Dr Alain Khaiat is one of the most respected experts working in personal care today. During his 30 years in the industry, he has been vice president of the R&D departments for Revlon, Yves Rocher and, most recently, Johnson & Johnson.
Now he runs his own consultancy company, Seers Consulting, and is also conference manager for in-cosmetics Asia 2010. Personal Care editor, Richard Scott, spoke to Dr Khaiat to find out what the 2010 conference has in store.
PC: The conference and educational areas of in-cosmetics have been very successful and a big draw for people. What areas will be covered in 2010?
AK: In Bangkok there will be a full day programme on facial skin care, and that will be sub-divided into three topics: anti-ageing, anti-acne and whitening. Last year we had one conference on whitening, covering all the whitening aspects and a workshop on cosmetic safety. This year the focus will be on facial skin care and will continue to have a session on whitening but we have extended it to include anti-acne. Antiageing was the topic of the conference two years ago, so we now have a panel on anti-ageing news and whitening news and we’re introducing a new topic of anti-acne which I think is going to be very interesting.
