On February 7th, the organizers of the student contest gathered the jury (composed of experts of the cosmetic industry and of which CosmeticOBS is a part) in order to study all the applications and to keep only 11 participants for the continuation of the adventure. After lively debates, the objective was reached. Here is the list of candidates who will defend their project on March 16th 2023 in Guingamp.
The jury has gone through the files of the 28 teams registered for the pre-selection.
Each team had the opportunity to compete in the “Innovative concept” or “Formulation innovation” category.
Remember that this year, the theme is cosmetics and sports.
Discussions went on for almost eight hours to decide between all the projects. And if some of them were unanimously approved by the jury members, others provoked lively arguments.
In general, the students provided complete files and did not lack imagination (even if some concepts were sometimes limited from a regulatory point of view, which made the jury members tick)… a reassuring observation because all these young people will be the formulators of tomorrow!
