The World Beauty issue highlights models from Japan, China, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, South Korea, South Africa, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, England, Mexico and more.

Said SCI president and CEO Steven Casciola, "Barnes & Noble tells us our current issue, featuring an All-American theme, has already outsold the previous issue and two weeks of shelf life still remain. That means we're getting noticed on the newsstands, which translates into stronger sales and increased brand awareness. Many of our advertisers have commented on the excellent front row placement Salon City is receiving, where one typically sees Vogue, Elle, Vanity Fair and Oprah. This is quite an achievement in 150 days. We're confident that the World Beauty issue will be one of the most successful to date, and will set the stage for continued growth and expansion."
