98 EVENT PREVIEW
consequences of improvised formulations, including hand sanitisers found with illegal (and hazardous) ingredients. Other sessions focusing on the effect of the pandemic include Paolo Camattari, research, development and innovation manager at Lynoslife, who will delve into pandemic-related chaos in the supply chain.
A focus on sustainability As an overarching theme of the summit, several sessions will touch upon how brands and formulators can implement better sustainability practices. In one session, Chris DeArmitt, president of Phantom Plastics and also a world-class plastic materials consultant and environmental expert, will debunk the common myths surrounding plastic pollution and recycling, while highlighting other viable routes to sustainable plastics. Plastics will also be the focus of a session led
by Phil Shipton, technical director, and Suzanne Johnston, operations director, at PS Partner. They will question the reality of sustainable plastics, addressing why there is more to integrating sustainability into cosmetic products and services than simply replacing currently used plastic material with often less effective, non- plastic alternative materials. They will also explore the benefits for
cosmetic companies considering the design, manufacture, choice of material and life-cycle legacy of their products. Often, this means designs which take into account recycling limitations. Elsewhere, Francesca Morgante, market
development manager for Europe at the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), will explore the future of palm oil production and how RSPO certification can offer a viable solution to tackle the most pressing environmental and social issues such as deforestation, biodiversity loss and protection of human rights.
The role of neuroscientists Alongside sustainability, the summit programme will also delve into how mental well-being
can affect physical appearance and why developing products that deliver true holistic efficacy could be the way forward for the beauty industry. Highlights include Karl Lintner, owner
and CEO of Kal’idees, who will explain neurocosmetic approaches to anti-ageing products, and Professor Charles Spence, sensory marketing consultant in the Department of Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford, who will highlight multi- sensory communication of pheromones and neurotransmitters. Elsewhere, Dr Katerina Steventon, senior
innovation consultant at the National Biofilms Innovation Centre and also an independent skincare consultant, will discuss how skin health and beauty affect our well-being and self-esteem, and vice-versa, drawing
on research and empirical insights from her integrative clinical practice.
Being conscious of cosmetic claims As the line between cosmetics, biocides and sanitising agents becomes thinner, confusion around safety and regulations widens. The fourth and final theme of the summit will see expert speakers dig a little deeper into cosmetic claims. On the topic of cosmetics, biocides, and disinfectants, Dr Cuross Bakhtiar, chief executive of will discuss the fine line between products we have got to know very well over the last few months. Also touching upon the regulatory mayhem
due to the pandemic, classification of products and claims, Mojgan Moddaresi, cosmetics safety assessor at Personal Care Regulatory, will talk us through the damaging effects of misleading cosmetic messaging and how brands can win back integrity. The session will explore the impact of misleading advertising and how the exaggeration of product claims without proper substantiation can lead to disappointment and distrust. Whilst the virtual summit was a great success
last year, we know there is nothing quite like face- to-face events so we are absolutely delighted to announce that the In-Cosmetics Formulation Summit will return to London in its normal format. As ever, the conference programme gets under the skin of the most pressing industry trends, providing R&D professionals and formulators with high-level content and the opportunity to network with experts and peers. We can’t wait to kick start the discussion this November. For more information on this year’s
