Gattefosséa supplier of specialty ingredients and formulation solutions for the health and beauty industries, and Ambiotisa research and services company specializing in the innovative evaluation of active ingredients and formulations on the skin, have pooled their scientific expertise to study the role of pro-resolving lipids in skin health, a mechanism that has been little explored until now. The result: innovative cosmetic solutions based on an integrative approach to skin ageing.

Towards a better understanding of skin aging

Long perceived as a simple consequence of the passage of time and external aggression, the

For a long time, skin aging was perceived as a simple consequence of the passage of time and external aggression. Today, it is recognized that it reveals a deep, silent imbalance that weakens the skin's natural defense and regeneration capacities. The result is the appearance of visible signs such as wrinkles, loss of firmness and sagging tissue.

The clinical manifestations of aged skin are well described. However, the molecular and cellular deregulations that occur mean that skin aging is still a poorly understood process.

To maintain skin vitality and age well, cosmetics target the synthesis of dermal extracellular matrix proteins such as collagen and elastin. According to Gattefossé and Ambiotis, considering new, more integrative approaches, capable of better reflecting the biological complexity found in the skin, will enable us to imagine new anti-aging solutions.

Bioactive lipids at the heart of resolution mechanisms

In this context, Gattefossé and Ambiotis have studied the role of pro-resolving lipids contained in the secretome, in contact with macrophages (true sentinels of the immune system) and fibroblasts (architect cells of the dermal extracellular matrix).

Gattefossé and Ambiotis have characterized and modeled the alterations in pro-resolving lipids found in aged skin, demonstrating that these modifications disrupt interactions between macrophages and dermal fibroblasts. 

The result is aberrant activation of dermal fibroblasts, which adopt a pro-inflammatory and pro-degradative phenotype characterized by increased secretion of matrix metalloproteinases.

An integrative approach to ageing for tomorrow's care

This research opens up new prospects for the design and formulation of innovative anti-aging skincare products.

"Maintaining homeostasis is a fundamental element of human physiology. Fortunately, our bodies, tissues and skin are well equipped to do just that, thanks in particular to the bioactive lipids in the resolution. These lipids play a key role in enabling the body to move from a state of disturbance to a restored state of equilibrium. Promoting increased synthesis of these lipids is tantamount to reinforcing the skin's own beneficial mechanisms, helping to prevent ageing and preserve skin vitality".said Marc Dubourdeau, CEO of Ambiotis.

"It's becoming essential to rethink cosmetic intervention in favor of new, more integrative anti-aging approaches. Skin tissue integrity can no longer be considered solely in terms of the synthesis/degradation ratio of extracellular matrix elements. Targeting pro-resolving bioactive lipids is now becoming a major lever for preserving skin health and acting effectively against ageing, as part of a global approach to healthy aging.explained Nicolas Bechetoille, head of Gattefossé's skin biology research.

Puressentiel

Puressentiel intends to " invent a purer, more natural, more effective form of healthcare. With this in mind, the B Corp-certified brand has taken a new step in transparency and quality by launching its traceability system.

"Pure Transparence" has been designed with the Communify platform and secures its information with Neurochain's blockchain technologies, enabling every professional and consumer to access, from the www.puressentiel.com website, the detailed analysis bulletin for their essential oil, simply by entering the batch number indicated on the packaging.

With this innovative system, Puressentiel guarantees complete traceability, from field to bottle, and testifies to Puressentiel's high standards of quality for its customers. The brand points out that each batch of essential oil undergoes a minimum of seven rigorous checks, carried out in-house and by independent laboratories, to validate its purity, biochemical composition and compliance with the strictest standards.

Puressentiel essential oils are 100 % pure, natural, total, non-denatured, non-reconstituted and chemotyped (HEBBD/HECT). Packaged in France, in the Drôme provençale region, they are the fruit of a rigorous selection of raw materials and a commitment to quality and eco-responsibility.

With this new traceability service, transparency is placed at the heart of the relationship with users, offering them direct access to reliable and precise data on the products they use every day.

"In a market where transparency is still too often partial and naturalness is too often claimed without proof, we have chosen to give our partners and users direct access to scientific and technical information on our essential oils, for informed consumption in complete confidence", explains Isabelle Pacchioni, founder of Laboratoire Puressentiel.

Clariant Beauty

At in-Cosmetics Global, held in Amsterdam from April 8 to 10, 2025, Clariant announced the launch of its complete portfolio of personal care products under the new name of "Clariant Beauty". 

"This launch of a broad portfolio at in-cosmetics Global demonstrates our commitment to combining innovation with sustainability, said Catherine Breffa, Global Head of Marketing at Clariant. By combining the expertise of Clariant and Lucas Meyer Cosmetics under the new name of 'Clariant Beauty', we are providing solutions that not only meet current market demands, but anticipate future beauty care needs."

Clariant Beauty supports Clariant's commitment to developing solutions that align with consumers' and brands' growing priorities for health, transparency and sustainability. As demand grows for products that promote well-being and minimize environmental impact, Clariant provides innovative ingredients and formulation concepts that help brands meet evolving market expectations and regulatory requirements.

Innovative products

For example, the "Heritage Bloom" concept presented at in-Cosmetics includes solutions for frizz control, deep nutrition and scalp care, combining expertise and ingredients from the Clariant and Lucas Meyer Cosmetics portfolios. 

At the cutting edge of skincare innovation, GlowCytocin appears to be the first ingredient to harness the benefits associated with the feeling of love.

Derived from white hyacinth bulbs, this active ingredient, backed by a natural origin index of 99.6 %, improves skin luminosity while enhancing receptiveness to a pleasant touch. Clinical studies also demonstrate a visible reduction in wrinkles and improved skin elasticity for rejuvenated skin.

To complement its skin care range, Melicica presents an innovative honey-based repair solution, derived from Australian Jelly Bush honey. This natural, Cosmos-approved 100% ingredient accelerates and optimizes the skin's natural repair process to effectively improve the appearance of scars and damaged skin, whatever the age or skin type.

"Our new active ingredients demonstrate our ability to transform nature's most powerful elements into scientifically proven skincare solutions, says Isabelle Lacasse, Head Global Marketing, Product Line Management & Formulation Lucas Meyer Cosmetics at Clariant. They represent our commitment to sustainable innovation while delivering measurable results to consumers."

The "Skin Sanctuary" concept features three targeted formulas that support the skin barrier throughout daily skincare routines. At its heart is the new Plantasens Emulsifier HP49, an oil-in-water system that displays strong moisturizing properties while leaving a soft sensation after application. Combined with Clariant's Plantasens emollients, the collection of three formulas creates a protective cocoon for the skin.

Aristoflex Sun is an advanced rheology modifier designed for modern suncare products, responding to the growing trend of "Skinification of suncare products". According to Clariant, it guarantees superior UV filter stability at an optimal level, while creating light, fresh textures ideal for everyday UV protection products. With the growing trend towards multifunctional skincare products, Aristoflex Sun offers formulators greater flexibility in creating sophisticated suncare solutions that meet the preferences of today's consumers.

This new product complements Clariant's suncare portfolio, including our recently launched, award-winning Eclipsogen Cap range. This technology offers a stable encapsulation system designed to safeguard UV filters, resulting in homogeneously dispersed particles for enhanced SPF performance. Eclipsogen Cap stands out for its sensorial profile, offering a light feel on the skin, with no white marks, which consumers appreciate in their daily sun care routine.

In the preservation category, Nipaguard SCE Vita introduces Clariant's first all-natural preservation blend for cosmetics. Built on innovative Velsan SC booster technology, this solution enables products to be formulated with a renewable carbon index of 100 %, while offering complete antimicrobial protection against micro-organisms.

Ecocert promotes manufacturers' transition to sustainability by labeling packaging

Ecocert - labels

Against a backdrop of tightening environmental regulations and heightened consumer demands for sustainability, companies are having to rethink their practices. Ecocert, through its dedicated Sustainable Materials department, offers companies solutions to meet these legal requirements, but also to enhance the value of their eco-design initiatives. The aim is to encourage the integration of recycled materials and the marketing of recyclable cosmetics packaging. Ecocert offers brands and manufacturers reference labels, guaranteeing that plastic packaging complies with international standards.

Cosmetics packaging: high expectations and a changing regulatory framework

Packaging represents up to 70 % of the total weight of a cosmetic product. Their environmental impact is therefore scrutinized by consumers, but also framed by increasingly strict regulations, such as the European PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation) legislation or the French AGEC (anti-waste law for a circular economy). Among the requirements: targets for packaging recyclability; quantified targets for recycled content in packaging; a requirement for traceability of materials used and transparency on their composition.

At the same time, consumer pressure is strong: nearly two-thirds of French people (63 %) pay close attention to product packaging when making purchases, with the main concerns being packaging practicality (an important criterion for 70 % of consumers surveyed) and environmental information (consulted by 55 % of consumers surveyed).1

Adapted Ecocert labels

In response to growing demands for sustainability, Ecocert has selected several labels that provide essential guarantees of the recyclability and traceability of recycled materials used in packaging and industrial products.

site-industries-cosmetiques Four certification logos: RecyClass recyclability, 90 % of recycled plastic by RecyClass, Global Recycled Standard by Textile Exchange and Ocean Bound Plastic Certified, each supporting Brouillon auto's commitment to sustainability.

The RecyClass Recyclability label assesses the recyclability of packaging by means of a rating (from A to C), and helps to guarantee its reintegration into recycling circuits. In particular, this label enables us to meet some of the packaging verification requirements of the Cosmos standard.

The RecyClass Recycled Plastics Traceability label promotes the use of recycled plastics in your plastic packaging, offering financial advantages (e.g. exemption from plastic tax in Spain, eco-modulation in France) and meeting PPWR requirements (target of 10 to 30 % of recycled plastics by 2030).

The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) label promotes the integration of recycled materials in industrial products, with a guaranteed minimum of 20 % of recycled materials and responsible supply chain management.

The Ocean Bound Plastic (OBP) label, for its part, recovers plastic waste collected before it reaches the oceans.

The solutions proposed by Ecocert support the major changes taking place in the cosmetics sector, in particular by encouraging the development of single-material packaging, which is more easily recyclable, as well as the elimination of over-packaging and the lightening of packaging, as part of a reinforced eco-design approach.

The labels proposed by the organization represent a strategic lever for transforming business models, accelerating the transition to a circular economy and reducing the ecological footprint of packaging.

"Cosmetics brands and manufacturers are faced with a dual requirement: to preserve the consumer experience while reducing the environmental impact of their products, particularly their packaging. Our labels support this transition by ensuring the veracity of the commitments made, and by providing reliable benchmarks for reconciling technicality and environmental responsibility, by promoting recyclability and the integration of recycled materials in packaging. Innovation in terms of recyclability is essential, but we are convinced that manufacturers must also include the development of their packaging in a global approach based on the 3Rs - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".explains Sylvana Scampini, head of Ecocert's sustainable materials department.

in Cosmetics Global Innovation Zone

On April 10, 2025, in Amsterdam, in-cosmetics Global closed its doors on its most international edition yet, with a worldwide audience of 84 % and a 16 % increase in the number of international visitors.

Some 10,879 visitors attended. "We always come to in-cosmetics Global because it's very important for the company to showcase our formulations, make contact with customers and meet potential new partners. The event is a way of presenting and exposing our company to the world".said Lucile Raffray, R&D Project Manager for Lucas Meyer Cosmetics.

Ideas that count

The brand-new Testing and Regulation Forum, in collaboration with Skinobs, offered 10 sessions exploring changing regulatory landscapes, cross-border compliance challenges and emerging testing technologies, with a focus on longevity and anti-pollution. One of the highlights of the forum was the discussion "Regulatory Panel: Navigating Global Regulatory Challenges", which brought together experts from REACH24H, the European Federation of Cosmetic Ingredients (EFfCI), the Cosmetic, Toiletry & Perfumery Association (CTPA), Potion and the Bustos Law Group.

Heather Bustos, Managing Partner of the Bustos Law Group, compared the different regulatory environments, noting that "many brands in the US are inspired by EU practices and their well-established regulations". For her part, Sanjana Balani, founder and CEO of Potion, recalled that India had "pioneered the ban on animal testing" across Asia, and positioned India as a leader in progressive industry regulation.

The highly anticipated Marketing Trends Theatre hosted 21 sessions with analysts, researchers, cosmetics scientists and marketing experts from companies such as Mintel, The Benchmarking Company, Keune Haircosmetics, Coty, Beauty Pie and many more.

Marica Kilgore, visionary founder of Beauty Pie, Bliss, Soap and Glory and FitFlop, shared her personal journey and real-world insights in an informal discussion on the cosmetics sector. She stressed the importance of building a brand with a strong "why", which led to the creation of Beauty Pie - a brand driven by the belief that consumers deserve more from their beauty products. She offered practical advice to fellow entrepreneurs, including her 80/20 rule: focus 80 % of your energy on your unique selling point and 20 % on exploring new sector opportunities.

 Emilie Hood, Beauty and Consumer Health Consultant at Euromonitor International, presented "Beauty Outlook: Innovation in Personal Care". Her data-driven analysis highlighted innovation, renovation and disruption as key growth drivers, while predicting that more targeted offers and a push for sustainability and authenticity will shape the beauty industry well beyond 2025.

With specialized ingredients typically found in dermatologists' offices and professional settings becoming more commonplace, Selma Carvalho, Medical Affairs Specialist and Medical Scientific Liaison at Galderma, moderated a roundtable discussion on the dermocosmetics market. Experts from Teoxane SA, Evolved by Nature, Medico wellness Co., Ltd. and MyMicrobiome AG joined the session to offer perspectives covering dermatology, formulation and marketing. Panelists addressed the growing gap between consumer perceptions and medical advice, as well as how consumers are increasingly becoming "asset experts", as ingredient-based beauty continues to grow.

Dr Romun Leaovitav, from Medico Wellness Co. Ltd, explained that many consumers are looking for quick fixes, often using products that are not suitable for their skin, despite the potential harmful side effects. The session coincided with the launch of the report "Exploring growth and development in dermocosmetics - where health meets beauty", which delved into the subject of the impact of ingredients on the industry.

In their presentation entitled "Fragrance Frenzy: Scents & Emotions Consumers Crave from Your Brand", Denise Herich and Jennifer Stansbury, both co-founders and partners of The Benchmarking Company, highlighted the vital role played by fragrances in the beauty and personal care sectors, revealing how they shape consumer desire, loyalty and brand attachment. They also unveiled original consumer research showing that the main reasons for using fragrance are to smell good (88 %), to enhance sensory experiences (73 %), and almost all consumers agree that fragrance affects mood (99 %).

Reminding us of the urgent need for transparency and scientific rigor in substantiating skincare claims, Stewart Long, CEO of Cutest Systems Ltd, presented a session entitled "The New Science Validating the Efficacy of Next-gen Anti-ageing Formulations in Clinical Studies", giving an overview of how clinical research drives innovation in skincare and emphasizing the importance of evidence-based claims: "People look at us and think we're making things up," he said.

Science, innovation and sustainability

Sponsored by Azelis, the expanded program of technical seminars featured 125 sessions led by experts from companies such as Sytheon, Eastman, Vantage Personal Care and Univar Solutions. A wide range of topics were covered, including new technologies, specifications and innovative concepts.

The Fragrance Zone showcased the latest technologies and innovations in fragrance creation, delivery systems and formulation processes. Exhibitors such as Carvansons and Microcaps AG presented new products. Eurofragance celebrated 35 years of olfactory innovation by inviting visitors to discover three immersive zones on its stand: Mindful Together, Empowered Together and United Together.  

Perfume house Luzi AG unveiled its latest collection, Off Fire, inspired by moments of calm and disconnection from the stress, overload and excess of everyday life. Luzi also presented The Breathing Drop, a sculptural installation inspired by one of the five new fragrance themes. Created in collaboration with artist Annabel Schneider, the work transforms fragrance into a visual and sensory experience, serving as a striking expression of the collection.

In partnership with The Green Chemist Consultancy and Ecovia Intelligence, and sponsored by AAK, the Sustainability Zone focused on recycled ingredients, life cycle assessments (LCAs), emissions, biotechnology, the circular economy and responsible sourcing. Companies such as Elementis, Fairglow, The Carbon Trust, ProvitaL, S.A., BioTara AG addressed the main environmental challenges.

The theme of sustainability ran through many elements of the show, with organizers challenging exhibitors, visitors and their own teams to operate as sustainably as possible over the three days. Laboratoires Expanscience received the Sustainable Stand Award, which recognizes exhibitors who have actively implemented environmentally-friendly measures in the design and construction of their stand. 

A pivotal year for innovations

Febea reminds us of the safety and strict regulation of cosmetic products

By
The editorial staff

Following the recently published UFC Que Choisir survey highlighting the presence of so-called "harmful" substances in cosmetic products, Febea (Fédération des entreprises de la beauté) has issued a reminder of several points concerning safety, regulations and consumer information.

The Fédération des entreprises de la beauté, the trade association for cosmetics manufacturers, reminds us that all cosmetic products sold in France and Europe undergo a rigorous safety assessment by a qualified toxicologist before they are placed on the market, in accordance with regulation (EC) n°1223/2009.

The ingredients used are authorized and, where necessary, re-evaluated by the Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS), an independent body of the European Commission. CSSC recommendations are regularly updated to incorporate the latest scientific advances.

Danger versus risk: an essential distinction

Febea stresses the importance of remembering the difference between hazard (intrinsic property of a substance) and risk (probability of an effect based on actual exposure): an ingredient may present a hazard at a high dose, but the risk to the consumer depends on the quantity actually present in the product and the way it is used.

Safety assessments systematically take this notion of risk into account, which is something that rating applications or media rankings for cosmetics cannot do.

Vigilance and research on endocrine disruptors

To date, there is no official list of substances proven to be endocrine disruptors in cosmetics, apart from the Echa list of 16 families of substances, all of which are banned in cosmetics.

Many substances are "suspected" on the basis of chemical affinities, but it is extremely complex to prove or disprove their endocrine-disrupting nature, in the absence of fully validated scientific methods to date.

The cosmetics industry is one of the few sectors to actively fund research on this subject, notably via the Pepper public-private platform, which aims to validate reliable methods for identifying endocrine disruptors and accelerate European research in this field.

Rating applications: the need for transparency

"Rating applications, such as UFC Que Choisir's, have a role to play in informing consumers. However, it is essential that they respect the recommendations of the Conseil National de la Consommation (CNC), to which UFC has actively contributed. These applications must be transparent in their criteria, fair in their presentation, and not mislead consumers with overly globalizing or anxiety-inducing judgments.says Febea. Some applications rate ingredients solely on their potential hazard, without taking into account the actual concentration in the product, which can lead to erroneous or exaggerated interpretations of the actual risk to the consumer."

The composition of cosmetic products also takes into account changes in regulations (new authorized ingredients, restricted ingredients, etc.).
It is constantly evolving according to the risks identified or the availability of new data.

A sector committed to safety and transparency

Febea would like to emphasize that cosmetics are among the most closely supervised and controlled consumer products in Europe. Continuous innovation in the sector enables us to constantly improve the safety of formulas, to reformulate where necessary, and to adapt doses as closely as possible.

Febea and Cosmetics Europe are making available an open database, listing over 29,000 ingredients used in cosmetics and providing scientifically verified information to enable consumers to make informed choices.

To make searching easier, these databases have been converted into mobile applications, Claire (French application) and Cosmile Europe (European application available in 13 languages), which are fed by the same sources and are intended to become one. 

Aimed primarily at cosmetics professionals, to provide them with accurate, reliable information on cosmetic ingredients and help them respond to consumers, these applications are free of charge and can be used by consumers.

Oil-to-milk-Deep-Cleanser_Bruno-Vassari

Founded in Barcelona in 1984, Bruno Vassari is a professional cosmetics company.

The Catalan brand completes its The Basics line with Oil to Milk Deep Cleanser, a cleansing oil specially designed to enhance the double cleansing ritual. Its innovative formula gently removes make-up, sunscreen and daily impurities without drying the skin, leaving it fresh and ready for the next stage of the routine.

In the facial care routine, double cleansing is an increasingly popular approach, removing even the smallest particles that other products fail to remove completely.

Based on the "oil dissolves oil" principle, Oil to Milk Deep Cleanser captures dirt particles when applied to dry skin. On contact with water, its oily texture transforms into a milky emulsion that rinses off easily, leaving the face clean and free of any greasy residue. What's more, its application transforms cleansing into a personal care ritual, an ideal moment to relax after a long day.

This make-up remover respects the skin's natural barrier, leaving it comfortable and moisturized. It removes make-up, even water-resistant formulas: it easily dissolves long-wearing make-up, water-resistant mascaras and sunscreens, preventing irritation. According to the Bruno Vassari brand, it's perfect for double cleansing, especially after a day of exposure to make-up and pollution. Its gentle, balanced formula adapts to sensitive, oily, dry and combination skin, offering cleansing without compromising hydration.
