early 2018, with the vision of bringing the best cosmetics products mainly from Korea to the Vietnamese customers, I started my own business, S.H.E Cosmetics Ltd., offering OEM ODM services to local enterprises and also sourcing the hottest trend cosmetics from Korea for local distributors in Vietnam. [WT] What do you think about today’s Vietnamese cosmetics market? [DH] The cosmetics consumption in Vietnam is still low compared to neighboring countries like Thailand. However, if you have a better understanding of the characteristics of the country, Vietnam is more promising than any other country. It's really an attractive market. Above all, the percentage of younger people under 35 is 60%. Due to rapid westernization and increased personal social exposure, young people are more interested in their appearance than ever before. The other reason why the Vietnamese market is more attractive is because of the socio-economic role of women who have traditionally been quite active. With the increase in women's income, I am sure, they will spend more money on beauty and cosmetics. I think this is going to happen very quickly. [WT] Specifically, what aspects of beauty consumption expenditure should we pay attention to in Vietnam? [DH] As in other countries, Vietnamese women spend their money in purchasing home care cosmetics products and/or in getting treatments at beauty salons. For home care products, the preference for whitening function or sunscreen is high due to the nature of Vietnam climate. But the problem is that they are very interested in cosmetics, but there are not many people who have enough knowledge about exactly what products to use and how to use them. So the beauty market in Vietnam is characterized by a lot of skin care shops in each neighborhood. Consumers want to receive cosmetics from these shops and receive professional treatment from them. However, there are not many skincare shops that have mastered the techniques to fully understand the products and use them effectively. Of course, I think there will be many improvements over time. [WT] At this point, what parts of Vietnam skin care shops should focus on to evolve themselves? [DH] In a word, differentiation. Many shops now offer similar products and similar services. In order for shops to evolve and be competitive, they must have differentiated technology. If you simply sell cosmetics on the market, you cannot win the competition. And it is also important to have good products to gain trust. In short, arming with good products and good skills is the basis for differentiation, and I think more customers will come to these well-organized shops. [WT] I hear that you are planning to open your skincare shop yourself. Could you elaborate in detail? [DH] Yes, I am currently in contact with various agencies in Korea to provide services that Vietnam consumers really want. I would like to choose an institution that can provide a good selection of products and continue to provide skin care related technology. The key to this plan is to build a solid platform for reliably supporting existing skincare shop operators and new start-ups. I plan to open my first shop by the end of this year. [WT] Thank you for many good comments. Finally, what does the company name S.H.E mean? S.H.E. stands for Safety, High Technology, and Effectiveness. The purpose is to provide customers with a safe product with the latest technology to ensure maximum effectiveness. This name is the company's future mission as well.

[Hot in Vietnam] The Spa at The Reverie Saigon
- ▲ Reception of The Spa at The Reverie Saigon (Photo Courtesy of The Reverie Saigon) Vietnam’s most exclusive city spa, The Spa at The Reverie Saigon, is a studied melding of sophisticated, urban luxury and a decidedly European-inspired setting. Together with the Fitness Centre, The Spa encompasses 1,200 square metres (12,900 square feet) over two floors and features 10 treatment rooms – four dual-bedded suites and six for individual therapies. The comprehensive spa menu is a celebration of holistic relaxation and rejuvenation, with treatments that draw from the depths of Southeast Asian spa traditions as well as Western-inspired aromatherapy treatments. The result is a poised balance of East and West. Well-being treatments include rejuvenating facials, foot scrubs, soothing massages and body polishes with a particular focus on techniques and ingredients from Vietnam and Thailand. However you’ll also find exotic elements like seaweed harvested from the Atlantic, pink salt from the Himalayas and mud from the Amazon in the diverse range of therapies, by ila, Voya, and The Spa’s own signature creations. Signature treatments created by The Reverie Saigon highlight The Spa’s seamless integration of luxury and leisure. The Legend of the Peony elevates every aspect of a spa experience, from limousine pick-up within Saigon to a bouquet of peonies, caviar and a bottle of champagne upon arrival. The lavish treatment itself blends an invigorating honey and red wine body scrub with a soothing candlelit massage. Spa canapés and a chocolate gift set complete the three-hour experience. The two-hour Reverie Harmony is a relaxing ritual performed by two therapists. Four hands work in unison to soothe the entire body. The treatment concludes with a customised facial and a simultaneous head and foot massage, leaving the mind uplifted, the body energised and the skin delightfully fragrant. The 90- or 120-minute Reverie Fusion draws inspiration from the East with the use of bamboo to warm muscles and stimulate the nervous system before long, wide ‘butterfly’ strokes are applied to sooth, release tension and promote internal balance. ▲ Treatment Room - The Spa at The Reverie Saigon (Photo Courtesy of The Reverie Saigon)Contact Information Address: 22-36 Nguyen Hue Boulevard, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

[Hot in Vietnam] The Grand Spa, an Idyllic Seaside Escape in Southern Vietnam
- ▲ The Spa at The Grand Ho Tram StripThe Spa at The Grand Ho Tram Strip in southern Vietnam was our escape for this year’s Valentine’s Day weekend, which was also Vietnam’s lunar new year - Tết . The Grand Ho Tram Strip is a jewel, an integrated casino resort found on the pristine, windswept beaches of the East Sea. Located in Vũng Tàu, it is truly an oasis two hours away from the bustling city-life of Ho Chi Minh City. Along with The Spa, the property offers a championship golf course, restaurants, a top-rated nightclub and the largest casino in Vietnam. My wife (Erny) and I were were very surprised at the quality of the Spa and particularly the professionalism of all staff we encountered. Our care was in good hands from the time we entered reception, the locker rooms and throughout the full spa experience. As we were escorted into the spacious spa suite, we found the tranquil atmosphere to be a much needed sanctuary from the busy casino and nightclub we experienced the night before. Both of our therapists were highly qualified, using massage techniques that we found to be unique to The Spa. The care they exhibited in their touch allowed our pains and concerns of daily life to be easily swept-away. Flying in from Beijing the day before, we found their care to be the perfect cure for jet lag. Losing track of time, it was quite easy for us to drift off during the couple’s signature massage. For guests flying in, The Spa offers the chance to unwind from lengthy travel. For those who have spent the day on the golf course, The Spa offers a chance to unwind after a day of fitness. For those coming in from the beach, The Spa allows the guest to extend their full day of leisure. Complimenting the treatment was the wonderful panoramic view we had from the treatment room -- the sea, the beaches and the resort’s pool. It was truly the highlight of our weekend getaway.
