Every year for the past 13 years, the UCO Bretagne Nord has gathered students from all over France around a competition whose objective is to present an innovative cosmetic (according to a defined theme).

Project submitted by Lucie Chapel, Julie Kerebel, Énora Le Clech, Blandine Mitault and Rose Moan
UCO Bretagne Nord de Guingamp, M1 Engineering of cosmetic products and processes
