For 12 years now, the month of January has rhymed with Cosmétagora, an event organized by the French Society of Cosmetology. For two days, the top ingredient suppliers meet to present their latest cosmetic active ingredients.
If Cosmétagora is not only an event focused on innovation but also on inspiration. For the past six years, the SFC has been organizing the Formulation Prize. An opportunity for participants to showcase their raw materials in a finished product, allowing visitors to imagine new cosmetic concepts. The theme of the 2020 edition has put the Millenials in the spotlight.
