Aromadays: the program

Aromadays

The market for essential oils is growing exponentially. It is therefore imperative for manufacturers to be as familiar as possible with the design, claims and prescription of products based on essential oils. The Aromadays, organized by Cosmed, in Avignon on July 4 and 5, are intended to provide all the answers on the subject to professionals in the beauty and health sector.

Reading time
~ 4 minutes

“The market for essential oils continues to grow, driven by consumers’ enthusiasm for’natural’. In 2015, there was a world production of 180,000 tons of essential oils. It is estimated that this production should more than double by 2024, with particular interest in aromatherapy,” explains Cosmed. “The design, claims and prescription of products based on essential oils are therefore major issues for manufacturers and health professionals. The Aromadays congress will provide all the modern scientific evidence to control aromatherapy claims, risk prevention and the proper use of essential oils.”

Claims in aromatherapy: modern scientific evidence

EH in the respiratory sphere: from well-being to scientific evidence - Demonstration of pharmacological activity
>Dr Nicolas Monjotin, Non-Clinical Strategy Manager, Consumer Healtcare Innovation Unit Pierre Fabre, will present an overview of recent studies on improving the well-being of many people with asthma or allergies following the use of essential oils.

EO in the management of muscle and joint pain

HE and dermocosmetic products: applications and their scientific basis
>Dominique Davenne - University Teacher - University of Rennes

HE and central nervous system: contribution of EH in EHPAD

HE and indoor air: the contradictory debate on VOCs
>On several occasions, sprays based on essential oils (air fresheners, cleansers or anti-mites) have been targeted by some mainstream media where they are considered “polluting” for interiors and “irritating” for the respiratory tract. The differences between natural VOCs (e. g. fragrance molecules in flowers) and anthropogenic VOCs (e. g. benzene) will be presented, as well as the results of a consumer study on nearly 22,000 users.
