CARING This year in COSMOPROF NORTH AMERICA, it was the advent of a beauty which cares. A beauty made with natural and safe ingredients, ensuring clean formulas for a non-toxic beauty. The quest for naturalness, which needs no introduction anymore, is now taking new forms. Going over the plant-based formulas, we are now talking about new raw materials, vegan formulas, local creations, weak energy footprints processes, or sustainable commitments. It was a pleasure to see how the Beauty industry becomes more and more responsible through various and strong initiatives. New Naturalness Local Heritage Sustainability 11
Local Heritage AIM HI EVERYDAY Back to traditional routines and local know-how, AIM HI is a Made-in-Hawaii organic and wild harvested skincare brand, governed by the two concepts of authenticity and humanity. Local sourcing and fabrication become essential values, as the clean compositions of the products. The brand proposes 4 rituals composed by 4 to 5 steps, creating a slower tempo around gestures and textures. A short range for face and body, with delicious colors and scents. www.aimhieveryday.com/ 2
HOLISTIC People are encouraged to exercise their bodies and brains, looking for global wellness and a connection to everything surrounding them. Brands adopt a more holistic approach of beauty to support them in their quest for health, physical and spiritual growing, through singular products and experiences. Beauty is addressed as a whole. This is about connecting beauty and brain preoccupations. This year, we discovered several brands talking about wellness in new ways. We identified 3 main incarnations with interesting initiatives: Wellness & Self-Care Ingestible beauty Fermented beauty 16
Wellness & Self-Care CANNABLISS Hemp oil has already taken over the beauty sphere as one of the most buzzy ingredient.

PERSONALIZED The one-fits-all concept no longer functions in the evolving Beauty industry. Consumers want to showcase their own criteria for singularity, they are looking for personalized solutions that embody tomorrow s empowerment and highlight their own persona. Beyond a simple product, they expect a true counselling service with an educational, but always desirable approach. Using artificial intelligence and data collection, the consumer must be placed at the heart of product development. Through connected devices or through a Do It Yourself approach, we spotted several brands which create Personalized Beauty. Beauty tech Beauty device DIY 21
ON-THE-GO Pragmatic, moving fast, doing several things in a second, the beauty consumer is questing for a new generation of beauty, adapted to his lifestyle. While remaining desirable, products must be imagined to meet real needs, to meet our fast paced lives, bringing true effectiveness through entertaining gestures. No matter the product category, brands are looking for time saving with innovative and desirable tools. Turnkey beauty New tools 25
