Deep Dive into the Topic of Formulating
A total of 19 presentations, panel discussions and main stage interviews will take a deep dive into the topic of formulating in the climate change age.
Andrew McDougall, associate director – Beauty & Personal Care at Mintel, will present a session on

Another session not to miss will be led by Neil Cunningham, founder & CEO, School of Industrial Rheology.

Finally, Barbara Olioso, founder of The Green Chemist Consultancy, will invite attendees to join her on the journey to Cosmetic preservation in the climate change age. She will share her belief that as people’s skin is becoming more sensitive manufacturers will use lower preservative levels, combined with natural multifunctional cosmetic ingredients or using only multifunctional ingredients.
