Formulations | In all areas of the cosmetics industry – even in the mass market – customers’ desire for individualised products is becoming increasingly important. From the brands’ point of view, there are various ways to meet this. Lorraine Denois presents the Blend It Yourself trend.
Traceability | The ability to track individual products as they make their way through the supply chain provides security and builds trust with the customer. Companies achieve this by providing each product with a unique digital identity.
Packaging | If you want to produce in a climate-neutral way, you must make some efforts. Dagmar Chlosta talks about concrete measures and why plastic is nevertheless not (yet) indispensable.
Formulations | Fluffy or creamy foams offer a pleasant feeling on the skin during application. Sprays allow for an even distribution of the formulation over a large area. No wonder they are popular with customers. We present a selection of formulations for sprays and foams.
Processes | The effects of our fast-paced times are also evident in the cosmetics market. Those who can react at short notice are quicker to meet customers’ wishes. Walter Klein explains how optimising production can work.
Anti-counterfeiting | Especially in the field of premium cosmetics, brands want to protect their high-quality products from theft and counterfeiting. Sealing the packaging is the most common solution here. Dominik Korsten and Marc Buettgenbach present a new process that is sustainable, secure, and noble at the same time
Facilities | Environmentally friendly slogans or an animal welfare seal have not been enough for a long time. In the cosmetics industry, sustainable packaging is also playing an increasingly vital role. Daniel Traub explains how consumer demands and market challenges can be met, as well as the requirements of recyclers.
Not all peptides are the same. That is why it is important to know what peptides are, how they work and what they do. In addition, Dr Larissa Legewie explains the small but subtle differences between these biomimetic messengers.
Many companies are committed to sustainability. However, in the daily implementation, the approaches differ significantly. Charlotte d’Erceville-Dumond talks about company philosophy and concrete projects that have an impact far beyond the company’s boundaries.
In addition to manufacturers, consumers are also becoming increasingly concerned with the ingredients used in cosmetic products. Kayla Villena knows how this trend came about and how it affects the use of functional ingredients in formulations.
The skin of an adult human being has a total area of 1.8 square metres on average. Plenty of space for good personal care products. After all, body care has long been regarded by customers as an important part of their daily beauty and well-being routine. This selection reflects current market trends.
Ingredients derived from hemp and cannabis are becoming increasingly popular. As with many natural ingredients, there are weak points in the production process. The production of cannabinoids through fermentation processes in the laboratory makes it possible to ensure consistent quality in a sustainable way without the need for the cannabis sativa plant.
In the past two years, manufacturers and formulators have repeatedly worried that supply chain problems would restrict or even paralyse production. And the current situation does not necessarily promise relief on the raw materials market either. Julie Carnes knows these problems and how to prepare for them as well as possible.
