Innovation is at the heart of our business, to offer customers a differentiating experience. From idea to realization, there are many stages in the company’s development. How does innovation work at ALPOL Cosmétique? How do we create the positive impacts of tomorrow to serve the beauty market?

While many nations are growing older, beauty ideals are still often associated with flawless, youthful, and sometimes unattainable appearances. Across brands, a smooth and youthful complexion, and silky blond or brunette hair are the beauty ideals that are in the spotlight, even though most consumers feel they cannot realistically meet those ideals.

BEAUTYSTREAMS consistently seeks to push the boundaries of the beauty industry in order to align with societal changes and explores new paths to address consumers, taking into consideration specific age-related needs from infancy, through puberty, young adulthood, menopause and andropause, all the way through late adulthood and higher age. Join Elodie Vicini, BEAUTYSTREAMS Market Manager France, in exploring how to address age in evolutionary ways and discover emerging initiatives and striking niche product examples that illustrate this contemporary and forward-looking approach to age.

As wellness, beauty and health become one, and consumers increasingly take control of their lives in a quest for optimization and longevity, the latest scientific discoveries, new technologies and colossal investments by key market players offer fascinating insights into the future of beauty and wellness.

Adélaïde LOHIO, founder of L’OBSERVATOIRE BEAUTÉ, will begin by zooming in on the latest advances, innovations and trends, with a strong emphasis on biohacking, which aims to control one’s biology to optimize physical, mental and spiritual performance. Increasingly popular, this movement, driven by revolutionary technologies such as AI, biofeedbacks, nanotechnologies, genetic therapies… opens up an infinite field of possibilities. She will be zooming in on the scientific discoveries and “disruptive” technologies that will reshape our future to the point where we believe in the possibility of an “unaltered self”.

Animated by the desire to share knowledge, Adelaïde will give you the keys to making informed decisions. Knowing these advances means anticipating consumer expectations and already starting to work on the innovations that will revolutionize beauty over the next 10 years.

Firstly, Euphoria, or positive beauty, with highly creative product experiences and pleasure-boosting sensoriality. Then Pure, or conscious beauty, a minimalist routine, natural formulas with minimal impact on the planet. Finally, High-tech or active beauty, formulas with on-board technologies that make them truly effective.

All these ultra-sensorial, eco-designed creations (green Yuka, high naturalness scores, high biodegradability) are your source of inspiration!

In a context where mental health is at the forefront, where the links between skin, brain and the nervous system are increasingly well understood, and where the impact of emotions on dermatological diseases and skin quality is no longer up for debate, advances in neuroscience and neurotechnology in beauty and wellness products offer an ever-wider field for growth and innovation to help consumers manage their emotions and stress levels:

– Formulas containing ingredients designed to act at the neurological level, beyond the skin’s surface, to stimulate happy hormones and improve overall well-being: adaptogens, peptides….

– Technologies such as bioresonance, electroencephalogram, neurotransmitters, neurofeedback…

– Beauty/therapy rituals combining skincare and ancestral rituals: mental coaching, sophrology, circadian rhythm, lunar cycle, astrology…

As the demand for personalized products continues to grow, the global neurocosmetics market promises to experience dazzling growth over the next few years, with a CAGR of 8.4% from 2023 to 2030 (source: SkyQuest), and offers unique opportunities for the future of beauty and well-being.

Regulatory changes and growing consumer concern for the environment mean that we need to rethink the design/formulation of suncare products. After a presentation of the suncare market in France, Europe and the rest of the world, we will review current regulations and the status of chemical and mineral filters, and present our solutions with concrete examples.

The FEBEA’s “Pastic Act” was launched in 2021, with the aim of setting the entire industry on the road to decarbonization. The objectives set for the entire sector by 2025 are ambitious, such as a 15% reduction in the use of plastics in packaging, in favor of sustainable packaging thanks to eco-design and the use of new materials.

So, at the halfway point, how do things stand?

An update from our speaker at the LUXE PACK trade show.

After several months of research, Laboratoires BIOTIC Phocea have developed the Peel-off Mask, a water-free formula in the form of a balm rather than a powder. At home, consumers simply mix their mask with water, and the peel-off takes shape! This development is also in line with a major market trend: “Do It Yourself”!
