MONTREAL, March 25, 2015 /CNW Telbec/ - Canadian cosmeceutical brand NeoStrata teams up with women's activewear brand Lolë as Collaborating Partner for their infamous 2015 Lolë White Tour. NeoStrata will be the only skin care partner for the Tour and actively participating in their Canadian events this summer.

As one of the only dermatological cosmetic lines to develop their products in Canada, NeoStrata empowers women across the country to feel confident and beautiful in their own skin. With more and more emphasis on natural beauty, Sanofi Consumer Health, through its skin care brand NeoStrata, wants to bring its movement of creating products that directly address skin concerns and promote healthy skin, to the forefront. Just like taking care of your body and eating well, skin care should also be a part of a healthy, active lifestyle, and the collaboration with Lolë will allow NeoStrata to connect and engage directly with its audience.

"We are delighted to be working with another Canadian brand to help promote a healthy and active lifestyle," says Pascal Leduc, National Commercial Director, Sanofi Consumer Health. "NeoStrata and Lolë share so much of the same values of catering to women who actively seek well-being and the confidence to feel good in their own skin."

The 2015 Lolë White Tour is a series of unforgettable yoga events that will take place in major cities across Canada. Uniting thousands of people, all dressed in white as a symbol of peace, each stop promises to be a unique and vibrant experience for both the body and soul, guided by renowned yoga instructors and set to the soothing sounds of inspiring musicians.

NeoStrata will be joining Lolë at all Canadian locations, giving yogis and yoginis the opportunity to discover its wide array of skin care products catered to Canadian women. As Collaborating Partner of the 2015 Lolë White Tour, NeoStrata will be included in various marketing activations, including a booth presence at every event and cross-promotions at the retail level, giving NeoStrata a significant amount of visibility.

"Lolë is more than an activewear brand, it's a lifestyle" says Nathalie Binda, V.P. Marketing at Lolë. "Our commitment to getting people moving never stops and it is our mission to encourage, motivate and gather people together to light up their lives, their world and their environment. The Lolë White Tour is grounded in the brand's core principles: community, well-being, an active lifestyle and sharing!"

Lolë will also be featuring their new collection at an exclusive fashion show presented by NeoStrata, at World MasterCard Fashion Week in Toronto on March 26.
