As it turns out, even as many parts of the world continue to struggle with inflation, consumers are willing to pay more for high-quality personal care products with sustainable elements.

Research shows that for many people, product quality comes before cost. It’s a counterintuitive trend, but one that is shared globally.

• 66% of US consumers want high-quality personal care products, no matter the cost.

• 40% of French consumers say long-lasting beauty products are worth the price.

• Latin American consumers spend more on high-quality personal care products as incomes are rising.

• With the EU Deforestation Rule (EUDR) looming, personal care product manufacturers are searching for palm oil alternatives that deliver performance in formulations.

Join Dr. Jerrick Juliette, Technical Lead Global Quality Assurance, Shell Chemicals, as he talks about these trends, including why mood and well-being play a part. Learn how you can incorporate sustainability into your products, without sacrificing performance and leverage this consumer trend.

You don’t have to compromise performance for sustainability. Discover two new polymeric emollients that elevate sensorial experiences, naturally.

In this webinar we will cover:

• The P2 Science innovative Green Chemistry approach
• Citropol DE-4: a brand new high molecular weight liquid polymeric emollient that creates rich, luxurious textures for beauty formulations, approved for use in China
• Citropol V6: a brand new advanced natural volatile emollient blend specifically designed to replace D5, for light as water and soft as silk textures, approved for use in China
• Inspirational formulas across skin care, hair care, and color cosmetics to showcase the versatility of Citropol DE-4 and Citropol V6
• Key consumer trends driving the growth of sustainable beauty, including cleanical formulas and unique textures

The complex task for formulators lies in project management and the development of innovative consumer-focused products that align with global market requirements. Central to these challenges is the imperative to create high-performing products that prioritize sustainability throughout their entire lifecycle.

Being able to subject ingredients in formulation to multiple varying parameters from formula development to market launch, while complying with global regulations (such as MoCRA or EU regulations) and maintaining accuracy, is crucial for innovating in the evolving beauty industry.

The integration of AI technology into digitalized laboratory promises to revolutionize the landscape of cosmetic R&D. By leveraging AI algorithms, digitalized labs can analyze vast datasets with unprecedented speed and accuracy, enabling researchers to identify patterns, make correlations, and predict outcomes with higher confidence levels. In this webinar, you will understand, how R&D software solutions module driven by AI provides insight on the stability test outcome of a formula, according to its composition and objectives. These predictive capabilities not only streamline the R&D process.

Facilitating swift and secure decision-making in the formulation process, while reducing trial-and-error cycles, opens new avenues for creativity and experimentation, empowering formulators to create safe, compliant, and clean beauty products and dedicate more time to innovation and stimulating imagination.
