Gotha Cosmetics unveils Neuroaura, a new range where science and beauty converge. This concept explores the links between neuroscience and cosmetics, offering innovative formulations for the skin.

In 2026, Gotha Cosmetics presents Neuroaura, an innovative concept combining neuroscience and cosmetics. This approach aims to redefine the perception of beauty, not just as an appearance, but as an emotional experience. Formulations are developed to act on the connections between skin, brain and emotions, promoting emotional and sensory well-being. « True beauty isn't something you apply. It's something you activate, »explains the brand

A concept focused on sensoriality

Neuroaura is based on four fundamental pillars: Texture, Performance, Actives and Concept. The first pillar, Texture, is defined by a sensorial experience. Products are designed to generate an immediate emotional response upon application, underlining the importance of sensation in beauty. The functionality of textures is both soft and comforting, transforming each application into a privileged moment. The Performance pillar translates into formulas with visible impact, incorporating carefully selected active ingredients. These react with the skin's nervous system, delivering high-performance beauty while ensuring optimal respect for the dermis. This concept delivers results that combine immediate benefits with long-term care.

Product highlights

Neuroaura's product range includes some striking innovations. Nu(de)wy Skin Juice, for example, is described as a «new skin care product".« daily dose of juice for the skin »It offers a light, full-bodied texture that blends perfectly into the face. It aims to give a fresh, natural look all day long. On the other hand, Lock At Me Sealing Mist stands out for its effectiveness in keeping makeup intact, while rooting well-being with its refreshing effect. The products are designed to optimize the daily skincare routine without compromising aesthetics.

Act Beauty unveils Jeroboam cases for perfume extracts

site-industries-cosmetiques Three rectangular black Jeroboam perfume cans with gold lettering are stacked on a red surface against a red background. The largest can is at the bottom and the smallest, labeled "30 ml", at the top.

Act Beauty presents innovative cases for perfume extracts Jeroboam, a combination of refined design, technical performance and environmental commitment.

Act Beauty recently designed the cloche boxes for the 30 ml and 100 ml bottles of Jeroboam perfume extracts. The packaging is a bespoke, single-material creation, highlighting technical performance as well as environmental responsibility. The boxes are made from 2 mm FSC grey cardboard, covered with black solution-dyed paper, both inside and out, and protected by a soft-touch lamination. This finish enhances the distinctive Jeroboam brand's visible gold grooves and gold hot stamping.

Stability and eco-responsibility at the heart of the product

A major challenge in this design was to ensure the stability of the vials during transport. Two black cardboard wedges were integrated: an upper wedge holding the bottle at cap level, and a lower wedge hugging its base to guarantee a perfect hold without tearing. This system, made entirely of cardboard, replaces EVA foam, and is in line with Act Beauty's CSR approach, without compromising product appearance, quality or protection.

" Origino is a base created around a cocktail of musks, invented by independent perfumer Vanina Muracciole. This “musk ball”, concentrated in perfume extract, marks the beginning of the creation of a new olfactory universe», »says François Hénin, founder of Jéroboam Paris. « What was supposed to be a work of olfactory exploration, a game between Vanina and me, a perfume base, would become the common thread of a brand in its own right. "

Commitment to corporate social responsibility

For over thirty years, Act Beauty has specialized in the development of customized solutions for the beauty and fashion industry, including the creation of accessories, promotional items and gift sets. Socio-environmental commitment is central to its mission, with the company awarded the EcoVadis Platinum Medal in 2021 with a score of 99%. The Act of Care program guarantees the use of certified materials, socially audited production sites and full supply chain traceability.

Brain Impact Neuroscience highlights its method for assessing the emotional effects of cosmetic products, using advanced brain imaging technologies.

At a time when sensory and emotional experiences influence consumers' purchasing decisions, Brain Impact Neuroscience is positioning itself as an expert in assessing the emotional benefits of cosmetic products. The company uses functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to provide objective, measurable evidence of the neural responses generated by products.

An in-depth analysis of emotions

Brain Impact Neuroscience's methodology provides a detailed understanding of consumers' perceptions and emotional reactions to cosmetics. Thanks to the analyses carried out, R&D teams and marketing departments can orient their choices of formulations, textures and fragrances based on precise emotional responses. At Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna, the company will be presenting use cases illustrating the measurement of emotional attachment and user well-being. These demonstrations are made possible by advanced algorithms that analyze the data collected.

By integrating brain data into a multimodal model enhanced by artificial intelligence, Brain Impact Neuroscience stands out for its innovative approach. This expertise was recognized at the‘Cosmetic 360 event in Paris, underlining the growing role of neuroscience in the evolution of the cosmetics industry.

An innovative approach to cosmetics

Founded in 2008, Brain Impact Neuroscience is a Belgian scale-up specializing in assessing the emotional effects of cosmetics and fragrances. Research shows that certain fragrances can have a lasting impact on brain activity, even after exposure. What's more, on a collective level, a scent can promote the synchronization of brain activity between several individuals sharing a similar emotional experience, particularly when this experience is negative.

This research is also being extended to other sectors, such as the agri-food and automotive industries, proving that neuroscientific insights can transform not only cosmetics but other fields in search of consumer engagement. The ability to quantify the impact of products' sensory properties, such as texture, on pleasure and well-being opens up new perspectives for R&D teams.

Shiseido presents two new technologies based on artificial intelligence, aimed at improving the biodegradability and safety assessment of cosmetic ingredients, thus contributing to the sustainability of the industry.

Shiseido recently announced the development of two artificial intelligence-based technologies designed to assess the biodegradability and identify the safety information of cosmetic ingredients. This initiative is part of the company's commitment to integrating digital transformation with its expertise in research and development, cultivated over more than a century.

Development of biodegradability assessment methods

Shiseido's first objective is to create a method for assessing the biodegradability of cosmetic ingredients. This responds to a wider industry trend to adopt environmentally-friendly materials to build a sustainable society. The company has collaborated with the National Institute of Technology and Evaluation to develop a predictive method based on the chemical structures of ingredients. Using a quantitative structure-activity relationship model (AI-QSAR), Shiseido was able to achieve a high level of predictive accuracy for biodegradability, reducing evaluation time from several months to a real-time result.

" We prioritize the selection of ingredients with reduced environmental impact »explains the company. This approach is in line with the idea of «Sustainability Innovation: Creating circular value», formulated in the company's research strategy.

Quick identification of security information

The second breakthrough involves a system capable of rapidly identifying crucial information on the safety of cosmetic products. Shiseido, which has studied safety assessment methods for over 60 years, has found that gathering critical information is often complex and time-consuming. The new system reduces individual bias by efficiently extracting relevant data, optimizing professional resources and promoting innovation: « This system improves the accuracy and reliability of safety assessments »says a member of the research team.

The results of this research will shortly be presented at the 37th annual meeting of the Japanese Society for Alternatives to Animal Experiments, where they have already received a special award from the conference president.

In the future, Shiseido intends to pursue its efforts in sustainable development and technological innovation, while strengthening collaborations with external research institutions. « We aim to create innovations that go beyond our previous experience »concludes the company.

site-industries-cosmetiques A transparent bottle of Fiabila SOS Liquid Bandage Nail Repair stands on a pink-to-white checkered background. A pink, heart-shaped bandage appears at the top right of the bottle.

Fiabila introduces SOS Liquid Bandage, an innovative nail care solution designed to seal and strengthen cracks, splits and breaks.

This nail care solution for fragile nails has been developed to seal and strengthen cracks, splits and breaks. The formula provides instant stabilization while promoting long-term nail durability.

Fill'n'Seal Tech

The innovation is based on exclusive Fill'n'Seal Tech technology, a formulation designed to instantly seal, fill and reinforce damaged areas, acting as an adhesive that's both high-performance and nail-friendly. The formula takes the form of a precision liquid film, with perfectly controlled viscosity: fluid enough to penetrate microcracks, interstices and breaks, yet thick enough to stay in place and provide lasting support.

Assets and applications

The formula contains 1.11 % active ingredients selected for their complementary strengthening and caring properties. Glycolic acid, for example, helps improve nail appearance, while marine silicon supports nail structure. MSM boosts mechanical strength, and a patented chestnut seed extract targets fragile conditions. Together, these ingredients combine repair, protection and care in a single gesture, facilitating the nail's recovery from repeated applications.

The resulting film smoothes the nail surface, improves its visual appearance and protects it from the mechanical stresses of everyday use. The claimed benefits are based on the characteristics of the formula developed by Fiabila, which must undergo specific evaluation on the finished product, in accordance with regulatory requirements.
