Last June, Global Bioenergies announced the launch of 'LAST' a unique "longwear" cosmetics label dedicated to producing high-quality products formulated to achieve long-hold performance. More specifically, the brand offers one-of-a-kind waterproof, "transfer-resistant" eye makeup made from 90% natural ingredients.
Key to the brand's long-hold formulas is its use of renewable isododecane, a colorless liquid hydrocarbon that works to provide LAST's products with the proprieties necessary to achieve long-lasting performance. Currently, the brand is offering products within three main categories: eye shadows, mascara, and eyebrow mascaras.
“From biotech to beauty…we have taken a big leap forward. LAST® is both a technological achievement, a bold commitment to the environmental transition, and a celebration of colours. Our colours stand out. This means the brand can stand tall and live up to its claims: Colours that last," said Romain Desfresnes, head of strategy, marketing and communications at LAST.
