Largest category marketing investment in 15 years supports Desert diamonds’ debut in Asia, opening a brilliant new chapter for natural diamonds
SHANGHAI, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 30 July 2026 – De Beers Group hosted the Desert diamonds Asia launch event in Shanghai on 29th July, marking the official arrival of the Desert diamonds beacon in China, embodying the spirit of “authenticity, individuality and inner radiance”. This is the first new beacon launched by the Group in over a decade. Backed by its largest category marketing investment in 15 years, the campaign champions a renewed perspective for natural diamonds and aims to unite the industry, further underscoring the strategic role of China in shaping future demand for natural diamonds and supporting the industry’s long-term growth.
De Beers Group Desert diamonds Asia launch event in Shanghai.; Lynn Serfaty, General Manager of Natural Diamonds at De Beers Group, delivers an inspiring address in an interactive session with wellness coach Lear Tsui.
First unveiled in 2025 at the JCK Las Vegas Show, the Desert diamonds beacon marks a new chapter in the celebration of natural diamonds. Drawing inspiration from the desert landscapes that echo the ancient desert routes of Dunhuang and the lingering charm of the Silk Road, Desert diamonds pays tribute to the untamed authenticity of natural diamonds, celebrating a spectrum of colours from warm whites to champagne tones and amber hues. Desert diamonds jewellery has been seen on international stages – worn by celebrities such as Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Bad Bunny, Doja Cat, and Aryna Sabalenka. By bringing the beacon to China, De Beers Group aims to meet the growing consumer demand for self-reward, emotional gifting, and milestone celebrations — reaffirming the enduring desirability of natural diamonds for a new generation of consumers.
Departing from traditional jewellery marketing, De Beers Group has creatively invited “Real People” to interpret the unique allure of Desert diamonds. These “Real People” are not celebrities or professional models, but pioneering individuals from diverse fields who dare to pursue authenticity and illuminate their individuality through their own stories. They vividly embody the authenticity, individuality and inner radiance that Desert diamonds represent, through their personal journeys. This groundbreaking approach forges a deeper resonance between natural diamonds and genuine emotions, echoing today’s consumer desire for sincere and diverse narratives.
Lynn Serfaty, General Manager, Natural Diamonds, De Beers Group, said, “From red carpets to everyday life, consumers want a natural diamond that tells their personal story – a unique symbol for life’s most precious moments. Following its global success, we are confident in bringing Desert diamonds, a natural inspiration from the desert to China.”
She added: “Our research shows that Desert diamonds resonate strongly with Chinese consumers: 95% desire to own them, 94% find them distinctive, and 96% consider them innovative. Consumers increasingly see jewellery as a key expression of emotional connection and self-affirmation. The authenticity, individuality and inner radiance they seek are the soul of Desert diamonds. I’m delighted to see the industry is uniting to reignite passion for natural diamonds and shape a brilliant future.”
Desert diamond “Real People” features stand-up comedian Liu Yang, Peking Opera performer Guo Yu’ang, racing driver Shi Wei, and wellness coach Lear Tsui.
Departing from conventional advertising fronted by celebrities, De Beers Group has for the first time selected four “Real People” through authentic storytelling, breaking away from the traditional celebrity endorsement model. Each of them interprets the campaign’s theme — “Authenticity” — through their unique life stories: embracing every mark of life with truth, the singular stance of being born one of a kind, and the brilliant light that shines from deep within.
In China, consumers are increasingly drawn to jewellery that is authentic, rare, and everlasting — a clear shift toward self-expression through pieces that reflect authenticity, individuality, and inner radiance. De Beers Group observes that today’s consumers seek not only the timelessness of natural diamonds but also designs that are distinctive, personal, and value-driven — Desert diamonds perfectly embodies this exceptional realm of effortless refinement.
Chow Tai Fook, Chow Sang Sang and TSL | Tse Sui Luen present exquisite jewellery designs inspired by the colours and spirit of the desert landscape.
Leading retailers Chow Tai Fook, Chow Sang Sang and TSL | Tse Sui Luen, which are the strategic partners of the Desert diamonds campaign, have been developing collections that showcase the desert-inspired palette, underscoring the industry’s strong confidence in the campaign. The retailers will debut their Desert diamonds jewellery collections at the launch and lend their firm support to the campaign in future marketing initiatives.
Created to resonate with a new generation, this campaign targets young consumers through a holistic media and digital strategy. Today’s young consumers are proudly embracing tradition, finding meaning in their cultural roots. The creative storytelling parallels each diamond’s natural journey with the wearer’s own path, allowing the authenticity, individuality and inner radiance of Desert diamonds to strike a chord, and reinforcing that every Desert diamond and every individual is one of a kind. This narrative also echoes a timeless legacy of diamonds as the indestructible stone, a symbol of resilience and everlasting brilliance, and qualities this generation deeply admires. The campaign will steadily ramp up marketing investment, harnessing robust media and social influence to establish Desert Diamonds as the preferred choice of discerning consumers.
Beyond engaging consumers and retailers, the Desert diamonds campaign supports national efforts to drive quality consumption and product innovation. It aligns with the Shopping in China initiative, which promotes high-quality goods with strong provenance, traceability and sustainability. De Beers Group is leveraging the launch to drive natural diamond category education in China and champion premium natural diamond jewellery. With a focus on brand building, quality assurance, product innovation and sustainable development, Desert diamonds provides Chinese consumers with a trustworthy, high-quality choice, supporting the high-quality development of China’s consumer market and the initiative’s goal of stimulating domestic consumption.
Building on its global momentum, Desert diamonds has become a powerful cultural phenomenon. In the U.S., it has captured attention on red carpets and through high-profile celebrity engagements, with warm-toned diamonds growing increasingly visible across fashion, music, and entertainment. Retailers who took part in the initial U.S. campaign reported higher foot traffic and a surge in enquiries tied to life milestones – clear signs of growing consumer desire for these naturally warm diamonds at life’s defining moments. By drawing a parallel to the wearer’s own journey, the campaign positions Desert diamonds not just as gems, but as emotional keepsakes rooted in the earth and elegant symbols of true individuality and enduring meaning.

The new skincare system brings together FDA-cleared, NASA-inspired light technology, complementary formulations and award-winning patented design by Karim Rashid, following a Hong Kong launch attended by more than 2,000 guests
HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 21 July 2026 – TELOSIN has introduced “The Dual Transformation,” a new approach to personalised at-home skincare built around two dedicated light-based beauty devices—the Y PRO Red and Y PRO Blue—and the complementary Lumiactive Collection.
The launch brings together advanced light-based technology, targeted skincare formulations and award-winning patented design created in collaboration with internationally acclaimed designer Karim Rashid.
Rather than incorporating multiple generalised modes within a single device, TELOSIN developed two distinct devices and two dedicated skincare pathways.
Y PRO Red is designed for a rejuvenation-focused skincare routine, supporting the appearance of firmness, texture and radiance.
Y PRO Blue is designed for routines focused on blemish-prone, oily or visibly unsettled skin.
The devices combine FDA-cleared technology with light-based innovation inspired by scientific developments associated with NASA research.
Introducing the Lumiactive Collection
The Y PRO devices are accompanied by the new Lumiactive Collection, comprising:
LUMIRED Red LED Treatment Gel
LUMIBLUE Blue LED Treatment Gel
Blue Light Defense Cream
Together, the devices and complementary formulations establish TELOSIN’s connected Prepare, Treat, Protect approach to skincare.
The dedicated Lumiactive treatment gels are designed to prepare the skin for the corresponding Y PRO routine, while Blue Light Defense Cream completes the ritual as part of the brand’s wider daily skincare approach.
By developing the devices and formulations as one connected collection, TELOSIN aims to make advanced light-based skincare easier to understand, personalise and incorporate into regular at-home routines.
The result is a complete ecosystem built around two targeted transformations: a red-light pathway focused on rejuvenation and a blue-light pathway focused on skin clarity and balance.
Scientific Insight Behind TELOSIN
TELOSIN has expanded the scientific conversation surrounding the launch through its expert video series, “The Science Behind Telosin,” available on the brand’s website.
The series features expert perspectives from two medical professionals:
Dr. Omer Wolf, MD, a specialist in plastic and reconstructive surgery and advanced facial aesthetic procedures.
Dr. Uri Berger, MD, a specialist in aesthetic medicine with extensive international medical training and experience.
Through the expert series, TELOSIN provides consumers with accessible information about the principles behind light-based skincare and the evolving relationship between professional aesthetic knowledge, beauty technology and at-home routines.
The inclusion of medical perspectives within the wider educational programme reflects TELOSIN’s commitment to supporting product innovation through informed scientific discussion and responsible consumer education.
Award-Winning Patented Design by Karim Rashid
The Y PRO Red and Y PRO Blue were created in collaboration with Karim Rashid, one of the world’s most recognised contemporary designers.
The devices feature award-winning patented design that combines Rashid’s distinctive visual language with TELOSIN’s advanced beauty technology.
Their fluid silhouettes, individual colour identities and ergonomic forms were developed not simply to contain sophisticated technology, but to transform the devices into desirable contemporary objects that can become a natural part of the user’s daily beauty environment.
The collaboration reflects TELOSIN’s belief that advanced skincare devices should deliver a sophisticated combination of performance, simplicity, comfort and emotional connection.
“The Dual Transformation” Unveiled to More Than 2,000 Guests in Hong Kong
The complete collection was officially presented on 30 June 2026 through “The Dual Transformation,” an immersive launch experience held at WTC Mall in Hong Kong.
The large-scale event welcomed more than 2,000 guests, including consumers, members of the Hong Kong media, influencers, beauty industry professionals and invited partners.
The launch featured internationally acclaimed designer Karim Rashid, MIRROR member Ian Chan, celebrated actress and singer Linda Chung, and Dr. Harvey Ho.
Karim Rashid introduced the creative thinking behind the award-winning patented design of the devices, while Dr. Harvey Ho discussed the different applications and skincare pathways associated with red and blue light technology.
Ian Chan and Linda Chung joined the launch presentation to experience the two routines and demonstrate how the Y PRO devices and complementary Lumiactive formulations can be incorporated into contemporary at-home skincare.
“The Dual Transformation demonstrates that advanced beauty technology does not need to feel clinical or complicated,” said Dr. Harvey Ho.
“By bringing together two dedicated light-based devices with complementary Lumiactive formulations, TELOSIN has created a more focused and intuitive approach to at-home skincare. The distinction between the red and blue light pathways also helps consumers better understand how different technologies can support different skincare needs.”
With more than 2,000 guests attending, the event marked a major public introduction of TELOSIN’s broader product ecosystem: two targeted devices, three complementary skincare formulations and one connected approach to personalised light-based skincare.
A Complete Dual Skincare System
With Y PRO Red, Y PRO Blue and the Lumiactive Collection, TELOSIN is introducing more than two individual beauty devices.
“The Dual Transformation” represents a complete skincare system built around clearly defined objectives, dedicated formulations and award-winning patented design.
It reflects the brand’s wider ambition to make sophisticated light-based technology more personalised, intuitive and accessible, while maintaining the premium design experience expected by contemporary beauty consumers.

Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and a group of institutional investors have bought a 7.3 per cent stake in Corona Remedies for ₹777 crore, marking a sizeable secondary market transaction in the Ahmedabad-based drugmaker months after its stock market debut.
The shares changed hands through block deals on the National Stock Exchange, with the transaction executed at ₹1,730 a share. The deal involved about 44.9 lakh shares, with private equity investor ChrysCapital, through its affiliate Sepia Investments, and Anchor Partners selling part of their holdings. ADIA bought 39,130 shares, while other buyers included Aberdeen Group, Factory Mutual Insurance Company, HDFC Mutual Fund, Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund, Ashoka WhiteOak and other funds.
Corona Remedies’ shares rose nearly 3 per cent after the transaction, trading around ₹1,840 on the NSE, as the market read the entry of large domestic and overseas institutions as a vote of confidence in the company’s branded formulations business. The block deal valued the stake at a premium to the company’s public issue price band of ₹1,008-₹1,062 a share in December 2025, underlining the strong post-listing performance of the stock.
Sepia Investments sold 43.28 lakh shares, equal to about 7.07 per cent of Corona Remedies’ equity, for around ₹748.9 crore. Anchor Partners offloaded 1.61 lakh shares, or 0.26 per cent, for about ₹28 crore. Sepia’s stake fell to 12.69 per cent from 19.76 per cent after the sale, while the wider ownership base brought more institutional depth to the company’s shareholder register.
The transaction is also a partial exit for early financial investors who backed Corona Remedies before its public listing. For buyers, the attraction lies in a domestic formulations franchise with established brands across women’s healthcare, cardio-diabeto, pain management, urology and other therapeutic categories. The company has positioned itself in segments with higher repeat prescription potential and relatively stronger pricing resilience than low-margin commodity generics.
Corona Remedies reported revenue growth of about 17 per cent in the financial year ended March 2026, while profit after tax rose about 33 per cent. Its full-year revenue crossed ₹1,400 crore, supported by growth in chronic and sub-chronic therapies, brand-led marketing and wider distribution. The company’s earlier public offer was entirely an offer for sale, meaning the proceeds went to existing shareholders rather than to the company.
The drugmaker was ranked among the top 30 pharmaceutical companies in the domestic pharmaceutical market by sales before its listing. Women’s healthcare is one of its strongest verticals, followed by cardio-diabeto, pain management and urology. Its brand portfolio includes products targeted at specialist doctors, a strategy that has helped it command higher prescription visibility in selected therapies.
The stake purchase comes at a time when pharmaceutical companies with strong domestic franchises are drawing investor interest. Companies focused on branded formulations have benefited from rising healthcare consumption, deeper insurance penetration, higher diagnosis rates for chronic conditions and stronger prescription volumes in urban and semi-urban markets. The domestic pharmaceutical market has also been less exposed to some of the pricing and regulatory volatility faced by export-heavy generic drugmakers.
ADIA’s participation fits a broader pattern of Gulf sovereign capital seeking exposure to healthcare, pharmaceuticals, financial services, infrastructure and consumer platforms across growth markets. The Abu Dhabi fund has built a diversified global portfolio and has been active in private equity, listed equities, real estate and alternatives. Its entry into Corona Remedies, though modest in percentage terms, adds to institutional interest in healthcare businesses with predictable cash flows and long-term demand visibility.
For Corona Remedies, the deal improves public float quality and may support market liquidity. Greater institutional ownership can also bring closer scrutiny of margins, product concentration, compliance, capital allocation and future acquisition strategy. The company’s next phase will be measured against its ability to maintain growth while protecting profitability in a market where promotional expenses, field-force productivity and doctor engagement remain critical.
The transaction also highlights how block deals have become an important route for private equity funds to monetise stakes after listings. Rather than waiting for gradual market sales, large shareholders can exit or pare exposure through negotiated exchange transactions that allow institutional buyers to acquire sizeable positions in a single trading window. Such deals can reduce overhang when executed cleanly, though they also put focus on valuation sustainability after the initial market response.
Abu Dhabi Investment Authority has emerged among institutional buyers in a ₹777 crore open-market transaction involving a 7.3 per cent stake in Corona Remedies, marking another Gulf-linked investment in the country’s fast-growing listed pharmaceutical space. The transaction was executed through block deals on the National Stock Exchange at ₹1,730 per share, with shares sold mainly by Sepia Investments, an affiliate of ChrysCapital, and Anchor Partners. ADIA purchased […]

Galaxy Macau and GalaxyArt – world-class integrated resort and arts platform – continuously offer forward-thinking experiences. I am deeply honoured to present my exhibition here, which is not only a sharing of my personal artistic endeavours at this stage, but also a way to contribute to the popularisation of art.”
Structured around four thematic expressions, the exhibition unfolds a poetic journey through light, form and emotion. “Luminosity · The Spirit of Nature” captures the ethereal beauty of living beings, distilling their essence into luminous, crystallised forms that reflect the pure vibrancy of living creatures. “Luminosity · The Glow of Modernity” presents whimsical perfection and unlimited possibilities seen in fairy tales through light and shadows, creating striking, avant-garde visual narratives.
In “Luminosity – Beyond Void & Form,” the serene elegance of Zen philosophy is reinterpreted through a delicate interplay of classical and modern aesthetics, while “Luminosity – Flowing like Water” evokes fluidity and abundance, expressing grace, balance and openness.
A Vivid Transformation into Luminous Clarity
‘Ethereal Flow’, which includes a striking aerial installation and inspired by Laozi’s philosophy—evoking water’s quiet virtue of nurturing all without contention through a dazzling, immersive visual experience.
“Ethereal Flow” — a contemporary, fashion-forward series that includes a large-scale aerial installation – is the highlight in the “Luminosity · Flowing like Water” section series. Inspired by a classic passage from Laozi’s Tao Te Ching— “The highest goodness is like water; water benefits all things without contention, embodying the virtue of humility”—the work reflects the idea that true virtue, like water, nurtures and sustains all without striving. With its dynamic sense of scale and dazzling visual impact, the installation invites audiences to reflect on reality and the nature of humanity.
Ethereal Stone: A Modern Table – 4.2-metre-long and only eight pieces in the world – draws inspiration from the classic anecdote of Mi Fu reverently addressing a scholar’s rock, reflecting the deep-rooted Chinese tradition of stone appreciation and its unique cultural heritage.
“Ethereal Stone” and “Timeless Dialogue: Taihu Stone” is a collection of four pieces at the “Luminosity – Beyond Void & Form” section. The works draw inspiration from the classic anecdote of Mi Fu reverently addressing a scholar’s rock, reflecting the deep-rooted Chinese tradition of stone appreciation and its unique cultural heritage. Centred on the intricate beauty of Taihu stones, the works reinterpret their delicate, sculptural forms through a contemporary lens. By bringing traditional culture into dialogue with modern artistic expression, the series creates a poetic exchange across time. It also serves as a gentle reflection for today’s fast-paced society—encouraging a return to inner contemplation, and a rediscovery of cultural identity and humanistic spirit through the philosophies of Chinese tradition.
“Dazzling Galaxy – Crystalline Art Exhibition” – open now until September 13 at GalaxyArt – invites visitors to immerse themselves in a radiant convergence of innovation, culture and artistry, further enriching Galaxy Macau’s dynamic cultural landscape and reaffirming the award-winning luxury resort’s commitment to world-class creative experiences.

Moving from single-project development to an ecosystem of mutual win-win, this partnership will significantly enhance the delivery efficiency of green energy across Hong Kong, Macau, and the Southeast Asian region, setting a brand-new benchmark for regional zero-carbon smart transportation.
As a subsidiary of Wing Lee, Wing Kai New Energy has been rooted in Hong Kong since its inception while radiating its presence globally, deeply cultivating sustainable clean energy solutions. Addressing the acute pain points in the Greater Bay Area and Southeast Asian markets, where rapid fluctuations in energy prices have led to surging cost pressures for logistics distribution enterprises, Wing Kai New Energy will focus on urban distribution logistics battery swapping businesses in the future. The company plans to integrate site resources, infrastructure, and operations to fill the gap in regional infrastructure. We firmly believe that this cooperation will effectively bridge the cross-border green energy eco-link, accelerate the construction of a green energy service network, and contribute solidly to the realization of the “dual carbon” goals. Meanwhile, we sincerely invite more partners to join the Zero-Carbon Smart Alliance to jointly advance sustainable development.

Scientists have identified a vast fan-shaped geological structure buried beneath East Antarctica, linking several major subglacial basins into one coherent system that may influence how the continent’s ice sheet moves and responds to warming. The structure, named the East Antarctic Fan-shaped Basin Province, lies under ice more than three kilometres thick in places. It brings together features long studied separately, including the Wilkes Basin, Aurora Basin and […]
Gas engine manufacturer Innio has raised $2.43 billion in a US initial public offering, pricing an upsized share sale at the top of its marketed range as investors continue to chase companies tied to the electricity demands of artificial intelligence.

NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory has moved mission-critical IT infrastructure to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, strengthening the computing foundation behind deep space operations as robotic missions place rising demands on data handling, resilience and automation. The migration gives JPL a unified platform for running traditional virtual machines alongside containerised applications, allowing teams to modernise core workloads without forcing an abrupt break from legacy systems that support highly specialised […]
Solar physicists have identified a hidden change inside the Sun that could force a reassessment of how space-weather models track the solar cycle, after helioseismology data showed magnetic activity becoming progressively more confined near the visible surface. A long-running study using the Birmingham Solar-Oscillations Network found that the Sun’s internal acoustic waves have been carrying signals that diverge from standard surface measures, including sunspot counts and 10.7-centimetre […]
Paris Hilton and journalist Laurie Segall have launched a 14-part TikTok investigation that names a Canadian pharmacist linked to MrDeepFakes, the shuttered website that became one of the world’s largest hubs for non-consensual AI-generated explicit videos. The series, Searching for Mr. Deepfakes, began streaming on Hilton’s TikTok channel on 27 May and follows Segall’s multi-year effort to identify the people behind the site. It places fresh public […]
