10 NEWS Protective shield from Brazil nut
Clariant Active Ingredients and Beraca launch Ethience Protect, a new barrier function balancer for modern skin care, with proven efficacy on key consumer concerns and eco- conscious production. The innovative Brazil nut extract rebuilds and strengthens skin’s natural protective shield, leading to better hydrated, less sensitive, healthier looking skin. In vitro studies confirm that
Ethience Protect acts on the three essential levels responsible for ensuring a strong and resilient barrier function, relieving compromised skin: ■ It enhances the protective outermost lipid layer, boosting lipid metabolism, to prevent entry of external components. ■ It restores the brick-like components and mortar quality of the stratum corneum, to uphold a strong, cohesive structure. ■ It restores keratinocyte solidity and cohesion in the viable epidermis, reinforcing the skin’s structure. Ethience Protect strongly increases keratin-10. This confirms the ingredient’s ability to strengthen an important cytoskeleton
skin barrier defined by men and women in a recent survey, to ensure the active addresses issues of most concern to consumers. Dehydrated skin and irritation, including redness, came high on their lists. For the group of female mask
wearers, experiencing dryness and visible pores, Ethience Protect rehydrated the skin by 28.5% after only 7 days and by almost 52% after 35 days, counteracting the barrier damage caused by mask friction. It also proved its value in providing visible relief. Spots related to mask wearing disappeared and the skin tone was more even. For the men in the shaving study,

Beraca and its sourcing communities in the Amazon, Clariant Active Ingredients obtains polyphenols from a co-product of Brazil nut oil production. The process is fully traceable and transparent. To assess its efficacy in real life,
20th anniversary celebrated
2021 marks a milestone birthday for MSL Solution Providers. Founded in 2001, the company was established primarily for the cosmetics, personal care, and household cleansing markets, which are still at the core of its business today. Over the past 20 years, the company has grown to a team of 32 people, who own 51% of the company following its move to an employee ownership model in 2019. It is also the pioneer of
VeganSure, a testing solution, which replaces all animal-derived ingredients with plant-based or
synthetic alternatives, which is registered with The Vegan Society’s Trademark. Angela Davies, CEO and
founder of MSL Solution Providers said: “At milestone moments, it’s great to look back to see where we have come from, but just as important to keep looking ahead – that’s why we moved to an employee ownership model. I am confident our recent work will ensure a successful and independent future, in which we continue to build on our great customer offer.”
Ethience Protect was put to the test in two daily “high friction” situations known to cause and exacerbate compromised skin conditions – shaving and prolonged face mask wearing. The results highlight its potential for advancing skin barrier protection products, and moisturising and repair-focused skin care formats. Clinical studies focused on
addressing key signs of a disturbed
the team focused on dehydration and redness. The lack of hydration, closely associated with barrier damage caused by shaving, improved. After one week, Ethience Protect boosted skin moisture by 19%, and after 35 days by 28%. Redness caused by shaving was reduced by 8% thanks to Ethience Protect. Volunteers perceived a stronger improvement in terms of skin brightness and damage reduction.
Global Cosmetics Cluster is formed
Seventeen clusters and national associations for cosmetics and perfumery, have announced the official launch of Global Cosmetics Cluster, the global network representing the whole value chain of the beauty industry: including extraction of ingredients, raw materials, formulation, manufacture, packaging, finished products, distribution and logistics, engineering / machine tools, assembly lines, testing and analysis / quality control, services, research and training. The new entity incorporates 17
founder members, representing more than 3700 companies across five continents. The new association’s board is chaired by Cosmetic Valley (France) as President, with Beauty Cluster (Spain) as Treasurer, and Canadian Cosmetics Cluster as Secretary and is completed by Cosmetics Cluster UK. Marc-Antoine Jamet, President
of Cosmetic Valley, said: “Global Cosmetics Cluster was founded and launched by Cosmetic Valley in 2016 to unite our strengths and resources, to share good practice in

cosmetics, and to work on common projects. And this process will be all the more important in the context of the sanitary crisis that is bringing along new challenges, fostering a new balance of power in the cosmetics sector at global level, with new competitors, but also new opportunities. “The challenges are difficult to
overcome. We need to face them together. “Global Cosmetic Clusters” was set up to empower each of its members and make us collectively stronger. I am very tempted to quote the old Henry Ford, the iconic figure of a precedent industrial revolution who used to say: “Coming together is a beginning, keeping together is a progress, working together is a success”. Let’s keep together and deepen our cooperation!” In 2019 its members decided to
form a board and committees and work towards the goal of becoming an official organisation, which has now been fully realised. In 2020, a new branch, Global Cosmetics Cluster-Europe, was formed with the support of the COSME Programme of the EU Commission.
