US professional skin care company Topix has acquired spa brand ClairtyRX.
Launched in 2003 and based in California, ClarityRX specialises in plant-based formulations. The purchase will allow the brand to accelerate its NPD goals and to ramp up esthetician training.
Founders Karla Keene and Darcie Crandall will continue to lead ClarityRX.
Brenda Wu, CEO of Topix, said: “ClarityRx is a highly differentiated, modern brand that delivers what today’s discerning consumers are seeking, the best of science and nature.
“We see tremendous potential in ClarityRx and are eager to further support the brand and their customers, including the over 400 Hand & Stone franchises.”
Andre Moura, Chairman of the Topix board, added: “For over 35 years, Topix has worked with the leading dermatologists in the US, including the largest multi-office practices, to deliver results for their patients while also providing them with the tools to build their own businesses. “We look forward to the opportunity to bring the same customer-centric focus to the professional spa market.”
