U'Cosmetics 2020 : et les lauréats sont ...!

It’s a tradition now. Every year, in mid-March, the U’Cosmetics student competition is held. For the 11th edition, the students worked on the theme of cosmetofood and proposed to the jury a product accompanied by its communication strategy. Among the fifteen or so competing teams, only four were distinguished. Here is the prize list.

The Philippe Collas Prize was also awarded thanks to online public votes.

The project
Break & Care, is inspired by the world of Cosmetofood and gourmet food in its form, composition and process. Imagined as the pleasure of the week, this hair care product is a solid oil bath in the form of a chocolate bar.

Its double galenic formula brings a new gesture of application and a unique experience to consumers.

For an optimal application on the hair, their products transform into a cream after humidification.

In the interest of waste reduction, the conditioners are distributed in bulk.
