Many non- invasive methods are now used to characterize the cosmetic products properties and their interactions with skin and hair. COMET (Cosmetic Measurement & Testing) is the 1st scientific congress dedicated to cosmetics testing & measurement. I will take place on 8 and 9 June, in Cergy-Pontoise (France).
Physico-chemical studies, biological and clinical effects measurements, the development of new instrumental techniques … are crucial for the cosmetic sector.
COMET is the place where academic researchers, the major firms, SMEs and start-ups share knowledge and participate in scientific discussion.
The congress ambitions:
• To assemble all the industry leaders in the cosmetics sector (R&D, regulatory, marketing, communications…), academic researchers working on research topics linked to "testing & measurement" of cosmetic products
• To create links between academic research and the world of industry
• To bring scientific themes and cosmetology closer together
• To facilitate prospects development for cosmetics sector players
The 2015 topics :
• Innocuity and efficacy of ingredients and products
• Clinical measurement and instrumentation
• Skin/hair - product interaction
