Last month, friends of French beauty powerhouse Sothys gathered in Sydney for the brand’s Le Symposium 2024. It had been five years since Sothys had held their annual Symposium as a result of the pandemic.
Salon owners and managers were treated to a jam-packed day of talks, networking meals, hosted by the Sothys Australia team. Some partnering clinics in attendance have been with the brand for close to 40 years.
Jeffrey Daley, Sothys Paris’ Australian agent welcomed guests and introduced the day’s proceedings.
Menopause Wellness Coach and Nutritional Medicine Practitioner, Chiza Westcarr gave a talk on menopause and its effect on the skin and cells of the body. Chiza also revealed she is set to launch a new elixir targeting inflammation.
Following a morning coffee break, Sothys’ new Illuminating line and professional treatment were presented, as well as some of the brand’s new clinical formulas. The team also previewed new products set to launch throughout 2024.
After lunch, Nicole Montgomery of The Aesthetic & Beauty Industry Council (ABIC) presented a segment on optimising social media. This was then followed by a talk from salon business coach, Faye Murray on how to inspire your team.
During the day, a speech was made in recognition of Bernard Mass, creator of the modern Sothys company, who passed away last year.

The event concluded with the presentation of the Sothys Longevity Awards, which seeks to recognise outstanding Sothys therapists and individuals. Guests enjoyed cocktails and glasses of champagne to celebrate.
